Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Located in family-friendly Alvalade, this apartment is the perfect base for a Portuguese getaway with your nearest and dearest. While the single bedroom is a little on the small side, it’s still got everything needed for a comfortable night’s sleep – although the curtains here don’t fully block out the sunlight, so expect the morning sun to wake you up. When you do hop out of bed, you can enjoy a spot of retail therapy at nearby Avenida da Igreja or if you’re peckish, there’s a whole host of eateries on your doorstep.

Home truths

    Parking in Lisbon can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible.

    Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.

    This apartment overlooks neighbouring homes. The views aren't the most inspiring and it lacks a little privacy.

    The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.

    This host requires your check-in to be within 3-5 days from when the last booking ends. If you are unsure if your dates will work or for help finding alternatives, please contact our Matchmaking Team.

Local guide


About Alvalade

If you didn’t know Alvalade before, you’ll definitely leave raving about it. Technically on the outskirts of Lisbon, this district is a hidden gem away from the bustling centre. It’s away from the seven hills, so it’s blissfully flat – you can explore by bike or on foot without the cardio workout of the rest of the city. It’s also residential, so you get that neighbourhood feel – think families...
