Areca is around the corner from Praça da Alegria, which is a nice square to sit and have a drink, and only a block away from Avenida da Liberdade – Lisbon's prime shopping destination. This home is consistently designed with a mixture of boho luxe and elegance, which mostly comes out in the intricately corniced ceiling and the sophisticated breakfast bar. The bedrooms don't get a lot of natural light, but they're cosy and quiet, which is key to a good night's rest.
