Stepping inside you’ll find two floors dedicated to bringing comfort and beauty to your stay. The elegant living and dining area set the tone for ultimate relaxation, while the bedrooms make it easy to enjoy the calming simplicity of this home.

Local guide
About Bonfim
Bonfim is a neighbourhood where you can really blend in and live like a local. It’s not at all overrun by tourists. It was formerly an industrial area, and in parts the architecture still bears traces of this. There’s a real mix of local businesses as well as trendy cafes and restaurants — a good fit for families or groups after a low-key base not too far from the centre....
