COMPLIMENTARY PICK UP FROM LISBON INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
CHECK-INS ARE NOT POSSIBLE ON DEC. 24, 25 AND 31 AND JAN 1ST.

Located in the heart of the medieval Moorish and Jewish neighborhood of Alfama, the apartment has a stunning water view over the Tagus estuary. Within walking distance from many of Lisbon's leading museums and monuments, the apartment is in close proximity to local grocers and supermarkets as well as neighborhood restaurants, cafes, bars as well as eclectic shops of every kind.
The apartment is in an 18th century building nestled into a steep slope of one of Lisbon’s hills, 100 meters above sea level. So while its main and private entrance is on the ground-floor, you can enjoy the stunning river view from the second floor balconies on the other side of the apartment, without having to climb any stairs.
The building is facing south, the apartment is sunny and bright all day long. You can sit in the living room and admire Lisbon’s beauty while overlooking red-tiled rooftops that are set against the blue water of the Tagus river.
The apartment is in close proximity to all types of public transportation: tram, bus and subway.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: - June 13th is Saint Anthony's day (Lisbon city holiday) and so it is a time of festivities, with traditional parties in the streets all over Lisbon until dawn, mainly in the oldest and most historical neighborhoods. The neighborhood of Alfama (where the apartment is) is one of the main sites of these festivities, with music, dancing, food, and hundreds of people in the streets. These festivities usually take place over a whole week, but mostly on the weekends before and after the 13th, and also on the night of the 12th to 13th of June. Our apartment has double-glazed windows and heavy wooden shutters, but on these days it will be noisier than usual. However, this is a very special time in Lisbon and it is worth joining the party :-).
- We prepare the house with all our care, attention to detail and tailored to our guests. We ask you to look after it with the same care and in the best way possible.
- Respect the neighbours not making too much noise, especially after 10 pm.
- We can be flexible with check-in and check-out timings as long as they do not conflict with other reservations.
- When making your reservation for more than two guests, please note that there is a small extra payment. This will be visible in the breakdown of the total price of the reservation.
- Casa d'Alfama is duly registered in the Tourism Authority of Portugal (#986/AL) and respects Portuguese laws and regulations.

We had a great stay at this apartment in Alfama. The apartment was equipped with everything we needed, we would have drinks most nights looking out the window and enjoying the breeze. The location was perfect and Ana answered any questions we had very promptly. Nadina, the driver she arranged for us, was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed our vacation
This was a fantastic place! We really loved it, it was comfortable and a brilliant location. The toys they put together for our kids were so thoughtful and the communication throughout was helpful and informative.
Only thing that would improve the apartment is air conditioning but there were lots of fans which meant it was cool enough!
The property has a different layout, but they utilized the space so well. We were very comfortable. We loved the view of the Tagus out the windows. The apartment was clean as well as the bathroom -but the tub is not friendlynif you are prone to slipping-like me! I will say, our 6 year old locked us out of our apartment on accident and the reaponse from our hosts was immediate very laid back. There were plenty of grocery shops nearby and cafes and they have a binder in the apartment to assist you in finding shops and parks and restaurants! Be prepared to walk! The transportation around the apartment was extremely reliable and efficient, but we found we only used it for our day trips-we mainly walked everywhere! We loved it. We found we had more than we needed within the apartment for cooking and hanging out there on our lazy days. So thankful to have such a nice property to have called home!
I was thrilled by the amazing view, location and access to all historial places and restaurants. The apartment has everything to have a great meal and to enjoy vacations in a peaceful atmosphere.
Paulo was fantastic! From the moment we booked, he was so communicative, sharing lots of helpful suggestions. He picked us up in person and gave us the neighborhood highlights! Great old town location!
Lovely, quiet, and spacious apartment in a wonderfully walkable location with easy access to transit. A little off the tourist trail, which we appreciated, while still being close to amenities and activities. The apartment came fully furnished with everything you need to settle in (we stayed for two weeks; cooked, cleaned, did laundry). Artistic and quirky, yet still comfortable with small children-- feels lived in. Our stay was in January, but the apartment was light and airy, and kept warm with radiators, as well as lots of blankets on the beds and couches, and other cozy touches. The host (Paulo) was incredibly warm and welcoming. He was easy to communicate with even in English and very responsive/responsible. He provided great guidance and recommendations too!
I cannot say enough about how wonderful an experience it was staying here. The apartment is wonderful, the location great, and we were made to feel so welcome and cared for on our first visit to Portugal. This is really a lovely place.
Very nice apartment near, restaurants, shopping and sites. Pedro provided a great welcome experience with useful information to make our stay even more relaxing and enjoyable.
From beginning to end, we could not have been happier with the host, the place, the location, and the real sense of daily life in Alfama. So many nice experiences. Perfect in every way.
We had a lovely stay, the appartement is spacious and comes equiped with everything you might need. Also for our baby all the neccities were there, amd then some. We would certaintly go back.
Beautifully restored and maintained apartment in Alfama. Communication and assistance from Bruno and his family all excellent. Great area with numerous good restaurants and small shops. Highly recommended.
The apartment has the perfect location to discover Lisbon. We were picked up from the airport in the late evening. Thanks again Paulo! The apartment is huge and arranged in a very individual way: pictures and art figures as well as the nice furniture.Only the bathroom would need a renovation.The dishwasher was broken.Besides this we enjoyed our stay a lot!
We stayed for 4 nights in this Alfama district of Lisbon. It is the oldest part of town and for us, has the most charming character. For those looking for a place for a family of four, we enjoyed the apartment and its proximity to many sites. Paulo was a kind host and met us at check-in. Communication is excellent both pre and post arrival- thank you Paulo!!The apartment has an amazing view and a kitchen outfitted with all necessities. We appreciated returning here after all the daily uphill walking that is Alfama!My teens loved that we didn’t have a ‘hotel’ experience in Lisbon, and this rental was great! I would recommend it.
This was our first trip to Lisbon, and it simply could not have been more perfect. Our charming hosts provided us with every detail needed for a relaxing, enjoyable week. Honestly, the photos and description of this neighborhood don't do it justice. See it for yourself!
This was our first visit to Lisbon but the Alfama seemed the most interesting from our research. This apartment was ideally suited for walking “tours”. The bakery is just down the street, the restaurants near the Musee da Faro we’re excellent, and the view of the river was extraordinary. The owner and her team were very helpful and spoke excellent English, overcoming our terrible Portuguese!
Great position and lovely views. Only drawback was main bedroom had no external window. The single bedroom had the outlook.
Our host Cristina was very helpful and provided much information and assistance.
Without a doubt, best place to stay with small children, ages 2 and 4. Fully equiped, felt like home with cooking essentials, high chair, potty, crib, extra beds, toys and childrens books galore. Small private second bedroom for children. Beautiful view of the river. Tons of light and open space. In the center of Alfama, close to great city views, restaurants, trams, fado. We loved our stay and will return!
The apartment is wonderful with little touches that matter when traveling with littles (toys, laundry detergent, excessive towels). The location is incredible with Fado outside your window. The garbage cans, which are directly outside the window, are emptied in the middle of the night (every night), which as many reviews suggest can be noisy.
