Stunning river view Portuguese Soul XXL Terrace in picturesque Alfama, sleeps 20
Exquisite, charming building dating back hundreds of years, recently renovated.
Situated in the heart of Lisbon’s historic center—Alfama, the city’s most picturesque and authentic neighborhood—this apartment places you just steps away from some of Lisbon’s most famous monuments.
This magnificent property comprises four separate apartments in the same building, rented together. It is spread across four floors, with a modern open interior staircase (with 2 entrances).
It offers an interior patio and two terraces with the most superb view over the Tagus River and Alfama’s iconic rooftops.
It can host up to 20 people.
This premium space offers exceptional comfort, elegant golden accents, and abundant natural sunlight. One of the building’s defining features is its remarkable brightness—thanks to large windows and classic iron balconies, sunlight pours in from every angle throughout the day
This house is a haven for those who are passionate about painting, poetry, and the arts in all their forms. As you explore the space, you'll encounter stunning oil paintings brought to life on a variety of surfaces — from traditional canvases to furniture, walls, and more. Adding to the magic, the house is beautifully adorned with hand-painted verses from beloved Portuguese poets, creating a truly immersive artistic experience.
Bedding and towels are provided, as well as shampoo, shower gel, hand soap, and body lotion. Additional amenities include Wi-Fi, cable TV, air conditioning, a dishwasher, washer and dryer, coffee machine, toaster, and hair dryer.
A stay here feels like traveling back in time. At Portuguese Soul Alfama, you will be immersed in an awe-inspiring environment with golden paintings and walls, intricately decorated ceilings, vintage furniture, traditional Portuguese tiles, expressive oil paintings and a multitude of striking crystal chandeliers.
Portuguese Soul Alfama is the perfect place to nourish both your mind and soul.
The property consists of four apartments (I, II, III, and IV) available for individual rental (with capacities of 10, 6, 2, and 2 people, respectively) or as a whole (accommodating up to 20 people). If your desired dates are unavailable, please check the availability of our other apartments. It is possible to combine two or more apartments to accommodate a larger group.
This apartment is not suitable for people with mobility restrictions or young children.
Since the apartment is located in a historic area, cars are not permitted on the narrow street. However, the nearest point for a taxi or Uber drop-off (in front of the Fado Museum) is just a 3-minute walk away.
For parking, you can park near the Fado Museum (free at night), which is only a 3-minute walk from the apartment. Alternatively, there is parking available at Campo das Cebolas, about a 10-minute walk away. In our opinion, a car won’t be necessary, as many attractions are within walking distance.
We offer self check-in, with entry codes sent to guests prior to arrival. Early check-in and late check-out are available upon request, subject to availability, at no extra cost.
The apartment is equipped with a home alarm system and a safe box for your convenience.
NOTE: Attention for June! Lisbon is known for its June street parties and Alfama is the heart of those festivities. Throughout old Lisbon, there are "arraiais" (old word for open-air party), where local restaurants set up shop on the streets and barbecue and grill sardines, etc. and people go drinking and dancing. On the nights of the 9th, 12th 23rd and 27th of June, the narrow streets become extremely crowded with local parties. Although it is a great atmosphere, it is very loud well into the night. If you want peace in June, Alfama is not the indicated neighborhood for you. However, if you are looking to be in the center of the action, then there is, without a doubt, no better place.

I highly recommend this property. There are 4 apartments in the same building and it was perfect for the 15 of us. Two of the apartments are one bedroom and one bathroom and they have very few stairs. My 78 year old mother stayed in one of them. The apartments were exactly as described, nicely furnished and clean. The host was excellent and answered all my emails promptly. Check in was a breeze and we loved Lisbon. We will definitely be returning!

About the host
Hosted by Ana Nunes
Hi, I’m Ana! I have a deep love for Lisbon and a passion for painting. Together with my sister, Sónia, we transform accommodations into spaces rich in history and tradition, that tell visitors stories of our country. We love working with recycled antique furniture and Portuguese handicrafts, and we're especially passionate about incorporating artwork and thoughtful details. The result? Spaces that nourish both the mind and soul.
Why they chose this property
Alfama is the heart of Lisbon, a beautiful maze of narrow streets, colorful houses, and breathtaking views. As one of the city’s oldest and most charming neighborhoods, it’s filled with vibrant history and tradition. Wandering through Alfama feels like stepping back in time, with its cobblestone alleys, hanging laundry, and the sounds of Fado music echoing from cozy taverns. From the hilltops, you can enjoy stunning views of the Tagus River, while every corner reveals hidden gems, from quaint cafes to ancient churches.
What makes this property unique
Great location in Alfama Fantastic river view Two terraces and an interior patio Exquisite golden decoration and paintings Premium features and high standard of comfort Plenty of natural light Capacity
The restoration of historic houses is our passion. With a deep sense of Portuguese identity, we draw inspiration from our country’s history, traditions, and rich cultural heritage. These elements are at the heart of what we call the "Portuguese Soul." We love rolling up our sleeves and getting to work, whether it’s demolishing, rebuilding, or decorating. The entire process of breathing new life into old spaces fills us with a sense of purpose and pride.
