Lisboa, Lisboa
Hi there, my name is Phil and this is my home in Lisbon and yours when I'm out of town.
My home is located in Castelo, Lisbon's oldest and best preserved neighbourhood, sitting on a hilltop crowned by the medieval São Jorge Castle.
The area is sprinkled with really amazing restaurants, cafes and bars. I'll brief you on where best to book in advance of your arrival so you don't miss out on the more difficult spots to get reservations at while in town.
There is a car park and supermarket right next to property, built into the side of the hill. Plus an elevator to scale the hill if you're feeling a bit lazy on occasion.
I've fitted out the property with best of everything and I'd really appreciate it if you could treat it like you would if it was your own.
The apartment has the most stunning views over the city and gets the most incredible sunsets every evening.
Although the property is super central and close to everything you could possibly want or need, it is also a quiet oasis of sorts with a pretty serene balcony, sitting room and master bedroom overlooking the downstairs garden.
We recently stayed here for 9 nights. The location was perfect for us. Having a grocery store nearby and several restaurants we could walk to, made it convenient to tour during the day and relax in the evening. Philip was easy to converse with. Check in and out went smoothly. Thank you for a memorable stay. We hope to return some day.
Really enjoyed our stay at Phil’s place. Location is perfect, and the apartment was comfortable.
If you’re looking for a lovely home base for your stay in Lisbon, we highly recommend Phil’s place. Conveniently located in Alfama, right below São Jorge, there are numerous fabulous restaurants/cafes and a grocery store just a short walk away. The apartment is very clean, light and airy with plenty of space and the necessary amenities. Sitting up high as it does, we loved the view overlooking the garden below and the cool breezes that flowed through the apartment at the end of hot and busy days touring. Phil is an accommodating host and was very responsive to our questions. We would return in a heartbeat.
Even though it is an old apartment - understandably as it is in a great location in the old part of Lisbon - it was very comfortable. The internal furnishings are all aged but still adequate for a very relaxed lifestyle. The very small dining table in the kitchen is a wasted space as it would be impossible to have more than 1 person fit into the space to sit down. Philip, the owner, was extremely good with his responses and suggestions while we were there, but upset us after we left by trying to blame us for some “markings” on the extremely old bar. As we had only placed a wine bottle and glasses on It during our week long stay we were completely flabbergasted, and upset by his accusation, especially after looking after his apartment so well. The standard 125 Euro cleaning fee was also excessive. Overall, apart from the bitter taste left by his accusations, I would certainly recommend Philip’s apartment for its location.
Wonderful time in Lisboa. Mahalo to Phil. Some amenities could be enhanced, such as facial wash cloths. We left a gift of coasters to protect the tables. Great overall!
Phil’s place is great. A centralized location convenient to many attractions and the metro and Rossio train station. Phil’s place was very comfortable with a sizable living space, a great view out the back, easy access from the front, and right around the corner from the grocery store. A very diverse selection of restaurants and shopping within easy walking distance. We highly recommend this place.
We had an awesome stay. This is a super cool apartment - very comfortable and the host is super friendly and easy to work with. Location was just perfect for us - surrounded by amazing architecture, awesome view and many local amenities in walking distance. You can literally walk out of the door and be strolling around the old town/Alfama. Loads of restaurants and more within easy walk plus the rest of the city, tram etc is super accessible. Would absolutely recommend.
Phillip’s home was the perfect setting for our hopes of experiencing the Portuguese culture and Amazing city of Lisbon. It is very nicely updated throughout with a fantastic kitchen! Step out the front door into the heart of old Lisbon with everything you’d want just short walks away. Definitely do NOT need a car. Great view. Lovely people. We recommend it highly!
Suited our needs perfectly, a beautiful place to stay, ideally located for exploring all that Lisbon has to offer.
Phil's apartment was perfect for our 5 day stay in Lisbon. Right in the heart of the Alfama district, you are close to countless great restaurants, many different tour attractions and it was fun just to get 'lost' in the neighborhood. Phil was very responsive to all our needs. The apartment was very clean and ready for us when we got there. There is a beautiful view of the city from the living room and primary bedroom. If you are looking for a place to stay, book this place.
Our host was very accommodating and helpful with things like nearby restaurants. The listing and pictures were very accurate, which I appreciate. Getting around on foot was easy helped by the nearby lifts that save you walking up/down the hills near the castle. I would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful area. Close to the Castelo de S. Jorge. Very convenient for restaurants, grocery shopping and transportation. Owner is very organized and helpful.
This was an apartment in an older building with an amazing location and view from the floor to ceiling balcony doors! Great communication with the owner who made many great suggestions on where to eat and what to see.
Wonderful stay in the Aflama district of Lisbon. Excellent communication with owner, Phillip from the beginning. Very comfortable, spacious two bedroom flat with sweeping view of Lisbon and water. Two bathrooms. Easy access from street (just a few steps from front door) although on a very steep hill. If you have luggage, a taxi is the way to go. Great wifi, large screen television, washing machine. Extremely pleasant in every way.
