Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and is on the Atlantic coast. It lies on the steep hills on the north bank of the river Tagus (Rio Tejo). Its proximity to the coast makes it an ideal choice for both sightseeing and sunbathing.
There are many wonderful areas outside Lisbon that are easy to get to and make a lovely day trip, such as Estoril and Cascais, Costa de Caparica including Arrabida and Setubal, Sintra and Mafra and the wine area of Colares.

Guestbook for Central sunlit garden apt
We had a great time and loved the apartment. Nice views and lovely oranges on the tree. Also, the weather was good to us - blue skies and sunshine for most of the stay. It was nice to be back in Lisbon - we last visited about 30 years ago!
Estella was so helpful and made us feel very welcome. We are considering a return visit next year. ( Feb2011)
We really enjoyed the two weeks. It was a fantastic apartment, end the garden was a scoop.
Estella was very kind and helpful. The neighbourhood was calm and easy going.
It couldn't have been much better. We sure want to rent your apartment next time we come to Lisbon.
Hello Fiona, our stay was very pleasant and we enjoyed the place so thanks to you. If ever friends of family wants to visit Portugal, I will refer them your place.
What a wonderful relaxing location hard to believe we were so close to all the fantastic things to see in Lisbon.
Really enjoyed staying in a real Lisbon neighbourhood, the views were amazing.
The boys really enjoyed playing in the hammock and with the scooter. I've never seen such a well equipped self catering apartment. Estella was also extremely friendly and helpful.
Great apartment - clean, tidy, well equipped & with an elevator. Good location close to metro and train station. We especially loved the very cute little garden where we could sit and enjoy the great weather in the evenings! Highly recommended. Cathy Sept 2011
