Positively brimming with bright colours, eclectic decor and playful patterns, this vibrant pad evokes a groovy sixties vibe that really caught our eye. Its high ceilings and huge floor-to-ceiling windows create a bright and open living space that's perfectly suited to larger groups looking to explore central Lisbon. Filled with bold art and design choices – we're looking at the hippopotamus in the third bedroom while writing this – it's got heart and soul that's hard-to-come-by. Whether you're playing games on the flower petal coffee table, fixing your hair in the chic bubble mirror or gathering around the grand dining table for a feast, you'll instantly feel the charm of this unique home. Aside from the punchy interiors, we loved the location in attraction-packed Cais do Sodré. It's a ten-minute walk from Praça do Comércio and only twenty minutes (on foot) from the historic Alfama district.
