Santos Azul

This authentic azulejo-tiled building has been thoughtfully restored to create a contemporary oasis for you and your loved ones. Located in the vibrant Santos neighbourhood, this apartment offers an idyllic base for those looking to soak up the architectural delights and culinary highlights of the city.

With a bold blue colour scheme that echoes the decorative tiles that adorn the façade of your 18th-century building and a host of natural and design-focused furnishings, this apartment offers a stylish sanctuary to return home to after a day perusing the modern works at The National Museum of Contemporary Art and the art-gallery-cum-bookstore Zé dos Bois. Culturally satiated, return home for sundowners in the wicker armchairs, reclining under the ambient lamps to plan the night’s itinerary. There’s a sleek six-seater table should you want to dine in, or head out to any one of the many eclectic restaurants within walking distance. For informal eats, Lisbon's Time Out Market hosts local vendors serving up street food delicacies. Alternatively, seek out modernist seafood dishes down at the industrial riverside warehouse.
