Saldanha is where you’ll find Lisbon’s locals strolling the cafe-lined streets and browsing the stalls at Mercado 31. And nestled between the Baroque and contemporary architecture, this home welcomes you to experience the diverse beauty of the neighbourhood and beyond. Taking inspiration from the lush and lively character of the jungle, the owners have created an immersive sanctuary – one that inspires a wonderful sense of warmth and wellbeing. From the bold prints and natural tones to the atmospheric lighting, it’s easy to feel captivated by the unique spirit of this home. Cosy evenings can be spent relaxing on the sofa or enjoying an intimate candlelit dinner whilst listening to the sound of your favourite playlist (thanks to the Bluetooth speaker). And with an efficient workspace as well as high-speed wifi, remote workers will feel right at home. Outside, days can be spent strolling through Lisbon’s largest gardens (Parque Eduardo VII is just a fifteen-minute walk away), admiring the spectacular views and discovering the city’s most talked-about galleries, restaurants and bars.

Local guide
About Lapa
The hilly neighbourhood of Lapa favours those with high ambitions. The promise of the most amazing views over the Tejo river drives many visitors into its heights, and few are ever disappointed. The area is mostly upscale (some extravagant architecture is expected), but Lapa has maintained its quiet residential feel in the centre of the city since its aristocratic days. It's the perfect spot for a late afternoon stroll with lots of variety in terms of dining and fado houses with some of the best-renowned spots spread over this tranquil area.
