Welcome!
QUICK INTRO:
My apartment might be of great utility to you because:
- you'll be able to use the inexpensive Lisbon public transportation in order to explore the beautiful areas of Lisbon, Belém, Cascais, Estoril and all the beaches inbetween (with large areas of sand), reaching them in 20min or less for 1,80 Eur only;
- it's located in a quiet area where you can be sure to have a great night of sleep, and then wake up and look through the window to the endless Atlantic ocean (please check pictures!);
- you'll have a dedicated host (ME - Rodrigo!) that not only will do his best for having the apartment clean (priority) and comfortable, but will also be happy to guide you before, during and after your stay in Lisbon, in all aspects you need (e.g. buying tickets, finding schedules, events, laid-back tours, great inexpensive typical portuguese restaurants near the apartment, suggestions for visiting the entire Portugal, etc). I love my country and I know a lot of non-touristic secrets.
- if you prefer to rent a car, there is free parking on the street.

The flat is in a little lovabel city between Cascais and Lissabon with beautiful beaches and good restaurants. You can reach everything on foot and the train between Cascais and Lissabon drives very often.

The apartment was amazing. It has two balconies with a great view at the ocean. The Price was really good for such a big flat. Next to the apartment are some nice bars/restaurants with traditional portuguese kitchen, the train station is only a few walking minutes away and the location of the apartment is great: in one direction 5 minutes to a beautiful beach(carcavelos) and 15 minutes in the other direction to lisbon city center!

Rodrigo is a very nice and accommodating person. When we arrived he picked us up at the airport and showed us all the things we have to know for our trip (supermarkets, the best restaurants, beaches...) In addition he explain us everything in the flat and go with us to the train station to buy the tickets. Also he gives us a guidebook for nice places around Lissbon. We take a trip with his organisation "we hate tourism tours" which he recommend and it was very funny! All in all he was a very very good host!
