As seen on TV: FINE LIVING CHannel. Perched above the Pra�¯�¿�½a dos Restauradores, this beautifully restored 19th-century home is perfectly located in the HEART of historic Lisbon... right where you want to be... and yet part of a quiet, well-hidden neighborhood that has been much sought-after for over 500 years. Location, location, location!

All your favorite sites in the Baixa and Bairro Alto -- the Rossio, Lisbon?s open-air "restaurant row" (Rua das Portas de Santo Ant�¯�¿�½o) and the Chiado shopping district -- as well as the 12th century S�¯�¿�½o Jorge Castle, the Alfama, and a wide variety of parks, funiculars and museums are within MINUTES of this Lisbon home. (We provide customized walking maps to help you explore and enjoy the city at your leisure.)

Originally one of a string of row houses built for the servants of the neighboring palace, Casa Joaquina now boasts a series of delightful luxuries: PC with high-speed internet access; comfortable Portuguese furnishings; marble, tile and cork floors; granite countertops; dishwasher; microwave; washer and dryer; plus a BBQ on the large rooftop terrace.

The corner fruit markets and caf�¯�¿�½s tempt you to set aside your guidebook and spend a day or two enjoying Lisbon like the locals -- sipping coffee and people watching -- while the nearby public pool, reachable only via a maze of 18th century outdoor staircases, provides yet another welcome respite (?3.50/hour, closed August). A 10 minute walk takes you down to the Rossio train station, where you catch a ride to Sintra, F�¯�¿�½tima, or the medieval walled-city of �¯�¿�½bidos. Or grab our beach towels and cooler and head for the beach! Not beach weather? Visit the Gulbenkian Museum, Bel�¯�¿�½m, Oceanarium, Zoo...
