Artemisia

Artemisia: Lisbon

It might be small, but this home is filled with light and furnished with style. In between the teal walls and hardwood furniture, the hosts' love for baroque details is revealed in the form of vignettes that bring the living room to life. Located in the residential São Vicente, you'll only be a short walk away from the medieval Alfama and São Vicente de Fora Monastery.

Home truths:
* You'll need to go up a flight of steep stairs to get to this home – those with limited mobility or heavy luggage take note
* The bedroom has a low slanting ceiling – if you're tall or prone to sleepwalking, you might want to look elsewhere
* Four guests can physically sleep in this home, but the last two will be sleeping on the sofa bed
* The kitchen is more of a kitchenette, and it doesn't have an oven
