We’ve started as hosts at Casa Fortunato Lisboa in October 2018 until December 2020. What an amazing experience we had!!!

We opened the door of our Casa (our souls!) to the public, we won the Mr. & Mrs. Smith award for Best Smith Hotel (which was overwhelming) and then, just months later, Coronavirus crept in to Portugal and life changed beyond all recognition…we swung the doors of CFL shut and waited.

Casa Fortunato Lisboa was designed with only nine rooms.

We only had nine bedrooms which we consider to be very fortuitous, this was because ‘nine’ is a sacred number, not only does it represent wisdom but it is also the symbol of completion and fulfilment. Nine is thought to be a number of great magic and power, and we believe that Casa Fortunato echoes this through the unique and individual atmosphere that she radiates.
