A lovely Stay in a Historic City Within the Castle Walls
Maria, our host, was great and very helpful with check-in instructions and helpful tips on what to do in the region. Obidos is absolutely lovely - especially in the evenings and mornings - be sure to walk the castle walls and enjoy the nice restaurants. The region is gorgeous - we can highly recommend a boat trip from Peniche to the island of Berlengas (bird sanctuary and a 14th century fort). Thank you Maria!
This adorable home is in an incredible location, but the best part of our stay was the friendly, knowledgeable host, Maria. From our initial interaction and throughout our 4 night stay, Maria provided information that enhanced our trip. She provided recommendations and tips that surpassed any guidebook. Obidos is a magical village, our stay was ideal.
The place is lovely. It was so charming and a great location to do some day trips as well. Maria is a wonderful host and can help you with whatever you might need.
Highly recommend!!
Family home located within the walls. If you have a car, itâs better to park near the front gate rather than along the side wall. Walk up to castle walls with luggage was strenuous. Leaving thru the front gate was much easier. Home was a perfect location. Obidos was a beautiful little town within drives to Fatima and Nazare. Host was wonderful. Furnishings are quaint which add to the charm of the home. Nice to have a washer. Home located near bakeries, restaurants and small groceries. We never cooked so didnât investigate kitchen supplies. Great for families or couples.
Cozy & comfortable home in a magical place - inside the walls of Obidos. The home is filled with personal touches & Maria is an amazing host! I hope to return some day!
The property is well placed to explore Lazare, Coimbra, Tomar etc. Found it generally quiet evenings and night. Maria was open and helpful. Plenty of parking at only short distances away. Highly recommend but with one warning; the range hood extends over half the sink snd is at a hight that that makes a head injury almost inevitable.
Its a wonderful home inside the castle walls of Obidos. Maria is the perfect Host. There if you need her, and a so nice. If you rent a car park in the free lot across from the castle. Do not let the GPS take you inside the castle walls! Repeat!!. Highly recommend!.
Maria was a wonderful host and the apartment was perfect for the five of us, very nice bedding, furniture and full kitchen. The apartment was well located for easy access to the beautiful town of Obidos.
Sweet flat in an older house full of light and quiet. Away from main hustle & bustle. Highly recommended. Great place to explore and saunter through the walled town.
Obidos is a special place and Maria's house is too. Maria and her sister Fatima were both very helpful from start to finish. The house location is perfect. Tip,.when visiting Obidos say hi to all of the locals and speaking a little Portuguese is appreciated as well. I can see why so many people want to visit Obidos and this house. Great stay.
We are a family of 4 from Australia who stayed in the beautiful house for 7 nights. Obidos is magical, Maria is very helpful and the house is set up perfectly. Elle
We had such a wonderful stay in Obidos, truly a gem in Portugal. Maria and her family (and friends!) were so much fun to meet and were so helpful with parking the car, giving advice for restaurants and telling us about places to go in Portugal. We would come back to visit again any time of year. And the house was so comfortable and quiet and beautifully appointed. Obregada!
The apartment was very pretty, comfortable and clean with lots of space for luggage etc. The location was superb, very close to restaurants but quiet since it was not on one of the very busy tourist streets. Maria was very helpful, meeting us and leading us to where to park, and then to the apartment.
Only one small suggestion - while the kitchen was very well equipped, we would suggest a french press to have when there are multiple coffee drinkers.
We had a wonderful time staying at Mariaâs place in Obidos. Itâs a cozy, updated house that we learned has been in the family for many years. Itâs perfectly located inside the walls of the city providing access to this historic place. Maria communicated with us from the start and met us outside the city walls. She showed us where to park and then drove us through the narrow and steep streets to the house. She even had a bottle of wine waiting for us upon arrival. Would definitely stay here again.
