Our Stay in the Castle
We had a fantastic stay in our castle on the hill. It was a fun few days staying inside the castle walls and we especially loved wandering the roads toward the end of the day when the crowds had left. Rodrigo the property owner was fantastic to work with. He was on the phone with us as we drove into Obidos, even guiding us on where to park. He even assisted us in fabulous dinner reservations. The apartment is darling and so very cool. We even had a horse drawn carriage drive right underneath our open windows. Only in Obidos. There were only two of us but there is lots of room for a family to enjoy. There is a beautiful little yard that we could have spent the entire week reading and just enjoying. If you are thinking of staying here do it. You will love it. Such a unique experience.

Six stars! Great place for couple or family
If I could rate this 6 stars, I would! Located just inside the Medieval wall surrounding the town of Obidos, the apartment was easily accessible from one of the entrances. Our gracious host, Rodrigo was an excellent communicator prior to our arrival and helped us with our luggage and getting settled. He even offered to make a dinner reservation for us which we greatly appreciated. A very comfortable bed, a cozy living room / dining area with fireplace and plenty of firewood, a well equipped kitchen, lovely modern tiled, new bathroom with lots of hot water. The apartment has been lovingly maintained with all the comforts and only enhanced our experience of this not to be missed Medieval Town. Highly recommend!

Highlight of Our Trip
Staying in Óbidos was the highlight of our trip, and it should have never happened. Our scheduled VRBO did not give us entry and was unresponsive. I messaged a couple places last minute to see if anyone could help and was quickly accommodated by the incredibly gracious hosts here. This is the only VRBO I've ever stayed at that felt like a home. There are ample kitchen supplies, living plants, interesting pieces of art and decor, and a full patio garden that is obviously cared for. I had considered this place before booking but didn't because of the one bathroom. Knowing I was traveling with three teens means getting out of the house is always a challenge. I shouldn't have worried. Maybe we didn't get out quite as quickly, but it didn't matter. Right out the front door is an incredibly rich community to explore. Shops, history, and just a beautiful setting to enjoy at your leisure. I was perfectly happy to wander while the kids took all the time they wanted. I'm glad my original plans didn't work out. It turned what would have been a challenging experience into an absolute joy, and I thank the hosts and housekeeping staff whole heartedly for that.

Amazing Time In Obidos
The property was amazing. Close proximity to the castle, cute little patio, nice garden. The rooms were large. The host was amazing! I even met his wonderful mother who loaned me an umbrella. Couldn't ask for anything more of a property.

Family vacation in Obidos
The location was great. Close to castle gate for easy check in, wonderful views from back private garden and a short walk to all the shops and restaurants. Such a unique property inside the castle walls. Rodrigo was great, very responsive to all our questions.

Lovely Fairytale Stay
We loved the magical experience of stepping back in time in this 300 year old home that has been lovingly upgraded to meet the comforts of the 21st century. Tastefully blended with contemporary art while maintaining old world charm, the home meanders and winds much like the town. The backyard is a lovely place to take a day off from walking on cobblestones swaying in the hammock watching the clouds go by and gazing at the fairytale castle walls and charming neighboring homes. Rodrigo is a perfect host, communicating promptly with kindness. I wish we could have stayed longer and hope to come back.

Amazing home within a Castle
This beautiful historic home situated within the castle walls in Obidos exceeded our expectations. The home has spacious and full of old world charm and has a lovely & very scenic backyard to relax in when done exploring the old Castle town of Obidos. We would love to visit again one day.
