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!

Outstanding Stay

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.

Explore the Obidos area

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.

Home away from home

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!.

Amazing Obidos

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.

Obidos

Lovely, quaint apartment on a very quiet cobblestone alley. The owner, Maria, was very nice and friendly. The location is perfect. The apartment is old but what else would you expect in this ancient walled city. Had a great time in Obidos and short trips to nearby towns of Nazaré and Peniche.

Wonderful town, wonderful house, wonderful people!

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!

Great Stay in Obidos

We had a wonderful time staying at Maria’s place in Obidos. It’s a cozy, updated house that we learned has been in the family for many years. It’s 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.

Beautiful Stay

Casa Maria is a five star property within the walls of charming Obidos. Three bedrooms, 2 baths, and a spacious living areas means you and your family will have an excellent holiday. The apartment is beautifully appointed and super comfortable, and we really appreciate that it is dog friendly. The location is right in the center of the walled city, close to good restaurants (especially right next door), good shops, and romantic strolls. Park your car in the public lot just outside the main gate and the apartment is a mere five minute walk. For authentic European charm and an upscale rental property, you can’t beat Casa Maria. And Maria is gracious, helpful, responsive, and very kind.

Two week stay in Obidos

Positives: Very interesting environment. Lots of history and culture. Lots to see. Good, and some very good, restaurants. Some shopping. Good base for exploration of surrounding areas and communities. Property was perfectly located. Negatives: Obidos is very busy. Large crowds and lots of tourists, essentially every day. Morning until night. Property standard was OK. Communication with the host was rapid and efficient some times, but other times it was non existent. Overall rating: OK - good

"Obidos is a great place ...

"Obidos is a great place to chill-out and a beautiful place to run away of the daily routines. Carmo's house is gorgeous, clean and very confortable and it's right in the center of Obidos, one step away of the main street. A beautiful place to stay. Maria do Carmo was absolutely thoughtful and deeply concerned about our confort, she give us a little, but complete, list of restaurants and beaches that really matters in this region and we love them all. Carmo is a pretty cool host, she's very friendly and nice. We don't forget the beautiful bottle of red wine as so the goods in the fridge for our breakfast. We didn't expect that and it was a nice toutch of the host. We will come back one day for shure."

Fairy Tale Stay.

We were so fortunate to have found Maria and her picture perfect apartment in the medieval walled town of Obidos, Portugal. We were comfortable and taken in by the lovely home and natural setting. We were taken back in time yet had all the modern conveniences. The location on an out of the way side street was a quiet haven , yet only a few minutes walk from all the shops and restaurants. Maria was so helpful getting us settled, and our three days spent there stroll seem like a dream. Narrow, cobblestone streets, a medieval castle and a walk around the entire town from the top of the ancient wall are part of your everyday stay. Flowers grow all over the ancient walls. Do not hesitate to spend time in her beautiful home.

Dear Maria and Jose, Tha...

Dear Maria and Jose, Thank you very much for great opportunity to live in medieval appartment in Obidos! Please, let me know how old is your house? 2 or 5 hundred years old? There are expensive restaurants in Obidos, but we didn't need them, the appartment has all the stuff to live, cook and have dinner in romantic atmosphere. Outside was crowds of tourist but we lived in calm and relaxation. There is very good collection of DVD and books, we watched a lot of good movies in English and I was very sad that I don't read in Portuguese. Obidos is charming town and has a lot of beach nearby. We like it very much!

We would recommend Maria's place and would recommend staying in Obidos.

Maria was a great host. She communicated from the beginning of the booking until the end. She arranged to meet us at a local bank and escort us to the apartment and show us where to park "outside" the wall. Maria was helpful in giving advice for places to go….clearly she loves Obidos and the surrounding area. The apartment is nice and a bit quirky. Lovely touches, flowers and a bottle of wine to greet us. I must add that we were a little disappointed when the nice outside sitting area was not as shown in the listing. Maria explained that it was under construction, but to us, it looked as if it had been under construction for a while. We would recommend Maria's place and would recommend staying in Obidos.

Cool experience but tough for parking close by

Four adults traveled and stayed. Overall, we enjoyed our stay as it was cool to stay in a castle and walk around it. Plenty of restaurants and shops within the castle. Owner was very attentive and lives right next-door to the house. As expected, the roads were narrow and didn’t allow us to park close to the house. Rather we parked behind a bank across the street. If anyone struggles with walking especially on cobblestones, this would not be a good place to stay for you. Also, we stayed while Portugal was having a heat wave (temps over 100F). It was muggy and tough to sleep through the hot temperatures without air-conditioning. I imagine that on a day with temps in the 80s, this would not be an issue.

Cozy and comfortable apartment in Obidos

Lovely apartment in medieval Obidos. Very quaint and comfortable. The property owner was very helpful, guiding us to the apartment, and help directing us out. The apartment has everything you need! Obidos is a beautiful city with its charm still intact. It really is a story book picture right out of the Middle Ages. That said, driving into the city is not for the faint of heart. The streets (if you can call them that) are extremely narrow better fit for donkey cart and not the family roadster. Do not rent a SUV and expect to drive to the front door (we rented subcompact and it was close at times). You are best off parking just outside the city in one of the parking lots. Maria was gracious enough to have a colleague meet us at the local bank and lead us to the house. Again, the entrance into Obidos are very, very narrow. But once you’re in, it is beautiful place to wonder around for hours, and enjoy the sights.
