Marvao Eco-Villa with private swimming pool and an amazing panoramic view

Rustic setting just a 5 minute drive to the hilltop walled town and castle of Marvao. Wonderful view of sunsets.

Super location. Very peaceful. Comfortable accomodation. Kitchen is small and would benefit from some more items e.g pans, grater, tin opener etc.

No frills but so restful and relaxing.

The location of the property is superb - it is a 25 minute walk (uphill) to Marvão, and a 10 minute drive to Castelo de Vide. Portagem, which is less than 5 minutes away, also has plenty of amenities. The Eco Villa was spotlessly clean when we arrived. Irene's directions were excellent and we had no problem finding it. We had been concerned about the lack of aircon, especially as we were travelling with our four-year-old daughter. However, the interior was pleasantly cool the whole time, even though it was 35 degrees outside. We didn't feel we needed aircon. The views are spectacular, especially when enjoyed from the pool. Even though the eco villa is close to the main property, it is completely private and felt very secluded and tranquil. Irene is a great host. She was in regular contact with us both before we arrived and whilst we were staying. We were very well looked after. We travel to the Marvão region often, and we are certain that we will return to Irene's property again soon.

We spent a week in a lovely appartment in the main house with its big, sunshaded terrace overlooking the stunningly beautiful Vale de Rodao. Our hosts, who live on the premises, made us feel very welcome. The Quinta de Marvao is just minutes away by car from Marvao itself and ideally situated to explore the archaic villages and little towns in the area, and there are a number of hiking paths to discover on foot. However, we often could not tear ourselves away from the ever changing, amazing light in the valley playing on the rocks, the oaks and olive trees and just sat on the terrace watching birds, listening to nature's sounds over a bottle of Alentejo wine. We greatly enjoyed the stay and can highly recommend it.

The house was wonderful and beautifully located. The pictures don't show the amazing landscape and surroundings. Very warm and confortable. All rooms have great view to the valley which is perfect when there are 2 couples. Irene and Jorge the owners were very helpful and friendly all the time we were there. I strongly recommend this place for some quality days of rest!

The Eco-villa is just wonderful! The house is beautiful, the view is breathtaking, the peace and the silence are unique! The swimming pool is excellent, and the hosts are so nice! We loved each moment we spent there and we just wish we could stay more days!
