Villa Extramuros

Overview
The Villa Extramuros was built in Arraiolos, a small city north of Evora, the Capital of Alentejo, the largest province of Portugal well known for its unspoiled beautiful nature, historical treasures and quiet lifestyle (not forgetting a rich gastronomy)
We fell in love with this region and wanted to share our passion with visitors. We welcome you in a very contemporary villa, decorated with furniture and art from the 1950’s until today, and with a parisian twist.
To say it in one word, Villa Extramuros wishes to bring you off the trodden paths.
A stay at Villa Extramuros allows the access to a park of 5 hectares of oaks and olive trees, where you can walk, run, chill-out, sleep, read, workout, have picnic, play, watch birds and other animals…
The ground is surrounded only by meadows, olive fields, oak forests, ecologically protected, where sheep flocks grow. A paradise for rabbits and birds.
The garden was kept as close as possible to nature, with just the addition of bushes and trees of local alentejan varieties.
In front of the villa, the orange & citrus orchard welcomes the guests.
The swimming-pool is located west of the villa, overlooking olive trees and fields around, with sunny exposure all along the day, and a perfect spot for sundowners.
A 15×6 m infinite pool where you really can swim, and also a small pool for children
Chill-out area, on a vast deck with daybeds, sun chairs and umbrellas
Drinks service
The spaces opened to the guests include a breakfast room, a living-room with its fireplace, the lobby with a souvenir shop and information desk, the patio with its orange trees and basin, and 3 terraces on two floors with nice views on the nature.
And of course : the swimming-pool and its deck, shower and lounge area ; the gardens, olive fields and meadows.
The Villa Extramuros offers three double rooms and two superior double rooms, all of them located on the first floor (accessible by staircases) with panoramic views from their private patio. In addition, two junior suites were created and opened during Summer 2017 in our new “cabanons”, cubic cork bungalows located in our olive grove at short distance from the main villa.
Extra bed available on request (at booking) for children from 3 to 12 years old. Little bed for babies up to 3 years old. 1 per room max.
Only in junior suites can sleep 1 couple, 1 teenager or child + 1 baby under 3 years.
The Villa can also be fully privatized for a period, in the purpose of private family meetings or business events
As an alternative to the buffets, we prepare a generous breakfast based on daily renewed dishes and «à la carte» orders. Fresh fruit juices, local or home-made pastries, house-made marmalades, locally produced honey and cheese, bread basket, cereals, eggs, various kinds of ham and cheeses, and of course, a selection of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.
The breakfast is served between 8:30 and 11 AM, either on the private room terraces, or in the patio, or inside in the eating room, at your convenience.
There is no restaurant at Villa Extramuros.
However, at lunchtime a selection of snacks and salads can be ordered, with prior notice in the morning. A picnic basket can also be prepared on request.
Served on some days during the week, dinners at the Villa require anticipated booking at reservation or at least the day before, and depend on availability. Our style : a gourmet mix of Portuguese, Mediterranean and French specialties, using the best of Alentejo’s generous products, including organic fruits and vegetables.
Fresh and hot drinks are served all along the day until 10 PM.
The Atlantic ocean and its sandy beaches are only 50mn far from the Villa by car.
Our favorite place is the beautiful and still unspoiled Litoral Alentejano, south of Troia peninsula, west of Alcacer do Sal. But the little beaches of the Arrabida coast, close to Setubal, are worth seeing too.
You can easily go there for lunch and come back to Arraiolos the same afternoon.
The Algarve is 3h from Arraiolos
Two days at least are necessary to visit the beautiful and unspoiled city of Evora, classified by the Unesco among World heritage sites since 1986.

SUGGESTIONS FOR REVIEWERS
Describe the key elements of the accommodations : decor, hospitality, value, housekeeping, setting, and/or meals. What were the highlights of your stay? A comfortable bed and elegant decor? The convenient location? The delicious breakfasts and afternoon snacks? The hospitality of the innkeepers? Extra amenities and/or advice for business or vacation travel? If in the area again, would you return? Recommend to friends?
Be both honest and fair : We feature various types of accommodation - some more luxurious than others ... Criteria of charm vary from person to person
We offer a wide selection of quality guesthouses for all tastes and budgets
It is not fair to compare a guesthouse that charges €75 a night with a nearby property that charges double or triple that rate.
Things can go wrong in the best of guesthouses, and the difference between an average place and a great one is how the innkeepers address the problem when something unexpected occurs.
Avoid hyperbole : Reviews that include only effusive praise or complete condemnation are rarely helpful or even credible.
Innkeeper responses : There are at least two sides to every story (often three!). The reviews posted on the Charming Guest Rooms website are taken seriously by innkeepers.
We reserve the right for innkeepers to respond to any review.
