Villa Extramuros is a superb contemporary-style hotel in Arraiolos, Portugal. It was designed by Vora Arquitectura with a central courtyard as the core element of the construction. Surrounding this special area is the reception, kitchen and all common spaces, including the living and dining areas.
The upper floor contains four lovely guest rooms, accessible via an exterior staircase. Whenever the indoor courtyard is no longer enough, guests can get closer to nature by strolling around in the beautiful olive grove that surrounds the villa. This is a perfect spot for people looking for a little privacy and romance.
