About Majuma Valley
Discover our story and philosophy
Disconnect • Breathe • Reconnect
Majuma Valley is a beautiful former olive farm reconstructed into a peaceful off grid glamping & retreat location. It's a place for people to unwind, let go of all the outside noise and find their way back to themselves. In addition, it's a place to bring people together, to dance, to laugh, to connect, to celebrate and share moments. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering, a joyful celebration, or a wedding, Majuma Valley offers the perfect setting. Here, everything is possible!
The dream of Majuma Valley began in 2017, when I, Zarah, was traveling through Portugal and fell in love with the country. I noticed so many abandoned buildings and untouched plots of land, and I began to imagine creating a place full of life and creativity that I could share with others. I started searching online and made several trips to explore properties. On the very last day of my third trip, I was shown this piece of land and I knew instantly: this was it. It wasn't a logical decision as much as a deep feeling. Back then, there was nothing here except an old ruin... and that's where my journey began.
