About Coliving The Valley

Coliving The VALLEY is set in the heart of Portugal's countryside in Rôge, Vale de Cambra (Aveiro), nestled within the Magic Valley and the Magic Mountains. It offers private bedrooms, a 24/7 coworking wooden cabin, lush gardens with panoramic valley views, and a swimming pool — all with WiFi exceeding 500 Mbps. Under the banner "We welcome citizens of the world," it caters to digital nomads and remote workers seeking a community-focused, longer-stay experience.

Origin story

The website does not share a specific founding story. What is known is that the property was renovated to the highest design standards in 2023, and the space was conceived in response to the rise of digital nomadism — with the belief that coliving is an opportunity to redefine this lifestyle beyond mere accommodation, creating spaces where everyone feels a true sense of belonging.

Community philosophy

At the core of The VALLEY's ethos is a strong sense of community. The primary objective is to forge meaningful connections, encourage collaboration, and cultivate a thriving community atmosphere among residents. The space is committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment that resonates with people from all walks of life.

The VALLEY believes that coliving is not just about sharing physical spaces, but about fostering genuine connections and embracing a shared ethos of living. The team curates spaces and activities — from private concerts and barbecues to culinary challenges and outdoor adventures — that epitomize this spirit.

Time is seen as an essential part of the experience: meaningful stays are not created in a few days, but through continuity, rhythm, and connection. For this reason, pricing is structured to reward longer stays, encouraging residents to settle in, develop a rhythm, and experience a more intentional way of living and working.
