Where to stay in Arbo
Arbo is a small town, so your best bet is to stay close to the town centre, where you can walk to the market and the local bars with ease. Town Centre puts you right in the middle of things without needing a car for every errand.
If you prefer a bit more comfort or flexibility, the nearby town of Salvaterra de Miño has more accommodation options and is just a short drive away. You could also look across the border, as the Portuguese town of Monção is minutes from Arbo and often has good value stays.

Street markets in Arbo
The Arbo Weekly Market is the town's main recurring market, held outdoors every week. Stalls cover fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, flowers and plants, clothing, and footwear, making it a practical stop for locals and visitors picking up supplies.
The ArboNadal Christmas Market brings a different character to Arbo's market calendar, focusing on handicrafts and antiques rather than everyday produce. Running on a weekly basis during the Christmas season, it is a good opportunity to find locally made gifts and one-off vintage pieces. Nearby Salvaterra de Miño and Crecente also hold seasonal and weekly markets worth combining with a trip to the area.
