Simen's apartment is spacious enough in the common areas, and has a decently equipped kitchen. There is room to co-work in the living room (the pool table has a hard cover that converts it into a large table) if that's your thing, and comfortable reading chairs for relaxing during down-time. It's a short walk (~10-12 min.) downhill to "downtown" Ericeira, which has a multitude of interesting shops, restaurants, bars, etc. Walking to the nearest beach is about 15 minutes total from the apartment.
