Raquel's house is perfectly located: sitting in a quiet residential neighborhood, it allows for privacy while still being close to the main beaches and the charming town of Ericeira. The ocean is at the bottom of the road and can be admired from the many picturesque sights the house has to offer. The place feels very homey and has everything you need and more - even a whole cd library and great speakers. The house is much better than what the pictures show and has plenty of space inside and outside so that everyone is not on top of each other. Raquel is a great host, with plenty of local recommendations and great communication. We loved our stay and wish to come back next summer. Highly recommended!
