I really recommend staying at Luis’ place if you want to get a feel of local community in Ericeira. The house is located in a quiet area but walking distance to anything you may need whilst you’re there. Luis is very helpful with transport and tips about surfing, the surroundings and will entertain you with a friendly chat if that’s what you’re after. Bare in mind that you’re sharing a space in a house together with others, but the room is very convenient if you need privacy as well. In general - a great and comfortable spot.
