What a beautiful place to spend some time on vacation! I stayed in Aksel's house for 4 nights with my extended family and had a great time. The house was well represented in the photos and delivers in person and then some. The open feeling of the kitchen and living area is great and there are so many large windows and doors that slide open you can really connect to the outdoors. Plenty of nice bright natural light. The heated pool is great. It took some time to come up to temperature as expected but was a nice touch as the weather was on the cool side when we visited. This is a great house for a crowd as there is plenty of room inside and out, a well stocked kitchen and grill and plenty of comfortable seating inside. There was plenty of space with our family and the detached master suite area was perfect for my in-laws to have their own privacy. The bathrooms are modern and clean and the water pressure was very nice. The view from inside the house and from the pool deck is great. Very nice neighbors next door with a quite and cute dog. The house is located in an area that is tucked away from the road so you have relatively good privacy and it is very quite. It is just a short walk (15 min.) into town. Sofia, who helped us check in speaks English very well and was very nice and helpful to get us settled in. The house was very clean and there were plenty of amenities for us in the kitchen including oil, spices, plastic wrap, sugar, salt, etc. The owner of the house, spends time here with his family so the house feels like a real home and there are plenty of kid-friendly games and books for entertainment and a great bluetooth speaker. Our 10 year old daughter had a blast playing with the legos and hands of Uno. One thing to note is that vehicle access is a bit tight into the driveway. We had a medium sized rental SUV and we had to take extra care to back in or out of the front gate to ensure we didn't hit anything. Perhaps we had a larger vehicle as we traveled together and this wouldn't be an issue with multiple smaller cars. You just need to take care if you have a larger vehicle. The town of Ericeira is wonderful. While researching for restaurants before our trip I was concerned there was not going to be much to do or see however there is a vibrant scene in the old/downtown area with many great restaurants and small shops and plenty to do even if you don't surf . The beach looked nice and large but the weather was a bit too cool for us to enjoy. We really enjoyed Funky and Tik-Tak restaurants in particular. The house is close to multiple grocery stores as well so it...
