Staying with Luis was my best experience in Portugal, and the foundation for my life changing and transforming in unexpected ways. If you want to experience Portuguese magic and never leave Ericeira, this is where you need to be.
Luis is a great host, radiating kindness and going the extra mile to make sure his guests are taken care of and comfortable. He’s well connected within the local community, and fast to get you in touch with whatever you might want or need.
As far as the space, you couldn’t ask for better. A beautiful courtyard with surfboards adding to a view of the ocean down below, hammocks, and a rooftop terrace for coffee and yoga, or whatever you want to do on a rooftop. It’s lovely.
The house backs a field, open the the ocean view. Much nicer (I think) than the center - where you’re surrounded by buildings, or apartments are stacked on top of and around each other. The environment is quiet; super close to town, and far enough that you can be outside of the busy-ness.
Great communication and cleanliness, too, of course. Feels like home, and I could stay forever. My heart is full. Obrigada, Luis!
