Amazing Property! Great Host!
We visited as a family of 4 (including a 16 year old and a 13 year old) in mid-August 2019. The property is truly amazing with everything you could ever need. The bedrooms are large, there are two bathrooms (one en-suite), all with access to a balcony. The place was really clean and well presented. We didn’t cook at all but the kitchen was fully stocked with pans, utensils etc. A really nice touch was the nespresso style coffee machine with pods supplied - we used this every morning. Ana was a really good host - very friendly and easy to get along with. As we stayed for 11 nights the place was fully cleaned half way through; all bedding and towels were replaced. Ana also helped us with an idea for parking in Sintra. About 20m from the apartment is an enclosure containing a communal pool area and play park (plus WC’s). Everything was clean and well maintained. Access is by key holder only and a pass which is checked by the pool lifeguard. Despite being the height of season the pool was never busy - mostly young families.
The centre of town is a 5-10min walk downhill (15 mins return uphill). Ericeira is a beautiful place busy with locals, surfers and visiting family groups. There are lots of bars and restaurants to choose from, mostly independents, that offer a range of cuisines alongside Portuguese. We also visited the funfair on the front most evenings for the kids to bomb around on the bumper cars!
The beaches are all lovely and we hired sun beds at Praia de Pescadores (the sheltered beach in the centre). We also visited Praia Ribeira d’Ilhas in car and watched the surfers whilst sunbathing.
We had a great time and if we visit this part of the world again we would look to rent this property again. Thanks Ana!
