Had a lovely time at the villa, weather was great and the local beach was beautiful and perfect for our kids. Ericiera town was also very nice, has some great local restaurants amd bars to enjoy in the evening. Look forward to returning again next year !

Awesome Villa in beautiful location This was our second trip to Portugal and this time we decided to stay on the west coast as opposed to the Algarve, it was a great decision as we had a really great time in Ericeira and the surrounding areas. The Villa was perfect for my family, it has loads of space internal and external and the views are amazing, we particularly enjoyed eating dinner looking out over the valleys. The house was very nice and clean and was equipped with everything we needed to make for a very comfortable stay. The local beach St Juliao was fantastic and myself and kids enjoyed some great surfing lessons here, we can’t wait to get back in the green waves again soon. We will be back again next year . Many Thanks Nadia and Family

We looked at the review from the previous guests and were concerned by their comments and general poor review. We contacted Craig (the owner) who put our minds at rest regarding the quality of the villa and safety aspects. One part of the review mentions a crack in the large glass window in the lounge, Craig told us this was a small crack when in reality it is a very large crack. Eduardo the property manager assured us that this was safe and actually banged on the glass to confirm it, we accepted what he said but still remained concerned over our stay as we has our 2 year old granddaughter with us. The villa has been beautiful and is in an amazing spot but it needs some money spending on it to bring it back up to luxury status. The hand held part of most of the showers poured water everywhere and all of the shower cubicles leaked onto the floor every time they were used....not a major issue but it got a bit tiresome wiping the floors. The wifi signal was very strong early morning and very late evening but in the day it was down to 0.02 mbs. Please don't take this as a bad review it is still well worth visiting. The local town of Ericeira is lovely and the beaches in the surrounding area are all spotlessly clean and safe....the whole area is spectacularly beautiful.

2nd visit to the villa & this time family trip. As always owner easy to deal with & his local contact could not do enough for us in making sure we settled in & got us a basic shop due to late arrival. Perfect villa for family groups or surfing groups of any level with sand beach breaks to reef breaks along the coast.

Immaculate, well equipped, beautiful place in a perfect location, even the landlord was super helpful. Thanks for a fantastic holiday, can't wait to go back.

We booked this property on the pretence of a big family with kids from the outset which we explained!!The property I would imagine at one stage was superb but this is now not the case! Some electrical points are loose, exposed or just not covered! Huge window overlooking pool badly cracked! First floor air conditioning does not work,after complaining brought in mobile unit! helps, but with the amount of glass it's still stifling! Has a hoover outlet system that doesn't work! A regular occurrence for this property! Complained so brought a big old industrial Hoover with no handle, still at least that helped! Shutters kept going wrong! Again fixed temporarily only for the unit to fail again! So only half opened it there after! Tumble dryer not there! The external bedroom!! has no toilet so at night they have to unlock their door then unlock property back door then viseversa not ideal at three in the morning!! This was not explained! The studio downstairs apart from a lack of curtains and a unpleasant odour which we sorted by buying several air fresheners wasn't too bad, sorry forgot to say external bedroom took 3 air fresheners just to make bearable! Externally!! we asked for a minimum of 10 sunloungers which were promised we arrived on Thursday only 7 here remainder arrived on Monday eve with the 8 cushions after again asking! Gardener turned up on the sat morn to cut the overgrown grass,clean pool etc didn't see him again and we stayed for three weeks!! So as you can imagine garden areas quite unkempt! Pool not heated was told motor had been stolen!! But we should of checked really our fault on that one!! Decking round pool poorly done where lengths meet there's no noggins in places so unstable! Pool edge facing house at least 4 metal spikes protruding at least 150 mm ! Top garden external wall huge crack unsafe!! All patio areas covered in paint droppings, I could actually go on and on but you get my drift I think!! This place has wonderful views and I would imagine at one stage was excellent but they have let it deteriorate to such an extent, it is definitely not the same property that they show you on the pictures!! I would guesstimate they are between 5 and 7 years old!! We aimed to chill here with barbecues most days with the family but ended up going out most days as it really is unsafe for kids, a real disappointment in fact it feels liked we've been had !! Will take advice on this one when I return to England!

I stayed at the villa for a surf trip with some friends and we were all so happy with the property. It was very clean/tidy and well equipped for what we needed. The villa is located in a stunning quiet area with breath taking views of the surrounding area. It took around 3-5 minutes to get to the closest beach break by car and we even walked it one day which wasn't too much of a challenge. The drive into the town isn't a back breaking distance either, this is a lovely town with many bars/restaurants and whatever else you need. For surfing, there are so many breaks within the area so you have many options for whatever level of surfer you are. A big thank you guys and I can't wait to return

Fantastic week here with my husband and children. Easy to find from the airport, beautiful views at night over looking the town and also in the close distance the ocean can be seen in the day. Villa was equipped with high chair, cot and bath seat which is fantastic and saved me a lot of bending over and security knowing my one year old was safe in the bath. Beds were comfy and fresh linen and a well equipped kitchen. The local beaches are beautiful and Fozdolizandra beach was perfect for the children with a number of cafes serving great food from Sushi, wraps and pizzas. A local surf school on the beach which my eldest loved. The town is beautiful and some lovely cafes, restaurants and shops. Tourist Information is very modern and really help full. Went to Lisbon for a couple of days and visited the aquarium a must for young families and also went to Cascias to the Farrol Design hotel which was amazing service and food with beautiful views of the ocean and the waves crashing. We had a great time as a family and look forward to coming back soon.

We stayed here as we wanted to be near ericiera and all the beaches and this is 3 mins drive from Sao juliao which is a really good beach break. The villa is in such a nice area, quiet and has the best view over the valley. I've stayed in a few villas over your years in Portugal and this by far is the best value for money. Modern villa which has a gated entrance which is good as we intend to bring the kids next time.

The design of the villa is stunning, from the building down to the decor. It had everything that you would need for a memorable holiday. We had a great time in this villa; is fully equipped and made us feel like at home. The house and the garden are amazing. For hot days the swimming pool is a great place to be. The property was very clean and well maintained.I just can't praise it enough, we stayed a week and wished we had booked longer. I will have no reservations on recommending this villa to anyone who would like to see the beautiful Ericiera. We loved the place and we will definitely come back next year.

We stayed in this amazing Villa for a whole week. Great location and easy to get to St Julio Beach. The owner was really helpful and gave us some great tips about the area and places to visit. We would highly recommend this villa. Ericeira town was a great place to east out and enjoy the local shops and bars. Looking forward to book again next year to explore more of the area. Thank you again for a great time

THE VILLA WAS EVEN BETTER THAN WE EXPECTED . VERY WELL MAINTAINED AND CLEAN . CRAIG WAS VERY QUICK TI RESPOND TO OUR QUESTIONS . WE DEFIANTLY RECOMMEND THIS STUNNING VILLA . ERICIERA HAD PLENTY OF RESTAURANTS TO SUIT ALL TASTS ,GREAT BEACHES SURFING WALKS AND STUNNING SUNSETS .

Stunning property with beautiful views of the valleys stunning at sunset and at sunrise. The property was easy to find and when we arrived the property was very clean. The gentleman who manages the property was very friendly and helpful and showed us around the property. The beds are comfy, fresh linen, the kitchen was great for me and my family as opened planned so I was able to have a bottle of red on the go whilst cooking and talking to our family and keep an eye on our baby. In the mornings we relaxed by the pool whilst my husband surfed which he enjoyed. He has surfed all over the world and enjoyed his morning sessions which were "pumping" before he came back for lunch and then we all went to the beach for afternoon sun and a walk. The beach is a beautiful sandy beach and the local town was very friendly with a great selection of restaurants and bars. We are booked to return in 2016

The property is well maintained, and although it is hard as the sea wind can be rough, it looks as well as advertised. Some minor problems might appear, but Eduardo the "help with everything and anything guy" is only a phone call away and is always ready to help with anything you might need. The owner is almost always available by phone or e-mail if needed. Remember you are on the Atlantic coast and the water can seem cold at the beginning. (Pool or Ocean) You will need a car to get to town (Mafra) for access to Lisbon or Sintra by bus or train,(Mafrense website) or for necessities. (Continente, Lidl) The beach is close by and can be accessed by car or by foot through a variety of little paths through lovely rocks and bushes. You can also go to Ericeira for more beaches (40 min walk, 15 min car) The area has not yet been flooded with tourists, and apart from surfers you will not see a lot of people. In conclusion, after a couple of days discovering the area, you can have a greatly mixed holiday in a big house enjoying the pool after a BBQ, going to the beach, discovering the wonderful views, and go to Lisbon for a bit of partying. (Watch out for the sprinklers at night, the grass don't stay green by miracle)
