Best place I've stayed in all of Portugal. Everything from Marion welcoming us, making us feel right at home, the kitchen, beautiful selection of tea, gorgeous room, backyard, all of it! The energy in her home is so positive and loving, I really did not want to leave.

Barefoot is a lovely guesthouse. The rooms are cosy and the whole house is a gorgeous place. The location is idyllic, just outside of Ericeira - out of the crowds but still close enough to get their easily. For surfing is Ribeira D’Ilhas beach close by and very awesome. The communication with the extremely kind host, Marion was relaxed and she (and her parents) made our stay a pleasant one. We would 10/10 recommend this to others.

I spent 10 days at Barefoot Guesthouse and it was simply wonderful. Thanks to Marion you will find a home away from home. The house has everything you need and so much more. 10min walk to the beach and 8min drive to the town. A big backyard for outside yoga or workouts. A pool for a cold plunge (i was there in feb). Marion even has a list with incredible delicious restaurants near by. If you reading this, just book your room and I promise you wont regret it.

Barefoot Guesthouse is a great place near nature and different activities as well as the town of Ericeira. I had everything i needed there for a great stay and also made some new friends. Marion is the best host who is always smiling and gives it 101% for everyone to feel welcome and good.

Very beautiful, stylish and warm-hearted place with great host. Marion cares very well for her guests. A perfectionist when it comes to the high quality and standard of the interior and comfort, yet easy going and natural. the Place has a really good size to enable both community and private living. it’s tranquil and quiet yet close to everything you need and ericeira center by car. we spent a month in the apartment as a family and felt at home. a nice Place to be with friends or meet new people with serene surrounding, quality and style.

The Barefoot guesthouse was truly a pleasant discovery. We stayed for a week and it was like being at home. The room was very clean, comfortable bed and finely renovated bathrooms. The common livingroom is very sunny, facing on the patio and the swimming pool. The owner, Marion, was always available for what we needed, from the breakfast to suggest us the right yoga and surf courses. Furthermore, the location is perfect, completely surrounded by greenery but one step away from the beach and Ericeira. We highly recommend it!

With our friends we settled in Barefoot Guesthouse for a long weekend. What a dream house! We relaxed by the pool and in the evening we could all eat at a large table in the living room. There is a neat, communal kitchen with a spacious oven and quality kitchen utensils. There is even a coffee table where you grind fresh beans and froth milk for the tastiest coffees. Waking up with a cappuccino & a view over the valley, what more could you want! Our room "The Homy Balcony" was very romantic. Lots of daylight with a large (nice!) bed, nice balcony and a good shower. Not unimportant; the room has dark curtains so we could sleep in for a long time 🙂 The surroundings of Barefoot Guesthouse are beautiful, there are a number of hiking trails in the valley and you can walk to the beach in 10 minutes, along the rugged coast there are also many hiking trails with spectacular views over the ocean. The wine tasting with picknick at Quinta de Sant'Ana (which was recommended by our host Marion) is also highly recommended. Barefoot Guesthouse Ericeira has everything for the perfect holiday!

What a lovely place, with fantastic views and a relaxed atmosphere. The room was nice, spacious and had a great bed. In the beautiful village of Ericeira you can enjoy shopping and delicious food. It is also nice that the beach is within walking distance from the guesthouse. Thanks for a fantastic time!!

This guesthouse is one to fall in love with. We were sleeping in the spacious room, well it is very spacious, light and beautiful. The bed is so comfy, I slept better here than in my own bed (well that's something, never had that before). The (rain) shower feels great, there is plenty of hot water and the shower gel smells like you're in paradise. The general living room/kitchen is spacious, but very cosy. I really love all the little details the hostess brought to the house (the couch doesn't only look amazing, it also sits very comfy). The kitchen has everything you need to prepare a nice meal. There is even a dishwasher and it opens itself when finished (wow!). The garden gives you a relaxed feeling, it's spacious, got romantic places to sit, there is a swimming pool and what I liked most; many different fruits are growing there like grapes, passion fruit, pomegranate, apricots, cape gooseberries, pine nuts... It's a 10 minute walk to the beach. Ericeira has a lot to offer, more beaches, shops, beach clubs, many restaurants (fresh fish!!). I will definitely book again! What a place!

Amazing place with an awesome view over the valley and close to the beach. Lovely garden area with swimming pool and fresh grapes straight from the vine! Will definitely return here! Many thanks to the ever friendly host Marion for providing a lovely stay!

It’s super relaxed at Barefoot! The house is very spacious and light, with a very comfortable room with bathroom. The outside space is very big with many corners to chill out, pick some grapes, find some shade, enjoy a nice meal and dive in the pool. A great home base to stay when exploring the beautiful town of Ericeira and enjoy the endless waves of the area. Thank you for the warm welcome!

One word: fantastic! 🙂

Erik Vader

"Waking up from birdsongs, stepping out of my comfy bed and walking (barefoot;) on my huge balcony to enjoy the morning sun and the amazing view of the valley. I still smell the campfire from yesterday, what a hilarious evening we had. Time for coffee, stay Barefoot!"

Such a beautiful place! Great hospitallity. Not too far from the airport and lovely surroundings. The room is bright and cosy, with a great bed to sleep in. Everything is present for a perfect holiday❤🌞🏝

Caroline Gitz

Great location, beautiful surroundings. A fun, friendly, welcoming experience! Loved the room and shower. Nice beds and enough space in the room to chill. Liked the kitchen and shared area. It was sunny and hot so the pool and short distance to the beach where a great plus. Ericeira is a cute town. And my friend enjoyed the waves and surfed. It is not right on the beach, but i liked the 15min walk. The hosts are super friendly! I am already thinking of planning my next trip.

lovely bright and stylish rooms in a cozy guesthouse. Large shared living room and kitchen, where you can do your own thing and relax. Beautiful large green garden, with enough private corners to retreat to, and with a lovely swimming pool (approx. 11x5m?) to swim laps. Sandy beach with surf spot and good beach bar within fifteen minutes walking distance. You can also take lovely walks and bike rides from the guesthouse. Ericeira is a lovely town around the corner, a 5-minute drive away, with good restaurants and terraces, nice shops, and a relaxed atmosphere. The owner can also give you great ideas for other nice places and activities in the area, or provide you with more luxury at the guesthouse itself (if you don't want to leave the house). Highly recommended this guesthouse, I can say convincingly after having been here for 2.5w with my 2 teenage kids!

As soon as I saw Barefoot online I felt a knowing and a call to come here. I’m so glad I listened to myself. The friendships I made, the art I created, the beauty of this place. I am forever changed. I decided to live in Portugal while living here. I even thrived without a car. Marion is the bees knees of hostesses. I can’t recommend enough.

Whitney Ferwerda

Beautiful place, beautiful people. Will remember forever.

Brenda Balvers

Barefoot Guesthouse is a beautiful place to stay! I stayed there for 2 months and had a great time. The rooms are beautiful decorated, the common space is big and clean, the garden with pool is really amazing and the location is also really good (only 15 minutes walk to the beach!). Marion the host is really lovely. She makes sure you have a great stay and making you feel at home. Barefoot is definitely a place I recommend!

July Herrmann

Barefoot is a beautiful guesthouse very well located, close to a beautiful beach in Ericeira. The rooms are very clean, the common space is very well organised and taken care of, and a fully equipped common kitchen is available for a short or long stay. The owner Marion is very welcoming and responsive, always willing to make me feel home and comfortable during my stay.

Viviane Steffen

I spent five lovely days at the Barefoot Guesthouse. I enjoyed the spacious common room (it was raining a lot), the terrace and as well as my wonderful room. Marion was very helpful and made me feel at home quickly. The kitchen is fully equipped so in case you want to prepare a meal. A walk to the beach takes about 15mins where you can also enjoy a long walk along the cliffs.

Clara Pizarro

Beautiful house with amazing views, yummy breakfast, comfortable rooms and common areas. Marion is lovely! Would definitely recommend and come back 🙂

Nora Hauptmann

A beautiful house with large seating area/ Terrasse and pool, a super nice host and We had a great time and would definitely come back! Especially the rooms facing The Valley are super calm and beautiful. The house has a good location, 5 min from the famous surf spot and 10 min from Ericeira and still in the middle of fields and hills. The village where it is located also has a nice cafe and bakery. Thanks for the good time!

Sergio Cabello

Great experience at barefoot. Super well located especially if you just want to walk down to the beach and surf. Super clean rooms and very respectful people. Loved my stay

Chloe Hanley K

We had an absolute wonderful stay at Barefoot. We rented the entire house for 9 days with a large group. The house is decked out with cooking supplies, a grill, every room has their own bathroom and the pool is fantastic. Marion was so helpful with planning activities and recommending restaurants and places 10/10. I would highly recommend getting a car to visit surrounding areas and different beaches. We surfed several days at the nearby beach and hiked along the cliffs. One recommendation I would have is to provide pool towels and shampoo. Other than that just wonderful.
