Frequently asked questions

Yes. To have more flexibility and make the most of your holidays, we recommend renting a car. Ericeira is an extensive area with several beaches. The most emblematic ones, such as Ribeira D´ilhas, Coxos, São Lourenço and São Julião, are in the surroundings of the village. Renting a car provides freedom. If one day the weather is not good for the beach, you can take the opportunity to visit other places that are less than an hour away from Eco Soul Ericeira Guesthouse, such as Lisbon, Sintra, Cascais, Mafra, Óbidos, Peniche, among others. For this reason, we definitely recommend renting a car.
