Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The space was very well designed, clean, and comfortable. Terrific use of an old windmill structure with stunning views of the surrounding valleys. Quiet, peaceful, and would recommend the Ericeira Windmill to those travelers looking for a place off the beaten path.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Booking was messed up and we did not receive access to this property, instead, we had to drive back to Lisbon to get an emergency stay for the night and looked for an alternative summer house.Very, very disappointing and poor service, but the on site guy, who took care of us and let us in to the apartment in Lisbon - he was great and did what he can.

Beautifully restored windmill in the perfect location!

Beautifully restored windmill with stunning views! 5 star location close to Lisbon and Ericeira but in full peaceful countryside. Well furnished and equipped. Drain smell and mould but confortable
