Everything and everyone, from the interior to the facilities and the owners it was all just perfect!!! This was my first solo trip and I couldn’t have picked a more perfect place. I honestly fell in love with laneez and Ericeria and I will now be back yearly. Thank you so so much to Elisa and Miguel for my stay!!!

Beautiful property, amazing views, lovely staff, good location and breakfast. The dorm was big so felt private and was always very clean.

Can't think of anything.

Great location with a beautiful view of the ocean. Large deck and common spaces inside the house. I can't remember the name of the manager but she is extremely helpful and friendly which made my stay very nice.

there were mosquitoes at night due to the door to the terrace being open for fresh ocean breeze - may be worth getting a screen door? but apart from that everything was exceptional.

Great location. The best view from anywhere I’ve ever stayed. On a cliff right on the beach. Such a friendly environment. You feel welcomed from the moment you arrive and everyone is so lovely. I also did a surf lesson which was a lot of fun. If I am ever back in Ericeira this is the place I will stay.

This is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. The view from the living room and deck is unbelievable. There was a great social atmosphere and the staff were so welcoming and friendly. They had a great selection of food for breakfast and a well equiped kitchen. I’ll definitely be staying there again!

Amazing location and the house “mom” is the best ever

We liked actually everything about it, the view from the terrace is amazing, staff and comunity there as well. It was very clean and common area was lovely to use. The surf classes we would also recommend!

The breakfast could be more sufficient, there were mostly only buns/croissants (fresh and tasty though).

Nice interior of the common space, great view from the terrace and exceptional community of people whom you meet there.

Some of the facilities were broken.

A great place to stay and the hostel with the best view I ever stayed. Super friendly hosts are welcoming you! Will come again!

I wish I had something substantive to say here. Lockers were somewhat limited I guess. I would've felt more comfortable if I could have locked up my technology but the lockers were in use. I didn't ask, but I'm sure they would have helped me out more if I asked. It's that kind of place.

I almost don't want to tell you about this hostel. It's not a typical hostel. It's a giant mansion with a marble patio that overlooks a great surf break. Look at the pictures. They don't do it justice. It's a great for a surf trip, especially for interemediate surfers, because of convenience. One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in.

The breakfast largely ran out of food by 9:30 and is not restocked.

Amazing location and incredible view from the room. 10 minute walk into town area. Comfortable bed and not noisy.

There is some small house maintenance things that can be done. A better solution for writing names on food containers should be thought of. Can't really think of many things I didn't like though!

Beautiful space in a very central location. The house is epic and has the best views! Shops, restaurants and beaches were all a short walk or Uber away. There were surfboards and wetsuits available for hire, and guests could join daily surf lessons where they were picked up and taken to where the waves were applicable to their surfing level. The breakfast included in the stay was sufficient. All the people who stayed there were great and we became a instant family going on missions together. The accommodation was comfortable and safe. Great kitchen!

The property is set on the side of a hill looking down on the beach and the common rooms have a stunning view. The staff is incredibly helpful and accommodating and everyone is super friendly. It creates a relaxed environment that is easy to share, which is not something you can say of all hostels. The surf instructors who work with Laneez were very patient, supportive, and kind and it was well-organized and easy to participate, even for beginners. Thank you to all the guys working out in the water! And to the wonderful housekeeping team.

The downstairs dorm that I was staying in could have been ventilated a little better, as there are only small windows. It was still fine to sleep in though, just a tad stuffy.

The location was beautiful, the place was tidy, the shared spaces were gorgeous, the breakfast was lovely...I could go on and on. It overlooks the beach, and it was so peaceful. Perfect solo trip destination. Being able to sign up for surf lessons was awesome, and next time I'll have to try the yoga.

Nice persons, beautiful place, loved the bed.

It would be good if bunk beds had curtains but considering everything else was excellent this seemed minor.

Laneez Surf House was my favourite hostel I have ever stayed at. The view from the balcony is an absolute highlight and I doubt there is a better view in Ericeira. The atmosphere at the hostel was friendly and sociable but you could also have peace and relaxation when you needed it. I stayed in the 10 room dorm, it was bright and spacious and opened straight out onto the balcony. The hostel runs very smoothly despite there being no reception, the hosts are available if you need and post in a whatsapp group updated on when surf/yoga lessons will be each day. The hostel organise pizza nights, taco nights and more, which are great. I took beginner surf lessons which were excellent, everything was organised by the hostel and the surf instructors were knowledgeable and professional. I hope stay again in the future!

Other hostel guests decided to be loud until at least 5am on a Sunday. We were awakened by their music and loud speaking even though we were sleeping on another floor, so sound isolation wasn’t necessarily the best (although obviously, the noisy guests were at fault).

Charming traditional Portuguese house converted into a hostel. Stunning view from the room with sea view and a private balcony. Everything was clean and nicely decorated. Very nice and accommodating staff from start to finish. We also booked a private surf lesson before arriving and loved it, the instructor was very good and patient. Excellent location close to the beach and the town center. The breakfast was basic but quite nice.

We felt very rushed to get out. We were told they had a big group coming and we needed to leave. It felt slightly rushed. It would have been nice to to be told that information. Not our responsibility. We have full intentions of getting out by checkout. Beautiful property.

The lockers were broken and not accesible. Although it's a very safe environment it would still be nice to have a locker to put your passport, creditcard etc in.

What a location. Unforgettable seaview from the spacious balcony and just a short walk away from town. I slept in the dorm with 10 other guests and it is no lie if I say I slept better in the dorm then I do at home. The other guests were very polite and quiet and the soothing voice of the sea in the background made me fall asleep quickly. The breakfast was basic and nothing special yet it fulfilled all my needs. Staff is very friendly and pro-actively call you when you sent them a text message with a question which I liked a lot. Also the surfteachers are working really hard to give you a good lesson.

Very nice hostel the living room is spacious with the sea view you have also a big terrace where you can watch the sunset. The kitchen is really nice you can cook everything and you have space for cook. Rooms are good. And the breakfast is yummy. Very nice stay if you want to relax and catch some beautiful sea view without moving. There is one surf spot just at the beach down.
