1. Eremita Baleal Beach Lodge (from USD 210)
Another perfect beach house accommodation is the Eremita Baleal Beach Lodge. The living room and bedrooms here have a direct view of the sea, allowing you to have a relaxing time while looking out onto the Atlantic ocean. There are BBQ pits in the backyard, where you can have a nice gathering with your friends or family and, if you surf, you can use the apartment’s cabin shower, to wash up and keep your surfboards safe.
Direct access to the beach and a nice veranda overlooking the coast, are just two of the reasons we recommend this place. Also, their WiFi is pretty decent.
