Barefoot is a coliving in Ericeira, Portugal, near the Ribeira d'Ilhas surf break, with private en-suite rooms and shared social spaces. Rooms start around 800 euros a month with a one month minimum and reported internet of about 100 Mbps. The operator also runs separate ocean-view villas for couples, families and groups.
Barefoot sits in a valley near Ribeira d'Ilhas, a few minutes from the beach in Ericeira, the fishing town north of Lisbon that holds Europe's only World Surfing Reserve designation. It runs as two products: a coliving for remote workers and surfers, and separate villas for people who want privacy.
Ericeira is the best of both things Portugal offers remote workers: it is genuinely a surf town with consistent waves most of the year, and it is forty five minutes from Lisbon airport when you need to fly. That combination is rarer than it sounds, since most good surf is a long way from a hub.
Portugal's wider advantages apply here too, from EU membership and mild winters to a large established nomad population and English spoken widely.
The honest note is price. At around 800 euros a month Ericeira is no longer the bargain Portugal used to be, and the town gets busy in summer. Rated 4.9 across more than a hundred and twenty reviews, though, which suggests people feel they got what they paid for.
From around 800 euros a month for a private en-suite room, with a one month minimum. Villas are priced separately.
Strong choice if surf is the reason you are picking a country, not a bonus.
