House reviews about experience & stay written by our guests.

Great spot to explore the beaches and local area. The location lends itself to exploring the local beaches for walks and off course surfing. 5 minutes walk to the local beach, and on to Baleal. A 15-20 walk to Ferrel and a wide range of restaurants. Zuzana was always quick to reply to messages and questions. We also hired surfboards from the hosts for a couple of days to get us in the water.

Gavin – April 2022

We had a great time at Zuzana’s house:), the neighborhood is very beautiful, the beach, the possibility of surfing, local restaurants are within walking distance. I highly recommend this place.

Marta – February 2025

Zuzana’s house is a perfect getaway location in a quiet neighbourhood. It’s a short drive to Baleal Beach. We were fortunate to enjoy some warm days in the off season when the beach was not crowded. And we loved the hot tub – a rare treat! Thank you Zuzana!

Lisa – January 2022

A wonderful and peaceful place situated just moments away from the coast of Baleal – perfect for surfers! The amenity provided was great (and we really appreciated the jacuzzi), and Zuzana made sure we enjoyed our time here – we’ll come back for sure!

Charran – March 2022

This house was perfect !! Easy access on foot to beaches, shops, bars and restaurants! The hosts were great and provided a full service vacation with easy board and wetsuit rentals to excellent surf instructors ! Will definitely be returning!

Ericka – July 2019

The location is quiet, away from the main road, and within walking distance of white sandy beaches, great surf spots and beach bars. You can actually see the surf from the house. A small supermarket is a 5 min walk away and a good place to buy bread in the morning. All of the other Peniche surf spots, Peniche center as well as Ferrel, are just within minutes by car.

Paul – July 2020

Zuzana and Tibor were the best of host’s. The house was exceptionally appointed with all details taken care of. They definitely go the extra mile and are on hand and approachable should you need any assistance. Their recommendations on restaurants and great surf areas were outstanding. Renting the surf gear from them was convenient and a great deal. Our family would recommend the beautiful home to any visitor to the Peniche/Beleal area.

John – June 2016

The “Surf Atlantic”is the perfect place to have an outstanding vacation in Baleal. We´ve found everything just as described on the website – SIMPLY PERFECT. But on top we´ve found two wonderful people – Zuzka and Tibor, the owners, they´ve made us feel at home + they gave us great advises concerning food, surf lessons and organised surf equipment for our whole group. We´ve already decided to spent our next surf holiday at Surf Atlantic next year.

Mirka – May 2016

It was a great stay and we enjoyed every moment! The hospitality was the best and everything was very clean and taken care of. We expect to return soon!

Isabel – May 2020

Zuzana and Tibor couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful. They would respond to any request within minutes and helped us settle in, in terms of not just the house but the local area. Tibor equipped us with excellent surfboards and advice as to where to catch the best waves given the conditions. We couldn’t have had a better holiday. With grateful thanks to you both. We will return!

Vickey – January 25

Best place to stay in Peniche – Baleal area. We loved our 10 day stay at Surf Atlantic. Beautiful house, clean, spacious, great location and equipped with anything you need for a relaxed holiday. Best we ever stayed at, definitely. Zuzana, you are the best host holiday makers can wish for, making us feel at home right away with great tips to eat and for daily shopping. Available 24-7 for everything we might need.

Annelies – July 2015

Zuzana and Tibor were wonderful! Super friendly and very helpful with their vast knowledge of local surf beaches, restaurants, cafes etc! Would love to stay again in the future!

Seb – February 25

We (family with two teenagers) had some fantastic days in Zuzana’s nice house. It’s a very cozy and comfortable house. The kitchen is modern and well equipped and the bathrooms are very nice. The patio is nice and protected from wind and looks. There’s outdoor grill and a jacuzzi that we used and appreciated! The house has the extra things that make the stay extraordinary. Zuzana is a great host, very helpful and friendly. She gave us good tips on restaurants and very good and professional surf teachers. I can really recommend this accommodation and Zuzana as host.

Susanne – August 2018

This is just a magic place to spend your surf holiday! Zuzana & Tibor are such lovely hosts, gave us great advices for surf spots, bars, supermarkets etc. in the area. The house is amazing, top clean, a lot of space and everything in it you need. Moreover barbecue on the sun terrace and relaxing in the jacuzzi after a surf session.

Robert – September 2017

The house is immaculate. Well equipped and well thought out. Lovely linen, towels and has everything you need for a relaxed holiday. The hot tub and barbecue area were well used and thoroughly enjoyed. Beautiful planting on terrace. Private. Peaceful. Great WiFi and smart television. Wonderful kitchen to cook in.

Vickey – January 25

Home extremely welcoming, impeccably clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated and cared for right on the outside of the terrace. Jacúzi and the barbecue, were the elements of our family’s election. I recommend everyone a stay in this stunning spot! We hope to return at the next time.

Sonia – June 24

If I could have put 6/5 I would have! An irreproachable welcome by Zuzana and Tibor. The house was immaculate in terms of cleanliness, equipment and location. 4 beautiful bedrooms, 2 nickel bathrooms, a large living room and a kitchen. The terrace is also an undeniable plus! With jacuzzi and furniture for all. I highly recommend.

Anne Julie – July 2021

I´ve been to Peniche many times before and consider this accommodation as the best I´ve ever had there. It offers you anything you need – walking distance to the beach, comfortable beds with good mattresses, well equipped kitchen and barbecue place, nice bathrooms, fast wifi – and with a jacuzzi on the spacious and lovely terrace, it provides you with the perfect relaxation after a long day of surfing. And if you stay there in the colder months you never have to worry that you might freeze. The heater in the living room warms up the whole house.

Nils – May 2017

We had a wonderful week of surfing. Villa Surf Atlantic is perfectly placed (5 min from the beach) and will satisfy any surf enthusiast. The beds are fantastic, the house perfectly cleaned upon arrival is super well equipped for cooking and living for 8 people. We can only recommend! In addition, Zuzana and Tibor were welcoming, accommodating and a great help with the various tips both surfing and restaurant as well as supermarket. THANK YOU!

Daniel – June 2019

We had an awesome stay at this place. Zuzana and Tibor are very friendly hosts. Communication went smooth and fast. The apartment and the terrace with jacuzzi are just as good as the pictures show. The location is within walking distance of several surf spots and even more within a 5 minute drive. The option to rent surfboards and wetsuits directly at the apartment was also nice and super flexible. We would definitely recommend to book this place!

Frank – July 2021

The house is in a great location. 2-3 min walk directly to the beach. Zuzana and Tibor are very nice and helpful. The rental of wetsuit and surfboard as well as the organisation of surfing lessons with local surf instructors went smoothly. The jacuzzi and the barbecue complete the surf stay perfectly. Absolutely recommended. We had a rental car and so we would be super flexible and everything was very good and easy to reach.

Saskia – May 2017

This house was perfect !! Easy access on foot to beaches, shops, bars and restaurants ! The hosts were great and provided a full service vacation with easy board and wetsuit rentals to excellent surf instructors! Will definitely be returning !!

Ericka – July 2019

We had a great time at Zuzana’s! The house is simply perfect for a surf trip. You have everything that you need and more! The jacuzzi was particularly awesome after our long hours in the water. I would recommend this house to anyone and would gladly stay there again!

Matthieu – November 2015

Had a great time at Surf Atlantic! Its super clean and comfortable – nothing’s missing for nice holiday as a family. You can rent surfboards and wetsuits and Tibor can tell u where to go surfing as a beginner and more advanced surfer. And we really loved the hot tub!
