Beautiful location in a beautiful town
My favorite hotel in Ericeira, built on a peninsula overlooking a surfing beach. Great breakfasts, ample parking and easy to get to from the hotel to the highway.

Beautiful property over looking the sea on top of a huge rock formation and a cliff along the side- The property is in a beautiful village town. The room with the balcony was amazing The only thing I would suggest is that the room might need a little bit changes - remove the rug, put tile floors or wood floors and maybe add an area rug. The service was great. Everything was clean. The breakfast was very good. We felt so good here and comfortable in this beautiful fishing village town, I will come back here again.

Our first time to Portugal
It was really wonderful. Cleaning staff was kind. This was our first time trip overseas and we feel it was as good as it could be. Parking was a nightmare every night-they need more parking or a close off site place-it was a complete stress! The rooms were nice but there was not enough space for two people. And it was disappointing when we weren’t allowed to swim in the cool indoor pool because we didn’t have swim caps (of course we could buy them but these kinds of trips add up!) I think they should have been provided. But this was a great area, the beach was beautiful even with the fog coming in and out. Staff was helpful whenever we needed the help. We would stay again.

Overall we enjoyed this hotel. The staff and amenities were wonderful. The hotel room itself felt fairly dated, though it was in good repair and very clean. The beach, and surrounding town was incredible. We could hang out by the pool, spa, hit the beaches or wander along the ocean side walking path or through the town. There was lots to see and do and great restaurants close by.
