“The hotel stands out with its cliffside setting that affords incredible views, particularly from the multiple pools. It strikes me as a place designed with families in mind, from the kids' club to the special menus and that it also offers wellness facilities, including a spa, which add a layer of relaxation. The architecture is a nod to local culture, making it more than just a place to stay, but somewhere to experience Ericeira.”

Fantastic Stay with Minor Hiccup

sea view great service clean place

The location is superb. The hotel overlooks the sea atop a significant rock formation. My room had a balcony and it was amazing. The service was great and the whole place was clean.

The rooms feel old. The carpet and smell in the room were musty and needed an update. I requested a room change and the hotel was great about letting me check out after seeing the room.

I found the location right next to a beach just lovely. The room included a sea view, and I thought it was very clean. Breakfast had A LOT of options. The pool area was also lovely and not overcrowded.

I found the lighting in the bathroom could have been slightly better. It was a very minor thing, though.
