“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.”

wonderful experience

efficient staffreally good breakfastclean poolslacking area
I appreciated the friendly and efficient staff upholding high standards. the breakfast was fantastic.. especially the variety of fresh options available. there were two clean pools to use. I enjoyed the sound of the waves crashing nearby.
The spa zone could benefit from some improvements. A dedicated area with loungers for relaxation is needed. i found this lacking .

lovely beachclean roombreakfast varietylovely pool area
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.
