It is a very lovely property, on the smaller side. Only has 37 rooms. The views are spectacular of the ocean from the main lobby, pool area. You do need a car or Uber to get to the nearby beach, Ribeira D’ilhas. I would recommend visiting this beach, it is beautiful & has a lovely restaurant & public restrooms. Great surfing too. We did take an Uber to & from old town Ericiera. Very affordable and a short wait ~5 min. The hotel has a very calming, bohemian, modern feel. The bed/ linens were very luxurious and comfortable. The property is very quiet, we had a lovely rest. They also provided turn down service and brought us a dessert & another large bottle of water. We enjoyed dinner at Emme with a lovely bottle of wine & tasty dishes. Daniel provided excellent local recommendations. Breakfast was included in our stay and it was top-notch. Fresh mango, kiwis, assortments of meat/ cheeses, breads, eggs juices, coffee, etc. Parking on site was free. We did not have a chance to take advantage of the spa or gym facilities. They did hold our luggage and surfboards and delivered all baggage to our room when the room was ready. We had one of the Inspire Rooms overlooking the garden.

Yes, the resort is beautiful but the basic rooms are small and only some have ocean views. The bathroom area is tiny and there is no counter space. There are also no qtips, cotton pads or slippers and the shower door leaks. However, the soap, shampoo and body lotion that are provided smell very nice. Also the rooms that are off of the main building are surrounded by hedges and trees and I noticed a few bugs in my room perhaps because of this natural environment. The safe in the room was not connected to anything so we had to keep our valuables with us at all times. The beds were comfortable and the food at breakfast was delicious however the restaurant is expensive and the wine list unnecessarily so; you're better off eating at one of the nice local spots in town. The gym was also surprisingly minimal and lacking in equipment especially considering this is a "wellness" resort. Also frustrating was that the pool wasn't heated and the deck area, though pretty, was very windy. You also have to walk through the restaurant in order to get to the pool which just seems odd. The staff were friendly and the yoga instructor was great. I also found the manager, Mafalda, was helpful in making reservations for where to eat in town and which beaches to check out. Overall the hotel is pricey for what it is. It is also not in Ericeira but is a 15 minute drive north of the town. There are only 10 parking spots at the hotel, otherwise you have to park up a hill off the property.
