Areias do Seixo Hotel

The place

Concrete and glass on the western coast of Portugal, half an hour from Ericeira. Inside, Areias do Seixo softens: reclaimed and vintage furniture, Moroccan objects, a rustic bohemian warmth the facade never announces. Fourteen rooms and suites, each one its own.

The sustainable five-star property keeps an organic garden, and the garden feeds the kitchen. At Semear, chef António Pega cooks fresh seasonal dishes with Mediterranean accents, alongside a wine list that leans on regional producers.

There is an infinity pool, a sauna, a steam room, a spa. And beyond all of it, the coast.
