Wake up to the sound of breaking waves
Located on a secluded hilltop, this location offers an excellent combination of traditional heritage architecture (est.1869), with all of the leisure amenities you could wish for on a retreat.
For those of you longing to escape from the hustle and bustle of life, breath in the fresh ocean air whilst hanging out in a hidden spot amongst the greenery of the beautiful garden, or take a delightful dip in one of the outdoor Pools.
Discover the Portuguese land hosting us
Set in a quiet outskirt of Ericeira village we are surrounded by nature and wake up to the sound of breaking waves when a good swell hits our shores.
Ericeira village itself, just a short drive away, is a traditional Portuguese fishing village that has been catering for tourism for over eight centuries, whilst still always managing to maintain it`s original character, symbolised by it`s labyrinth of windswept alleys that whisper tales of seafaring adventures.
We are set in the middle of a world-class surf zone with an exceptional variety of surf spots ranging from powerful reef breaks to mellow beach breaks, catering for different levels and tastes of surfing.
Enjoy our wide range of outdoor activities
Being located in a World Surf reserve, a dip in the water to enjoy waves is the most common and requested activity. We cover needs of any level, from beginners to advanced, trough our experienced teachers.
But Ericeira is not all and only about surfing! We provide amazing cliff tours by Bike together with Bruno, a local exper guide willing to share the best spots with you, we have plenty of tips for short and long hikes along the coast. Moreover, our proximity to Lisboa, Portugal’s enchanting capital, the Unesco heritage town Sintra, the lush nature of the Sintra-Cascais natural park, make our location the perfect home base from where to explore this exceptional region!
Relaxed sunny days and ocean breeze on the way!
The Atlantic Ocean mitigates the weather in the area allowing warm summer days to never be too hot.
The place is perfect to enjoy, every evening, the amazing show of the sun setting over the ocean; from the venue deck or seated on a cliff any place is perfect to enjoy the sky turning from orange to deep red and then again purple on a dance you ll hardly get used to!
At night, when sun is gone and breeze is still up, is better to always have a jumper with you as it might get a bit chilly while relaxing on the outside deck or having a walk around the village.

I spent one week this summer. I felt really very comfortable and welcome at this place. The villa itself has an amazing location, u see the ocean from your window ! ) We had 2 full yoga classes a day. I did not do a surf class, but the girls that did were very satisfied.
Food was amazing! The chef did really amazing vegetarian dishes! I even got inspired and after coming back home tried to cook smt similar, hehe)
Federico and Riccardo + crew really do a lot of effort to provide guest with everything they need/want. Highly recommended if you want to escape and stay in peace (with the nice view -)). (Lisa I)

I’ve just gotten back from the retreat and it was the most incredible experience. I’ve left with new tools to manage stress and anxiety, a yoga practice that I’ll be able to easily implement in my daily life and new friends from all over Europe. The organizers are truly exceptional and put so much work and effort into making this a memorable retreat. Thank you so much and see you again soon! (Gosia B.)
