Vila Gale Ericeira Hotel & Resort

On Ericeira's Atlantic coast, steps from Fishermen's Beach and a short walk to Ericeira Municipal Market. Popular surf spots like Ribeira d'Ilhas and Foz de Lizandro are within easy reach. Lisbon is about a 30-minute drive, making this beachfront hotel a great base for day trips and family-friendly beach escapes.

Housed in a charming, refurbished historic building with panoramic ocean views, the property offers around 202 rooms, many with ocean-view balconies and several junior suites with living areas and terraces. Rooms are air-conditioned and feature minibars, LCD TVs and private bathrooms. The vibe is relaxed coastal with modern comforts and family-friendly touches.

Spa and wellness are front and center — think massages, sauna, Turkish bath and a health club with gym and jacuzzi. Two adult pools (one saltwater), an indoor pool, a children's pool with water slides and a poolside bar keep days active. Kids' club and playground make it family-friendly. Expect easy beach access and sea-breeze mornings.

A business center and several meeting/conference rooms with internet and multimedia options support events and corporate stays. Additional services include a 24-hour front desk, laundry and dry cleaning.

On-site dining includes a main restaurant plus two bars and a pool bar. A complimentary buffet breakfast is served each morning (typical hours 7:00–10:30), while lunch and dinner are available buffet or à la carte; room service runs during limited hours. Menus highlight local flavors to complement the coastal setting.
