Why It Matters

Portugal's first 5-star hotel in Ericeira — Europe's only World Surfing Reserve. It's a member of Design Hotels and available through Marriott Bonvoy. Consulting chef Alexandre Silva (of Michelin-starred LOCO in Lisbon) runs the food program. The architecture by Tiago Silva Dias uses camera-shaped windows to frame the landscape, and the hotel has its own kitchen garden supplying both restaurants.

Immerso is a 5-star 'slow hotel' in a green valley above the Atlantic, about 35–45 minutes north of Lisbon. It has 37 rooms spread across a contemporary concrete main building and two smaller accommodation units, every room facing the sea. The whole concept is built around one idea: stop. The architecture, the programming, the food — all of it points toward decompression, not distraction.

Where You'll Stay

4 room types available

Inspire
standard

Inspire

Ground-floor rooms in one of the two smaller accommodation units on the grounds. Closer to the garden and nature than the main building rooms. Sea views are present but more oblique. Connecting room configuration available, making this the best pick for families. At 22 m², these are the most compact option on the property.

Nature
standard

Nature

Garden-facing rooms with a balcony. These are the only room category without a direct sea view — the outlook is over the hotel's green landscaped grounds instead. Slightly larger than Inspire at 25 m². A quieter, more private feel.

A step down in size from the Suites but still front-row for the sea. Sea and beach views from a private balcony. Fits two adults comfortably, with a cot option for infants. The go-to choice for couples wanting the view without the suite price.
