Luxury Hotel on Ericeira’s surf coast!

The modern design of Aethos Ericeira is outstanding. This secluded property is located above the ocean, surrounded by nature, watching over the Atlantic. From waking up to the salty breeze on the balcony to counting waves as you fall asleep, every guest finds a connection with the sea.

Ericeira’s coastline is dotted with plenty of world-class waves (consistent all-year-round!) which made the town gain the recognition of the first World Surfing Reserve in Europe!

The Hotel

Located on a cliff in front of the stunning surf beach of Praia da Calada. Aethos Ericeira sits in the middle of nature in a preserved environmental zone, with the center of Ericeira only 10 minutes away.

Surrounded by unspoiled nature and rooted in the heart of the hotel, the heated saltwater pool is a blissful sanctuary to swim and lay back. The pool is maintained at a comfortable temperature year-round, adapting to all the seasons. Enjoy a refreshing dip then kick back in our lounge chairs while enjoying specialty cocktails.

The resort’s features include a delicious sea-to-table restaurant overlooking the ocean, a fully equipped gym, and a holistic spa for maximum relaxation.

Professional and Top Notch! From the moment we started planning our trip AWAVE was responsive and professional. We had a lot of back and forth picking the perfect location and resort and James and Giulia were patient and helpful. The resort we stayed at, AYADA in the Maldives, was beautiful and relaxing- great for families and couples! It was perfect for us- we have 1 surfer in the family, he was able to enjoy the waves and we also were able to enjoy the reef and snorkel as a family. Our kids loved the kids club and the private pool on the beach villas was amazing. The alcohol is expensive if you don’t do full board but that is to be expected. Wonderful vacation and amazing travel agency! Definitely recommend!!

I've used Awave twice ... so far. This is the second time I've used Awave for a trip to the maldives. Stayed in 2 different resorts this time. They've always been incredibly prompt at replying and handled everything for us, making sure the 2 Resorts were in touch to get us transfered half way through our trip. At one of the resorts I even bumped into Giulia and Delia who were out there surfing at the time. There's no doubt in my mind that I'll use awave again if I'm booking a surf trip

Indonesia Surf Trip/ Java/Bali/Sumba - James Colston was my representative from AWAVE - I’m an older solo surfer and James was attentive, respectful, extremely responsive from the initial planning stages all the way through the booking. And he was so patient with all my crazy questions along the way. I couldn’t have been more pleased with James’s level of service. Thank you James

Giulia was an amazing person to book with. I was overwhelmed with choices initially, but AWAVE knew their stuff and helped me with my options and even suggested delaying my trip so I could go to a certain hotel which ended up being the best decision I made all year.

Giulia and James were always on line to answer any question or to give an advice. The Ayada resort is perfect both for families or for couples. We did not have waves as the season goes from April to September, but there are plenty options to have fun and good times. Highly recommended both Awave and Ayada.

The AWAVE team are knowledgable and helpful. Giulia is a very helpful and patient person to deal with, and do not worry, you can trust her. I had to delay my trip to Morocco due to unforeseen circumstances and Giulia was very understanding. I have just returned from having a fantastic week at Amouage in Taghazout. Thanks AWAVE!
