Eco Ultimate Luxury surrounded by the nature and waves of Santa Cruz!

Areias do Seixo Charm Hotel is a magical natural havan, less than one hour away from Lisbon. Experience creativeness, sublime comfort, relaxed ambiance, and a keen sense of style that seamlessly blends in with the natural surroundings of the land, the sea, and the shore.

This is the perfect retreat for anyone truly seeking a break from the urban hubbub and looking to restore their energy levels by giving themselves up to nature and the endless waves of this slice of Portuguese coast.

The Resort

Areias do Seixo Charm Hotel is a realisation of the owners Marta and Gonçalo’s dream, who had a compelling desire to create a unique place where they could welcome people from the four corners of the globe in a magical familiar setting.

Areias do Seixo exists in harmony with Nature. It was conceived and fashioned in perfect balance with its surroundings. This hotel is an ecological place that applies the principles of sustainable tourism: energy efficiency, renewable energies, and the use of natural resources.

Each room tells its own intriguing story. The restaurant transports you to a place where scent, taste and colour come together, using raw ingredients sourced from the bountiful Mother Nature. Let yourself be transported back to an almost forgotten time when “to feel” was enough.

Waves at Areias Do Seixo

Santa Cruz is home to a renowned beach break, a long stretch of sand that produces some thumping barrels and reeling peaks that can rival Europe’s best on its day. Home to a series of sandbanks and sand-covered reefs, Santa Cruz even has a sand-covered shipwreck!  Both Peniche and Ericeira are a short drive away for the ones willing to score also these famous waves or where the conditions are not perfect for the home spots!

All-year-round waves see their best conditions in spring and autumn when the swells are consistent, the light off-shore winds blow and the peaks get perfect!

The resort offers surf lessons and guiding for all surfing levels, in groups or private, through its sister Noah Surf School.

Why We Love Areias Do Seixo

The unique style of the rooms and villas, curated in all details, with stunning views over the ocean and the dunes!

You can walk through the dunes to access the beach and the many surfing peaks of Santa Cruz!

Areais Do Seixo is a charming hotel with a strong environmental awareness! We love the sustainability concept behind it!

Accommodation

The resort offers gorgeous double rooms and a Pine Shelter perfect for a romantic couple getaway and three-bedroom luxury villas, a great choice for families and groups!

The guests will experience a different journey through the senses in the Hotel rooms. Their elements include fireplaces, Jacuzzis, terraces, and unique views of the sea and the dunes. With their seductive decor, using recycled elements,  all rooms are sophisticated and each of them is unique in its style. The Shelter distinguishes itself from other rooms not just for its unique location but also for its direct contact with Nature, in a charming luxury tent.

The Villas are independent houses, located across the street from the Hotel’s main building. Here rusticity and urbanity come together seamlessly with the Atlantic Ocean as the backdrop! Seductive and cosy, the spaces are large and ethereal and include an outdoor pool and barbeque area.

The Cuisine

Enjoy a creative, organic, authentic, and lovingly made dinner/lunch at Areias do Seixo Restaurant! Here the Chefs cook with what Mother Earth naturally gives them, using flowers, bulbs, vegetables and herbs of the garden. The products are used according to seasonality, mostly are Portuguese and many locally sourced.

For a special romantic experience, you can have your dinner served in the beautiful Garden Dome, underneath the starlight, surrounded by sand dunes and pine trees.

The breakfast consists of a delicious buffet made from regional delicacies and organic produces from the vegetable garden, freshly squeezed juices, fresh fruit, a variety of bread and cereals, homemade cakes, yoghurts and jams.

The sister restaurants Noah Beach House and Noah Surf House Restaurants also offer a great alternative dining experience with the ocean as the background.

Activities

A great variety of activities and excursions specifically designed for couples and families are available at the resort. Choose between some active experiences like yoga, personal training, skateboarding, bicycle rides and walks or more relaxed ones as wine tasting, bonfire, movie nights and picnic on the sand dunes! Kids will also have fun with cooking classes, art workshops, yoga for kids and many more!

Wellness

Let yourself go, rediscover balance, awaken your inner wisdom and relax at Areias Do Seixo SPA, featuring two massage rooms, Sauna, Turkish Bath, and relaxation room. A world of unique sensations awaits you. All products are natural and the treatments use aromatherapy, phototherapy and essential and vegetable oils, which are heated to provide total relaxation.

Sustainability

Areias Do Seixo was developed with great environmental awareness, to achieve harmonious integration. The key concern is to cause the lowest environmental impact possible. From land to the table, the ingredients used in the restaurant come from the organic garden or are locally sourced. All types of accommodation don’t have air-conditioning, using geothermal temperature regulation!

My wife and I booked an 8 day surf charter on the Gahaa with a dedicated surf guide Moussa who was worth his weight in gold knowing what breaks would be firing and his knowledge of marine life and Maldivian environment enlightening for my wife and I. From the initial booking and contact Guilia at AWAVE made the whole process seamless communication was excellent. I have traveled extensively and surfed many parts of the world this trip truly exceeded my expectations the crew were incredible taking us to excellent surf and snorkeling locations. The boat itself is a converted fishing Dohni that exudes old world charm is clean and meticulously cared for. The meals prepared for us were nothing short of exceptional excellent variety and plenty of it a mix of western and Maldivian fare. We are definitely coming back and certainly using AWAVE again! Thank you Giulia and Moussa our trusted surf guide who gave us incredible insights into Maldivian culture.

Absolutely Recommended. Giulia and James are top professionals: I will be using Awave for all my future surf trips. I have been surfing for 30 years and travelled the world so I have dealt with a lot of agents. Awave is in the top spot as far as I am concerned. I spent 10 days with them on a boat trip in Maldives’ central atolls: not only their recommendations were spot on but being a boutique agency they tailor the surf experience to the very specific needs. They are surfers (real chargers) and know personally each spot and surf operator they recommend (wtether it is a guest house or a resort or a boat).

Trip of a lifetime. First and foremost I'd like to thank James Colston from Awave Travel, for assisting me in every which way to help book one of the most memorable experiences I've had in my life. He was extremely responsive and answered every single question I had, even the dumb ones haha. As for AYADA, holy dooly, that place is paradise! Absolutely breathtaking, I couldn't believe I was actually walking around such a beautiful island! Big love to the staff at Magu Restaurant, seeing as how I ate there pretty much everyday, they were amazing! Very switched on and quick off the mark to help with anything that was needed. A special mention to Dhaboa and the captain who took me out surfing! I cannot speak highly enough about their friendly, helpful and straight up on point expertise. With Dhaboa picking the spots to surf and tips on where to sit to catch the best waves on the day, to the wonderful captain himself, filming and sending me videos of the waves I caught.
Absolute legends! Made my surf trip! Best holiday I've ever been on to this date.

Reliable travel agency to book a surf trip - Both Giulia and James were very reactive and adivsed on the best options. In our case we made a boat trip in Maldives. It is the second time we use Awave Travel to do a surftrip to Maldives and we have had a very good experience in both cases. They are a reliable and trustworthy travel agency, I highly recommend them.
