Dream Guincho

Eight rooms, all facing the sea, each named for a literary figure: the kind of small, design-forward hotel that makes you feel curated just for staying there. Perched in the hills above Guincho beach, a known surf stretch outside Cascais, it runs minimalist bones through bold color and a lot of books. Once a week, everyone sits down to dinner together, which is either charming or your nightmare depending on your personality.
