Immerso Hotel

Less than an hour from Lisbon, this boutique hotel sits on a hillside above the Atlantic, a mile from Ericeira, Europe's first World Surfing Reserve. The founders are designers, and it shows: clean contemporary architecture, warm minimalist interiors, and a serious collection of Portuguese art throughout. Some suites have soaking tubs with ocean views. Two pools, a spa, a yoga deck, and a beach within walking distance fill the days for those who didn't come to surf.
