About us
A magical place in a magical setting, less than one hour away from Lisbon, Areias do Seixo Villas invite Family and Friends to breathe in Nature! The vegetable garden, the dunes, the pine trees, and the ocean will be your company throughout the whole stay.
Experience creativeness, sublime comfort and an inerrable sense of style that seamlessly blends in with the natural surroundings.
Each Villa is decorated in a singular way and will provide a unique stay each visit.
On the Family Village imagination flies high… A playful site, with a small circle of fire, trampolines, kart track, tent to work on body and mind, tepees, bicycles, and many other surprises…
On the different gastronomic experiences - inside and outside doors - a journey of smells, flavours and colours awaits you, taking advantage of whatever land and sea give us locally.
Let yourself be transported back to roots, surrounded by the ones you love the most, together with Nature.

BRIEF HISTORY
Areias do Seixo Hotel was born in 2010, consisting initially of 14 rooms and 4 villas. The project was a dream come true of the owners Marta Fonseca and Gonçalo Alves. They had a compelling desire to create a unique place where they could welcome people from all corners of the globe in a magical familiar setting. Originally thought and conceived to provide romantic and sensorial stays for couples, soon the need for growth emerged, as well as the desire to expand and to invite families and friends to also commune with Nature. Since then, the project has been constantly growing and new villas have been built.
In 2021 the distinction between Hotel and Villas began to assume greater importance - intentionally -, with the creation of a playful site (the Family Village), the development of new activities aimed at the little ones and families, a reception only for the Villas and differentiated gastronomic experiences, better able to meet the dynamics of families and small groups.
In 2022, the construction of new Villas began.
From the dream to the construction of this space, many obstacles were overcome. Result? A place where all the ingredients that make it up were chosen with originality and comfort in mind… A place where you simply feel like being and living every moment, with Family and Friends, together with Nature.
