Fodor's Expert Review Areias do Seixo

Set among the pine trees in front of Mexilhoeira Beach, this small and stylish eco-conscious hotel, 20 minutes from Torres Vedras, was built with a desire to harmoniously integrate it with its surroundings. All but one of the rooms have views of the ocean and dunes (and it makes up for the lack of a view with a private garden). Decorated with natural driftwood, all the accommodations have underfloor heating for winter, while in summer a fan and the sea breeze are enough to keep you cool. The restaurant serves creations from the hotel's own garden. There is also a glamping tent on the lake and several stylish villas sleeping up to six adults, each with a terrace, barbecue, and private pool.
