The Atlantic at golden hour, seen over the whitewashed parapet of the terrace at Casa Mirante

Mirante is the Portuguese word for a lookout, the spot on a cliff where people stop to take in the sea. The house is built around that pause. Six rooms stand on the edge above Ericeira, whitewashed and trimmed in blue, all facing the Atlantic. We are small enough to know every guest by name.

Open March to November · closed for the winter swells

Before you write

Open March to November, closed for the winter swells.

Cliffs above Ericeira, Portugal.

Ten minutes' walk to the surf at Ribeira d'Ilhas.

How do I book?

Email [email protected] with your dates and the room you'd like. We reply with availability and the price.

What does a night cost?

Rooms start at €140 a night, breakfast included.

When is breakfast?

Served on the terrace each morning, facing the sea. Tell us the evening before if you want it earlier for a dawn surf.

Can I store my surfboard?

Yes. Boards stay in the house, not in the rooms. Ask when you write.

What are check-in and check-out times?

We'll confirm both in our reply, so they fit your arrival.

Why are you closed in winter?

The winter swells and storms hit the cliff hard. We close, and open again in March.
