Bukubaki Eco Surf Resort

• Sleeps: 2-6
• Bedrooms: Varies
• Bathrooms: 1/2
• Minimum stay: 2 nights

Perfect for adventurous spirits and nature lovers, Bukubaki Eco Surf Resort occupies an exclusive position in Peniche, a stunning Portuguese city that’s also known as ‘The Wave Capital’ for its long surfing beaches.

Surrounded by pine and eucalyptus trees, constructed from natural materials, and using renewable energies, the friendly, laid-back resort is also the ideal place to relax and reconnect with the natural world.  

Not only can you enjoy invigorating activities like swimming, surfing, hiking and mountain-biking here, but also indulge in gentle yoga, meditation, and massage therapies.  

Oh, and did we mention there’s a gorgeous Gastro Bar on site too – serving everything from classic cocktails to locally sourced vegan feasts?

Accommodation-wise, you can choose from a selection of cosy, nest-like Treehouses, or Canadian Rooms… otherwise known as enormous ‘gypsy’ tents. Furnished for comfort, there are choices for couples, families, and groups of friends. There’s even a ‘bungalow’ treehouse option that’s wheelchair accessible, so nobody has to miss out on all the fun.  

Equipped with eco-heating and air conditioning, the luxurious, hanging Treehouses each sleep 4-6 guests, boasting private kitchenette and bathroom facilities. You’ll also discover a spacious, furnished sun terrace to watch the sunset from, as you cradle a delicious mug of hot chocolate (or a cheeky glass of wine.)

Meanwhile, the comfy Canadian Rooms are designed to emulate the back-to-basics simplicity of a camping holiday… except you won’t have to put your tent up in the rain! Elevated on a wooden deck, you’ll even find your Canadian Room elegantly equipped with downy beds and handcrafted furniture.

Sleeping 2-4 guests, the Canadian Rooms are perfect for couples and small groups, with a furnished sun deck to help you get lost in a good book, snuggly winter duvets for toasty evenings filled with laughter, and pristine shared facilities close by.

Whichever option you choose, you’ll wake from your restful night’s sleep to enjoy a tasty and nourishing buffet breakfast – including eggs and bacon if you insist! – before savouring the delights of the day ahead.

Wonderfully, what form these delights will take is completely up to you. Splash around in the saltwater swimming pool, join the Surf School, take skateboard lessons in the uniquely designed Skate Bowl, relax in the Finnish sauna, or simply rent a bicycle and explore.

If getting up close and personal with nature is more your thing, why not visit the Berlengas Natural Reserve instead? A protected and beautiful archipelago, it’s the perfect setting for an absorbing day trip, before you return to Bukubaki for that soothing sundowner.
