Wild Souls operates on a simple belief: that life feels better when it's shared. The space embraces shared dinners, spontaneous hikes, surf sessions, stopping for sunset, and late-night conversations by the fire. The community is built around connection, creativity, and ease, where the space functions as a shared home rather than just a coliving space.
The philosophy emphasizes being kind and inclusive, welcoming people from all backgrounds and walks of life. Residents are encouraged to treat everyone with kindness, curiosity, and respect while respecting personal boundaries. The community values both deep connection and the need for rest and recharge, recognizing that both approaches are valid.
Wild Souls started as Carolyn and Nick's dream for a more connected way of living. They created this space because they wanted something that didn't quite exist in Portugal — a home by the ocean where people can work, rest, and be part of something fun, spontaneous, and real. Not a retreat. Not a hostel. Just a thoughtfully designed place where strangers become friends over shared dinners, surf sessions, and side-by-side work days. This is the kind of place they wanted to live in but couldn't find — so they made it.
Perched on Portugal's rugged Atlantic coast, Ericeira is a vibrant surf town known for its stunning cliffs, golden beaches, and easygoing charm. As Europe's first World Surfing Reserve, it draws wave lovers from around the globe — but there's much more than surf.
Wander through cobbled streets lined with cafes, fresh seafood restaurants, and local boutiques. Mornings start with a stroll to the fish market, while evenings often end with live music spilling from tucked-away bars. Wild Souls is located in the small, quiet village of São Lourenço on the north side of Ericeira — just a short walk from an uncrowded surf break and scenic cliffs. Guests consistently describe the setting as calm, peaceful, and surrounded by nature, with the town center just a short drive away.
