Est. 2014 · Eleven Hotels Worldwide

Small hotels in the
world's quiet places.

Eleven owner-built houses across the high desert, the Aegean cliffs, and the Atlantic coast — for travellers who would rather wake to the sound of birds than the sound of a TV.

Eleven
houses.

Each Aerie hotel is small enough to be remembered — between twelve and twenty-eight rooms, always with a single restaurant, a single bath house, and one quiet living room. We don't expand without reason.

Since The First House
— No. 02 / Our Story

An accidental
hotel group.

"Our first hotel was a house we couldn't sell. Our second was a favour to a friend. The third was a deliberate decision."

Aerie was founded in 2014 by Mia Eriksson and Tomás Bravo after a long Tuesday in the kitchen of a half-renovated farmhouse north of Santa Fe. There was no business plan. There still isn't, really — only a short list of things we promise to never do.

Today the group operates eleven hotels in seven countries. Every one of them is owner-built. Every one of them is small. None of them have a television in the rooms. All of them have a record player.

2014First house — El Refugio. A six-room renovation in the high desert of New Mexico.
2017Pelago opens on Crete. Our first hotel outside the Americas.
2021Casa Lila — Oaxaca. Built around a 200-year-old jacaranda tree in the centre courtyard.
2024The Atlantic — Comporta. Our largest house yet (28 rooms) and the most reluctant.
"Aerie has done something very rare in modern hospitality: built a chain that doesn't feel like one. Every house feels like a home that happens to have rooms."

Slow
days.

Each Aerie house offers a short list of experiences built around the place it lives in. None of them require an app. None of them require a uniform.

i

The Bath House

Hand-built thermal pools, cedar saunas, and a single quiet room. Open from dawn. Closed for service after dusk.

ii

The Kitchen

A single fixed menu each evening, sourced from no further than fifty kilometres. Wine list from a single sommelier we trust.

iii

The Walk

A dawn walk with a local guide. Sometimes thirty minutes, sometimes three hours. No phones. No agenda. Tea on return.
