    Description

    WE AS A FAMILY,

    WE DISCOVERED a Noble House from the end of the 19th century. The house was uninhabited and the garden abandoned!

    WE DREAMED to recover the house and to preserve the culture. To reclaim the garden is to preserve nature.
    To be able to engage everyone in this journey is to keep alive the old spirit of the house!

    WE CREATED our Hostel & Family where we host our passion of turning each stay into a unique experience through the Azores!
