The second Hideaway on São Miguel is located in a very special place: in the middle of a volcanic crater in the village of Furnas. The environment here is spectacular …. It is very green with lots of ferns and beautiful flowers, everywhere there are geysers steaming and hot springs bubbling. It creates a mysterious atmosphere and the village looks a bit like a film set. The biggest plus of this hotel is its own thermal springs (both indoors and outdoors), which guests can use 24 hours a day.
It had been on our travel wish list for some time, and now it is actually in the Local Hideaways collection: the Azores! This Portuguese archipelago has it all: a touch of the exotic, overwhelming nature, fairy-tale waterfalls, hot springs, beaches, surf, a sea full of whales and dolphins, a choice of hiking trails, 4 seasons in one day, delicious food and ditto wine… all this in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean between the east coast USA and mainland Portugal!

The hotel is centrally located in Furnas and reflects the volcanic environment. Rooms are comfortable and most have a somewhat basic bathroom. But there is also a suite and a master suite. New are the Terrace rooms which have a private terrace with plunge pool.
