The Azores is an archipelago belonging to Portugal, consisting of nine islands : Sao Miguel, Pico, Terceira, Sao Jorge, Faial, Flores, Santa Maria, Graciosa and Corvo. In their case, the first thing that catches your eye is their volcanic origin. The second, however, is the amazing vegetation that covers them and a large number of arable fields. For this reason, the Azores are also called green islands . If you add high cliffs, low population density and vast spaces to it, then you will have a recipe for the perfect springboard from much more popular tourist spots.

Azores, Portugal

The Azores attract a relatively small group of tourists who want to be close to nature, hiking and admiring the scenery. There are no great resorts or many beaches on the archipelago. The Azores also has a much milder climate , which can be an important piece of information if you don't like hot places.

For whom

Do you love nature and active tourism ? Then the Azores will be your dream destination. The islands offer wonderful, idyllic landscapes, full of greenery, low hills, impressive cliffs, small lakes and farmland. Regardless of which one you choose, it will surely be delighted with its beauty.

Furnas Boutique Hotel - Thermal & Spa

I spent my holidays in the Azores on the island of Sao Miguel, at the Furnas hotel. It is a truly green oasis, famous for its thermal waters (there is the largest concentration of them in Europe). The surroundings are stunning, as is the hotel itself. Beautiful interiors, wonderful views, great swimming pools and an intimate atmosphere.

35th Atlantic View

If you visit the Azores, you must visit the 35th Atlantic View hotel on Pico Island. An overnight stay there is an unforgettable experience. It is a modern facility, beautifully located. It's not often you get to swim in a pool overlooking the volcano. The panorama from the roof terrace is also breathtaking. In addition, a very nice host and a price that does not give you a heart attack.

Atlantida Mar Hotel

I spent four nights on the island of Terceira at the Atlantida Mar hotel. Fans of modern design and architecture will definitely like it here. The hotel is located on the coast and offers expansive ocean views. There is an outdoor swimming pool and close to the beach. The room 100% met my expectations. The breakfasts were really tasty.

Pedras do Mar Resort & Spa

For a holiday in the Azores, I recommend the island of Sao Miguel and the Pedras do Mar Resort & Spa hotel located there. My wife and I spent a week there and we could have easily stayed even longer. Of course, you will find wonderful views, high quality of services, a beautifully decorated room and tasty meals. Additionally, there is plenty to do in the area.

Aldeia da Cuada

Flores Island, the island of flowers, is a perfect place for a holiday. Especially if you decide to stay in Aldeia da Cuada. It is a former village where several old stone houses have been converted into holiday villas. An overnight stay there is truly a kind of mystical experience. The surroundings, nature, views, atmosphere - everything is amazing. It's not very cheap, but it's not outlandishly expensive either.
