FURNAS LAKE
Forest Living
Welcome to the Forest. Immerse yourself in the sounds of nature, enjoy the flavors of our cuisine, and discover our Ayurvedic spa where the forest meets the lake.
A place to breathe
Nestled within a 120-hectare private estate, Furnas Lake Forest Living is a sanctuary designed for slowing down and embracing the rhythm of nature. Here, 21 thoughtfully crafted accommodations are woven into a lush agroforestry landscape featuring over 200 varieties of edible plants.
Rejuvenate in our Ayurvedic spa, savor estate-grown flavors at our restaurant, or lounge by our indoor and outdoor pools.
While it feels like a secluded world away, this tranquil retreat is just a scenic 40-minute drive from Ponta Delgada Airport (PDL) and five minutes from the renowned geothermal hot springs of Furnas.
Our Rooms
Our accommodations seamlessly blend architecture with the Azorean landscape using local volcanic stone and Japanese cedar. Every detail, from the large windows inviting the forest inside to the local craftsmanship, is curated to foster deep rest and connection with nature.
