Solar dos Cantos is a family home surrounded by 1.5 hectares of botanical gardens. Just a 15-minute walk from Ponta Delgada, on the island of São Miguel, Azores, our boutique hotel is a true haven of well-being. Here, greenery envelops us and the birdsong harmonizes with the serene urban landscape and the horizon overlooking the ocean. --- #### Modern and vintage hand in hand. The natural elements and tones echo the lush gardens, creating a perfect harmony between past and present. The 15 rooms, modern in terms of comfort and design, were conceived to bring the outdoors indoors, with contemporary décor complemented by selected vintage pieces from the property's 19th-century collection.
