White Hotel

Perched atop a basalt cliff overlooking the southern coast of São Miguel island, the resort's monochromatic tones imbue a sense of volcanic soulfulness. The stillness, tranquility and ocean breezes make this Azores retreat a must stay.

Perched atop a basalt cliff overlooking the southern coast of São Miguel island, the resort's monochromatic tones imbue a sense of volcanic soulfulness. The stillness, tranquility and ocean breezes make this Azores retreat a must stay.

Meters from the Atlantic coast, White is the result of a passion that João and Catarina Reis share for creating unique, intimate places in singular landscapes. The devotion to providing their guests with an exclusive experience, where time crawls at another pace and nature controls our rhythms, is emblematic of a stay at White.

 

The Details

What makes it Kobu

Singular Properties is currently developing an organic farming project to grow our own produce. The goal is to supply our restaurants with incredibly fresh, tasty and healthy organic produce at competitive prices, while promoting and developing an ecologically- and socially-responsible production chain that is integrated into our entire operation. Their organic farm project is based on a chain of trust and sustainability with the aim of knowing and controlling the various stages of the food production cycle, right up to the table in our restaurants.
With more than 100m of cliff front, White has been designed to make this an exclusive space. Each area is filled with unique views that makes it difficult to choose where to luxuriate: yoga in the hut, a cocktail by the pool, enjoying breakfast in any of the spaces, or simply watching the sunset from the fire pit.
