Convento São Francisco
In the splendid scenary of São Miguel Island (Azores), this 17th century listed monastery facing the sea offers the absolute quietness of a secluded space out of time, filled with the waves echo, old Gregorian chants and the music of the cloister fountains.
With big terraces, several lounges in different floors (and tower) and only 12 rooms in a huge area – including a big garden (surrounded by pineapple greenhouses), a squash and swimming pool. The striking architecture makes it a magnificent backdrop for exchanging your vows or dancing the night away.
