White Exclusive Suites & Villas

Driftwood woven into white-washed interiors and every room pointed at the open Atlantic, this boutique hotel sits on São Miguel, the largest island of the Azores, a volcanic archipelago roughly a thousand miles from the Portuguese mainland. The villa claims a cliffside perch with a saltwater plunge pool. A small restaurant serves Azorean seafood and local wine. Ten rooms total, so the kind of place that books up before you've finished thinking about it. It holds a Michelin Key.
