This boutique hotel is an ideal stop for travellers exploring the island by bike, combining comfort, wellbeing and a strong connection to the unique environment that defines Furnas.

Wellness plays a central role in the hotel’s identity. Guests have access to thermal pools fed by natural geothermal waters, as well as spa facilities designed to relax muscles and restore balance. For cyclists, this is an invaluable part of the experience, allowing the body to recover naturally after demanding rides through São Miguel’s varied terrain. The combination of warm waters, peaceful spaces and attentive service turns recovery into a highlight of the stay.
Dining at the hotel reflects the same thoughtful approach. Meals are prepared using fresh, local ingredients, with menus that balance flavour and nourishment. Breakfast provides a strong start to the day, while evenings invite guests to enjoy relaxed dining that celebrates Azorean products and culinary traditions.
The location of Furnas Boutique Hotel Thermal & Spa also encourages exploration beyond the bike.
