On our way back from Furnas, still under the spell of the exotic gardens of the Terra Nostra botanical park, we headed to the south of São Miguel, following the winding roads of the island coast.
A mere fifteen metres separate the sea from the bay of volcanic rock where the White Exclusive Suites & Villas are located, the second project belonging to the Singular Properties family - and which opened two years after the inauguration of Santa Bárbara - whose Mediterranean features reveal João and Catarina Reis' passion for the Greek islands, without ever clashing with the mighty Azorean landscape.
If there is any premise that was pushed to the extreme in the conception of the project, it’s that nature – and tradition – are the principal amphitheatre of this supernatural spectacle, embedded in a lower area “that needed to be protected so as to be able appreciate this unique environment and context”, the owner reveals. White and the basalt stone stand out in what was once a holiday house located on a wine estate, in a project that would once again be assigned to the M-Arquitectos studio, and which would lead to the creation of nine one-bedroom suites and an intimate villa.

The stone arches adorning the high ceilings, the direct access to the outdoor areas (always maintaining the same paving so as to reinforce the sense of continuity between spaces), an oven in the original kitchen of the property and gorgeous verandas suspended over the sea, denote the unique beauty of each of the rooms, where the ubiquitous white simply provides the background for the breath-taking scenery. Then there are the nuanced details that enhance their refreshing character: the macramé and tapestry installations created by the artist Diana Meneses Cunha and the perfumed fragrances of the products by the Austrian brand Susanne Kaufmann.
