Nothing says “I need some time away from it all” like putting 800 nautical miles between yourself and the nearest landmass.
Casa da Petra is your home away from home on São Jorge Island, Azores. Set on a lush hillside, the front patio overlooks the channel between São Jorge and Pico, with Portugal’s tallest mountain as your backdrop.
Built on the ruins of a century-old stone house, much of the original volcanic basalt was preserved. The house sits on the island’s south-facing slope, surrounded by wild, green landscapes. Perfect for group escapades and family trips.
To make your stay even more seamless, we offer a discount voucher at check-in for car rental on the island, helping you explore São Jorge with ease and flexibility.
The Atlantic is calling—come and experience it for yourselves!
