The Azores, Portugal
Octant Ponta Delgada
Savour sustainable luxury in this island hotel
In the heart of São Miguel lies Octant Ponta Delgada, where you will discover the natural beauty and sophistication of the Azores all in one place. Octant Ponta Delgada offers 123 rooms and suites overlooking the turquoise sea, with all the rooms decorated in shades of green and featuring wooden accents, so you can immerse yourself in the nature of São Miguel before you even leave the hotel.
Head down to the hotel’s restaurant, À TERRA, which showcases the culinary traditions and flavours of the Azores. With a wide variety of meats that come directly from the pastures, artisanal cheeses, fresh seafood, and organic products, the food prepared in Octant Ponta Delgada’s restaurant will certainly satisfy your palate .
Located on the seventh floor, next to the pool, is the rooftop whale-watching bar. Here you can enjoy a wide variety of drinks and light meals, whilst admiring the magnificent view of the sea and the creatures within.
Indulge your senses in Octant Ponta Delgada’s spa, which emphasises the strong connection the hotel has with São Miguel through the use of 100% organic products and locally produced ingredients, such as essential oils from Laurus Azorica and Cryptoméria, and Azorean milk.
Sandwiched between the cosmopolitan lifestyle of the marina and the more exotic sprawling land of São Miguel, Octant Ponta Delgada is the perfect base for travellers to return to after exploring. Cycle or walk the trails around São Miguel, paddle your way across the lagoons, or hold your breath and go canyoning downriver to discover waterfalls and hot springs.
Embark on an adventure to an island of volcanoes and meet the local people who take care of the fauna and flora. They’ll show you how and where to watch whales and dolphins in a more sustainable and careful manner, so you can return to your hotel at the end of a busy day knowing you’ve travelled responsibly during your stay in Portugal.
