RNT: 4/2018 Abrigo da Cascata - Casas de Campo

The great passion that we feel for the Island of São Jorge, with its almost 250km2 of pure nature, classified as a Natural Biosphere Reserve, inspired us to create the Abrigo da Cascata, a place surrounded by the waterfall that origins the denomination of this resort. The typical house has re-emerged from the ruins, turn into a cozy space that pretends to be, not only, an indoor place but also a starting point for adventure for whole friends and family.

Here you will be able to enjoy the tranquility of a rural space with all the comfort and amenities of a hotel. The space has been carefully designed to ensure harmony between the architectural simplicity of the traditional construction and the details of a modern decor. You can choose between two houses, with a total of 5 bedrooms, with a shared living room and kitchen where you can enjoy a spirit of community among guests.

The Island of São Jorge proves to be ideal for numerous activities that will surely boost your emotions, your body and your soul. The Abrigo da Cascata is located at the passage of one of the most relevant trails, which provides a walk for about three and a half hours, along the west coast. The waterfall is a meeting point for the practice of canyoning and the sea provides fun moments of nautical activities. Take advantage of the local culture and gastronomy. Points of interest with the possibility of guided tours will help you enjoy all the potential that this Island has to offer.
