Santa Barbara Eco Beach Resort

The Santa Barbara Eco Beach Resort is a collection of secluded villas on the north coast of Sao Miguel, overlooking the famous surf beach of Santa Barbara.

Compared to traditional-style Azorean properties, the Santa Barbara Eco Beach Resort is more contemporary in design, with a selection of purpose-built one and two bedroom villas, finished with mix of local cedar, reclaimed blackwood and polished concrete. Each villas has an open-plan living area with a small kitchen, an en-suite bedroom and a private sun terrace.

Although you’re self-catering, breakfast and evening meals are always available – served in the on-site restaurant. There’s also an outdoor pool overlooking the sea and a beach club bar, and the island’s surf school is just a short walk along the beach.
