Quinta dos Mistérios

The Quinta dos Mistérios is a unique heritage tourism accommodation located on the island of São Jorge, in the Azores – Portugal. Nestled in the heart of the Atlantic, this 17th-century manor house offers an authentic local lodging experience, combining comfort, nature, heritage, and history all in one place.

 A Manor House in Harmony with the Volcanic Landscape

The name “Mistérios” in the Azores refers to lava fields formed by volcanic eruptions that occurred after the islands were settled. One such phenomenon, the Queimada Volcano, erupted in 1580, shaping the landscape where the Quinta dos Mistérios now stands. This geological legacy is an intrinsic part of the place’s identity and sets our accommodation in São Jorge apart.

The manor house, built in the 17th century and classified as a property of historical and architectural interest, has belonged to the same family for nearly 400 years. In 2023, it was carefully restored, respecting its original design, and transformed into a sustainable and cultural tourism project that celebrates the heritage of the Azores.
