Alma do Pico

Stay in a butterfly or a turtle at Alma do Pico.

Brainchild of owners Federica and Fabio, these gorgeous woodland apartments work in complete harmony with their 20km square of Japanese cedar surroundings. There are fourteen apartments in all – twelve in the shape of butterfly wings, two in the shape of a turtle, and all include a bedroom, kitchenette, bathroom, veranda and living room. There’s also an on-site bar and restaurant, and shared outdoor pool looking out across the channel to the neighbouring island of Faial.
