Why book a home in the Azores?

The Autonomous Region of the Azores, more popularly known as the Azores Islands, is a Portuguese archipelago located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean that has become a very exotic tourist destination. Formed by nine islands that have not been reached by mass tourism, which ensures a quiet holiday without stress. Each one of them with an endless number of attractions. Without a doubt, its beaches are its main tourist attraction, although it is true that they have many other points of interest related to nature. In this sense, most of the rentals that can be found in them are located in small urban nuclei close to the beach or at the foot of the mountains. Therefore, those belonging to Horta, Ponta Delgada and Angra do Heroismo, the most interesting enclaves, are usually small quiet rentals and one or two rooms.
