Casa da Galeria - Azores Art of Hosting

Casa da Galeria – Azores Art of Hosting, opened in February 2022, offers tourist accommodation with an innovative concept of hospitality, focused on the fruition of contemporary art. The ‘Casa’ is the result of the considered and contemporary re-appropriation of a 19th-century property in the historical centre, 450m from the Portas da Cidade, 50m from the Carlos Machado Museum, 900m from the Senhor Santo Cristo dos Milagres shrine and from the Portas do Mar Natural Pool. We are part of ‘O Quarteirão,’ a creative and artistic neighbourhood, an intangible concept created by established cultural organisations and businesses in the local area and a must-see for anyone visiting the island. We have 9 apartments, formulated with your comfort in mind, five T1 (1 bedroom) and four T0 (studio), equipped with kitchenette, living/dining room, air conditioning, Smart TV, king-size beds, desk and free Wi-Fi, among other facilities. The bathrooms are equipped with shower, RITUALS toiletries, hair dryer and extra towels for the beach. The contemporary decoration shows the best of Portuguese furniture design and manufacture, and the original artworks are curated by Fonseca Macedo–Contemporary Art.

The accommodation units are complemented by amenities including a heated outdoor pool, solarium, sauna, steam room and gym. Guests’ electric cars can be charged for free at the 2 charging stations available in our private car park. We would also like to draw attention to the exhibition area, under the artistic direction of Fonseca Macedo – Contemporary Art, which, with periodic displays of its exhibitions, ensures that our guests’ visits are always different. Our breakfasts, prepared using homemade and regional products, can be enjoyed in the comfort and peace of the private dining area in each of the apartments. And in the evenings, our guests can socialise at our daily "Get Together". To make us even more unique, and in partnership with Fonseca Macedo – Contemporary Art, we offer our guests the possibility of coming into close contact with contemporary art, with guided tours of exhibitions in the gallery space or at specific locations in the island landscape, led by artists or art historians, in Portuguese and English.

There will be the opportunity to participate in workshops in small groups, led by multidisciplinary teams, according to the forms of expression chosen in each case (photography, drawing, watercolor, painting, collage), with or without prior experience, as well as masterclasses on theoretical topics such as ‘The Baroque in Ponta Delgada,’ ‘The influence of the land on the visual expression of contemporary artists’, ‘Contemporary Architecture versus Vernacular Architecture or the Orange Cycle’, in Portuguese and English. The tourist attractions that are not in the city centre can be found just a short and pleasant drive away along the island’s verdant roads, with highlights including the pineapple greenhouses (4km), the Sete Cidades massif with its numerous lakes (19 km), the Ferraria thermal baths (25km), Lagoa do Fogo volcanic lake (21km), Arquipélago - Contemporary Arts Centre, Ribeira Grande (17km), the islet of Vila Franca and the Queijadas da Vila factory (26km), the Gorreana tea plantation (31km), Lagoa das Furnas crater lake and Rosa Quental's ‘Bolos Lêvedos’ (Portuguese muffins), (44km), not forgetting the flower-filled county of Nordeste (59km). We’re waiting for you!
