hot_tub Check Hot Spring ConditionsCasa Santi sits on the western coast of São Miguel, the largest island in the Azores archipelago. The property is positioned steps from natural thermal hot springs at Ferraria and minutes from the iconic Sete Cidades crater lakes — two of the most sought-after destinations in the mid-Atlantic.
Everything is in place for full short-term rental licensing with a white-glove treatment — the estate works equally well as a private residence, a managed investment, or both.
Walking distance to the thermal waters at Ferraria — a feature almost impossible to replicate.
Unobstructed views where volcanic ridges meet the Atlantic horizon.
Local basalt stone, cedar wood, and contemporary glass — built to complement, not compete with, the landscape.
Configured to function as a private residence, a wellness retreat, or a high-yield short-term rental.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the volcanic ridgeline and draw natural light deep into every room. The layout is open and flowing — designed for both daily comfort and entertaining.
Local volcanic stone accents ground the contemporary finishes, while the orientation maximizes natural ventilation and passive solar gain throughout the year.

Direct access to the thermal waters at Ferraria — a unique natural amenity.
The Ferraria hot spring in Ginetes is one of the only places on Earth where volcanic thermal water meets the Atlantic Ocean. The result is a natural pool where hot and cold currents mix — creating a one-of-a-kind bathing experience right on the shoreline.
The best time to visit is during low tide, when the natural rock pool retains the warm thermal water and the ocean swell is calm enough to bathe safely. At high tide, the Atlantic rushes in and the spring becomes inaccessible.

Walking distance to the lighthouse — one of the best sunset viewpoints on the island.
