Our family moved from New Zealand to São Miguel and we're trying to live a simple life, in close contact with nature. Douglas is from New Zealand, a surfer, keen fisherman, a creative carpenter and a diver. Tania is Portuguese and enjoys gardening and yoga. Our son Sansho loves spending time outdoors, exploring insects, fishing, swimming and playing with our dog Bean, always closely followed by our twin baby daughters Jade and Jasmim. We are a multicultural family and we love travelling and knowing new people and cultures.

Mosteiros is one of the most consistent spots for surfing in the island, rocky point breaks with fun waves and one of the best places for rock fishing and spearfishing, diving and snorkeling, directly across the road from the property. With some luck you may even see whales and dolphins passing by. For those who enjoy hikes, there are several marked trails that can be started straight from the house, to the water springs or the top of the Sete Cidades vulcano to view it’s stunning green and blue lagoons, one of the island most iconic spots. In town there is also a whale and dolphin watching charter, which also runs sunset cruises between Mosteiros and Ferraria, a thermal ocean pool where water reaches above 30ºC.
