Not our cup of Gorreana tea!
The hotel came highly rated and in some ways I can see why. The amenities are beautiful and very high end. However the hotel felt very stuffy, uptight and not as “comfortable” as we would have hoped. It may have been fine if we stayed there first on our trip but we stayed at an incredible property on the west side of the island first. We actually left Terra Nostra early and returned to the other one. Overall we just did not feel very welcomed at the property and it was just not warm.

Hidden Gem in the Atlantic
Terra Nostra's garden alone is worth the price/stay. The service is top-notch and the access to the garden and pools in off-hours is priceless. We loved the staff, amenities (AMAZING breakfast), and general atmosphere. This is a hidden gem in the middle of the Atlantic with very kind staff.

Quite how to best describe this property escapes us. Think tranquil garden plus 5 star amenities all wrapped up in to one amazing biophylic and geothermal experience. Definitely do the thermal pools, especially at night. Don't sleep on the pool, sauna and Turkish bath but especially take some time to stroll through the huge garden.

Feel the nature around you
Right at the Nostra Terra park and with easy parking. They have a pretty Terrace with light bites and live music. The hotel is located with easy access to the Eastern area of the island About 1 hour from the airport.

The hotel was a four star hotel with courteous, attentive staff. Food was excellent. The atmosphere was calming.. We had 24 hour availability of the thermal pool and gardens directly from the back door of the hotel.

This is a unique property in the middle of the Caldieras around Furnas. the hotel itself is elegant, the staff welcoming and the property grounds are extraordinary. There is a thermal pool on the property which many people visit for a dip in the waters, uests have robes and slippers to use since the water discolors clothing due to the iron in the water. There are incredible gardens through which guests can walk for hours. Many tour companies bring visitors to the gardens. This place was a slice of heaven. Bountiful full breakfast was included. Would highly recommend
