The Blue House Azores | Ocean Tranquility
The sea views can be experienced from all the bedrooms, living areas and especially the garden’s ample deck with a long wood table, Adirondack lounge chairs, and a wide wood-fired BBQ. The plants growing in the garden are a variety of endemic coastal species that will bloom throughout the year.
The Capelas bay port is a 5-minute walk down the hill, with an easy access to dive into the ocean. The North Coast hiking trail crosses the Blue house door, which leads to other swimming spots through a beautiful nature hike.
The architects contrasted traditional basalt stone construction of the existing ruin with modern, insulated wood construction and an innovative facade made from recycled ocean plastic. The blue recycled plastic is an effort to capture and reduce pollution, re-utilising a short-term product and applying it to a long-term function of protecting the building from the open ocean and serving as a durable decking material.
By engaging local craftsmen, we are able to offer custom-built sustainably sourced furniture to create a fully developed living environment.
Should Neptune smile favourably on the Blue house during your stay, you will see pods of dolphins and/or whales passing by, framed by the large 5m (15’) living room window. Binoculars are available in the house for such occasions.
Park the car on the street in front of the house. Access via code

Blue House Azores
This was the most fantastic house we’ve ever had the privilege of staying at. Our family of four absolutely adored the Blue House. The location and views from the house are breathtaking and everything has been thoughtfully designed and decorated by the architect couple who designed the property on the site of an old Whalers’ tavern. Capelas is centrally located to most places on the island which made traveling to different destinations easy, and we got to enjoy being away from downtown at the end of the day. I hope we have the chance to stay here again someday.
The Blue House was a wonderful home away from home. From the many windows are beautiful views of the sea and coastline. The host welcomed us with a bottle of wine, local cheese and bread, and basics like eggs, butter etc… It is best to have a rental car as it is about a 20 min drive to the Ponta Delgada and the airport.
