Step into the past and experience the timeless elegance of the Lounge at Hotel Terra Nostra, Santa Maria Island, Azores. This photograph, taken circa 1940, transports us back to a bygone era of luxury and relaxation. The Atlantic Ocean, dotted with isles and islands, stretches out beyond the large bay window, its tranquil waters reflecting the golden sunset. The room exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere, with plush armchairs and comfortable chairs arranged around low tables. A roaring fire crackles in the fireplace, casting a cozy glow over the polished wooden furniture. Men in smart suits and fedoras, perhaps weary travelers, sit and chat, enjoying a drink and the soothing ambiance. Hotel Terra Nostra, a Portuguese establishment, was a popular destination for those seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The modern lounge, with its tasteful decor and stunning views, offered a welcome retreat for guests to unwind and rejuvenate. The Azores, a volcanic archipelago located in the mid-Atlantic, were known for their natural beauty and therapeutic hot springs, making Hotel Terra Nostra an ideal choice for those seeking a rejuvenating getaway. This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of a bygone era, and invites us to imagine the stories and memories of the people who once occupied this beautiful space. The Lounge at Hotel Terra Nostra, with its timeless charm and breathtaking views, remains a testament to the enduring allure of the Azores and the power of a well-designed space to transport us to another time and place.
