Fodor's Expert Review Octant Furnas

A fine choice for a relaxing vacation in the thermal mecca of Furnas, this modern design-focused hotel offers guest rooms with exceedingly comfy beds and a top-notch restaurant leading to a cool indoor/outdoor lounge perfect for enjoying a cocktail. It also features two thermal pools: an enormous indoor pool topped by a glass cathedral ceiling and a lovely outdoor pool overlooking the forest, both accessible to guests 24 hours a day. Cozy and contemporary guest rooms have dark teal walls and brown leather accents; some include private terraces and plunge pools. The spa also includes a sauna and Turkish bath, as well as a well-stocked gym open to guests any time. Should hunger strike, À Terra restaurant is open all day for snacks and meals.
