About Moinho Da Mo Da Praia

This simple rural hotel is set in Graciosa Island. Windmills are a card-to-visit the island resulting from bygone times when the Graciosa Island was considered the “Azores Barn” for its extensive production of cereals.

In our days the mills no longer have their original use and many were being adapted as housing. The “Mó da Praia” was one of the last mills to grind cereals on the Island.

The name given to the mill (“Mó da Praia”) refers to an indispensable artifact to the miller activity (the “Mó” – millstone) and also to its excellent location next to the only beach with sand in all the Graciosa Island, in the village of “São Mateus (Praia – Beach)”, located at the foot of “Caldeira da Graciosa” (Graciosa Caldera).

The old annex allowed the alternative of grinding without the use of wind, allowed the construction of access by internal stairs to the body of the mill.

The annex has been expanded to contain the social area with modern features, composed by living room, kitchenette, toilet and a wind sheltered outdoor terrace by a long wall.

Next to the stairs you can see a section of the tunnel through which they passed the straps that connected the wheel motor to the grinding part, which was recovered and is on the ground floor of the mill on exhibition.

On the mill body you have one double bedroom in the first floor and one bunkbed in the second floor.
