Graciosa Visit

Our stay was great. The mill was a perfect base to explore the island from. It was well kept and had all the things we needed to be able to cook and spend time after our days exploring. The owner was very responsive to any questions.Overall this was a great place to stay.

A peaceful retreat!

A wonderful, restful stay in a unique home. João has lovingly restored this historic windmill to make it modern and comfortable. An excellent place to escape the stress of the world and experience Graciosa.

The property was great. Joao L. was flexible after I needed to extend my stay. Sonia and MOM was great and all the unexpected FREEBIES (food). I LOVE THIS PLACE. I definitely recommend to any visitors to this Azorean Island.

I honestly cannot say enough about how wonderful this place was!! Not only was the property unique but communication with João was consistent and clear and very helpful. The fresh bread delivery every morning was amazing as was the dinner they was waiting for me due to my later arrival. I would definitely stay here again!! Lots of parking and close to all amenities. Obrigada João!!!

Sehr schön

Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen, obwohl sich unsere Ankunft verzögert hatte. Alles war in einem sehr sauberen Zustand, die Einrichtung ist wirklich komplett. Es ist eine traumhafte Ferienunterkunft mit sehr schöner Aussicht.
