The best place to stay!

We have been to the Azores many times and this place is by far the best. It has the most amazing views and it is close to the airport and the cities. Check in and check out was a breeze. The home had everything we needed. It was a great experience and we will be staying again!

Of the 4 homes we stayed at in Azores this was our favorite. It was close to swimming and the boardwalk along the ocean. It’s an easy walk to the bus stop. The church is right down the road as well as 4 restaurants within a 5-10 minute walk. I loved going to sleep listening to the ocean and the local birds. The neighbor has a dog that barks often, but again, it was our favorite compared to several homes! We expect to visit again next time we come! The kitchen had everything we needed, including coffee and tea to get started, spices etc.

The host Paulo Gomes was amazing. Very helpful and very easy to talk to. Very available when we needed something. The apartment was very beautiful spacious and clean. The location and the view looking out into the ocean was spectacular. We never got tired of looking at the panoramic view of the mountains behind us, the ocean in front of us made our stay very enjoyable. Strongly recommend this apartment.

Spacious apartment with wonderful views!

We had a great time at this great apartment. The rooms are spacious with high ceilings. The apartment is well equipped and the beds are comfortable. We especially enjoyed the large balcony with its fantastic view of the ocean and the sunset! The location is perfect to explore the whole island by car. You can park the car on a large car park directly at the premises. Within walking distance there are two possible swimming possibilities in the ocean. Communication was easy and fast. We can definitely recommend this place!
