This property is excellent! Very spacious, clean, fantastic location, indoor parking. You are steps away from the local market, artisan bakery, botanical gardens, two grocery stores, mall, waterfront, coach bus connection area, many great restaurants and cafes, churches, car rentals, parkette, library, and museums. Luis is an amazing host. He was very quick in responding to any questions we had and sent us communications on upcoming cultural events and a weather warning. Very pleasant and has created a great place to stay.

Staying in Ponta

The property is perfect for staying in Ponta. Luis was easy to contact, and his property was very comfortable for us. The availability of indoor off street parking was fantastic, as the roads are tight, and crowded. Thank you again for letting us explore your island.

5-Star Stay in Ponta Delgada

Our stay in this short term rental was truly enjoyable. The location was perfect, situated in a quiet area, yet just a short walk from the heart of the city. This made it easy to explore Ponta Delgada and what the Azores have to offer, while having a peaceful place to return to at the end of the day. The property was clean, well maintained and equipped with everything we needed. We highly recommend it for anyone visiting Ponta Delgada and would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful cozy apartment in Ponta Delgada

Our family of 6 stayed and this lovely, cozy apartment for 3 weeks over Christmas and New Year and had a fantastic time. The kitchen was well stocked. The location was amazing. And the check in process was the smoothest I have ever experienced. The one time we had a small issue the host was fantastic about getting us sorted immediately. I would 100% recommend this apartment as.an excellent place to stay to explore the island of Sao Miguel. Thanks for the great holiday!

I think it's important to reinforce a few things. First, this advertisement is an honest view of the property and I had no surprises. It more than met expectations. Second, it's in a great location and I think if someone were looking for a good experience, this is one that can support not just a few days but even a couple of weeks. It's a fully equipped property. Third, the owner, Luis, is extremely responsive and extremely helpful. This always make a big difference. I enjoyed my experience with him a great deal. So, there is one bedroom that can support either a single person or adult couple. There are two more bedrooms that could accomodate either single persons, a couple or two kids each. That's super flexible.The kitchen is big enough to support a large group and that's helpful. There is a dishwasher and a washer and dryer and those are super helpful. I was super happy.

Very nice stay!

The apt is in the great location very close to center of town with lots of restaurants. The big bonus is its indoor parking spot. Parking can be challenging in the city and it's so nice to know there always will be parking spot. The apt is nicely maintained with everything you might need. It's a large apt enough space for everyone. The owner Luis is very nice and very responsive to questions you have. He is actually amazing and so responsible.

Perfect in every way!

This property is exactly as advertised. In a great location within walking distance to the city center & coast. The garage is a huge plus to keep your vehicle safe & off the streets. Rooms are very nice size plenty of room to relax after a full day of exploring the Island. Washer & dryer are a nice bonus also. (some English instructions might have been helpful, but we figured it out) Luis is a wonderful host that met us & helped us get settled in, with great suggestions & a nice welcome basket too. Thanks so much for a fantastic stay in Ponta Delgada!

Perfect location

The property is exactly like the pictures. The location is perfect for walking around Ponta Delgada and taxis are very easy to get. Luis is very responsive to any inquiries/questions. There is a farmers market close by with great fruit/vegetables and the grocery store is just down a bit further. The restaurant food is very good with lots of choices. Don't assume all menus are the same -- the picky eaters of our group were pleasently surprised at the number of food options that we found. Highly recommend this property!

lovely roomy apartment

The apartment is wonderful and the host was very accommodating. The neighborhood is great but anyone who walks a lot (like us) should be warned that the cobblestone sidewalks are very narrow and sometimes difficult to navigate. Clearly this is no reflection on the host or the apartment but it's good to know ahead of time what to expect.
