Fully furnished holiday home with stunning views

Vivenda Xavier is situated at the little fisherman village named Porto Formoso, (the marvellous port). Just about 3 minutes from the vivenda you'l find is the local beach Praia dos Moinhos. A very particular small beach with outstanding sanitary facilities. Not far away you may enjoy a good cup of tea at Chá de Porto Formoso. One of the two old family business in Europe involved in tea production. This, all fashioned with the little fisherman port and the local church from 1509, turns this little place into a unique spot in Europe. The inhabitants make their living today predominantly from agriculture, cattle breeding, and fishing.

Great vacation
We had a wonderful vacation. The house was very comfortable, kitchen was well equipped. The location is excellent for travelling around the island, and the local beach is a 10 minute walk away. The owner was very helpful, with a good binder available for suggestions of activities. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone staying on San Miguel.

Very well equipped and great host
Very scenic location on the north coast provided great central hub for touring the island. The house was very comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. Nearby restaurants were excellent and reasonably priced. Luis was easy to contact and offered great advice.. We had a great week even though the weather didn't fully cooperate.

Great week
We had a truly lovely time at Luis's place. Our kids loved it and we appreciated the baby gates, high chairs, and pack and play. The views of the ocean, and cows on a hillside, from the outdoor dining table were sublime. As others have noted, Luis is a top-of-the-line host who pays a ton of attention and wants to make sure you have a stellar stay.

Porto Formoso stay
Our host was terrific, not only in ensuring the property was wonderful, but also in helping with recommendations in the area. We loved being away from Ponta Delgarda, but still just a short drive to anywhere on the island. The beach is great. You will not regret booking this property.

Living the dream
We stayed for 3 nights, wished we had a week at Vivienda Xavier. We loved the property, amenities, and location. We fully enjoyed the sound of the ocean & waterfall from the patio in the morning & evenings, and the activities on the island, as well as the quaint beach and trail with waterfall within walking distance. We are already talking about returning with additional family to enjoy the island and the property. We absolutely loved our time, and Luis was a great, very communicative host.

Best area to set up home to explore the Island
Xavier provided everything we needed to feel at home on the island. Beach towels, full kitchen, fully stock bathrooms and laundry facilities. BBQ, outdoor dining with views of a waterfall and coastline from a terrace provides an outdoor respite. Being able to come back to this home after a full day of exploring was such a treat.

could not be better
Luis was an amazing host and takes great care and pride in his property --- it really felt like we were staying at a friend's house. Fantastic views, easy access to beach and trails, but still felt comfortably off the beaten path. Very spacious and peaceful. If you stay here please look out for the neighborhood siamese cat we named "george".
