Nice stay
It is a famil, running guesthouse. There is a very nice view of the ocean and Mt. Pico. The stuff is exttemly friendly and always prepared to help you. They are very helpful with advice. They alsk offer transfer. I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful property, great location
The property was beautiful and close to the main road to get everywhere. The room was a nice size for 2 people although the beds were pushed together even though that wasn't what was requested. The room did smell a little like mold. The hosts were very nice and answered all our questions quickly. One negative that really affected my review was the no air conditioning. I understand that most of the area has no air conditioning, but the room only had a door with no screen. So to cool the room, we had to leave the door open which didn't feel 100% safe (especially at night) and which also let in bugs (and a cat once). We were gone for most of the day and with the humidity, the room was very stuffy and uncomfortable. I had to go out and buy a fan. I really liked the property but I would ask for a fan next time.

Idyllic stay in Sao Roque
Wonderful location, in a quieter part of Pico than the much busier Magdalena area, but still with restaurants, supermarkets and banking machines easily available. Peaceful, with beautiful views of the ocean and Sao Jorge island. Shared kitchen is good for limited food preparation. There are some ants and other bugs around, but this is not unexpected for a place surrounded by nature and where the windows and doors are open most of the time. Rooms are small and basic, but come with individual outdoor patios and very nice shared areas. I did not use the pool or the free loaner bikes, but the washer and dryer were a godsend after hiking in the heat and humidity. Very good wifi. Staff is very pleasant and helpful. You have to tell them the day before if you want the 9 euro breakfast, but I would do it at least once. Huge selection of delicious items -- best meal I had in the Azores. There is a very nice ocean natural pool for swimming less than a kilometer walk, with showers and changing rooms.

We had a nice stay. The location was good, we received a lot of information about things we could do and the facilities we're great (swimming poo, washing machine, kitchen). However, we initially didn't get the room we booked (it was smaller, did not have a bathtub and had quite some mold in the bathroom). When we addressed this we got a different nice room with a much better view (but only for the last night).

Great stay & value for money
There are 2 sections to the hotel. The new section seems to be much better equipped. The older section where we stayed could do with some renovation in future and lacked air conditioning which was a small problem when hot. The hosts were great and the service made this a great place to stay!

Clean guestrooms in a large house
We stayed in one of the double rooms, which is a guestroom inside the large Pico Dreams-Sportfish house. Our room had a futon, desk, TV, and ensuite bathroom. The kitchen and living area are shared in the house. This is like a mix between a bed and breakfast and a hostel. The living area (kitching and living room) are shared like a hostel but are much, much nicer, so the house itself has more of a bed and breakfast feel. The bed was comfortable and the view of the ocean from the house was very nice. (You can see Mount Pico on a clear day.) Like most houses on Pico Island, there isn't central heating. It did get cold during our November stay, so we used the space heater and blankets they provided. (If you are visiting during off-season, be prepared for cold nights.) The owner is very friendly, and the whole house was very clean. Unfortunately, Wifi is only available in the lobby/living area, which is stated clearly on the hotel description. (Even though the guestrooms are just a few yards away from the living area, the Wifi signal immediately disappears when you approach the room.) Because this is a house, there isn't a full-time lobby staff so you may have to call the owner to check-in.

Great place
Second stay and it is a great location if like me your intention is to walk a lot. 5 minutes to a mercado, 10 to a bar one way and a restaurant the other. 20 minutes from the ferry.

Fantastic Value for Money
We really enjoyed our stay at Sportfish! The room was spotless & serviced daily. Friendly Housekeeper did eveything to make sure guests we well looked after. If you are looking for great value for money accommodation, with good amenities on Pico island then this is a great choice I wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thanks for a great stay!
