The house was very clean and comfortable. We ate breakfast on the front covered porch every day of our 7-day stay. For several nights, we built a fire in the outdoor brick BBQ and enjoyed salmon, steak, and tuna we purchased from the nearby grocery store. The grounds of the property are spacious, and we felt as if we were living in a park. The location was central to everything we wanted to do on the island. Quite a memorable vacation!
Rainbow as seen from the front porch. Not uncommon.

Beautiful slice of paradise! Especially if you love the sounds of nature! Waking up to birds and roosters every morning was a delight. Sunsets from the deck were magnificent, the yard and bushes were lush and green. Perfect location, easy access to both sides of the island. The few times we had a question or needed assistance we were responded to promptly. Would love to stay here again some day!

A Slice of Paradise

A gorgeous 2 bed/2 bath house a short car trip from everything. House is within a gated walled area, beautifully kept with lots of flowers and trees. A great view towards Ponto that's even better from the second floor terrace. Behind the house is a beautiful view of the hills. We will definitely stay again!

Island paradise

Our stay was amazing- just a perfect get away- so relaxing in every way. The place is even better than advertised- so roomy with lounge chairs to enjoy the morning sun and evening sunsets on an upstairs patio. Awake to the cacophony of bird song and the energizing island- it was private and peaceful. Thank you Armando!

Enjoyed but could be better

We enjoyed our stay, however our realistic feedback: great quiet peaceful location, pretty views, good highway access, 5 min to grocery, property mgr was quick to help with issues (power outage, entrance gate stuck). Inside needs improvements: kitchen needs a thorough cleaning, very poor lighting in all rooms and furniture is dark so inside house is quite gloomy, beds are ok but pillows rock hard, smells musty, bedrooms could use ceiling fans, had a few large roaches inside when we arrived but that's common in this climate. There are cows, roosters and dogs in the area (not on the property) so you will occasionally hear them in the distance (and maybe smell manure), it didn't bother us because we like the country, but it could bother others.

Awesome get away, lots of space to stretch out

Beautiful property, with wonderful and responsive hosts. Team of local support that provided anything we needed. Washing machine and line for drying worked great for us. Well stocked kitchen. Beautiful top deck to relax and see the city lights in the distance at night and ocean during the day. Would highly recommend a stay at this typical Portuguese home. ❤️

Azores sister adventure

We loved the house and location is central to quickly access north and south coasts of the island. Property plantings were special and having a working gardener planting out the summer crops was fun to watch. Any questions were quickly addressed by owners or the property caregivers. They take pride in the island and in their property. Highly recommend. Abrigado! Armando, Mary, Helena, Pedro and Frederico. We hope to see you again!

Nice villa, which need some upgrading

Fantastic garden, nice view, peaceful district, helpful and kind owner. We had all we need to have a nice time in the villa, some negativs with the belonging in the house. Kitchen and one of the bathrooms was a little bit older, needs some reparing and one of the beds upstairs is not so god. I missed to have a drying machine.

Great location and value on Sao Miguel

My friends and I enjoyed our stay in Vivenda B. It was in a great location for us to explore the island. Before booking we did have some confusion regarding which amenities were part of Vivenda A and which were part of Vivenda B; I'd prefer to have seen these as two separate listings. Though we didn't end up needing the washing machine, we found out that it's not in the house, but rather is in another spot on their property. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and thought it was a great value for a few days on Sao Miguel.

An Adventure in the Azores

We had a wonderful vacation on Sao Miguel this June and stayed at this villa. It was a perfect size for our family of 4 with a modern kitchen and 2 roomy bathrooms. The grounds and gardens are gorgeous and well maintained. We rented the owners mini-van through Car Amigo to get us around the island, A car rental is a must. The van was older and we had a few problems with it when we started our week but overcame them. We were picked up at the airport by the owners housekeeper Helena who was lovely. She gave us a quick tour of the area, showed us the supermarket and around the villa. Armando checked on us daily with many suggestions for area attractions and was very helpful when we had questions or issues. There is a washing machine but no dryer so don't do your wash on a rainy day. There are plenty of clotheslines to dry your clothes though ,so plan accordingly. The mattresses are a bit firm, more then we are used to so we had to adjust to that, and play musical beds until we found the right fit. My husband is 6ft 7in so he struggled to fit in the bed, but thats not unusual. The second floor porch is lovely to have your morning coffee! The area is ideal because it's close to the city but in the country. Cows graze on the hillside pasture across the street and the sound of the doves in the morning is so peaceful. The market is a 5 minute drive and very affordable, wine and cheese are amazing and the people are friendly and helpful. The area attractions are fairly close: thermal baths, a waterfall, beaches, markets, botanical gardens, scenic overlooks etc. The roads are well marked and maintained, the island is clean and not many bugs! It's like the Caribbean without the heat. I would recommend the villa to anyone, it's a clean, comfortable home with all the modern conveniences you need. Thanks Armando for a wonderful stay!!!

Excellent home from home

I (Dave) stayed for 3 weeks to escape the Canadian winter and to get some biking and hiking exercise. My wife, sister and 2 daughters joined me for the last week to tour. The ladies rated the house and extensive grounds excellent, particularly the log fireplace in the living room. The rural location, set in the volcanic hills near the village of Cabouco was very beautiful and I did a lot of interesting bicycling on quiet well surfaced roads. The January weather was great for outdoor activity, daytime highs about 17 to 19 C, overnight about 14 C, very little rain, overnight, and plenty of sun. We had only very minor problems, and the owners, Armando and Mary were only a phone call away, were very helpful and themselves called on neigbours to assist us. We would love to return.

Nice house with some Unfortunate circumstances

My husband and I planned to stay a week at Vivenda A the second week of June. Armando was very helpful at answering all my questions before we arrived and arranged for his housekeepers to pick us up at the airport and show us around on our way to the property. The grounds and views are spectacular. The house is roomy and clean. Unfortunately it was unusually hot and humid and the house was ver damp. The beds are small so my husband and I slept in separate rooms. We had to open the inside windows( there are shutters and metal grates on the outside, that we were told not to open) to get some air in the rooms. There were many dogs in the area that barked all night. I had to put music on to drown out the barking. There is also a cow pasture next door and although it is very pastoral to look it,it can send smells into the house if the wind is blowing uphill. We left two day early because there were large brown cockroaches in the kitchen and bedroom. I am aware that these are common in hot and humid areas ( my son has them sometimes in NC) but this wasn’t one or two flying in. The screens were closed at all times and we killed 4 on the kitchen counter, 1 in the sink, 3 on the floor and a couple in the bedrooms. When I am on vacation I don’t want to be spraying for bugs. I read all the other reviews before I booked this property and no one mentioned the things I did, so I don’t know if this was unusual but I do believe it needs to be mentioned. Armando was very concerned about us leaving early and wanted to rectify the situation but I just wanted to get home to my own bed.

Charming, Beatiful and Cozy!

We stayed two weeks at this property and enjoyed every second. Armando and Mary, although they were not present, kept in touch and gave us great advices on where to go to enjoy our stay. The property is spacious and well kept, the fireplace was a very nice touch for the colder April nights and you have everything you need in the house. I would definitely recommend this charming property and might very well be renting it again in the future.
