Waterfront Living

As soon as we walked out the doors into the deck we were blown away by the view of the Volcano directly off shore. There is an almost 180 degree view of the ocean and the setting is superb.

Beatiful location with a nice view at the sea. It was great. We didn’t had any contact with the owner but not a big problem for us. The dishwasher doesn’t work good, it stays dirty. All other things where good.

Beautiful home and wonderful host!

Family of 7 enjoyed our stay here for 5 nights- the home is beautiful, clean, and spacious in a safe neighborhood with parking. Lovely location and view! The town of Vila Franca was perfect for a home base to explore the entire island- quaint town, and marina just a short 10 minute walk away. Can book whale watching from this marina too. Huge grocery store just a 3 minute drive- we picked up delicious breakfast and sandwiches for picnic from the cafe inside. Really great restaurants near by- Caloura Bar, Casa do Abel, and Atlantico- all recommended by our most gracious host. Loved having the pool, but too cold for us to swim in late May. Will have to go back! Would strongly recommend this home! Obrigada Robert!

Absolutely Wonderful

The location of the property is amazing. The view of the ocean never gets old. We were able to walk to town and the beach quite easily. Beware that it is hilly and some of the streets lack sidewalks. The inside of the house is more than adequate. It is a bit dated, but we didn't go to the Azores to sit on a designer couch. There are three bathrooms and 5 bedrooms. No one had any complaints about the beds.The kitchen has plenty of equipment although we used very little. The pool was great. Very clean.

Fantastic Family Vacation

We have travelled to many places and stayed at many resorts but this was by far the BEST place ever, especially for 7 family members. Roberto went out of his way to make us welcome, meeting us at the airport, showing us some sites on the way to the villa, and gave us tips on where to eat and what to see. The villa is exactly as shown, the pool was awesome, and the ocean views were spectacular. The property was within walking distance of the village of Vila Franca do Campo and 2 local beaches. There was plenty of room for 7 adults and more to spare. The house was well stocked, we only needed food and clothing. Roberto was readily available when we needed him. We would highly recommend this villa and hope to return again in the future.

Check what you are paying for

Unfortunately I have to say there was a little "Bait and Switch" going on. On arrival I met with maybe the wife of Roberto, and was informed that we had been placed in a different house than the one we rented, apparently they thought it was better suited to our party. The house we were put in was not anywhere near the image of the one we rented, to add to that there was broken glass all around, mold, broken screen doors, sliders that where almost impossible to open, windows all etched and not clean. The pool wasn't very clean. Although Roberto had said we could enter early and leave late (which I found very accommodating of him (whom we didn't meet at all) our overall expreiance was not the best.

Wonderful house and convenient location, just a couple of minor issues

Outstanding spacious house, lovely pool and yard with picnic tables, grill, view of ocean and nearby island. Walkable to beach, town, and harbor, though roads are narrow and some areas have no sidewalks. Glitches--2 days there was very little, then no hot water (and we didn't all shower at once!) and no response from owner. Grass mowing and weed whacking didn't need to be done one afternoon, annoying noise and disruption, and the pool was full of grass clippings--owner did respond when I complained. Little things like no paper towels or shower soap and very little toilet paper and hand soap. We bought all these items but expected they would be provided. Three bedrooms streetside--unexpected traffic noise and barking dogs during the night and early morning, just be aware. Washer but no dryer, small clothesline. Overall, a GREAT place, and i don't like to complain--but sometimes the devil's in the details. We would consider returning, so the issues weren't that bad! Awesome trip for 9 of us!!!

très belle situation géographique mais contrat non respecté

Notre surprise a été grande puisque nous nous sommes retrouvés dans une autre maison que celle que nous avions louée, maison deux fois plus petite et moins bien agencée pour recevoir 5 couples (référencée sur ABRITEL ID 6222008a au lieu de notre contrat ID 409020. Nous avons été contraints d’accepter cette situation car nous n’avions pas été prévenu et nous risquions de nous trouver sans logement dès le 23 mai au soir. Notre mécontentement porte sur le fait que le contrat que nous avons signé avec ABRITEL n’a pas été respecté de la part du propriétaire, celui-ci nous louant une autre maison avec un standing et des caractéristiques différents. Les échanges avec le propriétaire ont été difficiles car il n'était pas sur place au début de notre séjour. Les deux maisons sont très bien placées mais l'une fait 400 m² et l'autre 200. La présentation photos des deux propriétés est savamment présentée sur le site avec un mélange des deux maisons. Les chambres de la maison que nous avons eu sont plus petites, moins bien exposées, fenêtres de mi-hauteur donnant sur un mur (à la place de vues sur mer dans l’autre maison) et sans aucun rangement. Les équipements de la maison que nous avions sont disparates au niveau du matériel de cuisine. C’est propre, mais la vétusté des peintures et des meubles commence à se faire ressentir. Nous étions 10 personnes avec une table de séjour de 6 places! Le mobilier de jardin est vétuste. Attention à bien verrouiller votre contrat avec le propriétaire!

Renter Beware!

We booked this large home for 10 nights, over 6 months before our family trip. There were 9 of us and we wanted space to relax and a base to enjoy Sao Miguel. This home provided a good amount of space, the yard with pool was beautiful and the location was great. Those are the good points. However, I gave it two stars for several reasons. The biggest reason is that the landlord/renter cancelled our last night only 3 days before our arrival. We were left with no place to stay for our last night since all of our flights were booked the following day. That left us with having to find lodging on very short notice. Needless to say, we were not happy at all. The owner reimbursed us for one night. But one night’s reimbursement was not nearly enough to cover the costs for lodging for all of us. The owner found an apartment that “slept 5” but that was it. He said he couldn’t help us otherwise. Apparently, after doing some research, we discovered that VRBO allows hosts to basically, do whatever they want and that the relationship is between the owner and renter and that VRBO does nothing to help secure services, alternatives or even take action against owners that cancel people’s reservations. . So, please beware. The house was lovely, in general…but it did not have a washer and dryer, as was stated on the VRBO website. It only had a washer. And, with the amount of rain that Sao Miguel gets (and we got) , it is difficult to dry clothes on a clothesline. It also advertised 3 bathrooms, including 3 showers. Unfortunately the 3rd bathroom only had a toilet and sink, not a shower, as listed on the website. We were aware that there was no air conditioning in the house and that , in general, many rentals do not have AC. However, there were no fans in the home, neither overhead or freestanding. And, since we were there in Sept with temps in mid to upper 70’s and high humidity, it got very warm. We needed to open all sliding doors and there were no screens. In general, there were not a lot of bugs, but at night, several of us got numerous bug bites during our stay. Lastly, the website says it is walking distance to the beach and to main town which it is not. A recommendation is to put in overhead fans and at least some screens to help with airflow. We loved our experience on the island, just were disappointed with our renting experience.

Perfect family getaway

We loved our time here and Roberto was super helpful (even when our flight home got canceled and we were scrambling for a place to stay an extra night). The house is beautiful, I loved falling asleep listening to the waves. The pool was great to have for the kids and plenty of space for my husband, our kids, my parents and our nanny. The house was very peaceful, near a couple pretty and Sandy beaches as well as the marina for water activities and easy to drive to other parts of the island. Given our group size we ate most dinners at home and the kitchen was fully stocked. We were there in mid July and the ocean breeze was perfect (didn’t miss having air conditioning). Thanks again!

Eine sehr schöne Woche

Ein sehr schönes Haus, wo aber mal wieder etwas getan werden müsste. Der Vermieter ist super nett und sehr unkompliziert. Wir sind jetzt schon zum dritten Mal auf den Azoren und es ist immer wieder Traumhaft. Zum Haus muss ich sagen, im Winter fehlt eine Heizung, nicht wegen der Kälte sondern wegen der Feuchtigkeit. Unsere Sachen waren eine Woche lang feucht aber auch das wäre für mich kein Grund das Haus zu meiden. Der Garten ist wunderschön und zum Relaxen ganz toll. Very nice 😊
