Summary: The two bedroom unit where we stayed was lovely with vaulted ceilings in the living areas, a wood stove, comfortable furnishings and a well-equipped kitchen. The views from the windows front and back were gorgeous - ocean on one side and mountains at the back. Marion, the owner, was an absolutely great host - kind, sensitive, super friendly and helpful! She gave us lots of good suggestions for things to do and see. Despite not having the best week of weather, we totally enjoyed our stay! Many thanks to Marion

Summary: We thoroughly loved our week stay here. Everything on the island was in easy access and a short 1.5 km walk you were in the centre of Ribeiro Grande. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable. The highlight for us was Marion’s hospitality which began with a guided 30 min tour of the village to orient us. Everyday met with friendly conversation and suggestions. A peaceful oasis.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay. It is a great place, also with a baby. The big garden and the lovely animals are perfect for a more lazy day or afternoon but it is also a great central place to discover the island.
Richard and Barbara K. Nov 12, 2022 06:50:38 PM
Summary: Our hostess Marion could not have been more warm, genuine, cheerful and welcoming. The cows next door, the friendly cats and dogs, the garden flowers, views of the mountains and sound of the surf combine to make a truly relaxing base camp from which to explore the island. Marion had excellent recommendations for food and activities. What a pleasure!! We highly recommend.

Summary: The apartment was clean and basic. The property was very pretty. Here are the two issues we had. The driveway in and out is very, very narrow and on one side is about a 12-18 inch drop off of a concrete and stone wall. The turn from the house onto this driveway is very tight and the drop off is very overgrown. There was no way to tell it was there. Turning a reasonable distance from the house and you drive off the ledge, which we did unfortunately. No warning from the property owner. When it happened, Marion made it seem like we couldn’t drive and this never happens. Her husband let the cat out of the bag however and told us it was the third time in just a few months that a renter had fallen off the wall with their car. Why couldn’t they put up a sign of this is a repeated occurrence or some sort of barrier. Luckily we were able to get the car back on the road with a jack and some blocks. The owners, who knew this was happening to people, acted like it was all our fault. The last evening we were there we wanted to do some laundry. It was only 9:00 pm and the listing states as part of the amenities a washer and dryer. No mention that they were only available at the convenience of the host as they are inside a locked door. We texted the host, Marion, and she said she was in bed already. It was only 9:00 and I mentioned that the listing said that a washer and dryer were available. She then got up and loudly knocked on our door. When I answered it she could not have been more rude and unwelcoming. Such a difference from all the other people we had encountered in Portugal. I was shocked at how incredibly rude she was telling us how late it was. She would not let us use the washer and dryer unless she did the laundry. We ended up taking our dirty clothes with us to the next place we stayed where we had no issues doing the laundry ourselves. I would not stay here again. The rest of our stay was fine however.

Summary: The home is on a beautiful piece of property on the edge of Ribiera Grande. Beautiful views and lots of space to move around. Marion was the most gracious host, offering local restaurant recommendations and a stocked fridge with beer, jams, and local eggs. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking to stay on Sao Miguel.
Jennifer H. Aug 1, 2022 06:00:36 PM
Summary: Quiet and comfortable lodgings, friendly, non-intrusive but helpful hosts,. Lovely gardens. Possible to walk to town for good restaurants, etc. but a longish walk, convenient for driving excursions further afield. (Not specific to this VRBO, but visitors to Sao Miguel should reserve rental cars as far in advance as possible, at least as of this writing; exploring the island is easiest with a car, and much cheaper with advance booking. )

Summary: good property in good location. Can walk into town from accommodation
Ian M. Jul 18, 2017 09:15:44 AM
Summary: We really enjoyed our stay with Marion and her husband. The space was very comfortable and we had plenty of room for four (two adults and two young children). Very peaceful & quiet location just outside of town (a little too far to walk, but an easy 10 minute jog/run) The kids loved all the animals and small pool. Would definitely recommend.
