Holiday rentals with a patio in São Jorge

A beautiful place to stay on Pico and good location, it was really nice to be able to walk to the little bakery and a grocery store. If you are whale watching out of Lajes do Pico, the location is perfect. A great view of Mt Pico from the upstairs bedroom. Tania was really kind and responsive. The garden is very peaceful and cats are really sweet! The pathway to get to the cottages is a little narrow and bumpy, so if you are able to bring a duffle rather than a roller bag, you will probably have an easier time. I made it work with the roller bag, but it’s a bit tricky. Overall a very nice place to stay on Pico!

This comfortable cottage is located in a beautiful and peaceful setting near the bottom of a steep & curvy road. There is a lovely side view over the church to the neighboring faja & sea from the front of the house. The area is remote, and there are no large grocery stores or restaurants nearby. We bought food in Velas and were able to cook in the well equipped kitchen and dine on the front patio. Walking in the neighborhood is fairly limited. Having a car is essential to access other parts of the island. We did not get to meet Anabela, but she was quick to respond to questions and offered an easy and flexible check in/out. However, we had trouble finding the home. It was rainy and foggy upon on our arrival which made it more difficult, but using the recommended Waze app still took us to the wrong location. Make sure you have proper coordinates before starting your journey. Highly recommended for a quiet and relaxing get away.

I had an incredible time at Gigi house! From the moment I arrived, Gigi was super welcoming and made me feel right at home. The place was even better than the pictures – the sunsets need to be lived, it was perfect for chilling out after a day of exploring, and the had everything we needed. The pool and the sauna are TOP! The place was spotless and super comfy. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud, and I loved the little touches like the welcome basket. All in all, I can’t wait to come back!

Hidden gem, situated on the black rocks close to Porto Pim, Extraordinary place to stay. Didn‘t want to leave. Would love to come back

First of all, we did not stay in exactly this apartment. It is a complex with three apartments and we were informed about a week before, that they renovate the booked one. But to be honest, since we have been alone in the whole complex and could test the views of all three terraces of the apartments, our alternative accommodation had a nicer view to the ocean and Sao Jorge, than the originally booked apartment. So if it is the view you are going for, then look at Google Maps for highland homes in Pico - you can see all the apartments (the greatest one has a stunnig view). The trees were trimmed, so you can see the ocean in every room. A highlight is the lavastone, but you need to pack slippers for inside, the floor is very cold. Another highlight is the garden, it is like a botanic garden, with a lot of plants we have never seen before and absolutely beautiful. There is also an easy but nice hiking trail at the end of the road and since it is a dead end, there is no traffic too.

Great location for a peaceful and relaxing vacation. Very friendly and extremely helpful staff! Highly recommend

We had a very enjoyable time at this apartment in Urzilina. The location was great and a good base for getting around the island. Also there were many good restaurants nearby. Joselina was a super great host…very friendly and knowledgeable about the island. She went out of her way to share many good tips about the island. She was always very communicative throughout our stay. The accommodation was very modern and spotless with great amenities. The bed was very comfortable and we had some of our best sleeps in the Azores. We would certainly come back on our next trip to Sao Jorge. Highly recommended.

We had a great stay at Aurelio's place on the island of Pico. The inside is very open & spacious and is well equipped as far as the kitchen goes. The setting, looking out on the ocean and across the way to the island of Sao Jorge is amazing, with views from the great outdoor deck and also the large wrap-around windows in the kitchen. The gardens surrounded the house really added to the beautiful setting as well. The provided bananas were quite good and a nice touch. Aurelio was very friendly and was very informative. He gave great perspective on Pico & the Azores more broadly. We would highly recommend staying at his place!

Helio and Paula were fantastic hosts with a beautiful home in a great location above a bakery. The sunrise views over Pico were memorable and a fantastic way to start each day. The welcome basket, their advice, generosity and wealth of information made for a fantastic stay in Faial.
