BEACH HOUSE - Casa das Hortênsias - STUNING VIEW - 6 sleeps
There is so much to do within walking distance from this house. The beach! Enchanting hiking trails! And two good restaurants. Again all walkable from the house. Plus this is a great place to start a visit to other places in the island.

Hotel Gaivota Azores
We had a great stay! Breakfast was nice, rooms were very clean, very friendly staff, convenient nearby parking. Only complaint was that the AC unit made some weird noises at night, despite being off.
