A Wonderful Stay in Terceira

The home is lovely and beautifully furnished and well maintained, with pastoral views on one side and water views on the other. Armanda is a wonderful and gracious host and welcomes you in to her home. Each morning a homemade delicious breakfast delivered. It was a true pleasure to stay there, and the location was great. We look forward to coming back.

A beautiful house with amazing host

This house is beautifully renovated with a mix of modern amenities, historical features, and a lovely outdoor space/gardens behind. The house is located close to town, beach, and other attractions - only a short drive away. Even better, is the hostess whose gracious hospitality and love of the place and Azorean culture add to a wonderful experience and good memories. Highly recommended. If there were more than 5 stars, I’d rate this gem higher.
