Das Haus liegt weit oben und man hat eine schöne Aussicht. Die steile Anfahrt ist nicht zu unterschätzen. Die Küche ist für 4-5 Personen leider nicht so gut ausgestattet, es gibt auch keine Spülmaschine. Das Haus war sehr sauber und hat eine schöne Größe.Was man noch wissen sollte, morgens wird man von den Hähnen und den Hunden geweckt und es gibt Schnaken.

Superbe maison équipée et bien située pour explorer l'est de l'île. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié le jardin avec sa vue sur les îles désertes. C'est propre, bien entretenu et le check in est très clair pour une arrivée facile. Nous nous sommes sentis comme chez nous ! Petit bémol : les lits sont très fermes.

Wunderschöner Aufenthalt
Wir waren sehr zufrieden dem Casa da Horta 😊.
Lediglich die Einstellung des Bewegungsmelders im Treppenhaus war sehr nervig, der hat bei der kleinsten Bewegung (gekipptes Fenster = Zugluft) reagiert und wie die „Vorbewohner“ schon angemerkt haben, der Toaster müsste bitte DRINGEND !! erneuert werden
