Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
Very calm and relaxing property ! The rooms and bathroom was very clean, confortable and beautiful. The hosts provide you with linen and towels, the outdoor kitchen is really really nice and you have a lot of spots in the garden to seat and enjoy the view on the hills and the sea :)
The breakfast was delicious with divers kind of food !
I loved the peaceful location in the middle of the hiking trail. Far away from everything, just mountains, waves and the lagoon. It feels like an authentic place, not something made for tourists. Lovely hosts and a beautiful house.
This is perhaps the coolest place I've ever stayed. The hosts pic you up in ATV and take you down a narrow path to the faja with consists of a number of guest houses, pools, grills, and a sauna. The setting is magical and isolated, a great place for some rest and adventure. We went on beautiful hikes and swam in waterfall pools. We loved every minute.
This is a hidden gem. Very peaceful and relaxing. Host was exceptional and could not do enough to make our trip memorable. Everything you could want for and more.
Sao Jorge island, Faja Santo Cristo and the Caldeira Guesthouse are musts when coming for a trip to Azores. The place is as remote as it can be, but gave us everything that we needed for a two day stay. It is a perfect place for non-surfers (as we are) but it seems to be a paradise for surfers. The staff was there for us all the time and they were also ready to prepare meals that would suit our needs most (breakfast, lunch or highly-recommended - dinner). Overall - one of the best guesthouse and places we have ever had a chance to be in.
Unique, breathtaking location. Beautiful, well equipped cottages. Super quiet in the middle of pure nature! Accessible via a 30min hike or by quad. Friendly staff led by super nice host Beto! Worth every journey!!
The stay was so magical and authentic, a true oasis in the middle of the atlantic ocean, every detail of the property is so well thought of and matches the surrounding landscape, quiet and peaceful but many activties available. Thank you to the amazing hosts, their kindness, service and super yummy food
Amazing place in a traditional settlement (fajã) very close to the ocean, the lakes and the beautiful mountains.
I had wonderful time staying at that guesthouse and feeling at home. It was very peaceful, with very tasty breakfast and dinner, good bathroom with hot shower and a comfortable bed.
The hosts David and Kristina and the volunteers were very kind and friendly, there's such a good atmosphere there. This is the way a guesthouse should be run.
If there was only one reason to visit Sao Jorge Island, it would be these guest houses.
Went in November, the place and the area was totally tranquil, quiet and beautiful. Words cannot describe the experience.
Location was unexpectedly perfect, the guesthouses are far from everything but still have all the comfort you can wish for.
Beto was a perfect host, most helpful, attentive, friendly and informative.
