We visited several islands in the Azores and Sao Jorge was our favorite. Aldeia da Encosta is a lovely property and Gisela and her husband were kind and generous hosts. As others have said, the location is on a steep hill; everything on Sao Jorge is on a steep hill; that's what makes it beautiful. The view high above the town is breathtaking. The kitchen had all we needed to prepare simple meals. Everything was clean and tidy.

The apartment is beautiful! It’s clean and located in a beautiful area. The only issue is that the sink in the bathrooms smell like sewage. It became almost unbearable after 2 days. I feel bad but it’s true and I think it would be an easy fix with the swapping out the existing pipe for a p-trap pipe.

Perfect location, close to the water and swimming spot.
Perfect for families, groups, or couples who enjoy luxury and independence while traveling. Enjoy the space and privacy of these fully-furnished, free-standing mansions – travelers can cook, lounge, and explore at their own pace. Note that in Bali, a resort will also be called a villa.
The property was great: well-equipped, comfortable and clean, with a nice view on Pico. Lucy was very helpful and made us feel welcome with a nice food basket! The apartment is located near the bigger villages on the island but keep in mind that you'll need a car to go to a restaurant.
The overall accomodations were excellent, spectacular wide view and landscape to Velas village and to Pico, very near Velas, the house was very clean, the kitchen fully equipped as well as the bathroom. The host was very friendely and always available for any kind support.
The property is beautifully appointed and centrally located in the beautiful village of Velas. Room was spacious, clean with views towards the ocean. The kitchen with conservatory was delightful, was so lovely to enjoy a cup of coffee while taking in the sun and views. Ana, the host, provided some great suggestions on what to visit during our short stay.
The breakfast was terrific! The owner, Leticia, her son, and Catherina were very accommodating and kind.
The hotel is located in a small village near Velas. You will need a car to move around the island. However, the views from the hotel are unique! Very peaceful place.
