"We were a group of 4 senior adults and were looking for a quiet, comfortable location to end our Portugal trip. This spot was perfect! From the host guiding us in by phone when we got turned around, to the pleasant housekeeper who met us at the property to check in to the spectacular views of the ocean and perfectly stocked home, our stay could not have been better. With 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms plus generous sized living and dining areas (including a cool outdoor kitchen), there was plenty of room for us to be very comfortable. Porto Formosa is a tiny village so if you are looking for nightlife this is not the spot for you. We cooked for ourselves here and had everything we needed with groceries just a short 15 minute car ride away. We found this to be a good central location to explore the island from as well. You can easily walk down to the public beach (coming back up is a great workout!) and there is access to public trails close by. We cannot recommend this property enough! 5 stars!"

"Our only issue was the dog barking all night nearby."

"An excellent selection for oyr stay on Sao Miguel! Historical monastery, beautifully restored and decorated. QUIET! And the breakfast each day was amazing. Our hosts, Sao Zigna and Rodrigo were most accomodating, making sure our atay was a memorable one! Muito obrigado!"

"Our group of 5 adults had a wonderful week at House of Hydrangeas, a very comfortable home with a beautiful view of the ocean. It was so relaxing hearing the surf and the waterfall. The house was in the perfect central location for day trips to explore all parts of the island. Parking spaces were available right in front of the house.The house had everything you needed to cook meals and was also very near to excellent restaurants. Self check in/check out was very convenient and Jose was easy to reach. It was exciting to see the hydrangeas at the house in full bloom in late September!"
