I loved my stay at this villa. Let’s start with the view; it is incredible! It overlooks Ilheu da Vila, with Vila Franca do Campo to the right. The pool has a beautiful blue tile with an infinity edge. Frankly, I could have just lounged around by the pool for a week and called it a successful vacation. But, do go out and see the island, as it is very beautiful.
You should know that the listing’s description for the number of bedrooms and bathrooms is incorrect. Rather than “zero” bathrooms, it has at least three full bathrooms. I believe it has four bedrooms, rather than five, but I may be misremembering that as there were only two of us (and we only needed one).
The interior of the house is well appointed, with nice décor and nice surfaces/finishes. A previous reviewer complained about a lack of pantry items (e.g., spices, paper towels, etc.), but I did not find it to be different from other villas I’ve rented in Europe. Those items are typically not provided.
Roberto was easy to work with and very accommodating. When you consider the location, view, pool and number of bedrooms and bathrooms, this villa is a great value. If I come back to Sao Miguel, I would most certainly rent this house again.
