The house is lovely, well appointed and spacious. Walking path was accessible from ocean side and ocean swimming area very close. James was super accommodating and informative. Weather was not swimming weather but sitting poolside with a book and a glass of wine soaking in the evening rays and listening to the ocean waves crashing was most enjoyable.

Looking for places to stay on Pico Island, I thought, like someone else wrote in their review, this was too good to be true. But it is actually very much like in the pictures on the profile, and then some! Apart from the beauty of it, you can tell how thoughtfully this accomodation has been planned. Starting from the detailed and informative description on the profile and in the house book, the navigation instructions, the easy check in (key box) and - not to forget - the kind and helpful contact to the owners and their local family/staff that keep the property in shape. The house itself is situated in Silveira, about a 5 minute drive (yes, you absolutely need a car!) from Lajes, the local ex whalers village. You're right on the edge, directly next to the sea, maybe 100 meters away from an easily accessible bathing site (recommended at high tide). You can hear the sea and the Cory's Shearwater (owa ow ow). There is a hotel and restaurant in walking distance that we didn't visit. The layout of the house and pool area is extremely spacious. 2 rooms with A/C in an almost hotel-like configuration with personal bathrooms and 1 room for 2 people with an adjacent bathroom. A huge covered balcony with sea view and lounge furniture. The living room with 2 nice sofas and a big TV and internet router. A great pool deep enough to dive in with a relax and barbecue area. A kitchen with all the good stuff and a washer/dryer. More than enough (pool) towels! Hope to come back!!

From the moment we arrived, we had a great time. The house was very well stocked and in a great location. Every morning I would take a 5 mile run on the trail around the corner from the house. It was close to a natural swimming pool which was perfect for the family. We also enjoyed using the pool and grill setup at the house. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

The house is large and well-equipped for 6 guests. Bedrooms may be on the small side, but the communal areas more than made up for that. The greatest feature of Casa do Ananas is the covered porch facing the ocean. We spent hours there, listening to the crashing surf and watching bats and birds in flight. The eerie sounds made by the Cory's Shearwaters at night are "Blair Witch Project" weird, but we grew to love them. Likewise the swooshing of the Azores noctules right over our heads into and out of their homes in the rock walls of the house. The pool area is huge, and the pool itself - while not heated - was refreshing on hot days. The house's location can't be beat: Minutes from Lajes (fantastic bakery, lots of whale-watching tour operators), a half-hour from the start of the trail up Pico mountain, a pleasant drive to the vineyards westwards in Sao Mateus, Criaco Velha and Madalena as well as the good restaurant way east at Ponta da Ilha. Overall the house is at a very convenient midpoint on the island. We walked up to the Aldeia da Fonte hotel several times; dinner at its restaurant was good and the staff was helpful at other times when we had questions. There is also a yoga/massage studio right in Silveira. All in all, we had a wonderful stay and are grateful to James, Edna and Jack for letting us enjoy their beautiful house.

You don’t get a more beautiful property than this. Lovely large house, beautiful gardens. The photos don’t do it justice. My only concerns were because the islands are very humid, there was a very off putting odor in the house. I’m assuming it was mildew in the air. So much moisture on these islands. It helps to open all the doors and let the fresh air blow through. This helps with the smell. However, there are no window or patio door screens, therefore lots of bugs (even lizards) come in the house when the doors are open. During our vacation we stayed in a property on another island This home had a dehumidifier which helped a lot with the mildew odor. (Note: there was no visible mildew) I would suggest to be more comfortable that the owners supply a portable dehumidifier. Possibly install window screens and ceiling fans would be a major plus. It gets very hot and humid. There is no air conditioning. When you’re from a dry climate and not used to humidity, this is very uncomfortable. Other than that, like I mentioned, a very beautiful property in a beautiful location. Enjoy!
