About this house rental
Old flag of the boats, the House of Boats is part of the property comprised in the mid-nineteenth century by José do Canto, an aristocrat São Miguel, who in 1814 married a rich heiress, Maria Guilhermina Taveira Brum da Silveira.
It began to purchase plots of land, having come to 600ha. For this whole area ordered several of the major European cities coming projects such as London and Paris, leaving us on the spot, a legacy of great architectural and botanical value.
Although reduced to 100ha, the property can be enjoyed by many points of interest.
The garden part, Mata-Jardim, represents an important scenic and botanical legacy for the region. These are all features that lend the area a cinematic environment, full of mergers between nature and human intervention, able to provide you unforgettable moments.

- Double bed
- Closet
- Towel warmer
- Hair Dryer (on request)
- Equipped kitchen
- Central heating

- Upstairs, along with the Suite, is a playroom dedicated to leisure time.
- The whole house is equipped with central heating, allowing a comfortable presence during the winter.

One of the best Vrbos we’ve ever stayed at. The location is idyllic. Access to the park, kayaks, swimming in the lake, it’s all amazing.

Historic home, you will find this home on post cards, magnets, Cups, etc. The property is stunning. The garden, the lake, the church, it was all amazing. The home is a bit dated so if you are looking for chic and modern this is not the place for you! It was however just what I thought the Azores would be like. It was a slice of heaven for us. During the day there is a lot of foot traffic but in the evening it is all yours! The garden has a nice path that leads to a pretty little waterfall. There is a beautiful peacock that roams the yard. Our host had a nice basket of fresh bread, jelly, juice, butter, cheese, milk and bolas levedos. It set the tone! I wish now I had booked this for the entire 9 days. But we stayed 4 nights on each end of the island. By far, Furnas was the best.

Lovely old lodge
Meeting Margarida at check in was wonderful, as we heard all of the history of the large property and her family home. Beautiful interior and calm view of the Lagoa das Furnas. We had a very nice time. It was great to be in a home over 200 years old. Jose and Wendy Soares, Vanc. Island, Canada
