Beautiful, serene property, nicely landscaped and near the sea. Friendly and helpful owners; host drove to find me when I arrived, as I got lost, even on a small island, ha ha! Very large kitchen with many choices for breakfast and homemade jams, yogurt, etc.

Very friendly and helpful hosts. Rich breakfast. Good location to explore the island. Modern bungalow with amazing view to Pico.

Wonderful room. Incredibly kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable hosts. We’d be thrilled to return one day! Highly recommend.

everything was just perfect. the place is even nicer than the pictures in the website.

Everything. Amaro and staff are fantastic hosts. The villas are super modern. Breakfast is really, really good. The view on Pico Island is also amazing. Sad the weather wasn’t good enough for the pool which looks good as well. Will definitely come again!

Beautiful location with lovely rooms. Great breakfast with lots of local products. Miguel and his mom made us feel very welcome and provided a lot of useful recommendations to us.

Everything was just amazing.

Very nice hosts and a fabulous place to stay!

Beautiful Place and very good Staff

EVERYTHING

This is hands down one of the best small hotels I have ever stayed at — and I travel a lot. Amaro and Julia have created a slice of heaven: spotlessly clean well-decorated rooms amidst a gorgeous garden, and a breakfast that is generous, varied and filled with fruits, eggs from their garden and homemade bread. We must return!

It was perfect.

V relaxing place. Beautiful location. Lovely owners.

Nothing negative I can think of.

Beautiful accommodations, gardens and pool.

In the breakfast room you could always find some coffee , fresh fruit snd vegetables from their own garden.

We had a great time at Villas Casteletes. Very thoughtful hosts who were able to suggest everything from lovely restaurants to awesome day activities. Definitely recommend staying at this place!

It was excellent. The location, rooms and food.

TV signal was a little bad but that didn't really matter as it was stunning.

Fantastic property run by a wonderful family (also highly recommend boat tours run by the son, Miguel, a marine biologist who spotted a number of sea creatures from turtles to dolphins to a species whale!). The property has a beautiful location right on the water with easy access to swimming (in the ocean and a pool) and the town of Urzelina. Breakfast was fantastic and there are free homemade cakes and fruit plus an espresso machine available all day. Service was above and beyond, even helping us find a rental car when none were available on the island. Room was spacious with a king bed and AC. Loved our stay and hope to be back!

Staff is amazing. Everytime available to help and give very good tips around S. Jorge Island. The place is so peaceful, relaxing, very well cared and with an amazing view to Pico, right in front of sea. The room is perfect, bed king sized with a big bathroom. For now the best accomodation in Azores.

It is a very lovely, cosy place with ocean and pico view. The breakfast was delicious with fresh fruits, ham, cheese, home made cake, bread and lots more. A nice little pool was highlight and Mr. Amaro is a very kind host. Thank you very much. We enjoyed our stay very much.

We originally had planned to stay one night at Villas Casteletes, but as soon as we saw how beautiful and perfectly thought out (and maintained) it was we stayed for three nights (our whole stay on Sao Jorge). The rooms are very comfortable, the breakfast is great, and if you don't feel like going out there is a well equipped kitchen open to use and even a small private patio with a view directly to Pico. When we come back to Sao Jorge we will return without hesitation to Villas Casteletes to visit Julia and Amaro. The photos look nice on booking, but don't do justice to the real beauty of the place.

Nothing!

The location and accommodation is an oasis of calm with a direct view on mount Pico, free coffee, tee and cake and upmarket design. The rooms are lofty and modern, the small kitchen area handy, the breakfast varied and very tasty. The hosts are helpful and the husband speaks very good English (which, you will notice is rare, if you travel around the archipelago or on the island). All in all a beautiful place.

Design trumped function in a couple of areas and a basic hospitality logic failed at the start: 1) the lighting in the room: stylish but not very functional as it is too dark to read comfortably. But it is cozy... 2) the shower: flooding the floor seems inevitable. And the bathroom window does not open (or requires brutality, which I didn't apply), so airing or getting the humitidy out is a challenge - which can lead to smells after a while. 3) The check-in was a relatively unhospitable experience: I called the husband as my flight was delayed and all was good. I then arrived at the property and the experience changed. I was greated in a shouting rude tone in Portugese and treated as if I had just tresspassed. Once I cleared that we needed to communicate in English, the hostess still didn't click that I might be the one, single, female, foreign guest that had booked a room and continued on remarks about making a new booking (seriously, only two bungalows were occupied as I was there, including mine...so logic and deduction would be a good thing here!). Once that got cleared, the quite universal hickups of the Azores: not being able to remember your last name for longer than 5 sec. even with a formal ID (and no, it isn't a pronounciation problem it's a two word last name problem aka. basic hospitality respect). But that one I had almost everyhwere as the hospitality industry is very immature on the archipelago. Get ready for that. After that, things became "normal".

Great environment, good breakfast and fantastic owners.

Great Hosts. Amaro welcomed us in Late check in, left the common space open for us with coffee, cakes, drinks. Superb breakfast. Eggs from their own ckickens, natural juice with a mix of oranges, papaya and goyaba from their own farm, great pies, cakes made by the host Julia. Overwelming front view to the ocean, with a great outside view spot with wooden chair and tables, great back view to the mountain, reminding us brasil, but better...

The owners are extremely nice people always trying to make your stay be as amazing as possible. The property is beautiful (loved the pond with koi fish), the bed super comfortable and the breakfast very tasty! Will stay there again when I come back to São Jorge.

The internet did not work properly at times but it was not problematic.
