The house was absolutely lovely - large rooms, super clean, two lovely large bathrooms beautifully supplied with everything you could want (specially the kitchen) and the most wonderful host (Maria) who is there to help you whenever you need it. The Azoreans are lovely people and Maria is no exception - she went above and beyond to make us feel at home (delicious soup on the hob on arrival, a nicely stocked fridge, biscuits, even Easter eggs as we arrived on Easter Sunday). If we had any issues, she would come straight away to help, even bringing us farm-fresh eggs and milk. Thank you Maria, you're the most amazing host ever! The location of the house is also great, with a perfect vantage point over the beautiful Vila Franca Islet. The house is not in the heart of the town so a car is helpful (although getting into town is perfectly walkable - we were just with two older people for whom it was a bit too far) Most people hire cars anyway in São Miguel so it's not a problem to drive.

Everything was great - the only small thing I'd mention is that for very tall people (men) the beds are slightly on the small side. This doesn't matter to the average person but it would just be worth bearing in mind if you're very tall!

It was a wonderful stay! The apartment has everything you need, Maria ist very nice, we enjoyed her chocolate cake and the food in the fridge for a perfect start in the morning!

Casa da Quinta was paradise! It had amazing ocean views and an incredible outdoor garden/patio. I've stayed on this island many times before and Casa da Quinta is by far the best accommodation my family has experienced. Maria is an amazing host who ensured everything was in place for us. We arrived to a very welcoming and clean home that was fully stocked with fresh bread, wine, eggs, home made soup and much more. Everything you need to cook up any kind of meal is available in the kitchen. Maria checked on us everyday to ensure we had everything for our comfort needs. We will book Casa da Quinta again on our next trip to Sao Miguel. Thank you Maria!

The hospitality of Maria is unmatchable. I travel quite often, stayed at many places run by private owners. Never before I have experienced a place like this, having all & much more what you would possibly need during your stay. At my arrival, Maria surprised me with a fresh delicious homemade veggie soup. There were a homemade cake, buicuits & sweets, jam & local honey, local fruits, bread, drinks, more food in the fridge & shelves to use for my breakfast/lunch/dinner. Nowhere else seen such a care for a visitor. Not to name the every thing you would imagine at a proper home. Fully-stocked & peaceful (except the neighbours further...) The place was clean & very stylish with lovely little details. A big terrace to use for myself, private from other visitors,l. A wonderful shared exotic garden with the sunbeds, hamock, only the pool missing... view of the ocean & the litlle island. The supermarket 15 min by walk. I found a beautiful beach 25 min by walk. The property must be located somewhere in the middle of the town I guess, but not a very central place of Sao Miquel. To go around/ to any places, make sure to have a car. If you like this place, don't second guess, you will love staying there!

A bit far from other places, not, much to do in the area around, but if you have a car no problem. Neighbours close to Maria's house shouting daily... A pool would be a cherry on the cake.

Maria was the most welcoming host ever! She made soup and cake for us when we arrived. There was also fresh fruit and other food waiting. We had a whole little house for us alone. Including kitchen, bbq, garden, washing machine… we could take towels to use on our daytrips. On our last day in the afternoon, as we allready checked out, Maria let us use her own bathroom as we returned from the beach and prepared for the airport. She made our stay just perfect!

It is wonderful place with AMAZING view. House is well equipped, you can feel like in your own house. Maria is amazing person. She bought some food for us for breakfast, prepared tasty soup on arriving and was very helpful during all stay. Location allows to get anywhere in short time. I reccomend this house with all my heart.

We arrived and it immediately felt like home. Maria was one of the most wonderful hosts we ever had. She paid attention to every detail. The apartment was modern and well equipped, extremely clean and good WiFi. She made us soup and a cake and left so many things for us in the fridge like wine, juice, cheese, eggs and even more. There was nothing more we could have asked for. Make sure you definitely stay here and enjoy this little gem.

The only bad thing was.... that we had to leave after 3 nights :-(((

Everything was more than perfect and full of abundance wherever we looked! The accommodation was close to everything and still very quiet&safe with a beautiful garden and view towards the ocean, everything was spacious, extremely clean and prepared in a very nice style. We got fresh fruits from the garden and self made cake and soup and absolutely every detailed was extremely well organized and everyone was so friendly and helpful! All our expectations were exceeded to the highest. We can strongly recommend this location to everyone.
