My husband and I celebrated our 45th anniversary at this beautiful VRBO. We were greeted by Joao who gave us great information and left a very special welcome basket. After a busy day seeing the beautiful sights it was wonderful to relax at the Vrbo. The ocean breeze, sound of the waves and picturesque view were mesmerizing . We would definitely stay at Casa Beira Mar again.

We had such a lovely stay! First of all, the location of the home is absolutely stunning - right on the water looking out at dramatic cliffs and crashing waves. The property is really amazing, with a big grassy backyard complete with hammock, swing, and great BBQ/eating area - and then of course the front yard overlooking the ocean with another eating area and two nice chairs. The only drawback to the front was that it happened to be pretty windy during our stay, but since the house has massive glass front windows, you can enjoy the view from inside too. The hosts were also so thoughtful - we were traveling with my baby and they worked with us on a flexible check in time, and provided all the baby necessities we needed - including things like baby shampoo we wouldn’t have even thought of! The home was spotlessly clean as well. The town of Mosteiros is super charming, has a very “local” feeling. One tip is to buy groceries in Ponta Delgada before arriving as the grocery store in town is quite small! Restaurants also book up so good to make reservations. But we loved the beaches and natural swimming pools. Thanks again for a wonderful time!

This place is absolutely incredible! An awesome piece of property in an awesome location! We stayed here for week and absolutely loved it. From the ideal picture perfect location (watching the ocean on the shoreline from our living room / front yard everyday) in a very quiet neighborhood to watching the sunsets only steps from our holiday home everything was perfect! Staying on the west side of the island is very quiet, we would often drive for 5-10 minutes before even seeing another car! Later in the afternoon, others would begin appearing from other parts of the island to watch the sunset and then would make their way home leaving our neighborhood quite again. :-) Food stores and restaurants are nearby (only a 5-15 min walk depending on which one). The home offers a very large private back lawn among trees with lounges and a hammock. There is a nice outdoor table under cover and fire stove with plenty of wood. We cooked on it twice during our visit! It's a little bit of a drive to get to Riberia Grande (~1 hour) or Ponta Delgata (~50 mins) or Furnas (~80 mins) but only ~20 mins to Sete Cidades! The Thermal springs and spa of Termas da Ferraria is also only 20 min drive. The Thermal Pool is a must visit! Ocean heated by volcano! These drive times are all within reason and you really feel like your back home to unplug in this beautiful property at the end of the day. Closer by, there is a black sand beach and pools with food / beverages within a 7-min walk from the unit

I am so glad that we chose to stay in this part of the island and in this exquisite house in particular. Earlier reviews are correct: The pictures of this house are beautiful but cannot fully capture the majesty and comfort of the views and the rooms inside. The neighborhood is quaint and quiet. We enjoyed strolling the neighborhood, swimming in natural pools among the rocks, cooking at home in the nice kitchen, reading in the breeze on the hammock, and watching the sunrise with coffee and sunset with wine from the chairs in the front yard. We took day trips to other parts of the island via our rental car. We really enjoyed these car trips as they allowed us to really see and absorb the island’s different experiences and communities. The kitchen has everything you need (even a blender). The owner provided a generous selection of local treats and was available for anything we needed. I strongly suggest visiting either the King of Cheese or the Prince of Cheese store in Ponta Delgado and pick up some local delicacies there before you head up to the house. We hope to come back and visit again. This is heaven on Earth.

This house has the most phenomenal ocean views and is beautiful and clean. The hosts are super responsive and helpful and made the whole stay easy and smooth. A perfect spot in a peaceful town perched on the ocean.

We loves our stay here!: we ended our 2 week vacation here and it was just perfect! Amazing view! And very spacious and comfortable! And Selma and Paula were great, responsive hosts! The house had everything you could want. And there were enough restaurants in town that we had plenty of dinner options we could walk to. Just a heads up ..if you are coming late in the season, check the restaurant hours in person as the hours become limited in mid-October.

We had a great time, the house is beautiful and the location is amazing. We appreciated how the host (Selma) made a difference in our vacation!
