Casa das Lapinhas - Sao Miguel, Azores

This is a lovely, old and authentically furnished, family house, with wonderful views over the sea and the countryside and a huge garden with many nooks and crannies. There is a lot of space and the owners provide everything that you might need for a comfortable stay, including a well-equipped kitchen, copious hot water, wifi and firewood. The owners met us on site to show us around and were very chatty and helpful and also provided some basic foods for our arrival, which we much appreciated. The house is in an excellent spot for touring the island; quiet but also close enough to Lagoa to collect supplies or eat out. Given that we visited in the winter, we also found out that the house is probably in one of the warmest and most sheltered areas of the island! We would thoroughly recommend the Casa.

We loved this house. Location was rural but only 10 mins to Ponta Delgada. The views across the cornfield to the ocean....amazing. The kithen was well-equipped with everything we needed and the bed was comfortable. Our host was quick to respond with any queries. If we were to return to Sao Miguel we would definitely co sider this house again.

This lovely old farmhouse is situated in a picturesque location and offers plenty of space and breathtaking views. However, the property is desperately in need of a full renovation. The mattresses are uncomfortable, the bathroom is outdated, and the kitchen equipment is worn and in some cases dirty. We still enjoyed our stay, but we opted not to cook during our time there. The key collection process was also quite an ordeal. After a tiring 22-hour journey, having to navigate through the entire town to pick up the keys, which were miles away from the property and not even on the route, was quite frustrating. Overall, we would recommend this property to anyone seeking an authentic farmhouse experience in a beautiful location. However, it's important to be aware that the property is in need of some serious TLC and that the key collection process could be improved.

a lot of privacy, beautiful view and amazing jungle garden.It’s authentic so not a lot of comfort but great to stay there?

It was a pleasure to stay there, the view was gorgeous and the jungle garden amazing. Really wanted to help?

The nostalgic and tastefully furnished property is located in a park-like garden. The special feature is an aboretum with a jungle character that was created generations ago. The terrace of the house has an unobstructed sea view. The location is ideal for exploring the area. We really enjoyed our vacation here.

The house is old but very charming. Everything worked well including wifi. The garden is incredible anc the ocenview a big extra. Recommend the house
