Luxury villa Large with private pool, minutes from the beach,

Beautiful view and close to everything. Our host was avaliable and very helpful. The sleeping arrangments met all our needs as the villa had 5 bedrooms. Sao Miguel was the most amazing place to visit and would recommend this location to any large group vacation. See you again

The house was perfect for our large group. The kitchen was very well equipped for cooking. We loved the pool area and it was nice having all the lounge chairs to layout. I would like to mention that there is no dryer in the home and you have to hang your clothes out to dry. It was a bit of an inconvenience given the length of our stay but we made it work. Also, there is only a wall AC unit in the downstairs living room. It cooled the majority of the 1st floor but the upstairs bedrooms were very warm at night. I would recommend they put instructions in English on how to run the dishwasher, washer, microwave and oven as that was a struggle and probably very inefficient when it come to one’s time and the electric bill. On the last full day of our stay there were 3 strangers that showed up and didn’t come to the door to introduce themselves. It was very concerning because they had a key fab to open the gate but didn’t let us know why they were there. We would definitely consider going back as overall the property was amazing but knowing some of the above details would have been nice to know again given our length of stay and that we were there for a destination wedding. Karla the housekeeper was so accommodating and always available and certainly went above and beyond to get us what we needed. Communication with the host was a struggle as he always responded in Portuguese and we only spoke English.

Great place to stay in vila franca. So much room beautiful gardens and pool. 20 mins from anywhere. Host was extremely accommodating.

Really nice villa, close to everything

We had a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, had great parking. The communication with Roberto was great. We would recommend this home!

Unfortunately I have to say there was a little Bait and Switch going on. On arrival I met with maybe the wife of Roberto, and was informed that we had been placed in a different house than the one we rented, apparently they thought it was better suited to our party. The house we were put in was not anywhere near the image of the one we rented, to add to that there was broken glass all around, mold, broken screen doors, sliders that where almost impossible to open, windows all etched and not clean. The pool wasn't very clean. Although Roberto had said we could enter early and leave late (which I found very accommodating of him (whom we didn't meet at all) our overall expreiance was not the best.

Enjoyed out stay

Beatiful location with a nice view at the sea. It was great. We didn’t had any contact with the owner but not a big problem for us. The dishwasher doesn’t work good, it stays dirty. All other things where good.

Thank you Roberto for a wonderful stay! The house was clean, the pool was nice, and the location was ideal. Plenty of room and space for 5 adults, and the yard/garden area provided good privacy. Thanks again!

As soon as we walked out the doors into the deck we were blown away by the view of the Volcano directly off shore. There is an almost 180 degree view of the ocean and the setting is superb.
