Wonderful place and a host that's a real star.
Pros:

From the moment I received the most memorable welcome I've ever received from a host, I knew why all the rave reviews. Cosmim goes out of his way to make you feel at home. His kindness, courtesy, and respect are second to none. The most comfortable bed I think I've ever slept in, glorious views and beautiful furniture make this place a wonderful experience.
Everything I could hope for was there, and if not, Cosmim supplied it forthwith.
Absolute dream location for views.

Cons:

Work needed doing, and I'm afraid the noisy builders spoilt for me, what could have been an exceptional experience. It's just a shame it needed doing the whole time I was there.

It was the best choice to enjoy our rest at the island.
Pros:

Everything at this stay was just perfect. The host is really dedicated and helpful. The location is absolutely breathtaking. The area is peaceful and quiet, it is good to relax from the city in this environment. Morning coffee with view from Cosmins terrace is worth every penny. You can really fell like home during your stay. In the house there is well equipped kitchen, the bedrooms are comfy and bathrooms are really clean. The host is prepared for every Azores weather conditions- during the bad one you can use Netflix chill room. ♥️

Peaceful heavenly stay with an amazing view of the Atlantic
Pros:

I loved the welcoming feeling I got the minute I arrived. Cosmin was friendly and so kind! The beautiful antique furniture reminded me of home. I had the apartment with a fully stocked kitchen and washer and dryer. I cooked and even baked cookies I bought frozen at the local market. The location is walking distance to the town of Povoacao.
I slept 10 hours the first two nights here. The bed and pillows were so comfy.
I give ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ to this wonderful place and I plan to come back! I wish I’d booked my whole two weeks here.
There’s so many places to go and see on this side of the island. Cosmin made a book with all the attractions and a big map to show you where they are! He was so helpful. I had a car and I was able to park here.
The sunsets off the terrace were the best! I also did yoga on the terrace in the morning. Fabulous and relaxing!
I really felt comfortable here as a solo traveller. 💚💚

Cons:

Nothing bad to report. It was all good!

Perfekte Unterkunft, die ihresgleichen sucht.
Pros:

Diese Unterkunft war super. Sie hat unserer Erwartungen deutlich übertroffen.
Der Hausherr war extrem zuvorkommend und nett. Die Ausstattung war beispielhaft. Nette Goodies wie Käse und Butter und Milch im Kühlschrank. Eine Grundausstattung Knabberzeug und eine Flasche Guter Wein.
Wenn wie wieder mal in die Gegend kommen, dann garantiert hierher.
