Words cant describe the views and scenery when you are lying on the sun terrace or from the balcony or when in the stunning infinity pool. It is utterly peaceful apart from birdsong but not isolated as Nordeste is a 10 min drive away and there is a grocery store 2 mins away. Also very quick access to the main road which links all the main tourist spots. Our personal favourite was Ribeira das Caldeiros and Sete Cidades but the view points along the north East coast are also spectacular. We feel the house is in one of the nicest locations on the island and seemed to be in sunshine more than inland spots. We really enjoyed driving through all the wee villages which are not mentioned in the tourist brouchures and loved all the flowers and the greenery along the roadsides. We had some lovely meals in the Lince hotel restaurant Clerigos and some more basic but equally enjoyable meals in Esplanade in Nordeste. The house itself was extremely clean, all mod cons with constant hot water and plenty of channels on the tv. There re fly screens on all the windows so you can keep the windows open and enjoy a breeze in the house. Access is via a dirt track (about 100m) but it is fine to drive and means you have no traffic going past the house which is a huge bonus! The owner was friendly and helpful with her communication. This was our first visit to the Azores and we have rather fallen in love with the place. My husband is a keen photographer and he has taken many beautiful pictures. We hope to return and can recommend the house without hesitation. Thank you for letting us stay.xx

Lovely Island, friendly natives, as yet unspoiled by mass tourists. Good edge of village location with easy walk to shops and bars short drive to beach. Vast and very comfortable villa. Highly recommended.

If you're looking for modern conveniences in a peaceful, quiet setting with amazing views, then look no further. Mario and Marcilia are terrific hosts and have turned an old rustic, traditional Azorean house into a modern home that beautifully incorporates the old with the new. You can see the ocean, meadows, mountains, and village of Lomba Da Fazenda while sitting in a chair on the balcony. There is easy access by car to the house and the main road that circles the island. A nearby grocery store makes it convenient to pick up items as needed. We didn't use the pool because the weather was too cool for us to swim but it's a nice pool. We felt very safe at the house and in the area. The house is clean and it was nice having a washing machine so we didn't have to bring large pieces of luggage. We spent the mornings and most of the day visiting different parts of the island and our evenings at the house. We enjoyed being able to use the grill and induction stove to cook dinners. Internet service was really good so we could check in if we felt like it. You do have to walk up stairs to get to the main living space which wasn't an issue for us but could be for others. Two or three couples could rent the house together and find space for privacy if/when needed. The house has a lovely fireplace in the living room. There are cows and horses in the meadows surrounding the house but most of the land is used for producing hay so it was quiet. If you haven't visited Sao Miguel, you will be surprised by how much there is to see even though it's a small island.

sítio bonito, não faltava nada; boa receção. A repetir.

Schöner erholsamer Familienurlaub in einem tollen Haus in wunderschöner Umgebung. Dank an Marcilia und Mario die sich stets um uns gekümmert haben und mit Rat und Tat zur Seite standen. Die Umgebung und das Haus sind wirklich Schön. Nur die Restaurants in der nähe sind so spät im Jahr nicht mehr wirklich auf Gäste eingestellt. Ansonsten gerne wieder!!!

Das Haus ist tatsächlich so wie es auf den Bildern zu sehen ist ! Die Lage ist toll - zur einen Seite Meerblick ( auch vom super sauberen Pool aus), zur anderen Allgäu .Mario und Marcilia haben sich zweimal erkundigt, ob alles in Ordnung ist - also Gastgeber, die sich um das Wohl ihrer Gäste kümmern ... Leider nur zwei Liegen - aber die Wiese am Haus bietet sich auch an, um sich auf einem Handtuch zu relaxen ...Kurz 1 wir haben es genossen !!

We stayed 2 weeks in Casa da bella vista. And there was nothing the owners could do better. We needed some new towels and they provided them within a few hours. Also great tips for the surrounding. If we go to the Azores we would rent this house again.

This property is every bit as good as the owners description. The pool and BBQ are great and the bedrooms/living-room/kitchen of a high standard. The utensils, cutlery and crockery need renewing but I was assured this was in hand. The owners have moved to Ponta Delgada but were in regular contact and incredibly helpful. Thoroughly recommended.

Von dem geräumigen Haus aus hat man einen traumhaften Bllick in die Natur und auf den Atlantik. Der nächtliche Sternenhimmel ist atemberaubend! Mário und seine Frau sind perfekte Gastgeber und kümmern sich um das Wohl der Gäste. Im Restaurante Casa De Pasto O Cardoso im Ort gibt es typisch azorianische Küche, und in der Nähe kann man wunderbar wandern.

Ein sehr gut gepflegtes und gut ausgestattetes Ferienhaus mit Meerblick und eigenem kleinem Außenpool. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Im Haus hat es uns prinzipiell an nichts gefehlt, lediglich für die (sämtlich französischen Doppelbetten) hätte man sich einzelne Decken statt der typisch südeuropäischen Bettdecke (bestehend aus einem großen Laken und Wolldecke für ein franz. Doppelbett) gewünscht.

Ein tolles Ferienhaus mit toller Atlantik-Aussicht, inklusive traumhaften Sonnenaufgängen. Ein Ort zum Entspannen und Wohlfühlen. Durch den 2016 gebauten Salzwasser Pool ist auch einer "Abkühlung" jederzeit direkt am Haus möglich. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.... Man fühlt sich willkommen.

Auf einer Trauminsel haben wir in einem Traumhaus einen wunderschönen Urlaub verbracht. Das Haus ist liebevoll eingerichtet. Der traumhafte Ausblick wird uns immer in Erinnerung bleiben. Wir können das Haus und die Insel weiterempfehlen. We have to spend 13 days in a very nice holiday home. Especially the pool was a very refreshment every day. We had a wonderful holiday season on the Island.

My wife and I stayed in Casa Bellavista for a month in February-March and had a grand time in that part of San Miguel. The house is very well named, with spectacular views of the ocean on one side, green hills on the other and pleasant cows as neighbours. One can hear the silence. The house itself is as nice as it is described: spacious, comfortable, well laid out, a wonderful kitchen with ample counter and storage space, and huge balconies. It was a bit cold when we first arrived but a couple of heaters made it comfortable. Weather kept us out of the lovely swimming pool, and daunting hills from using the bicycles but they are there to be used. The internet worked very well and the TV carried English language stations. There are pleasant and challenging walks from the house, and many others are accessible by car. Mario and Marcilia are charming hosts, kind, caring and attentive to all our many questions. San Miguel is one of the most beautiful places we have ever visited, with spectacular colours, views and vistas at every turn. We must return to Casa Bellavista at some point for later spring flowers, and will highly recommend it to our friends.
