A perfect home for those wanting a private and quiet retreat, within easy reach of beaches, cities, and amenities.
This is a wonderfully secluded and secure home that hides a beautiful garden and ocean view behind tall stone walls. It was a short 15 drive from Ponta Delgada and only 10 to Rib Grande. Close to grocery stores, natural pools, beaches and spas, its location makes it a winner. The house is well laid out and has all the amenities needed. The hosts, Ricardo and Ana, were lovely and so responsive and helpful when we experienced some travel hiccups. We hope to return soon.
You likely would need a car to stay as Uber or Bolt was hard to secure. The tiny roads leading to the property can be disconcerting if unfamiliar with driving in the Azores, however, this contributed to the private and quiet nature of the property, as well as its charm!

An enjoyable and comfortable stay, worth recommending
Ricardo and Ana, the hosts, were kind and helpful - they provided plenty of useful tips on places to visit and where to eat, and were always easy to reach if needed.
The house was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, with everything we needed. We especially liked the terrace with its view of the ocean.
The area was quiet, yet still close to the beach and shops, which made it a convenient base.

A lovely place to stay with a very friendly host.
Descanso do Guerreiro was a lovely and quiet rustic property that we soon felt at home in. It was very well located for the sights of San Miguel, although you do need a hire car. Although we stayed in early November, it was lovely to have the terrace and garden. The host was incredibly helpful and friendly, and the provisions pack that was left was a lifesaver given our late arrival.
Being a stone house and early November, the property could a be a little chill, but with the air conditioning units set to heat, it soon warmed up sufficiently to be comfortable.
Ein sehr gut ausgestattetes Ferienhaus und eine sehr freundliche Gastgeberin die gerne viele interessante und hilfreiche Informationen gibt. Ein Besuch auf der Ananasplantage der Familie ist sehr zu empfehlen. Wir haben uns in der Ferienwohnung sehr wohl gefühlt.

Het uitzicht, de ruimte in het huis, alle voorzieningen om zelf ook te koken. Er was een goede oven aanwezig.
De bedden vonden wij wat hard en die gaven weinig mee, dat zou het verblijf nog comfortabeler maken

Die Unterkunft war auf den ersten Blick schön mit vollwertiger Küche, 2 Schlafzimmern und eigenem Grundstück, ganz netter Ausblick aufs Meer, leider war das jedoch nur der erste Eindruck.
Die "rustikalen Möbel" im Wohnzimmer (man könnte auch einfach sagen alte verlebte Möbel) waren mit Holzwürmern befallen, die alten Sitzmöbel einfach nur unbequem und plattgesessen und eine Decke drüber gelegt, damit man den abgelebten Stoff nicht sah, es staubte ohne Ende, der Klodeckel war nicht richtig fest, so dass er immer wieder wegrutschte, diverse Schranktüren / Schubladen klemmten oder gingen dauernd wieder auf, wackelnde Regale, Stromanschlüsse Mangelware, Wetterschutzleiste an der Haustüre locker, es roch muffig in dem Haus, Tauben die einem den Eingang vollkacken, ... und dann natürlich noch der Lärm tagsüber.
Wir haben das Reiseziel und diese Unterkunft explizit ausgewählt, da wir einfach nur mal 3 Wochen Ruhe haben wollten von der Baustelle zu Hause nebenan und was haben wir bekommen? 3 Wochen Dauerlärm durch die Kettensäge und Freischneider des Nachbars tagsüber zwischen 7 und 17-18 Uhr. Wir hatten eigentlich vor, schön draußen zu sitzen und einen entspannten Urlaub dort zu verbringen mit viel Lesen, jedoch war das einfach nicht möglich, da man sich bei dem Lärm nicht auf ein Buch konzentrieren oder sinnvoll unterhalten konnte.
Wir haben uns an den Vermieter gewendet, der unsere Nachricht angeblich falsch verstanden hat, dass nur an einem Tag da Lärm war statt 3 Wochen lang. Uns kam es eher vor, dass den Vermieter das absolut nicht interessierte. Dazu dass bei der Übergabe des Schlüssels angeblich kein Lärm vom Nachbarn vorhanden war, was nicht stimmt. Der Vermieter war nicht dazu bereit, einen Rabatt für diese doch sehr starke Einschränkung zu geben. Das spricht für sich. Somit MAXIMAL eine 5 für diesen Urlaub in der Unterkunft, da sie nicht dem entsprach, was versprochen wurde, sondern einfach nur nervige 3 Wochen waren, in denen wir geschaut haben, dass wir tagsüber möglichst wenig in der Unterkunft waren, statt dort entspannt mit einem Buch auf der Terrasse zu sitzen. Definitiv nie wieder diese Unterkunft und diesen Vermieter.
