L emplacement de la villa face a la mer et dans un environnement très calme. La décoration intérieure de la maison

Prachtig uitzicht over de oceaan. Mooi terras, ruime woning met twee slaapkamers, twee badkamers (waarvan 1 op de begane grond) en goed uitgeruste keuken. Je parkeert je auto op het dek.

De weg er naartoe is steil en smal! De accommodatie is erg afgelegen dus je hebt sowieso een auto nodig en het kost je 20 minuten om ergens te komen. Er is geen vaatwasser of wasmachine. Ook worden er maar 2 handdoeken per persoon verschaft (wij zaten er een week).

L'isolement, l'accès au lagon en 3 min à pieds, la grande terrasse, le confort des lits

L'absence de lave linge

Wild, unspoiled, and spectacularly scenic, it offers a truly immersive natural experience. The sunrises (seen directly from the bed) and sunsets are breathtaking, and the constant sound of the ocean creates a wonderful atmosphere. Of course, as previous guests have mentioned, getting there is quite challenging. The nearest shop or restaurant is about a 20-minute drive away along a steep, narrow, and winding road, so it's worth planning your stay carefully to avoid unnecessary trips. The area is not touristy in the conventional sense – you won't find the kind of attractions typically offered in destinations geared toward mass tourism. Nearby, I highly recommend visiting Calhau de São Jorge: have a meal at the local restaurant, walk down to the ocean, and explore the ruins. In São Jorge itself, there is a café perched on the cliff with a magnificent viewpoint. The Levada do Rei trail also starts not far away (about a 15-minute drive from the house). The house itself has everything you could possibly need. The bedrooms are spacious, and the kitchen is exceptionally well equipped. There is a beautiful barbecue area, a large covered outdoor dining table, sun loungers, a lovely small garden around the house, and a more natural, wild garden area stretching down toward the sea. The garage built on the roof is an interesting architectural feature as well. One day, we simply stayed at the house without going anywhere, just to enjoy the views, the peace and quiet, and the charm of this wild, sparsely populated place.

Almost nothing to complain - only bed for me seemed uncomfortable (for me too hard mattress and pillows). Everything that makes this location special – its natural setting, lack of tourist infrastructure, remoteness from entertainment, and the need for confidence behind the wheel – could be seen as a disadvantage if you're looking for the typical attractions of a mass-tourism destination. But if that's what you're after, then this simply isn't the place for you.
