Holiday rentals with lake access in São Miguel Island

The house is super located and has a beautiful view and a huge garden, almost a park. The house is very large and charming. The kitchen is very well equipped. We enjoyed our stay very much.

José was very helpful and attentive during our stay. The accommodation was modern and comfortable in a quaint village and really close to a waterfall hike. Thank you for our stay!

The house was clean & the surrounding garden was beautiful. We only stayed 2 nights, but I can see how this would be a great longer term stay considering the amenities provided and backyard space. Érico was friendly & provided helpful instructions for parking & check in.

Casa da Avo was everything we hoped for during our stay on Sao Miguel. After our daily sightseeing adventures, it was a wonderful, relaxing place to return to, convenient to markets, shops and restaurants and the Botanical Gardens. Its location made for easy driving to most of our destinations. Maria has thought of every need and the welcome bowl of fruits and flowers was much appreciated. We hope to return to Furnas and would not hesitate to stay here again.

Its hard to put into words the magic of this place. nature at its most raw and wild... stunning. the perfect peaceful bolthole. Heaven, in a word ! thanks Manuel! wonderful host!

My boyfriend and I spent a week in this cottage and it was amazing. We felt at home with the couch, spare bed, pillows and blankets. The bathroom was large, beautiful, and clean. The kitchen is not only beautiful but also functional & probably the most well-equipped Airbnb kitchens I’ve ever used. The hosts provided us with everything we needed, even firewood for the fireplace and a speaker to play music. The bed was comfortable. We had a convenient place to park our rental car. The location is great because of the peaceful stream and private drive, but close enough to town that you can get what you need. It’s near the center of the island so our planned adventures were not too far away. We admired how the hosts preserved the history of the old mill in the renovation, it’s a well-cared for place. I would recommend this to anyone.

We had a great time at this lovely house. The setting near the lake was perfect and the host couldn’t be kinder and very quick in her response. We recommend Sete Cidades and this house to everyone!

We have had a great stay here! It’s nice and cozy house and the location is an ideal starting point for day trips on São Miguel or for exploring Furnas itself!

We had a wonderful stay in this charming house. José was very present and attentive, which greatly facilitated our arrival and installation. The house is exactly as described and photographed: a real cocoon, warm and comfortable, where you can immediately feel at home. Nestled by the lake, it offers an idyllic setting with a breathtaking view – the sunrises and sunsets are simply extraordinary. It is a perfect place for lovers of authenticity and simplicity, with a peaceful and sincere atmosphere, away from the artifices. Only small downside: the road below, paved and very busy, but this does not take away from the beauty of the site, which is one of the most remarkable landscapes on the island. A big thank you again to José for hosting us!

Very beautiful house with a very large courtyard and several animals which made our two years very happy! I recommend it.

Great calm location, with walking distance to restaurants, hot springs, thermal pools and a nice botanical garden. We found a butcher and 3-4 grocery stores and enjoyed a home made barbecue at the house as well. We rented a car for the full week to have easy access to the rest of the island. It was great to have the covered outdoor part with table and grill as the volcanic inland valleys have both sunny, rainy and moist climates. Shifting fast and sometimes throughout the day. Important to understand how to regulate the air condition equipment in the rooms to maintain nice indoor climate. A place we can recommend.

Loved our stay! The park is beautiful. Very unique spot. Highly recommend.

The house in the garden is beautiful, the creek right next door. On weekends and in the evening you have the whole garden to yourself. Warm with the stove even at low temperatures. Would book again immediately.

This place is highly recommended. Very clean. The garden is super well maintained and invites you to linger after one of many hikes. Tiago is a great host. Questions will be answered promptly. The stay with Tiago was all in all very positive.
