Great location, very quiet and natural (feels like you are in the park). To the „main town” it’s around 30 mins walk. Amazing view both on Pico and Ocean. Room was clean and spacious.

This property was absolutely spectacular! If you are questioning whether you should book this villa, do not hesitate! The villa was exceptionally clean and well-stocked. Communication with the owner was excellent. It was easy to find the home and the views both in the front and back were fantastic. One of the best experiences we've ever had. I would highly recommend this property and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if I ever returned to Pico Island.

Loved Our Stay at Loving Strangers Hostel!
We had such a great time staying at Loving Strangers Hostel! Stefan, the owner, was super friendly and made us feel right at home from the start. He gave us a tour of the hostel and even the area around it, plus he made us breakfast every morning and took care of anything we needed. It really felt like staying with a friend!
We stayed in the Musicians Room, and it was awesome. The decor was cool, the bed was super comfy, and everything was super clean. We honestly didn’t want to leave!
We’re definitely coming back next time we’re in town. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a cozy and welcoming vibe.

It is more a hotel (or guesthouse) than a hostel: I got a double room (without sharing it with another person) with an own bath, for the price of a half double room. So simply excellent for a short stay. There is also a fully equipped kitchen with some free coffee and tea.

I had not been back to Pico Island since 1998 during the year of the earthquake in the Azores. Since that time the Azores has certainly become quite different but in a positive way. This is a small quaint village that offers you all of the modern comforts to explore the beauty that is The Azores. Despite the modern amenities it still keeps it's old world charm. Lest we forget, the wine and the food. Magnificent!

Good place to stay when traveling to Pico Island - relatively close to the airport, has all the necessary facilities (taxi, banks, supermarkets, restaurants), and there are also year-round ferries to go to neighboring islands from there.

Central to everything that is required. We rented a car and drove by the whole island. (110 km.). We stopped in a few villages for a coffee, or beer, or just to drive through. Madalena is definitely our favorite.

Madalena is a nice small town suitable to serve as a "base" for exploring Pico and Faial islands. The ferry port is in the city so it is easy to commute and includes several rental cars companies as well as tour guides for climbing mount Pico.
The nearby natural pools has served us to refresh after a day long trail.
We recommend checking out the local wine museum where you can find the oldest dragon tree as well as trekking in the wine trail that starts just near Madalena.
In the town we enjoyed eating at the Mercado Bio restaurant that serves a nice variety of dishes suitable for all taste and preferences.

Small town with a few restaurants and church.
Small town with a few restaurants and church. There are some nice fish restaurants. Wine museum is worth a visit.
There are a few whale watching, snorkelling, and diving companies, also companies that can arrange land tours and trekking. It is close to the Pico mountain. The problem I had was, it was off season and the tour companies did not seem very interested to arrange activities for tourists. You really have to make an effort yourself to find and arrange any activity. My initial intention was to do some scuba diving with sharks or snorkelling with dolphins. But due to weather conditions (however I have to say that on at least 3 days I was there the weather was very calm, but perhaps there was a bit of surge) and lack of engagement of tour operators it was not possible. I only was able to go on a single whale watching trip (where we did see a couple of whales).
The best part of my holiday was when I rented a car and drove around the island myself. The island (Pico) is very lush and green, very scenic.

This must have been quite the hotel in its day but is quite dated now. Some of the staff were helpful while some were not helpful at all. We were here in the off season so maybe that had to do with it.

Casa do mar is a peaceful place with a nice sea view, where you are just minutes (by foot) away from a nature pool to bath. The rooms are very clean, you can cook in the shared kitchen and make friends with other guests. Mona who runs Casa do Mar is very friendly and helpful. If your looking for that, Casa do Mar is the perfect place to be. If you‘re looking for the luxury of a five star hotel, you better go somewhere else.
The house is very well located, right in the center of Madalena. 2 minutes walk from the Harbor.
The owner lives in the house next door and is very helpful.
In the kitchen is everything you need and we had a view of mount pico from our room.
Overall the beds are comfortable and the interior design is well picked.
The host allowed us to check in early and had prepared a welcome basket of bread, cheese, fruit and coffee for us. The apartment was clean and is located just outside of Madalena town centre - about a 15 minute walk. All kitchen appliances worked well and the washing machine was a bonus.
Villa Barca is in a great location just outside of the main area of Madalena - very close to Cella Bar and amazing views to Sao Jorge and Faial. Easily Walkable from most anywhere in Madalena.
