Cottages in Caminho de Cima

A renovated old village in the middle of lush nature. A truly enchanting place. Ana is a great host, always ready to share tips and help.

Albina the host was very welcoming. Accommodation is directly on the seaside.

Amazing charming house - very clean, excellent service, we felt very welcome :-)

Superb location with a terrace overlooking the bay where we would see distant dolphins. HIghly recommend for families as the property is comfortable and has the extras you need like washing machine, larger drying rack, lots of pegs, extra quilts etc.! coffee machine. We had wetsuits so the drying room downstairs was perfect. The village itself has a lovely little harbour, superb free swimming pool (sea water) with great little burger bar, kids loved it. Within very easy reach of the main whale watching town Lajes. Walter the host was a very kind and attentive host who showed us down to the pool on arrival. Pico and this property have been wonderful !

You have a little house just for yourself in a very calm neighborhood. There is a terrace with an amazing view and in case it rains inside there is a big window where you can sit with the same beautiful view. They have everything you need to stay for a short or long time.

Breakfast with typical products from Açores and a fascinating spot with vineyards and quiet.

Our Background We come from the beautiful city of Munich and enjoy traveling the world. Given our demanding jobs, we tend to indulge in more extravagant vacations and are willing to pay above-average prices for high-quality accommodations. This does not mean we are spoiled, but cleanliness and proper maintenance are crucial for us to enjoy our limited vacation time. About the Accommodation and Host Unfortunately, this accommodation and its host do not belong to the types of places we would consider revisiting. To be honest, we fled the place after just one night. Luckily, we found refuge for the remaining three nights at the Azores Wine Company, which we highly recommend. We traveled during the peak season, specifically at the end of August. Knowing that Pico offers limited accommodations and everything gets booked months in advance, we secured our booking early. The host was well aware of this scarcity and exploited it shamelessly. Four weeks before our trip, we received a message in Portuguese (which looked like a standard confirmation at first glance) informing us the air conditioning was broken. We could cancel without penalty but would not receive any discount. Realizing we had no alternative by then, we bit the bullet. On-site Experience Upon arrival, we realized that the small windows did not allow for any airflow, forcing us to keep the doors open to maintain a temperature below 30 degrees celsius. This, unfortunately, invited all sorts of pests, including mice, into the accommodation at night. Although we had four weeks to brace ourselves for such conditions, a bigger issue arose.

Very cute, rustic house with nice outside terrace. Nice location, close to Madalena, the airport and Sao Roque do Pico. Very private and generally quiet. The house was quite clean Ana was very responsive. Always got a nice breeze when the windows were open and bedroom AC was very effective.

The house has a great view and a nice garden area. A quiet area with a view to the ocean and also towards Pico.
