    The location was great! Just a 2 minute walk to the beach and the little village itself was absolutely adorable. The house had everything you need (we stayed for a week) and has a lot of space. Key collection was very easy and the hosts gave us great tips for sightseeing. Definitely recommend! :)

    We had the most incredible stay, the house is really well equipped, we had everything we needed and way more. The view alone is amazing and then you have this wonderful terrace to enjoy it. Host was super engaging and responsive, we felt really well cared for. Porto Formoso is a quiet village, perfect for a secluded stay but perfectly situated to visit all corners of the island at the same time. We could have stayed forever!

    This apartment is just perfect: clean, spacious and comfortable for a family of 4, well equipped, in a great position (close to everything but in a quiet location), with good and fast wifi, and the view is just amazing - it was hard to leave. Also, the host is really kind and helpful!
