Quiet and relaxing getaway place
My wife and I stayed at Islet View for 4 days, and loved it. The house is in a quiet and peaceful location - you can hear birds and ocean breeze, and no city sounds like cars. Awesome place to relax. The house is a walking distance (15-20 minutes) to a boat that takes you to Ilheu da Vila rock lagoon, a great place to swim in warm ocean water. There is also a picnic area nearby (5-minute walk) with benches, tables, and stunning ocean view. The hosts are very kind and hospitable, ready to help with questions about the island: what to visit and at what time (it matters for hot springs in the ocean, for example). They serve a solid breakfast, important to have before going on a hike. House amenities, shared between guests, include refrigerator, kitchen with microwave oven, laundry. Bathrooms are also shared, but it was not a problem for us, since we had a different schedule from other guests. The hosts provide individual sets of towels, including special towels to take to Furnas hot springs (important detail, as water is colored there). Parking is abundant next to the house and in the nearby parking lot, which is almost always empty. Overall, we loved the stay. Had we known what this place is like before, we would have stayed there for longer. Thank you Dr. Susanna for being a great host!

Friendly comfy and clean. Fantastic hospitality.
Arrived late due to plane delay and the owner greeted us with coffe and cake. Our room was traditional and very comfy and clean. The house was lovely and in a quiet spot. There was ample guest space, a comfortable sitting room, lots of outside space to sit and read, drink etc. The town was quiet but we found that suited us and we were able to get a good meal and there were plenty of local bars for coffee, snacks or alcoholic beverages. Furnas is just 15 mins down the road and most of the East of the island is easily accessible by car. Our host and hostess could not have done more for us.

Er wordt 24 7 op je gelet. Het "management" communiceert met geschreven berichten. Al direct na aankomst krijg je het gevoel niet welkom te zijn. Het huis hangt vol met A4-tjes wat allemaal niet mag. Daarnaast is het huis zeer gehorig. Vooral de privé achterdeur slaat constant met een harde klap dicht. Expedia zou diverse fouten hebben gemaakt met de boeking en een veel te lage prijs hebben berekend. Er bleef dan ook maar 1 B van de B&B over. Breakfast kon er niet meer vanaf. We zijn dan ook van ellende eerder vertrokken. Een verademing voor B&B explateurs also dit "Management" er mee stopt. Mag nog aan toegevoegd worden dat het mannelijke deel van dit "management" gewoon zo onbeschoft is dat zijn vrouw hem moet corrigeren.

Dice un proverbio" Una rondine non fa primavera" è proprio il caso del nostro ospite. La nostra struttura da 5 anni ha un voto su Expedia molto vicino al massimo e su Booking siamo a 9,4. Questo qualifica l'unico ospite che in 5 anni ha dato voto " 1 " alla nostra struttura. Non crediamo che dobbiamo altre considerazioni. Susanna

Perfect place to stay in Vila Franca do Campo!
Perfect place to stay in Vila Franca do Campo - one of the best towns if you want to travel around Sao Miguel island. Quiet place, clean rooms and very kind hosts - they are ready to help you with everything you want. Shared bathroom is not problem. You can also use shared kitchen with fridge or microwave oven. Breakfast was delicious!

Erg leuk Bed en Breakfast in een leuk dorp
Onze vakantie was mede door het fijne verblijf bij Susanna en Paolo (en Cristina), een heel goede ervaring op de Azoren. Elke morgen stond er een uitgebreid ontbijt klaar met veel verse producten. Het huis ligt op loopafstand van het dorp, het strand en een aantal prima restaurants. Wij hebben genoten!
