Even in the rainy days you can enjoy the covered patio and the quiet of this small village. Please notice that there's no washing machine available at the house. The house is located very close to the beach, in an area where you wont find shops, just two restaurants. If you need to do some shopping you'll have to go to the nearest city (Ribeira Grande) or to the village center. Guests have access to the entire house. Available for any question before, during and after your stay. If you haven't figured out your trip, let us know, we are pleased to help. Porto Formoso is a small village on the northern side of the island, a typical fisherman’s cove. It’s known by its restaurants and because of Praia dos Moinhos, a wonderful beach, out of the mainstream route of the summer visitors.
