Vacation rentals in Arrifes

I've stayed in hundreds of airbnbs and this was definitely one of the best. Even though it was just two of us, there was plenty of room for much larger groups. The apartment is centrally located and less than a 10 minute walk to the town and the beach. We had no issues finding parking in front of the apartment. The wifi worked great (~136Mbps) for two digital nomads that needed to have reliable internet. Guido was very accommodating and helpful. The kitchen was well stocked. I will definitely stay here again next time I'm in Ponta Delgada

The house is really amazing: , spacious, very quiet, clean, spacious bedroom, cosy fireplace, very private garden... Peter is a friendly and welcoming host, reacting directly at any request. A place to revisit!

The communication was super easy and the Apartment was really nice.

A charming and quiet location with a very nice view from the terrace behind the house. The rooms are furnished and decorated in a personal and comfortable way, the kitchen had all we needed. We found the mattress too soft and the bed could have been a few centimeters wider, but this may be a matter of personal preferences. All in all we had a very enjoyable time here.

Had a great stay! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. Check-in was smooth, and the host was super responsive and helpful. Loved the quiet neighborhood and easy access to local spots. Would definitely book again!

Andre has a beautiful home and the location is amazing at the edge of the lake in Sete Cidades! The views from the livingroom, dining room and front porch were amazing of the lake and surrounding mountains! There are many hiking paths to walk to and/ or bike to and/or drive your car to. We just loved all the wood tables, countertop and carvings. Beautiful! The home was well appointed, comfortable and perfect on the lake! There is a very delicious bread kitchen to get fresh out of the oven bread. We were provided with an amazing welcoming basket of goodies that included yogurts, granola, milk, butter, local rosemary honey, local sweet rolls, local pineapple, apples, oranges, local cheese and a bottle of wine!!!! And to top it all off there are bikes and kayaks to use! Definitely recommend staying at Andre’s home!

We have so much to say about this place! Fernando and Sophia were AMAZING hosts. We were welcomed with local snacks, along with recommendations on where to go throughout the island. Fernando gave us a lovely tour of the airbnb in case we had any questions. The airbnb itself is lovely and very well designed. I was able to cook in the kitchen which had everything I needed to cook meals. The sunrise view was beautiful during our stay; we were able to watch sunrise with a warm coffee & tea (also provided by the hosts) from the terrace area of the airbnb. Parking was very convenient and easily accessible. The airbnb itself is only approximately 10 minutes from the airport which makes it even more appealing. I would recommend this airbnb to anyone planning on staying in Sao Miguel island!! Thank you Fernando & Sophia for the warm welcome to Sao Miguel.

Lovely place. Photos accurate. Everything you need. Good AC. Quiet. Amazing view. Good restaurant suggestions. There is a ladder to the second floor and the patio is on the second floor—neither of these was a problem, but I guess I overlooked that in the listing. Wasn’t an issue, but gotta be careful taking coffee up the ladder :)
