Reviews of Casa do Pico Arde

Lovely setting with plenty of outdoor space. Well designed and very comfortable accommodation.

staff really goes the extra mile! you’re showered with heart warming care and dedication. I haven’t experie such attention and commitment prior. there’s two floors and we stayed in the top one, which was a nice plus with the view overlooking fields, sea and sunset! kitchen has a good mix of cutlery and cooking utensils for you to enjoy the meal prep. Thank you for all / both bed arrangements!

the house / renovations are dated and it shows. you may be paying for pay for the pool privilege , more than the room itself. if you value the pool, you’ll be good. little soundproofing across rooms? for 7 nights of our stay, we could hear the snoring from the other (rental) room - *every* night.

The appartments were perfectly clean 👍🏼

Warm welcome, Quiet location in green surroundings, sunset ocean view, lovely pool - perfect temperature to swim in May, the white villa merges indoor/outdoor space, close drive to sights, airport, Santa Barbara beach, kitchen well equipped

Owner was there to help with check in and everything we needed.

Main issue is that apartment is not really meant for 4 people. Sofa in the living room is not comfortable for sleeping.

Lovely apartment with balcony facing amazing views. The apartment is located on two floors and include everything you might need. A great surprise was the complementary basket with a little surprise waiting for us up on arrival.

Some of the lights did light with a very little light, when turned off. Which disturbed me during the night, due to be very sensitive to light sources during the night.

Wonderful, family-oriented accommodation located on the outskits of town in a seccluded countryside setting, but still close to the town and to the expressway connecting the east and the west coast. We stayed for three nights in the 'White Appartment' and enjoyed everything during this charming repurposed and renovated estate. The outside premises are well maintained with beautiful gardens and paths to explore, featuring a modern swimming pool. There are also plenty of parking spaces on the premises. Our appartment was spacious, clean and well kept. The welcome gift was a nice detail and we really liked it. The kitchen had all the necessary amenities and equipment, incuding a filter coffee maker. The only thing we missed was a washing machine. The bedroom featured a comfortable bed, and a small cot was added for our daughter as well. The decor and furnishing was very fitting, providing for a pleasing match of vintage and modern. The bathroom was spacious, with a really great shower. After a long day of hiking and sightseeing we were always looking forward to return to this amazing place in the evening.

Wonderful cozy place! Especially loved mornings with open windows and singing birds and breakfasts with a Mountain View and morning run to the ocean !

Nicely dedigned and decorated appartment in a beautiful old house. One could find pretty views and nice corners all around the two floors. Great facilities and very good location, however one might need a car to get around.

The air in the property was rather heavy and somewhat smelly, might be due to wintertime humidity. One thing we were lacking was washing machine.

The host was very attentive and made our stay a memorable one. The location is conveniently just outside of town and nearby the highway to get to anywhere else on the island. We would definitely stay here again.

The property was beautiful and very well maintained. Our apartment was clean, comfortable, private and quiet. Bed was comfy and shower was very nice! The host was very nice and very thoughtful leaving us yummy snacks upon arrival and during our stay.

Air conditioner unit didn’t work very well or is too small for the size of the apartment. The main area temp was ok but the bedroom could get stuffy at night.

Great location, central to many sights on the island. Hospitable touches like a welcome basket, comfortable beds, and very spacious apartment.

The towels were rough and uncomfortable

Beautifu, clean, spacious, relaxed

Location was quiet and perfect. We had everything we needed. It was clean and the owner responded super fast and was very kind. We really enjoyed our stay! Would definitely come back.

The only thing that we missed were curtains in the bedroom to make it dark during the day, so our baby could take a nap in the afternoon.

Beautiful house, spacious with gorgeous views, especially the sunset from the pool. I looked forward to seeing the same cow across the field every morning haha. Margarida and her mom were so friendly and helpful throughout the stay! (:

It was such a nice property and the host was amazing. There were so many thoughtful touches and if I needed anything, the host had it for me within minutes. I would definitely recommend this property.

I liked the self-checkin as it gave liberty to go when you want exploring the island on the way. A welcome basket was nice to recieve and helped wiht breakfast the next day. Even though it was cold and unused, having a pool is a plus and a private terrace as well. Pool towels is also a plus. The apartment had ice cubes which was great for taking drinks and snacks for the day. Also an umbrella was handy for the rain. not too far from Ponts delgada by car.

Front door is nromal size but divided into two doors. As I am a bit chubbier it was a hassle having to open both to enter. The mattress was a bit too soft for our liking and in such a big room, a bigger better would be a plus. The kitchen needs more care. The water boiler is the kind with the resistance in contact with water so it was completely calcified so we didn't use it. Coffee machine was completely dirty with coffee residuo. Investing in a nespresso or equivalent would be a better option. There was mugs with coffee stain from bad washing as well as a knife with what seemed like cheese residue. The bathroom shower was also calcified. soaking it in white vinegar would help and instead of shower door its a curtain that was yellow on bottom from water contact.

Location is perfect, apartments are clean, comfortable! The owners are extremely nice and friendly! They waited for us with a picnic basket: fruits, cake, cheese, coffee- nicest gesture ever! :)

A dolce gusto coffee machine would make it 120%! Nothing else was missing, really! :)
