Traditional house restored in private and quiet environment near the sea

Traditional house carefully rebuilt and decorated, fully equipped with two bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The house is located in Quinta do Rochão, Santo Amaro parish, municipality of São Roque do Pico. This ancient town became known as the main naval construction center in the Azores since the end of Sec. XIX, having been built here the best fishing boats in Portugal. The Santo Amaro neighborhood is still one of the places in the country with more tradition and connection to the sea.

Santo Amaro is only 15 minutes of San Roque, where you have all kinds of shops, museums, restaurants and many cafes, patisseries, cocktail bars, clubs and summer music festivals.

In the surrounding area of ​​the house there are natural pools, cafes, supermarket, craft school, a fishing port where you can buy fresh fish directly to the fishermen and a good restaurant - Corner Palace - where you can enjoy typical island food and the Azores.

Fijn huisje maar vochtprobleem

Het huisje is mooi gerenoveerd en ruim genoeg voor vier personen. Heerlijk rustig gelegen, wel aan de natte kant van het eiland. Wij zaten soms in de regen terwijl in Madalena de zon scheen. Hier en daar miste ik wat praktische dingen zoals een kapstok voor de jassen en als er al wat basisingrediënten in de keuken zouden zijn geweest (zoals zout, peper, olie) was dat leuk geweest. Grootste minpunten zijn de slechte kwaliteit van de matras en vooral het serieuze vochtprobleem. In het huisje rook het daardoor heel muf, en zeker in de slaapkamers beneden was het echt muf en vochtig. De eigenaar had wel een ontvochtiger gezet en dat was echt noodzakelijk, want met dat natte weer kreeg je het vocht niet weg.

Haus renoviert - an ruhiger Lage - mit herrlichem Weitblick für 4 Personen

Wir 4 Erwachsene verbrachten unsere 14 Urlaubstage wandernd auf Pico. Es regnete mehrmals täglich. Gefallen haben uns: der wunderschöne und grosszügige Holztisch in der modernen, orangefarbenen Küche, praktisch und elegant die beiden Badezimmer und attraktiv das Untergeschoss mit den 2 Schlafzimmern und das Badezimmer. Welch ein einmaliger Weitblick Richtung Meer. Uns fehlten vor allem: 1 Garderobeneinrichtung Waschständer, Waschmaschine, (Tumbler), und W LAN (Wifi) Auch in der Küche fehlen grundlegende und gängige Küchenwerkzeuge - Utensilien: div. Haken für die (feuchten) Geschirr- und Handtücher 1 Abtropfsieb 1 Wallholz 1 Kaffeefiltermaschine, (KaffeemaschineO 1 einen Thermoskrug div. Raffeln + Raspeln (-> Reibkäse ...) 1 Salattscheuder 1 Beseli mit Schüfeli Herzlichen Dank für die unkomplizierte Übernahme und Abgabe des Hauses. Auch die 1x / Woche stattfindende Reinigung mit Wechsel der Bettwäsche und Hand- / Duschtücher schätzen wir.

Well equipped and nicely renovated house

The house is spacious although it has less than 200 squaremetres. All rooms are modern and are quite luxury. Furthermore, the location is quiet with very nice views to Sao Jorge. The only downside was that there is no privacy on the terrace if the other house, which is only 5 meters away, is occupied. Another terrace on the ground floor would have been great.
