Perfect Ending

We were on the Azores for a week shooting a travel show for American PBS called Outside Beyond the Lens. We picked this property as our last place to stay since it was in a part of Terceira we hadn't seen yet, and we wanted to film some of the gorgeous agricultural settings of the island. On our last night, we set up cameras and drones and shot everything we needed from the driveway under a top-ten sunset. The home is warm and inviting, and I just loved the feel of the place. We can't recommend this home enough! THANK YOU!!

Die äußerst charmanteUnterkunft ist sehr empfehlenswert. Wir haben es geliebt, auf der Bank vor dem Haus zu frühstücken oder Abend zu essen, die Lage ist ausgezeichnet, um die Insel zu erkunden. Das Haus liegt zwar an einer Straße, aber es ist so wenig Verkehr, dass einen das nicht stört. Die Kommunikation mit Veronica war ausgezeichnet Der nächste Supermarkt ist nicht weit weg, man sollte aber schon ein Auto haben. Wir waren zu viert in dem Haus. Zu bemängeln gab es fast nichts. Einige Gäste haben wohl das vorhandene Topf- und Pfannenset sehr verkratzt, da wäre ein Kochlöffel aus Holz oder ein neues angebracht. Es könnte noch ein paar bequeme Stühle oder Liegen geben, um am Nachmittag ein wenig zu relaxen und den Garten zu genießen. Aber das sind Kleinigkeiten. Alles in allem hat es uns super gefallen und das Haus ist auf jeden Fall sehr empfehlenswert. Vielen Dank, liebe Veronika, dass wir in einem schönen Haus wohnen durften

Perfect location near the north coast, especially Biscoitos. Clean rooms, friendly host, and plenty of space for our family. We arrived late night and check-in was no problem.

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche in der Casa das Vaquinhas. Das Haus ist grosszügig und gut ausgestattet. Der Aussenraum ist super zum essen, grillieren, und spielen auf der grossen Wiese. Die Nähe zum Dorf Biscoitos is optimal. Sehr empfehlenswert!
