Breathtaking Island
Our group of 5 adults had a wonderful week at House of Hydrangeas, a very comfortable home with a beautiful view of the ocean. It was so relaxing hearing the surf and the waterfall. The house was in the perfect central location for day trips to explore all parts of the island. Parking spaces were available right in front of the house.The house had everything you needed to cook meals and was also very near to excellent restaurants. Self check in/check out was very convenient and Jose was easy to reach. It was exciting to see the hydrangeas at the house in full bloom in late September!

Such and amazing home and the location and views were better than we could have imagined. The hosts provided everything we could have needed and the tea and treats they left for us upon arrival were a lovely surprise. Perfect location to easily get to Furnas and Ribeira Grande. Beach cafe and restaurant within walking distance served delicious food. If we ever return we would stay here again!

Sao Miguel holiday
Had a wonderful time at José's property. It was exactly as advertised. Quiet area, beautiful views, and your own personal waterfall. Beach just a few minutes walk, and centrally located to the entire island. Having a washing machine came in handy, and the outdoor shower was perfect. Parking on the steep hill with a stick shift can be a little bit exciting but outside of that everything was a breeze. Would definitely stay again.

A great stay in a perfect location...
Jose was a wonderful host who was very responsive and helpful when we had a small crisis (not with the property). The location was perfect for us -- centrally located on the island, allowing for easy day trips in any direction. Both restaurants within walking distance were very good, and the village of Moinhos itself was picturesque, and one of our favorite places of the entire trip. The property was great, having everything we needed. We would not hesitate to book here again -- one of our very best VRBO experiences.

Beautiful home and view
The property was very clean, cozy and exactly as advertised. Jose was very responsive to all emails and flexible with our checkin/checkout times. The house is walking distance to 3 restaurants. We enjoyed two meals at Joseph's beach bar/restaurant Praia Moinhos. It is literally steps from the house and located on the beach. Our weather was rough but, Jose has a fireplace and everything we needed to build a cozy fire and play cards with our grandsons. I would love to stay here again during the Summer months and enjoy all of the decks of the house and more time of the beautiful beach.

50th Anniversary in the Azores
We picked this rental from the pictures of its locale, the pictures and description of the rental itself and the previous renter reviews. We were not disappointed. The home was very clean, comfortably furnished, completely equipped and ideally located. The ocean view from the first floor and second floor terraces was breathtaking. We were about five minutes walk from a large sandy beach with terrific wave and surf activity. The soothing sound of the surf was audible all day and night. Hiking trails of varying lengths and difficulty were walking distance away and provided spectacular hillside and ocean views. Our host was most hospitable. This was our first overseas rental and our host's warm and pleasant manner, his attention to our needs and the ease of contact with him added to a wonderful vacation experience.

Our family spent 2 weeks at this lovely house. Its exactly as described on VCBO. Lots of room for 6 people, and the views.... incredible. José was easily available online for any questions. Two restaurants within a 5 minite walk. One beach food, the other fine dining. Bring your hiking shoes. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect Family Getaway
JosĂ© was so helpful and responsive to all my questions before and after making our reservation. The property was even more beautiful in person! Our family had 4 adults and 3 kids, and the space and location were perfect for us. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the beach was a short walk away. We spent a lot of time at the beach (Praia dos Moinhos). Having an outdoor shower, clothesline, and washer just inside the property was very convenient. Other visitors had left body boards that our kids (ages 6, 8, and 11) had fun using. José’s local restaurant recommendations did not disappoint. Definitely check out MarĂ© Cheia for the best seafood and hospitality. We also went to Ribeira Grande to get some food at the supermarket, check out town life on a Sunday (so many musical and dance performances, horse rides for kids), and we got the best red velvet cake for my daughter’s birthday at A Merenda. José’s property was convenient to drive from to explore other areas like Lagoa do Fogo, Furnas (Poca da Dona Beija was our favorite thermal pools), hiking in Sete Cidades, and whale watching from Ponta Delgada. JosĂ© was quick to answer any questions during our stay. We would love to return because week on Sao Miguel just flew by!

Perfect vacation location
We cannot say enough good about this house. Perfect location on the island, within range of everything but not in the crowd of the city. Walking distance to the best beach on the island (and good hiking trails). House is beautiful, was clean and well-stocked when we arrived. Plenty of space for our family, and a nice view. We will absolutely be looking to return to this property when we return to the island.

Great Location
The view from the deck was awesome. We walked down the hill to the beach every day. Some days the waves were beauties. We bought boogie boards and left them there. Try them out. The walking trails in the neighborhood are fantastic. Check out the waterfall and the cliff platform overlooking the beach. We went to the cliffs after dark and the stars are amazing. An added bonus was even though other parts of the island were gloomy and raining our side of the island was usually sunny..especially in the afternoon. It does not get dark until almost 10PM. Everyone was super nice in the neighborhood and at the beach bar the chickens will keep you entertained while you sip you your Super Boch’s. It is a quick ride to the city or Furnas. So many fun things to do on the island. I highly recommend canyoneering. We all shed a tear when we rolled down the hill on our last day. We will be back!

Wonderful and Peaceful Property
The owner was waiting for us at the property and assisted with finding stores and how to operate our rental car. The property is superb and being able to listen to the waves at night was the best sleep. While the property is across the island from the airport, it was a short drive and accessible to the whole island. We plan to book again as we did not get to do everything that we wanted to do. We will also book this place again.
