This place was amazing. They do a chef-run dinner that is completely worth doing. We loved our time here.

Love Pico
Really enjoyed this stay outside of the city center and really thought the property was incredibly beautiful. I would recommend this to anyone who is open to have a more nature stay and privacy

Amazing Property
The property is truly magical. They have done an amazing job with the design. Truly breathtaking sitting on top of a small community and close to the downtown. I proposed to my fiancé here and we can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful Property
Beautiful property which was an old tea factory. The room we had came with a well stocked kitchen and tons of amenities (including laundry on site). Check in was easy and communication was great. Anna included lots of recommendations for food, hikes and sites to see on the island. Would return.

Alojamiento espacioso y con unas vistas inmejorables. Negativo, cocina muy pequeña, puertas y ventanas viejas, necesitan un cambio. Tambien el mobiliario esta viejo, la cama de matrimonio y armarios incluso tenian termitas.

Found no refuge here
Hotel room was damp, dark and moldy. The room requested for a couple with two children - upon arrival we were directed to a room with four twin beds (2 on one floor and the other two in a loft). Due to the climate conditions in the room, your belongings will never be fully dry and the mildewy smell sticks to your clothes and suitcase. The shower/water heater will only provide for two quick warm showers and the others will have to take cold showers. In addition, there are any number of insects in the room e.g., ants, crickets and other native species. Additionally, the WIFI was non-existent and the administrators/managers of the property were largely absent. We caught glimpses of them as they were driving off/on the property. The location is also not particularly centrally located - so be ready to drive if you intend to use this as homebase. This is as no-frills as you can get; there was nothing within walking distance to go to for breakfast. The hotel offered breakfast (for a price) which consisted of: yogurt, granola, small portion of cheese and ham with local bread, OJ and tea as well as, hot milk and cereal.

Paisible et reposant
Lieu très paisible et reposant. Personnel très accueillant, parlant français. Le petit déjeuner que nous avons pris uniquement le premier jour était un peu décevant. Le cadre est si agréable que nous nous sommes dépêchés de rentrer le soir pour pouvoir profiter du jardin et de la piscine.

Peaceful, relaxing stay!
Pico do Refugio was our favorite place we stayed on Sao Miguel island. The location is convenient although the narrow roads leading to the property are a bit challenging. It's on a section of charming farmland - the grounds are so peaceful and full of character. Our apartment was very comfortable for two people. Lovely design details throughout. We did not get the breakfast, but it's an option. If you are looking for a great alternative to the larger-scale hotel/resorts, we highly recommend staying here. Looking forward to coming back again and again!

Amazing place!
We had a great stay at this old tea factory. Mafalda was amazing—she made us restaurant and activity reservations and recommendations. Be sure to get the breakfast box of local cheese and yogurt to eat at the picnic tables by the pool. The room was clean and spacious with a full kitchen. The lobby is accessible 24 hours, but there’s not always someone at reception. However, Mafalda was available by WhatsApp and was super quick to respond. If you’re looking to get out of the city, the location is easily accessible to major roads and we loved it!

Stunning property, excellent location, unique room
The property is absolutely gorgeous. The pool is lovely. The grounds are to be explored. Service was super helpful, personal, and thoughtful. Location is fantastic - near enough to Ponta Delgada but far enough to be relaxed and remote. Yet still near several great restaurants and the beach. Would love to stay here again and explore the different unique rooms.

Einsame Lage auf dem Berg
Waren im oberen Teil des riesigen Anwesens auf dem Berg und somit fast komplett alleine. Einziger Nachteil dort ist ein weiter Weg zum Pool. Da die Kinder nicht schwimmen konnten perfekt.

Bernardo was an excellent host! Our flight was delayed and we arrived at 2 am. He greeted us with a smile and showed us our apartment. The apartment was very spacious and the environment was relaxing.

Stay here!
This place is great. The staff was amazing. The in-room breakfast you can order to have dropped off at your door in the morning was a real highlight. The hotel is centrally located on the beautiful north shore and we found it the perfect spot to launch our daily tours from. Don’t Think twice - book it!

6/10 Good

stylisch auf ersten, unsauber auf zweiten Blick
Haben dort zwei Nächte übernachtet - Badewanne sehr dreckig und vergilbt - mit haaren der Vorbewohner. Auch eingebaute Küche wirkte nicht sauber - in Summe zwar stylisch im Design, dafür aber schon in die Jahre bekommen. Von den drei Unterkünften die wir hatten - die mit schlechtester Preis-Leistung.
