Quinta da Falesia - Casa Branca

Die Gastgeberin hat uns einen liebevollen Empfang mit kulinarischen Kleinigkeiten bereitet. Überall im Haus sorgten kleine Lichtquellen für ein wohliges Ankommen. Das Haus war geräumig,sauber und uns hat nichts gefehlt. Wir haben uns wohl gefühlt. Wir durften uns sogar aus dem eigenen Gemüsegarten bedienen.

Natural setting open to the elements so you get a real feel of the greenery and wildness of the island. Design and decoration were unique and charming. The owner, Diana, is very friendly, flexible, and understanding. She left a wonderful collection of welcome treats to get us started for a few days. The friendly, free-roaming dogs accompanied us on a walk to the natural pools nearby and practically guided us there. It was also so convenient having good laundry facilities at our use. Though the house is located on the opposite side of Ponta Delgada, it takes only 15-20 min to reach the city.

Some of the furniture isn’t in the newest condition but still always comfortable and tastefully designed.

La maison est grande et bien situé sur l’île.

Matelas pas confortable. Il y a des choses qui ce font vieillot faudrait les renouveler!

Lovely home to spend some relaxing vacation. It is located at really great destination for all the trips around the island and at the same time it has an amazing private spot with some amazing views. It is the best place to write a book for example :) The accomodation has capacity for a pleasant stay with the whole family, however the set up could be challenging for families with toddlers. It has some unique architecture, which is amazing and you will love it but has many stairs and places not the safest for small children. You will find there two bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen and perfect places to just rest. This place has an unique atmospehere based on its rustical character and tradition, with all the positives and negatives of little bit older house. The owner is amazing energetic lady always ready to help with anything you will need! Just next to the house, there is a possibility for walks around the coast, which is spectacular, but you won't be never alone, there will be always a company of local dogs, which is sometimes sweet, sometimes challenging, on the other hand dogs are superfriendly. This place is a paradise for anyone who just want to relax, enjoy great architecture and views of Azorean nature as well as for traveller who want to see the whole island and come back to a comfy home.

The location is fabulous with ocean and mountain views in every direction. Only a ten minute walk to the local ocean swimming pool and a short drive to the grocery store. There were three friendly dogs on the property who visited us regularly and enjoyed going with us when we walked along the shore. The house is modern and comfortable, with lots of glass. The hostess, Diana, is wonderful.

The house is on four levels so there are lots of stairs with no handrails. Not recommended for travelers with mobility issues or young children who might be prone to tumbling down stairs! (The floors are concrete so would be unforgiving if one were to take a hard fall.)

everything was really ok. beautiful view

We enjoyed our stay in this location very much. We had a great welcome with an extraordinary selection of excellent typical food and drinks from the island. The house is well located and offers extraordinary views over the coast line with marvelous sunsets. We loved the three friendly dogs living at the quinta who gave us a warm welcome every day when we returned from our trips. Thanks a lot, Diana, for your very friendly hospitality and your great support and recommendations during our stay! We had awesome three weeks!
