Guest Reviews
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Er wordt 24 7 op je gelet. Het "management" communiceert met geschreven berichten. Al direct na aankomst krijg je het gevoel niet welkom te zijn. Het huis hangt vol met A4-tjes wat allemaal niet mag. Daarnaast is het huis zeer gehorig. Vooral de privé achterdeur slaat constant met een harde klap dicht.
Expedia zou diverse fouten hebben gemaakt met de boeking en een veel te lage prijs hebben berekend. Er bleef dan ook maar 1 B van de B&B over. Breakfast kon er niet meer vanaf. We zijn dan ook van ellende eerder vertrokken. Een verademing voor B&B explateurs also dit "Management" er mee stopt. Mag nog aan toegevoegd worden dat het mannelijke deel van dit "management" gewoon zo onbeschoft is dat zijn vrouw hem moet corrigeren.
- douglass (10/5): Loved it ! - We really loved staying in this wonderful, quiet place. Thank you so much for the amazing breakfasts in the morning ! Spacious room and bathroom , we really enjoyed our stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - La habitación era amplia y está en una zona muy tranquila y muy bien situado para explorar la isla.
- Kamil (10/5): Perfect place to stay in Vila Franca do Campo! - Perfect place to stay in Vila Franca do Campo - one of the best towns if you want to travel around Sao Miguel island. Quiet place, clean rooms and very kind hosts - they are ready to help you with everything you want. Shared bathroom is not problem. You can also use shared kitchen with fridge or microwave oven. Breakfast was delicious!
- Meital (10/5): Amazing stay - I stayed for a week and had a great stay. The location was quite and had beautiful view, the breakfast was amazing, bed was comfortable, room and bathroom were very clean and the hosts were very caring and nice. I will definitely come back in the future!
- Mykola (10/5): Quiet and relaxing getaway place - My wife and I stayed at Islet View for 4 days, and loved it. The house is in a quiet and peaceful location - you can hear birds and ocean breeze, and no city sounds like cars. Awesome place to relax.
The house is a walking distance (15-20 minutes) to a boat that takes you to Ilheu da Vila rock lagoon, a great place to swim in warm ocean water. There is also a picnic area nearby (5-minute walk) with benches, tables, and stunning ocean view.
The hosts are very kind and hospitable, ready to help with questions about the island: what to visit and at what time (it matters for hot springs in the ocean, for example). They serve a solid breakfast, important to have before going on a hike.
House amenities, shared between guests, include refrigerator, kitchen with microwave oven, laundry. Bathrooms are also shared, but it was not a problem for us, since we had a different schedule from other guests. The hosts provide individual sets of towels, including special towels to take to Furnas hot springs (important detail, as water is colored there). Parking is abundant next to the house and in the nearby parking lot, which is almost always empty.
Overall, we loved the stay. Had we known what this place is like before, we would have stayed there for longer. Thank you Dr. Susanna for being a great host!
- Annie (8/5): More than 2 stars - We really enjoyed staying at Islet View. The host are very welcoming and the Breakfast is awesome. It is very clean, and we made good use of the kitchenette and patio made available to us. Close to the grocery store and walking distance to the water .

- Vittorio (10/5): Eccellente soggiorno con colazioni spettacolari... - Siamo stati davvero benissimo. Accoglienza eccezionale, colazione a dir poco favolosa. Super cosigliato. Rapporto qualità prezzo imbattibile... Davvero bravi!!! 10 con lode
- Cosette (10/5): Propreté absolue - Très grand sens du service de la part des propriétaires .
Accueil et aides très positifs.
Petits déjeuners originaux et savoureux.
- Cesar (6/5): - The Room needed a ceiling fan, since there is no air conditioning.
- aurelien (10/5): B and B très sympathique!! - maison charmante et construite avec gout. les hotes sont adorables et feront tout pour vous satisfaire. très bien située au calme et proche du centre. je recommande sans hésiter!
- Ruggero (10/5): Sao Miguel Azzorre - Susanna e Paolo i padroni di casa sono persone squisite nei modi e nell'accoglienza dei turisti. Davvero un'ottima vacanza anche grazie a loro
- Herve (10/5): Maison calme et chic - Très bonne surprise, dans une maison très ordinaire à l'extérieur, mais très chic à l'intérieur et très bien tenu. Une grande salle de bain.
- julie (6/5): Nice staff - Nice staff but felt funny about sharing bathroom space
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Como en casa. El trato de Susana y Paolo exelente,muy amables y buena gente. Todo estaba en su sitio y muy limpio, si vuelvo a villafranca sin duda repetiria la experiencia! Un 10!
- Heather (10/5): Friendly comfy and clean. Fantastic hospitality. - Arrived late due to plane delay and the owner greeted us with coffe and cake. Our room was traditional and very comfy and clean. The house was lovely and in a quiet spot. There was ample guest space, a comfortable sitting room, lots of outside space to sit and read, drink etc.
The town was quiet but we found that suited us and we were able to get a good meal and there were plenty of local bars for coffee, snacks or alcoholic beverages. Furnas is just 15 mins down the road and most of the East of the island is easily accessible by car. Our host and hostess could not have done more for us.
- charles-antoine (10/5): - Très accueillants, très gentils, super guest house!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Erg leuk Bed en Breakfast in een leuk dorp - Onze vakantie was mede door het fijne verblijf bij Susanna en Paolo (en Cristina), een heel goede ervaring op de Azoren. Elke morgen stond er een uitgebreid ontbijt klaar met veel verse producten. Het huis ligt op loopafstand van het dorp, het strand en een aantal prima restaurants.
Wij hebben genoten!
