Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in São Miguel Island

Our stay at the property was amazing - the house is even more beautiful in person. It had all the necessary facilities and the host was extremely helpful, answered our questions very quickly and very flexible all throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend a stay here and look forward to coming back!

Great stay and very responsive host. Had trouble working the AC unit and he came right away to help!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Rui was responsive and helpful whenever needed. The private terrace overlooking the ocean was the true standout. Some thoughtful touches like coffee, milk, juice, and jam were also provided for our arrival. The location in São Roque is quiet but conveniently walkable to Ponta Delgada (~30 min along a beautiful coastal path). We usually found parking in the small lot at Ilhéu de S. Roque at the end of the road, though be aware it's a narrow drive where you need to drive half on the sidewalk. If that's a concern, there’s ample parking just a short walk away on Av. do Mar. We didn’t notice much noise from the nearby Cais 20 restaurant. That said, the larger bedroom faces the street and can pick up foot traffic if windows are open. The smaller room was quieter and had better ocean sounds — we actually preferred sleeping there. Beds and pillows are basic but we slept just fine. All in all, a wonderful stay with a spectacular view.

Good central location - great base to explore the island! Rita was a fantastic host with lots of great recommendations. Would highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay in downtown Ponta Delgada! The apartment was clean, comfortable, and perfectly located — everything we needed was within walking distance. What really made the experience special was the host: incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay. Communication was easy and fast, and they made sure we felt welcome from the moment we arrived. Highly recommended for anyone visiting São Miguel!

beautiful views and great home base to go and adventure the rest of the island from.

Tip top! Clear recommendation. :-) We spent 5 nights here and felt right at home. Very clean accommodation, a beautiful view from the terrace + jacuzzi overlooking the sea and super helpful and friendly hosts. The tranquility there is also indescribable. Here, however, you definitely need a rental car if you want to do other things, as you live far away from the big cities. That's exactly why it was perfect for us.

We had such a wonderful stay! The hosts were extremely proactive about helping us with any and all needs. We were traveling with a 1 year old baby and they had everything prepared for him including high chair and crib all set up. We are so glad we got to spend a wonderful week at this property. Thank you!

This is hands down the best Airbnb my boyfriend and I have ever stayed at! The apartment is extremely well kept and has everything you could possibly need. In addition, Maria and Joao Paulo were the most amazing hosts! Here are the highlights: - Looks just like the photos! Super clean - In unit washer was amazing - Insane views of the water - Extremely well located (also less than 10 min from the airport!) - Maria and Joao Paolo were extremely responsive and proactive in giving us tips for the island and the apartment - They even made us a local dessert which was so good! - Truly the best hosts we’ve ever had I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone that is looking to experience Sao Miguel!

Really beautiful place to stay. The garden feels like a fairy tale! Would definitely recommend.

Don’t hesitate to book this lovely apartment. The view is heavenly, and Miguel goes above and beyond to be an excellent host (lots of treats left for guests, excellent communication, and very flexible). The location is wonderful. Although Moinhos itself is very small, it boasts a few restaurants/cafes, a gorgeous beach, and a wonderful waterfall hike - all without getting in your car (which you can park right outside the apartment door). Nearby Ribiera grande has everything you will need (groceries, gas etc) and the northern coast is the best for scenic views, hikes, and locals who are very friendly. This is our second time staying at Miguel’s place and it just seems to keep getting better (which is weird as we thought it was perfect in 2023). Enjoy your stay! Thank you Miguel and Romina for being amazing hosts!

The place was clean and convenient. There was a leak in the toilet that was quickly resolved.

Our stay at this Airbnb was truly a piece of heaven on earth. It was peaceful, beautiful, central and had everything we could have wanted for a perfect getaway. The property was stunning, but what made it even more special was Jose’s incredible hospitality. He gave us a full tour of the premises, sharing details about the fruit trees and how to harvest fresh fruit and eggs daily. He also brought us breakfast foods and helped us with rental car issues and recommendations for local spots. Jose’s kindness and genuine warmth made our stay unforgettable. It’s rare to meet someone so genuine and warm, and we feel lucky to have crossed paths with him. We also adored the cat living on the property—so sweet, adorable, and friendly! He added extra charm to our stay. Highly recommend this Airbnb for anyone looking for a peaceful, welcoming getaway in the Azores!

Álvaro was an amazing host, the area was beautiful and he was able to provide many recommendations on stuff to do in the area. For others like us who wanted to explore the whole island it is a great central location that can get you to all sides in under an hour. Definitely will be recommending to our friends and family who will be visiting the island, thanks Álvaro!

The entire experience was wonderful. We were able to check in early, which was wonderful because our flight arrived at 6:30 AM. The space was absolutely spotless, smelled great and had everything we could possibly need. It is a beautiful space with little clutter and the patio made it even better. Nuno was VERY responsive and had already sent us information about our stay, including local recommendations. Nuno and Sandra thought of everything to make the space homey. We would give out stay 10 stars, amazing!

We really enjoyed staying at Isabel’s place. It was beautifully decorated and very spacious. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need for your stay. We enjoyed sitting outside and in the cozy living room. The location was ideal for our daily road trips on this beautiful island. Isabel was very quick to respond to any question we had. We could not have asked for a better place to stay!!

Fantastic place with lots of space. Fully stocked kitchen, convenient parking, and very clean. Claudia was very responsive and helpful with all of our needs.

We had a wonderful stay at Sara‘s apartment! The flat is very well equipped, in an ideal location and Sara did everything to make our stay perfect. Highly recommend!

mariana’s apartment is super comfortable and clean, great view and just some minutes away from a great beach, we had an amazing time there.

Absolutely perfect Airbnb in so many ways - clean, lots of amenities, great location. We had 5 days here on Sao Miguel Island and Maria's condo was perfect. She left us snacks, wine and other little treats. Maria is incredibly generous and has great attention to detail. We highly recommend staying here.

Great apartment in an excellent location. Close to beach, supermarket, bar, cafe and on the bus line. Very quiet area. Our hosts were very gracious and friendly. Their hospitality and generosity exceeded our expectations to ensure that we were comfortable and that our stay on the island was enjoyable. Would most definitely recommend this apartment

We had the most wonderful stay! Beautiful unit inside & out! Incredibly friendly host! Highly recommend :)

Such a bargain for a delightfully decorated apartment with an incredible view and a hot tub on the terrace!!! The area was peaceful and stunning and the apartment had everything you could need! Definitely recommend :)

The place is excellent! It has a super good location, everything you need to have a pleasant and super comfortable time. Sara is super friendly and helped a lot! I highly recommend it!
