Monthly Rentals in Velas

We enjoyed our stay at Tiago’s place! It was very clean. We enjoyed the outdoor patio area. Tiago was very helpful and accommodating. The location is also very nice and walkable to lots of restaurants and the waterfront!

Laura’s Cottage is a fantastic base for exploring São Jorge Island. The house is thoughtfully designed, highly functional, and exceptionally well-equipped with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. The beds and mattresses were particularly noteworthy — very comfortable and clearly chosen with care. One of the highlights was waking up in the main bedroom to a breathtaking, unobstructed view of Pico Island (weather permitting) — a truly memorable experience. Germano was an outstanding host: proactive, thoughtful, and incredibly responsive. He reached out well in advance with a wealth of useful tips about what to see and do on the island, which made a real difference in shaping our trip. Throughout our stay, he remained attentive and helpful without ever being intrusive. I honestly couldn't recommend Laura’s Cottage more — it was a perfect stay in a magical place.

This comfortable cottage is located in a beautiful and peaceful setting near the bottom of a steep & curvy road. There is a lovely side view over the church to the neighboring faja & sea from the front of the house. The area is remote, and there are no large grocery stores or restaurants nearby. We bought food in Velas and were able to cook in the well equipped kitchen and dine on the front patio. Walking in the neighborhood is fairly limited. Having a car is essential to access other parts of the island. We did not get to meet Anabela, but she was quick to respond to questions and offered an easy and flexible check in/out. However, we had trouble finding the home. It was rainy and foggy upon on our arrival which made it more difficult, but using the recommended Waze app still took us to the wrong location. Make sure you have proper coordinates before starting your journey. Highly recommended for a quiet and relaxing get away.

The apartment is spacious and modern. It accommodated the three of us comfortably. We enjoyed the balcony and the view. João was helpful and responsive. Check in and check out was a bliss.
