Our stay
Vegetarian was over grown and we did not have the ocean view like it was in the picture. We ended up popping a tire coming into property due to the road to get to property. The bathroom had a odor. All videos were in German, and would stop playing halfway through. Then DVD player stopped working. The fire pit which was to be the bbq, but there was nothing to grill on and was full with branches. No satellite and there were no trash bins outside to take out trash. The solar water heater didnât work. Property was hard to find, we had a local help find and they couldnât, had to call the caretaker to guide us in.

Kakkerlakken, waren er ziek van!
Het is huis is mooi en heel ruim maar mag beter onderhouden worden, hondenpoep bij het terras in de tuin. En tijdens ons verblijf maar liefst 7 kakkerlakken in het huis. Ik denk dat wanneer er rondom het huis beter opgeruimd wordt dit echt niet nodig is.
Eigenlijk zonde van zoân mooie lokatie. Bedden sliepen wel prima

Maison de campagne rustique dans son jus
Maison difficile à trouver et difficile d'accÚs en voiture. HÎte réservé et discret...voire un peu sauvage. Propreté basique, trÚs belle et grande piÚce de vie mais électroménager vieillissant (lave vaisselle et machine à laver hors d'usage). Environnement trÚs calme et beau jardin, dommage qu'il manque un petit peu de mobilier pour le rendre agréable. Attention la chambre du bas est trÚs humide.

Leider feucht und schmutzig
Die Unterkunft war leider stark verschmutzt. Es wirkte so, als ob weder das Bad, noch die restliche Unterkunft geputzt wurden.
Die KĂŒche war grundsĂ€tzlich sehr schön und gerĂ€umig, jedoch zeigte der KĂŒhlschrank Spuren der VorgĂ€nger.
Das Hauptproblem lag jedoch in dem unteren Geschoss.
Dieses konnte nur ĂŒber eine Fallleiter bzw. von auĂen betreten werden und man musste zwingend in dieses um das einzige Bad zu erreichen.
Die Fallleiter hatte kein GelÀnder und barg damit nicht nur in der Nacht ein durchaus hohes Verletzungsrisiko.
Der untere Schlafraum war faktisch unbewohnbar. Dieser war sehr feucht und roch verschimmelt. Die BettwÀsche in diesem Zimmer war nicht nur feucht, sondern auch verschmutzt.
Insgesamt befand sich die Unterkunft fĂŒr vier Personen daher in einem nicht zumutbaren Zustand, auch wenn der Preis zunĂ€chst sehr fair erschien.
Leider kann ich daher aus oben genannten GrĂŒnden nur einen Stern vergeben, auch wenn das Haus ein groĂes Potenzial bietet.

Abenteuerurlaub auf Faial gesucht?
Vorweg, wir waren zusammen mit Freunden zu Besuch und kennen aus vergangenen Reisen die Einfachheit der Azoren. Die Vorfreude ist schnell der RealitĂ€t gewichen. In den zwei Corona Jahren hat das FH offensichtlich erheblich gelitten, der Kellerbereich ( Bad & 2. Schlafzimmer) wurden ungenĂŒgend gelĂŒftet. Das untere Zimmer ist somit zum Schlafen glatt ungeeignet.
Also wer nur zu Zweit kommt, kann sich nach erfolgreicher Anfahrt durch die ausgetrocknete Bachquerung und einer Grundreinigung auf einen ruhigen Urlaub freuen. In der nĂ€heren Umgebung sind kleine GeschĂ€fte fĂŒr den tĂ€glichen Bedarf + BĂ€cker. Auch die Lage hat uns gut gefallen. Um dem Meer nĂ€her zu kommen ( SteilkĂŒste), muss man ca. 15 Min. laufen. -> Mit gewissen EinschrĂ€nkungen fĂŒr 2 Personen zu empfehlen. Fahrzeug mit Unterbodenversicherung ratsam.

Schönes groĂes Haus mit traumhaftem Garten und Meerblick
Das originelle Haus ist sehr groĂzĂŒgig gestaltet (vor allem das riesige Bad) und hat einen groĂen und wunderschönen Garten mit Meerblick. Es liegt sehr ruhig und man kann sich herrlich erholen. Der Vermieter (wohnt nebenan) ist nett und hilfsbereit. Man hört die Vögel zwitschern, hin und wieder eine Kuh muhen und die Kirchenglocke bimmeln. Man wohnt fast am Land und trotzdem sind die GeschĂ€fte und Restaurants in der NĂ€he.
Einige Wanderwege sind auch gleich vor der HaustĂŒr.
