Great location of this 3rd floor apartment that we used as a base to explore the central and western side of the island. Walking distance to a walkable beach, several casual restaurants, supermarket, laundromat. Apartment itself is good size, comfortable space, nice patio. Have to walk up 3 flights of stairs, no elevator, which worked well for us. Would stay here again.

Margarida House
A lovely one bedroom apartment. On the top floor, so nice views of the mountains from the terrace. Very well equipped. Alvaro was always there to answer any queries. We were very comfortable on our 11 night stay. Very central location in Ribeira Grande, so easy to walk to the beach, restaurants and supermarket. We LOVED Sao Miguel, and will be back!
