"The place is beautiful, in a great location, private and secluded, with nice amenities such as hot tubs, pool, wood BBQ. It looks just like the pictures and overall, we enjoyed our stay.
But,
- very limited hot water. Takes long to warm up and then only lasts 5 minutes. Not enough for 2 showers. We could only fill the amazing bath up a few inches before it got cold, so kind of useless.
- lots of ants, and when we complained, we were told to deal with it ourselves
- there was a birds nest...

The property is situated in a beautiful location and very close to the airport. The staff was super helpful and kind. Breakfast was delicious. Room was big with great view. I would advise to bring your own toiletries. It only has shower cap and soap. I was prepared so it wasn't a big deal.

Room was spacious and had a lovely ocean view. Property was clean and fresh. Convenient location. Would recommend! Staff was helpful and responsive through email with the check in process as I had arrived early before the room was ready.

Cozy apartment under the roof with an outstanding view on the marina and Pica island, very convenient location in the heart of the city. Everything that you need (including washer) in the apartment. The host provided with helpful recommendations and ordered taxi for us from the airport. We’ll be definitely coming back.

I stayed with my wife and 2 kids here- the place was a perfect setup where we had our own cabin with 2 bedrooms.
The property is lovely- it was super quiet and we really enjoyed splashing around in the small pool there. We were very happy with our stay!

Comfortable and in a good location. Breakfast is good. Wasn’t impressed with dinners here. Go around the corner to Atlético. Hotel has a garage that was nice. Bed was really comfortable.

A perfect place for exploring Horta, near cafes, restaurants, the beach, wonderful walking trail that over looks the harbor and Pico. The staff so friendly and helpful. The apartment very comfortable and quiet.
