Must-know information for guests at this property

Insect and Wildlife Information: Our apartments are located in a warm, humid climate that is teeming with wildlife. Depending on the time of year and weather conditions, guests may encounter mosquitoes, flies, lizards, bedbugs or other insects. Although we use regular pest control services, we cannot offer guarantees or refunds for the occasional animal that may enter one of our apartments. We do our best to prevent this from happening and guests can help by keeping doors closed and disposing of rubbish and storing food responsibly. Outdoor Flooring Information: Within our property, the floors of the outdoor patios and stairs are made of basalt stone, which is characteristic of São Jorge Island, so you may encounter some irregularities. We therefore recommend that you drive with caution as we do not provide compensation, guarantees or refunds in the event of an accident.

Please inform Mar D'Abstração of your expected arrival time in advance. You can use the Special Requests box when booking, or contact the property directly using the contact details in your confirmation.

This property does not accommodate bachelor(ette) or similar parties.

Quiet hours are between 23:00:00 and 07:00:00.
