Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Santo Amaro

Beautiful large lava house on a private rugged grass and fruit tree property in a quiet neighbourhood with a wonderful view but still within walking distance of the small charming town where groceries and coffee on the lookout can be found. A restaurant and "La Cabana", a dreamy chill-out bar tucked in the trees with stunning views is a 10 min walk towards town. A cul-de-sac is 5 minutes on foot the other way where at the end of the road you can sit on the lava retaining wall and listen to the pounding of the waves as the Sun dips below the horizon. Here you can contemplate the mysteries of life, if you are so inclined. The owner gave us a warm welcome and a tour of his extensive property. He was a charming and affable fellow, clearly spoken with a sense of humor, speaking and looking like the quintessential Azorean native gentleman we encountered frequently in our travels; willing to do anything to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The kitchen came with all amenities. The TV might as well have had an inch of dust on it for all the good it served, for who would watch when nature, this pristine beggars the sense of awe of beauty overwhelming the senses. The upstairs sitting area and downstairs bedroom were comfortable and came with everything. The whole house was clean as a whistle. The hot showers had good pressure and worked well. The trap door was a fun, novel way to go from the first floor to the lower floor. One could eat in the 'backyard' at a wooden table, the front yard on a round stone lava table, inside at the clear epoxied rough hewn timber table (really a nice touch) or under a tent behind the house for a larger group. A hammock in a shady corner was so inviting after a full day's activities. Little green lizards were frequent guests outside during 'happy hour' or mealtimes. Shearwaters, large nocturnal birds circled overhead each evening 'singing' their haunting calls.

Super clean house, fully equipped. Best location ever by the water!

Cozy, sparkling clean and quiet place in a rural neighborhood. Convenient self check in. All the facilities in the kitchen you juct can imagine. Hot tub outside. Terrace with a great view. Just perfect.

The view was stunning. We met the owner as we arrived a little early. We were greeted with great kindness and a a lovely basket of fruit and goodies were left for us on the table. The place was comfortable and clean. The road down was a bit steep and narrow but the reward of the property is worth the drive. The place is on the water with steps down to get to the water. We loved our stay. thank you

Everything. Stunning property on the ocean with mountains views. Host left cake, cookies, wine and milk.

Very nice house and very quiet neighborhood. Excellent for rest and relaxation.

Great view, surrounded by nature. Very peaceful.

Dee is an amazing hostess. Her property and garden is amazing. She takes extra care to ensure your stay is exactly what you need. I loved the view of the ocean and the special treats that she would offer. I feel that I have made a friend for life and cannot wait to stay there again!

Ivone was very nice, she always replied fast. The house was very clean and well located. We lived it!

Very nice and clean house. We came a bit early and the host was still cleaning the whole place. You can use everything in the house and kitchen. Also the host is very nice and brings you a breakfast basket every morning. Location is in the nature and the house has a amazing view. Its on the other side of the island so a scooter/car is nice to have. Overall a great experience and i would really recommend renting the place !!!
