Beautiful house near the sea

The home, garden and location are all wonderful! We stopped in the Azores on our honeymoon and had such a great time here. The garden is a lovely place to relax, the ocean is just beyond the wall, and there are some great restaurants a short walk down the road.

Breathtaking

We had a wonderful time. The house is lovely and the garden is just beautiful. The ocean in the back with its tidal pools makes this place extraordinary. Rita the host is so accommodating. We arrived early and she allowed us to rest in the garden as Tania and another lady were cleaning. Thanks for a special time spent with family.

Lovely stay in Fishermans House

The house is beautiful particularly the garden which is worthy of a Chelsea flower show exhibit and overall the house etc are exactly as described. It has three bathrooms, two with showers and one with a bath with shower above. The natural pool is a very short walk as described. The supermarket is walkable (we did not rent a car) and there are two restaurants and a pizzeria nearby without having to walk very far which we did frequent and were good. A lot of care had been put into our stay - swimming towels were in a lovely condition as were the main house towels. The beds were made with our family in mind. There are fans for the sultry nights which did the trick and overall the house was very well equipped for our stay.

Character and Serenity

A storybook garden, an enchanting home, and a dream location. If you want to have a more local experience that happens to be at the ocean with tide pools behind you and a walkway along the ocean, this is a fantastic choice. An easy drive to so many wonderful locations. Cozy up at night with the extra blankets, and make sure to put your laundry out to dry first thing in the morning and bring it in before the sun sets due to humidity. The caretaker is welcoming and the host is accommodating and responds quickly to emails. If you like to surf, or want to learn, I recommend Ride the Wave Surf School.

Magical

We spent a magical 2 weeks at Casa Lisette. We loved Branquinha and spent most all our time at the house in the garden which is even more beautiful than the listing photos. The location is perfect for touring the whole island with nothing being more than an hour away and most places to visit within 20 minutes. The tidal pools are right outside the garden back gate and are a great place to spend some quiet, relaxing time. There is a restaurant also outside the back gate for a cold beer and great snacks with an ocean view. A grocery store is less than 5 minutes away. There is no air conditioning so expect the bedrooms to be warm at night in the summer. The fans help. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. Rita and Tania are very responsive and helpful when you need something. We would stay here again should we return to Sao Miguel.

Paradise with a cost

This property is quite possibly one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed. The house is rustic, but modern where it needs to be. The gardens are paradise. The swimming hole in the ocean behind the house is magical. One issue that caused a lot of stress with us was the very strict rules of people visiting. We decided to rent a house so we had flexibility with a number of friends on the island wanting to come and go, but that was not possible. If our friend wanted to stay for 1 night it would cost 5 nights minimum of the "additional person" cost even though numerous beds were empty. We were happy to pay per extra per person, per night, but the restrictions had a negative impact on our vacation. The active motion detectors that would blink every time you moved in each room were also worrisome and a nuisance in the middle of the night. As an American, neither of these issues were acceptable, but perhaps it is a cultural difference. It was still a phenomenal property, the cat is a sweetheart, and the restaurant just out the back gate will take great care of you.

Awesome Azores Adventure

Our family of five enjoyed a truly magical vacation Nossa Senhora do Rosario! Everyone was comfortable and happy to have their own bedroom. It was also great to have three full bathrooms. The house is filled with character-stone walls, heavy wooden doors, and a beautiful beamed vaulted ceiling in the main living area. The private gardens leading to the sea were stunning and well maintained. Our new cat friend, Branquinha, greeted us at the door each time we returned from our adventures and required minimal care. The house’s location at the midpoint on Sao Miguel was fantastic. Punta Delgado is a close 10 minute drive where there are shops, restaurants and a well stocked grocery store. The construction next door was a bit intrusive as the workers were on the roof, so we felt that we couldn’t enjoy the beautiful grounds as much as we would have liked. They began work each day at 8 AM and worked every day except Sunday. We did appreciate Rita notifying us ahead of our arrival about the construction, so we weren’t unpleasantly surprised. The rooms did get stuffy since there was minimal air flow. The two upstairs bedrooms had only doors (no windows) for ventilation which needed to be shut at night for bugs and security, We purchased two additional fans so we would all be comfortable. Overall, we loved our stay at this beautiful home on this magnificent island and would definitely stay here again! Thank you for hosting us! Muito obrigado! -Laura and Stephen C.

Beautiful garden and good location

This property has a lot of character. The kitchen is well equipped, the main room's bedding was comfortable and the WiFi was very good (although only downstairs). The garden is spectacular and the view of the ocean from the upstairs terrace was beautiful. Natural rockpools are accessible directly from a gate at the bottom of the garden, and so is a restaurant and a walking trail to Lagoa. The location close to Ponta Delgada and the main motorway crossing the island was perfect. The cat was lovely, but as other reviewers have said, if you don't want to deal with feeding her and giving her a bit of TLC, maybe this is not for you. On the downsides, a few minor points. The downstairs rooms felt a bit stuffy (a fan helped) as the windows don't open all the way, they just tilt down. You can otherwise sleep with the rooms' external doors opened, but then big bugs will inevitably come in. Light-blocking curtains would be great on the bedroom windows downstairs as you cannot have the window open and the shutter closed at the same time. The BBQ is fine for 2 but a bit small if you want to cook for a whole family. Laundry drying could also be improved by providing an indoor rack for when it rains. Construction work is happening on the plot next door, which means the road got temporarily closed a few times. But the noise wasn't too bad and closures shouldn't impact renters as your car would be parked in front of the house (past the blockage). All in all, a very charming rental.

Spacious home on the sea with beautiful gardens and good value

Our extended family of 5 (3 generations) enjoyed our stay in the Casa Lisetta. It is strategically located in Lagoa, with easy access to the older roadways that run through the various seaside parishes of Lagoa and on to Ponta Delgada as well as the new highways that connect you to the rest of the Island. There is major supermarket, which includes a drug store, very close by, and there are several of good restaurants that are a short walk away, including a pizzeria. Also, it is close to a nice paved walking path that runs along the ocean for a few km. The host and team supporting the house were great. Rita accommodated our early arrival on Easter and when we had a problem with a hot water heater, Rui got a technician in to take care of it right away. The kitchen is modern with everything that you will need. While we gave this property five stars across the board, I wanted to mention a few things that we found challenging but that are no fault of the host. First, parking near the house is "competitive" to get. Second, the garden door to the ocean was damaged by a storm and unable to open, so we had to walk up to the corner and down a street to get to the ocean. Next, there is a new luxury home currently being constructed next door (Apr 2023), and the workers start construction at 0800 and the crews can block the street from time to time. Next, the description mentions a stray white cat who you asked to feed inside (food/milk/litter provided). We like all animals, so this was not a problem, and I am sure that the cat keeps any mice away. But note that the cat likes to be in the house when you are there, has a bed inside, and cries to come in, so if you don't like cats, this may not be the place for you. With that said, she is sweet (but independent and sometimes sassy) and you are likely to make a new friend. Finally, my only suggestion to the host is that the living room and upstairs bedrooms could probably use an update to the furniture and mattresses, with perhaps an additional chair or two in the living room. In summary, we highly recommend this house to people who enjoy dining and spending time outdoors in the garden, and for those who are looking for the experience of living in a traditional village. It is an excellent value for its location, esp. for those with families or group of couples. It is a good base from which to journey to all the major sites on the island, and you will it very spacious and comfortable.

Das Haus ist sehr schön renoviert und geschmackvoll und sehr praktisch eingerichtet. Mein Mann und ich waren mit unseren drei erwachsenen Töchtern und einem Partner dort. Wir konnten uns schnell auf die Schlafzimmer einigen und waren froh über die drei Bäder.Die Küche ist praktisch und gut eingerichtet. Essen konnten wir immer auf der Terrasse in dem wunderschön angelegten und gepflegten Garten. Der Weg zum Meer war kurz, sodass man schnell einmal dich den Garten gehen konnte, um zu sehen wie hoch die Brandung war und ob schwimmen möglich war.Der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin war sehr freundlich.Auch der Kontakt zur Reinigungskraft und zum Hausmeister hat sehr gut geklappt. Die Verständigung war kein Problem. Wir haben uns in dem Haus sehr wohl gefühlt. Auch die war immer in unserer Nähe aber nicht aufdringlich. Es war ein sehr schöner Urlaub.

Eine Oase auf einer wunderschönen Insel

Aus einer ruhigen Straße betritt man ein Haus, das wirklich nichts zu wünschen übrig lässt. Die Inneneinrichtung ist liebevoll und einladend. Die Küche großzügig ausgestattet. Das Highlight ist aber auf jeden Fall der Garten mit der Aussicht auf den Atlantik. Branquina, die Katze ist eine sehr freundliche Gastgeberin und man hat wirklich das Gefühl ein Ferienzuhause gefunden zu haben. Die alltäglichen Geräusche von den Nachbarhäusern sind zu hören, aber keineswegs störend. Vielen Dank für den entspannten und schönen Aufenthalt 🌞.

Beautiful House, Spectacular garden

This beautiful home was wonderful for the two of us on a return visit celebrating our first trip to Sao Miguel on our honeymoon 10 years ago. It was great to have it all to ourselves but could easily have accomodated 8. It had absolutely everything we needed and was so comfortable and spacious. It even had an extremely well behaved little white cat who enjoys human company but does not intrude. The garden complete with dragon tree is really fantastic. It has obviously been established and developed over many years and is set out in 7 levels joined by winding pathways. The range of plants is extensive and I imagine there are flowers for every month.There is always somewhere sunny to sit and I expect the same goes for shady spots in the summer. A gate at the end of the garden opens onto a pathway leading to the sea and some bathing pools. It is all so clean and well kept there is even a sand box for fishermen to stub out their cigarettes! Ruis who looks after the house was so very welcoming and patient with us when we arrived late. We cannot recommend this house enough it is really special and a beautiful home.

eine glückliche Zeit auf der wohltuenden Insel

Wir haben die Zeit auf Sao Miguel sehr genossen, die Unterkunft hat uns gefallen, vor allem der wunderbare Garten. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Branquinha, die Katze, haben wir sehr lieb gewonnen, sie hat uns an manchen Stunden im Garten und vielen Wegen durch den Garten Gesellschaft geleistet. Im Restaurant in direkter Nachbarschaft haben wir so manchen Abend verbracht, auch schon mal in netter Gesellschaft, trotz völlig fehlender Portugisischkenntnisse unsererseits. Die Natural Pools und das Schwimmbad in Lagoa waren super bei dem warmen Wetter. Vielleicht noch eine kleine Anregung am Schluss: Da die beiden Schlafzimmer in der unteren Etage doch nachts recht warm sind, wäre je eine stabile abschließbare Insektengittertüre nicht schlecht, so dass man bei geöffneter Türe schlafen kann, die Fenster sind recht klein und lassen nicht viel Abkühlung hinein.

Ortsansässiges Haustier sollte im Inserat erwähnt werden

Das Haus ist ok, etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Kleinere Handwerkerarbeiten, wie Glühlampe ersetzen, haben wir selbst erledigt. Das größte Manko war jedoch, dass die Katze, die wohl zum Haus gehört nicht im Inserat erwähnt wird. Erst Monate später erfährt man davon in den Hausrichtlinien. Aber auch da wird nicht erwähnt, dass das Tier quasi dort mit wohnt und einem wirklich irgendwann auf die Nerven geht, geradewegs man nachts schlafen will. Lage ist ganz gut.

Most charming rental ever!

The house itself and the garden were so full of character this was one of the outstanding attractions of our whole vacation. The path from the walled garden to the sea through volcanic rocks and the pools for swimming were unlike anything we've seen before. The location of the house in Lagoa about in the middle of the island made trips to the major attractions an hour or less.
