Vinhas do Calhau

Beautiful apartment with ocean view! Sat out on the lanai in the eve listening to the waves! Just lovely! We only stayed one night and wish we could have stayed longer! Ana was so friendly and provided a video ahead of time with clear instructions on how to get into the unit as we were arriving later in the eve. She was very welcoming and also gave me info on what to see in our short stay on the island. We will be back! Thank you Ana

The location was fantastic. I loved hearing the ocean crashing all night from my window and the view. The restaurant on premises was delicious and there were adorable cats in the area. Highly recommend this place. I would definitely stay there again.

We recently returned from a trip to Pico Island, which included a brief stay at Vinhas do Calhau. The accommodations were spacious, clean and comfortable. However, what made the stay exceptional was the presence of the lovely Ana Paula, the woman who warmly greeted us at reception and took care of us throughout our stay. It was wonderful to feel so welcomed as we arrived. She made us feel like we had found family on the island. Ana Paula shared a wealth of information about how to enjoy the island, which was so appreciated. She helped us to plan our time to be sure that we had an incredible stay. But it gets better- when I arrived at the airport, I realized that I had left my passport and wallet in the room! We called Ana and asked her to put them in a taxi to the airport, as we didn't have time to go back and forth. Instead, she went above and beyond for us, and drove my documents and wallet to the airport to meet us! That was more than I had ever expected and I couldn't have been more grateful. We will return to Pico one day, and thanks to Ana, we know we have a home at Vinhas do Calhau.

Bioth of us were bitten all over from bedbugs- huge red itchy bumps!! Obviously the hotel staff knew they had an infestation as they came with alcohol to disenfect straight away. ‘Thats what we always do’ they said also did they confirm that its bed bugs. Stay away!!!!!!!

The staff were super friendly and very helpful. The property is truly amazing.

A wonderful small hotel on the ocean. The Manager Joana is so lovely and ensures you have everything you need for a great stay. This place is a perfect spot to explore the island including to start the historic vineyard walking trail. Highly recommend.

Beautiful property directly on UNESCO vineyard trailhead and on the port of Calhau. Staff were excellent. Breakfast was nice. Would stay again.

This hotel was a great compromise between an hotel and appartment. It made us feel at home. It's very well situated and we had the sunset right outisde our front window.

Nice for hiking right from the property, only 1.5 hr to Magdalena through vineyards and along the ocean shore. Good restaurants in Magdalena. 8 min by car. Amazing view of Mt. Pico. Very quiet.
