Moinho Das Feteiras

Extremely happy with our accommodations. Our hosts were very attentive and professional. Our accommodations were perfect and the breakfast basket was a great added feature that we looked forward too each morning. We have already recommended to family and friends. When we visit Sao Miguel again we would definitely book these same accommodations. Thank you everyone at Moinho das Feteiras.

Just an absolutely beautiful place inside and out. Wonderful to have the chickens and rabbits on site. There is a bit of a problem with some very loud neighbouring dogs.

VERY strong smell of damp/mould in the property. Visibility of black mould on furniture. The extremely strong smell meant I was unable to sleep well and it actually affected my breathing during my stay and for days afterwards. It's actually a health hazard staying here. There was a huge dehumidifier in the kitchen and it had been re-painted recently so the owners know of the issue but still continue accept paying customers. Anything nice about the property is forgotten because of the mould issue. Look at the photos. I would avoid this property!!

We were supposed to stay at the Windmill at the beginning of September and booked it via airbnb. First off, the communication with the hosts were terrible. Even though they provided us with the instructions, it was not easy to get into the property. The road was closed and there's no other access. We called the manager and she told us she was there a long time ago and doesn't remember the area so cannot help us with the directions. Amazing, right? Luckily, we found a police officer and he helped us. Secondly, and this probably the only positive thing about the place. The area is very beautiful. The hydrangea covered road and the ocean view are awesome as well as the mill from the outside. However, the mill surrounding is not private at all. There're several other apartments in the area and all people staying there come to the mill every time to take some pictures. Moreover, even locals sometimes come there. So you cannot feel safe and private there. Here we are approaching the most interesting part which is sad at the same time. The mill inside looks decent (not as pictured, but close to it- I guess pictures were taken more than 10 years ago). The first thing you feel when you enter is an awful super concentrated mildew/mold smell. The wood walls are covered with black mold, the bathroom flooring is damaged, and the upstairs wood walls are destroyed by mold and water. All 3 AC units were covered in mold as well. We opened as many windows as we could to get rid of the smell, but it didn't help. We found another hotel 20 min away (which was not easy since it was Sunday evening and almost everything was booked) and left as soon as we can. I cannot understand all that positive reviews. Especially, the recent ones. Don't those people care about their health at all? Do they just care about their followers and nice pictures? I wish we would know the ugly truth about this place before we paid more than $600 for 2 nights that we eventually spent in another hotel. To sum up- AVOID THIS PLACE AT ANY COST!!!

Seaside villa was charming!! Clean, roomy interior. Wonderful view. Very protected and safe, They are making it more beautiful and inviting and are adding a pool, water fountain and more foliage. Would love to rebook again!!

The property was wonderful to explore - a lush, private garden with walkways and a pen of adorable bunnies which you can feed. The proprietor was friendly - shook an avocado tree to get us it's fruit, shared oranges grown on the property. I highly recommend this property for anyone wanting to feel safe and secure while having a premium truly authentic and unique local experience.

This booking was the most disappointing of all of the places that we stayed on our three week trip to the Azores and Madeira. We ran into several issues with the equipment on the site. We had to resolve all of our issues ourselves - from doing additional cleaning when we arrived to fixing the internet. There are many places in the Azores run by local people who are very gracious and kind. This is not one of them. I would also add that the pictures from bookings misrepresent the units. There are several stone building units, only one with an ocean view - ours was essentially a dark damp space mostly below ground.

The property was beautiful, clean and safe. There was ample parking. The scenery was beautiful with ocean views. Grocery and town all walkable with natural sea pool also close by. The communication from staff was great. Excellent breakfast provided each day which was a really nice bonus with local foods/produce.

The house is in a beautiful location with a great view at the sea and the gardens. Well equipped, clean and comfortable, within a short distance to the airport. Large basket of wonderful food for breakfast made the beginning of each day highly inspiring. It would be almost perfect if the internet worked well - frequent (every two minutes) made the communication quite difficult - possibly easy to repair.
