The peace and quiet and space.
Even in indifferent weather it was a joy to sit outside watching the clouds and the sunsets.
The staff went the extra mile when we panicked over a mislaid passport.

The breakfast was wonderful! There was a selection of fruit, overnight oats, muesli with different things to add (nuts etc) and a wide selection of delicious jams, plus eggs cooked to order. The breakfast room is also a shared sitting area with views towards the ocean one way, and the Pico volcano the other. The room was large and bright, and very comfortable.

Inès and Hugo welcomed us with exceptional hospitality. They paid exemplary attention to our needs through both their actions and the quality of their presence. We are grateful for the wonderful moments shared. As a conscious, smiling, and caring couple, we wish you many fantastic experiences ahead. The owners of Alma do Pico are fortunate to have you, not only when they are present, but especially in their absence. You care for the place as if it were your own, showing remarkable commitment.

Very nicely decorated two-floor apartment, friendly staff (especially Anna) who explained us everything and gave us a lot of recommendations what to do on Pico Island. The apartment is also very close to the sea and has an outdoor terrace. Definitely recommended to have a sea view apartment and a rental car.

The host Stefan is extremely lovely. I was given a quick tour of the hostel and was free to choose whichever bunk bed I wanted. The beds are amazing: outlet, personal light, curtains that let no light in, space to put your things, very comfortable mattress, large lockers. The breakfast was also lovely. Stefan will make you his signature pancakes (also vegan and gluten free if you want). There is also yoghurt, bread, different jams, fruit and cereal. Speaking of food: make sure you participate in the "family dinners". The home-cooked meals (form starters to soup, main, and desert) are amazing. Stefan not only cooks better than most restaurants I have been to on the azores, but you'll also be fed until you explode and that for a very fair price. Finally, I loved the co-working space with nice chairs, privacy and fast WIFI.

The property has a beachfront location with stunning view to Faial and the coastline.
Typical island property with many details in wood perfectly crafted by the hosts.
Absolutely clean and cozy, making our stay a memorable experience in Pico.
Monique was our host, always very helpful and kind.
Having a coffee early in the morning or a sunset drink at the main balcony is a rare and exquisite experience.
We will be back!

The entire experience from the first to the last minute was absolutely incredible. The house is beautiful and with a super cosy decor. Not to mention the huge garden that brings us peace and takes us into the middle of nature (you can even relax in a hammock!!). During our stay, we had a 30th anniversary and the accommodation offered us a (huge) cake and sparkling wine. All these treats make a difference and raise our expectations compared to other places.
Carolina (Reservation Manager) is lovely, super available and made us "feel at home"

I had not been back to Pico Island since 1998 during the year of the earthquake in the Azores. Since that time the Azores has certainly become quite different but in a positive way. This is a small quaint village that offers you all of the modern comforts to explore the beauty that is The Azores. Despite the modern amenities it still keeps it's old world charm. Lest we forget, the wine and the food. Magnificent!

Good place to stay when traveling to Pico Island - relatively close to the airport, has all the necessary facilities (taxi, banks, supermarkets, restaurants), and there are also year-round ferries to go to neighboring islands from there.

Central to everything that is required. We rented a car and drove by the whole island. (110 km.). We stopped in a few villages for a coffee, or beer, or just to drive through. Madalena is definitely our favorite.

Madalena is a nice small town suitable to serve as a "base" for exploring Pico and Faial islands. The ferry port is in the city so it is easy to commute and includes several rental cars companies as well as tour guides for climbing mount Pico.
The nearby natural pools has served us to refresh after a day long trail.
We recommend checking out the local wine museum where you can find the oldest dragon tree as well as trekking in the wine trail that starts just near Madalena.
In the town we enjoyed eating at the Mercado Bio restaurant that serves a nice variety of dishes suitable for all taste and preferences.

Small town with a few restaurants and church.
Small town with a few restaurants and church. There are some nice fish restaurants. Wine museum is worth a visit.
There are a few whale watching, snorkelling, and diving companies, also companies that can arrange land tours and trekking. It is close to the Pico mountain. The problem I had was, it was off season and the tour companies did not seem very interested to arrange activities for tourists. You really have to make an effort yourself to find and arrange any activity. My initial intention was to do some scuba diving with sharks or snorkelling with dolphins. But due to weather conditions (however I have to say that on at least 3 days I was there the weather was very calm, but perhaps there was a bit of surge) and lack of engagement of tour operators it was not possible. I only was able to go on a single whale watching trip (where we did see a couple of whales).
The best part of my holiday was when I rented a car and drove around the island myself. The island (Pico) is very lush and green, very scenic.

This must have been quite the hotel in its day but is quite dated now. Some of the staff were helpful while some were not helpful at all. We were here in the off season so maybe that had to do with it.
The hotel is amazing. The room we stayed was a duplex (two floors) with on the ground floor a big living room with a kitchen and a huge terrace outside and on the first floor the sleeping room and the bathroom. The room was nicely decorated and the view over the sea and Faial island is amazing. The hotel has also a private parking which is very useful as you need to reach it by car.
Cozy house at walking distance from Madalena and the Vine yards. It is not very big but has everyhing you need and very very clean. Good bed and best walk in shower. Welcome basket tonger you started in the morning and washing machine with products(not used because of weather) Big supermarkt in the area. Very quiet. Very well communication with owner and receiving keys.
The location was fantastic, right in the middle of Madalena, right in front of the harbour where you can ride a boat to Faial Island, also 5 minute away from a large supermarket with everything you need to make your stay more pleasent.
Amazing view from the terrace, you can enjoy a beautiful view of Faial island.
The house is very well located, right in the center of Madalena. 2 minutes walk from the Harbor.
The owner lives in the house next door and is very helpful.
In the kitchen is everything you need and we had a view of mount pico from our room.
Overall the beds are comfortable and the interior design is well picked.
Gorgeous house, beautifully decorated, spacious, clean, amazing views of Faial, beautiful sunsets. Very friendly host. The most beautiful surroundings to the house with lovely coastal walk and natural swimming pool in a nearby bay. Great views of Pico on the way into Madalena. Vinyards also in the vicinity.
The view from the front door was an impressive view of Pico mountain. The location was great. It was close to swimming and the town of Madalena, and quiet. Lots of good restaurants and easy to get around. Shopping for groceries was convenient, as was using this location as a starting point to visit Pico.
Big room with daily cleaning service, a nice view of the ocean and Sao Jorge island. A place where you can stay for weeks and not just for few days. Staff and owner are friendly, location is close to the center of Madalena, close to the propriety it is a big grocery store. Parking place available.
Federica and her star are so kind and always helpful sort out anything related with your stay on the island.
The views from the hotel are stunning and the rooms super cozy and clean.
Definite recommendation for your stay on pico Island
Lovely apartment in the heart of Madalena. Patricia is very welcoming and treated us kindly, we had a great stay here. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom was good too. It's a perfect base for exploring both Pico and Horta.
Brand new structure, large and equipped rooms, strategic location 15 minutes walk from the center and the port of Madalena. The reception ladies very nice and helpful. We couldn't find any flaws!
Very clean and tidy. The location is perfect, just next to the pier and the center of Madalena. The breakfast was great: a wide variety of products with great quality.
Location is excellent and right in the center of Madalena close to airport, city center, transportation and activities. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
Very nice and cozy rooms. Great location above a nice restaurant and place to have breakfast. Also very central in Madalena. Very nice and helpful host.
