Wir waren für unsere Flitterwochen zwei Nächte hier. Es war das absolute Paradies. Die Unterkunft ist traumhaft schön und super romantisch. Glamping ist hier untertrieben die Ausstattung ist absolut 4* . Das separate Bad und die Terrasse bringen deutlichen Komfort nach langen Wanderungen. Die Gastgeber sind der Wahnsinn an Herzlichkeit und Freundlichkeit. Uns wurde sehr viel über die Insel und den Garten erklärt. Einzigartige Vielfalt an Pflanzen und Gerüchen. Wir kommen wieder aber für länger!

This place is AMAZING!! Only 5 min or so from the airport and near the main road to everywhere on the island. The yurt itself is beautifully decorated and has everything you need if you are not too picky. The bathroom is private but separated from the tent. Mind you, this place is brand new and is owned by a super friendly couple Natacha and Hugo. We loved talking to both of them while we had our delicious breakfast that they prepared in the early mornings, with the breathtaking view of Pico Mountain in the background. They were really helpful and had a lot of great recommendations for our trip in Sao Jorge. If you’re interested, Hugo can give you a private tour of his extensive garden. Quite impressive!
