Casa Criptoméria

The property is fantastic. Maria & Sergio are too kind. My sons fell in love with the dogs. Allergy folks, know that the dogs do not enter the VRBO, so there’s no worries about that. Sergio and Maria were beyond helpful and even baked a birthday cake for my son, who was celebrating his 9th birthday. The house is immaculate, and the gardens are a dream. Book this property and enjoy!

This VRBO was delightful from start to finish. Sergio & Maria were charming & helpful hosts. By the time we left, we felt like we were leaving friends. If Sergio offers to take you on a ride in his buggy, take it!! It was one of the highlights of our trip! We thought we were going out for a quick ride, but we were out for a few hours having seen the most beautiful sights of the island. The home is clean and well-supplied. The view is spectacular. The hosts have 2 dogs, chickens, & ducks. The neighbors have dogs and a cow. You feel like you are on a farm, which we found to be charming. Sleeping is a challenge, however, as the neighbor’s cow and the many dogs in the neighborhood do not follow the lights out policy. Bring earplugs! It’s worth it! We would absolutely stay here again! Bravo Sergio & Maria!

Casa Criptomeria is a bit out of the way, 25 minutes for down town Ponta Delgada, however well worth the drive. After a busy day it was great to be able to return to a comfortable and quiet place. The house is lovely and the size is more than adequate for four people. Kitchen was well equipped, beds were comfortable, bathroom a bit small, no tub, not a big deal for us as we like to shower. The house is exactly as shown in the pictures and very clean. The property is nicely landscaped. When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised to find a nice bottle of wine and some treats for us to enjoy, such a nice welcoming. The owner’s Sergio and Maria were absolutely wonderful, we were treated more like good friends than just guests. They were always there if and when we required their services but never intrusive. Big highlight of our trip was a sightseeing tour that Sergio treated us to in his dune buggy, so awesome! Oh, we must not forget to mention their dog Lord, he was always there to greet us when we arrived at the guest house, enjoyed having him around. We highly recommend this place and if ever we return most definitely would stay here again. Thank you Sergio and Maria for making our holiday so memorable.
