This 3 bedroom Residence has an exclusive exterior area, which allows private access and parking. It also has a garden where you can enjoy moments of pure relaxation watching the breathtaking view, dominated by the overwhelming and majestic Pico island, planted right there in the middle of the omnipresent Atlantic Ocean.

This accommodations allow you to keep your familiar environment while on vacations or business trips.
Repouso do Milhafre is placed on a prime residential area, middle slope of the amazing amphitheatre that is Horta s city, and turned to the one bay in Azores that belong to The Most Beautiful Bays in the World Club s.
From Repouso do Milhafre, you can depart on a walk around the city, visiting monuments, museums, commercial areas, restaurants or Peter Café, famous by its gin and by its museums, which holds one of the best scrimshaw art collections. Visiting the marina, the second with more international traffic in Europe and the fourth in the world, you ll be able to find its walls and pavements filled with colourful paintings and a boarding dock for expeditions of whale watching or scuba diving with sharks. And all this within a 1000m radius from your home.
If you are willing to venture yourself further, on foot or by car, you must pay a visit at the Botanic Garden, the P. Miguel lagoons (ideal for bird watching), the Caldeira and the Capelinhos Volcano, with its unique scenery of dark deserted sands trapped between the powerful green of the island and the deep blue of the ocean. But you should not feel trapped in Faial. By dawn, chose to journey in the ferry to Pico or S. Jorge, for another day full of adventure, emotions and discoveries. And by the time you return at twilight, appreciate the comfort and privacy of your new home. In the interiors of neutral colours and clean lines, you will be able to resume your familiar routines and relax. This is, until the Sun, rising from behind Pico just ahead of you, escapes in to your room and wakes you up for a new day. Or maybe you will prefer to sleep in, dipped in the silence and comfort of your darkened room, protected from the blaze of the sun by shutters. Rest calm, knowing that the double grazed windows inserted in walls with exterior insulation, using high-end materials, provides for your well-being. Take advantage of your new home to rest and recharge before another daily expedition discovering this easily reachable and wonderful triangle of Azores Islands (Faial, Pico, S. Jorge).
Be our guest.

Good location and nice apartment
We had a great time - and benefitted from great service from both Zelda and the home owners. The house is all new, has a nice view of Pico mountains and within walking distance from the center of Horta. The beach is also within walking distance and The super market is just around the corner. Only negative is some noise from the street in front of the house.

Lovely, well kept vacation home.
My family and I enjoyed our stay at Repouso do Milhafre. The place is spotless, and very well maintained. Beautiful views of Pico and the convenience of a grocery store a minutes walk away are hard to beat. Zelda was a great host and was very quick to respond to any questions we had. She also had lots of great suggestions for making the most of our holiday. We loved the town of Horta and the island of Faial! Karen and family, Toronto, Canada

Perfect Home Away from Home
A super clean, very spacious, comfortable house with spectacular views just above the town center of Horta. It is also conveniently located just below the grocery store so it was easy to supply with good, fresh local foods. The walk to and from town is about 10 minutes. It's steep, but easy and quite nice after exploring or going to any of the many local eateries. Zelda, the property manager, is amazingly accommodating and helpful. We would definitely stay here again on a return trip to Horta!

Absolutely perfect!!!!
A perfect house for our family. Myself, my sister, daughter and son in law had plenty of space, 3 separate bedrooms, 3 separate bathrooms, fully stocked kitchen and a store around the corner for supplies. Wonderful outdoor space. Gated property. Communication with Zelda was a breeze. She was very helpful explaining how appliances worked and places to explore. We loved our stay!!!! Thank you!!!

Everything as advertised and the views are amazing. Great location near groceries.
Our family of 4 adults and 3 small children stayed here for 6 nights. The apartment is very clean and kept. The amenities are as promised. The apartment shows true to the pictures listed on the website. The views were spectacular. Freezer had an ice maker!!! Horta can get hot but the apartment has modern windows and doors allowing for shade and for a nice breeze with screened windows. Zelda was a great help in orienting us to the island and the owner who lives nearby brought us fresh towels. Proximity to groceries is maybe 50 steps, a wonderful perk. 5 stars all around!

Perfect equipped apartment with a great view
The very well equipped, clean and spacious apartment is situated on a hill above Horta but in walking distance to the harbour (1 km). Behind the appartment (not visible) is a supermarket, so you do not need a car to stock up on food. From almost all rooms you have got a perfect view on the harbour and Pico. Very functional wifi and even a first-aid kit in the cupboard! The owners live nearby and are very friendly. Zelda, the property manager welcomed us with great kindness and has a lot of information of everything about the island. We would defintiely stay here again. A pity that we have had only five days here. Vielen Dank für die sehr schöne Unterkunft.

Incredible, comfortable, with a gorgeous view!
The place is impeccably kept, beautiful, new and comfortable. The best part is the view of Pico, from all windows and out on the deck (it's just as pictured!) Zelda, the manager, was extremely helpful and friendly. Not a single problem. The location is away from the downtown, which makes it very quiet (not that Horta is noisy!) and there are farms around the corner. You can hear the pleasant mooing of cows in the pasture. Peaceful! It's a pleasant walk to the downtown area, and right around the corner is a grocery store to get everything you need, including a cafe, so you can get your morning espresso and some pastries. When we return, we would definitely stay here again. Thank you Zelda for making our stay perfect!

Amazing place. Fantastic hosts!!
I stayed at this property with 4 friends, two of whom were a married couple. We loved this place! It was spacious, had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and was incredibly well-stocked. It is walking distance from town and the marina. The grocery store is literally in the back yard. It could not have been better! Zilda met us at the house when we arrived. She spent a lot of time walking us through the home and how everything works — the stove was tricky so instructions were much appreciated! We went to the grocery store and ran into Zilda. Thankfully, because we needed help with Portuguese labels. She was available every time we needed her and checked in daily to see if we needed anything. This was an incredible experience and I will definitely return!

We enjoyed our stay using the property as a base camp for lots of hikes in the wilderness as well as urban walks to dinner and happy hour near the water in Horta. Zilda was a great host helping us plan hikes and with restaurant recommendations.

horta
We loved the house and location. AC would be a nice touch since it gets bit stuffie over night and road gets busie very early , so open windows do not help much with a sleep. Loved that store was next door and we could walk to the town. Million dollar view from the porch. Great assistance from the manager and the owners.

Great location, amazing view, and everything you need
This place is at the top of the hill with an EXCELLENT view of Pico. It's great to wake up and take a look at the mountain. It's very large, well laid out, and has all the amenities. Having 3 bathrooms is a real luxury. Washer AND dryer make are super useful so you don't have to pack as much. It's also located right next to the grocery store, so it's an easy hop up to the market if you want to cook or get supplies. Zelda is a great host, as always and we really enjoyed meeting Lordes. Thanks for everything.

Un logement spacieux et quelle vue !
Ma famille et moi avons séjourné près de 2 semaines dans cette maison de plein pied. Celle-ci est fidèle aux photos, spacieuse, très agréable à vivre et avec une magnifique vue depuis toutes les pièces sur le Pico. Un pur plaisir pour les yeux du matin au soir. La maison est très bien équipée, je noterai tout de même l'absence de lave vaisselle, et meublée avec goût... Côté emplacement le port de Horta est en bas de la rue, compter 3 minutes en voiture. Une superette est située derrière la maison, très pratique ! Zelda est formidable, très serviable et à l'écoute. Un grand merci pour son accueil. Seul "point noir", mais un petit, la route passante et parfois un peu bruyante en journée. En résumé je recommande sans aucune hésitation cette maison !

La maison de Zelda est très belle, confortable, bien équipée et très bien située, le seul bémol est la proximité d’une route très passante. Mais nous avons dépassé un excellent séjour, sachant que notre hôte n’hésitait pas à répondre à toute nos questions ou nos envies. Accueil très chaleureux et très sympathique. On a adoré

The house was exactly as shown and described on the HomeAway page. The place was super clean!
Zelda's house was perfect. It was in a great location, within a brisk walk of the Horta marina, and downtown shops and restaurants. It had a breathtaking view of Pico island, the ocean, and Horta port. Zelda greeted us at the house. We had been communicating on a regular, so it was great to finally meet gere and be there. The house was large and super clean. Everything our group of three needed was there. Plenty of bathroom towels and kitchen linens were provided. Every bedroom had a beautiful view, as did the kitchen, dining room and livibg room. Even one of the bathrooms had a great view! Zelda went over any details we might need to know. She also sat down with us ro go over our planned activities and helped us set up a tour around Fayal island the next day and a Pico island tour the say after that. She called and arranged everything with her great contacts right then and there. She also gave us recommendations on restaurants. Zelda was very welcoming and made us feel like she was there to make our trip the best, which she did! The kitchen was modern, with the appliances needed to make our stay comfortable. It had a washer and dryer, so convenient for us. The beds were comfortable too! We could lavish praise on Zelda and the property on and on. The bottom line is that out of four vacation rentals on our 3-week trip in Europe, , this was by far the best one that we had. We want to return as soon ad possible!
