Casa Estrela do Mar - Unforgettable Ocean Views

Casa Estrela do Mar is an exquisite eco-friendly villa located in the picturesque village of Mosteiros on São Miguel Island, Azores, known for its stunning oceanfront positioning and seamless integration with nature. This property provides breathtaking 180-degree views of the sea, capturing both the sunrise and sunset uniquely due to its geographic location. It's within walking distance of Mosteiros' natural sea pools, inviting black sand beaches, local restaurants, oceanfront bars, grocery stores, and offers opportunities for whale, dolphin, and nature watching tours.

The villa is perfectly located on the western tip of the island offering guests easy access to both the north and south coasts of São Miguel with popular nearby destinations including the iconic “Monasteries” Basalt Rock Formations, Sete Cidades: Miradouro da Vista do Rei, and Miradouro da Boca do Inferno (most photographed location in all of the Azores) and the thermal pools of Ponta da Ferraria.

Dedicated to providing a peaceful and comfortable stay, Casa Estrela do Mar features an array of amenities, including on-call concierge services, private gated driveway parking, top-notch furniture, bedding, towels, climate control, a fully equipped kitchen with a Nespresso Machine, high-speed wireless internet, cable television, telescope/binoculars, original local artwork, a collection of Azorean-themed literature, laundry facilities, and an outdoor Portuguese Churrascaria (BBQ kitchen). The villa also offers various outdoor seating areas tailored for dining, sun lounging, relaxing in hammocks, or retreating to your private hill-top viewpoint, enhanced by an additional hot/cold water outdoor shower that boasts dramatic views of the surrounding sea and mountains.

For Summer 2024, the villa anticipates an upgrade in bedding ensuring an extra comfortable rest for up to 8 adult guests, with a new queen-sized bed in the first floor master and two twins in the adjacent bedroom and on the second floor, a queen sized bed in one room and two twins in the other.

Casa Estrela do Mar is not just a place to stay; it's an experience that combines the best of amenities, stunning natural beauty, and the convenience of being within walking distance to local attractions and services. It's an invitation to immerse in the tranquility and splendor of São Miguel Island.

UPDATE AS OF MAY 13, 2024: solid, beautiful new standard-sized beds and new mattresses in all rooms! Two rooms have 2 twin beds each, and 2 rooms have a queen-sized bed (180cm x 200cm). We also added ceiling fans to the 2 rooms in the lower level of the house. Professional photos coming soon! For now, we have added a couple of “amateur photos” we took of the rooms to the listing.

Unforgettable Visit
Six of us spent six nights at this beautiful home on the coast and could not have been more pleased. For three weeks we stayed at properties throughout Portugal and this home was the only one that felt like we were guests in a real home. The property has everything one could ask for ~ a fully stocked kitchen, a beautifully decorated interior, comfortable furnishings, outdoor furniture and umbrellas, a BBQ grill, a washer & dryer, comfortable beds, books, TV (which we did not use), a telescope, etc. The location within the town was perfect. The house faces an incredible ocean view of massive waves crashing on a rocky coast. Within minutes, you could walk to markets, restaurants, other view sites, the town square, etc. The neighborhood felt totally safe. The location within the island was exceptional. I don't think that there's another location on the island that offers the same proximity to the ocean, natural hot baths, and the famous extinct volcano crater Lagoa das Sete Cidades. The town of Mosteiros, within which the property lies, is a good 45-minute drive along a pretty windy two-lane road. Drivers are courteous and have patience with those unfamiliar with the area. Driving our 8-passenger van was a bit challenging on some drives and within narrow side streets during some of our excursions. Enjoy!

Magnificent Mosteiros
Mosteiros is an absolute dream. The location of this property was fantastic. You can easily walk to great restaurants including O Americo, Sunset Steve’s Bar, and Seaside Vibez. Also an easy walk to the market, where you can purchase everything you need. You can also walk to the natural piscinas (swimming holes) and Mosteiros beach. If you’re looking for a relaxing time, this is a great location. The property itself served our basic needs. Spacious and equipped with four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and 3 showers (one being the outdoor shower, which we loved!). Having access to a washer/ dryer was also great! The linens were very clean/ new. The view and outdoor space of the property is unmatched! Few little minor things. The beds were ok- not the most comfortable but good enough! One bedroom upstairs had a very squeaky/ old frame which we could not sleep on because it was so loud. Overall, we loved the house and location! Would recommend!

Fantastic
Very peaceful and relaxing home overlooking the water in the quaint village of Mosteiros. My five friends and I rented for a week in late Jan/early Feb and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Samuel was very quick to reply to texts and helpful throughout our stay. We would highly recommend.

What a gem! Amazing views and great house.
House was clean and fully stocked. Restaurants and small grocery store in easy walking distance. We loved the hammocks and front porch. Recommend renting a car to tour the rest of the island. Sete Cidades is a 15 min drive and just gorgeous if you like hiking. Samuel was a great host and answered all our questions! We hope to come back soon!

Awesome Location
The property was immaculately clean and generously supplied. We found a bottle of local wine and cookies as a welcome gift (very nice touch). There were also 110V converter plugs in every room for people traveling from N America. Beach and shopping bags were also in every room. The property manager was very responsive. We took advantage of the outdoor shower which has a view of the N Atlantic (very cool). The towels are like new and the bedding was as well. Bottom line is, we would stay here again.
