Vacation rentals in Joao Bom

Sofia's house on the beach has an majestic view! We really enjoyed sitting on the terrace and gazing at the Islets. The house itself is super clean and has all you need for a stay in Moisteros. There is a little store very close by that sells fresh bread, local cheese by the slice (yum!) and general groceries. Restaurants are at a walking distance also. Sofia is a great and very responsive host. Thank you Sofia for a short but memorable stay in your house!

Lotus House was sensational! We were a family group ranging in ages from 17 months old to 67 years old , and the house and property were comfortable and suitable for all ages. We were thrilled to see papayas and bananas growing in the yard. The kitchen really is well equipped- we fell in love with the espresso machine. There are comfortable mattresses on all the beds and plenty of towels and bath supplies. The heated pool, hot tub, and grounds made being at home so much fun. Even when it was 56 degrees and raining we were in the pool, and it was still comfortable. The AL Acores management team was impressively responsive. We had a very minor plumbing issue which was fixed within hours. When we arrived there were diapers in the crib, which was very thoughtful, and when one of the kids needed to see a doctor, we got excellent advice and thoughtful followup check-ins. I've stayed in a lot of airbnbs, and this is definitely one of the best.

The place looks even better than the pictures. It is very light and spacious, super well equipped, everything you might need is there- even the little kitchen gadgets you don’t expect to find in a short term rental . It is also only a few steps away from a beautiful black sand beach, close to the shops and restaurants. The host was also unusually nice, even left snacks, wine and fruits as a welcome gift . couldn’t be happier with my experience. ❤️

What a unique and beautiful home for our São Miguel trip with 6 adults and one toddler. Maria left a welcome basket for us, including a stuffie for our 3 year old! The main house was spacious and charming with a mix of old and new touches. Beds were comfy and there were multiple places to sit and relax. The grounds and view from the home are gorgeous, and the resident cat was very sweet. The house is in a more rural part of the island on a steep narrow road making it a bit tough to be easily walkable but that’s a matter of not being used to the streets. There was enough in town to meet our needs and it was easy to get everywhere. Couple notes: where the bedrooms are, there’s no insulation between the floors so be prepared to hear what’s going on below or above you. Also there was no dryer, but Maria kindly helped us set up racks and dehumidifiers to get our clothes dry. Overall an awesome spot and I highly recommend!!

The property was great and Joanna was excellent. Very responsive and always checked to make sure everything was going great. Would recommend this property to anyone!

This home was a little gem in the middle of so much beauty. Beatriz was very responsive and the house could not have been in a better location.

What a peaceful, private and beautiful accommodation. The gardens are spectacular. Francisco is so easy to communicate with and provided great recommendations. We look forward to a return to this little bit of heaven!

Our stay here was nothing short of incredible. The location is unbeatable—waking up to the sound of the ocean and having panoramic views of the Atlantic from the property was a dream come true. The home was spotless, beautifully designed, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The host was welcoming and responsive. We loved the outdoor space where we enjoyed coffee in the mornings and some drinks at sunset. It truly felt like a peaceful retreat tucked away in paradise. Being so close to nature made this the perfect base for exploring the beauty of São Miguel. We can’t recommend this place enough!
