Nordestinho Vacations from $908

Stayed here again and loved it!! Came back on my last day on the island because I loved it so much on my first night there! Highly recommend! I would love to come back again one day!

We absolutely loved our stay! The location is amazing and the houseboat itself was spotless, comfortable and really well equipped. We especially loved the rooftop deck — such a lovely place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The staff genuinely couldn’t have been more helpful. Communication was excellent throughout and everyone we dealt with was so friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was delivered fresh every morning and could be tailored to exactly what you wanted, which was such a lovely touch. Everything about the stay felt really well thought out, from the amenities on board to the fantastic service. Such a unique way to stay in São Miguel and one of the highlights of our trip. We would absolutely recommend it and would happily stay again!

We had a stellar host, Cristina. She was very attentive, helpful and always there to go the extra mile. Lots of great suggestions regarding potential itineraries. We loved the sound of the ocean and view from the rooftop in the evening while enjoying a glass of wine. Her buffet and a la carte breakfast was delicious! We would return without hesitation.

It was mostly great having the volcanic pools on site. Property was heavily carpeted even though a lot of moisture and not too clean in the shared areas. Very busy with guests and not enough staff on the grounds especially during breakfast / mealtimes / trying to book spa appointments.
