About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

WelcomeBuddy - Casa do Monte - Garden & Sea sight

The house has a total of 4 bedrooms, all with private bathrooms.

The fully equipped kitchen, the living room, dinning room and huge outdoor areas turn this house into the perfect spot for family vacations. Free wi-fi is available in the living room and there’s also a TV with cable service.

Casa do Monte was recovered but most features are as close to the original as possible. The old wood stove, the kitchen floor in lavoura stone, the wooden attic room or the stone benches near the windows where the old ladies used to sat and stare at the surroundings, are few of the small things that make this house so special. Outside, a water spring lies under a small shed, close to the "casinha", the original bathroom of the old days, also restored. The lavoura stone tables and the araucárias deck, facing towards the Vila Franca islet, are places that leave their mark and invite you to wonder through the property’s garden.

One of the bedrooms is located on the first floor. Access to this floor is via stairs, passing through the kitchen.

A part of the extensive garden is fenced and with restricted access. In this area we have two dogs that guard the property when we have no guests.

The garden needs maintenance and interventions almost daily, so sometimes you can find our gardener on the property, who will also feed the dogs daily. However, and to guarantee your privacy, access is always made through a gate that exists at the end of the garden.

Guests have exclusive access to the property (without sharing it with other guests or the owners).

Available for any question before, during and after your stay. If you haven't figured out your trip, let us know, we are pleased to help.

Caloura is located in “Água de Pau”, a small village that belongs to the Lagoa town council, where you'll find a supermarket, a pharmacy and a Tourism office, amongst other services.
It’s a wonderful and quiet area, where you'll experience an overwhelming peace, typical of a small place where only some people live and most of the houses are summer residences for the locals. Very close to the house (6 minutes walking distance) there's a small fishing port with a restaurant/bar, pool and direct access to the sea. There's also a beautiful little beach, about 5 minutes away by car.

We loved our stay at Casa do Monte! The house and surrounding gardens were beautiful, and the view of Ilhéu de Vila Franca do Campo from the garden was absolutely breathtaking. The house had everything we needed—the kitchen was well equipped with all the necessary appliances, dishware, and cooking utensils.It was a little chilly during our stay, and the host had thoughtfully provided space heaters for each bedroom, which we really appreciated. Communication with the host was excellent; they promptly answered all of our questions and even suggested activities and great places to eat on the island.On our last day, we had a minor mishap while rushing to the airport. Although we of course took responsibility, we were truly impressed by the host’s professional and courteous response. It was clear they genuinely care about their guests and the experience they provide. We felt well taken care of from start to finish and highly recommend Casa do Monte to anyone visiting the island.
