We stayed for a week in June 2022. The bungalow was comfortable with a well equipped kitchenette and everywhere was spotlessly clean. Each bungalow has a private garden and a small terrace where you can enjoy a glass of wine with dinner while watching the birds and the occasional rabbit! Ricardo is the best host, knows everything about the island and will help with any queries. There is a supermarket in the village but we preferred the village shop, owned through a few generations of the same family. It's an easy drive to view the lakes or across the island to take the ferry to Corvo. We decided to walk along the northern side of the west coast path which involved a steep climb from the start but great views and Ricardo advised us when to turn back (before getting to the road) which was helpful. We would definitely recommend a stay at this lovely location.

We stayed at Sitio da Assumada for two weeks. It is situated on the most gorgeous side of the island nature-wise, just outside of the village of Fajã Grande. The bungalows feel very private, surrounded by big hedges and in between two hills, protecting it from the winds. The grounds are beautifully kept with amazing plants and flowers everywhere and plenty of space for parking and relaxing in the garden. The bungalows are clean and spacious and are supplied with all the appliances you will need for a nice and worry free vacation. Ricardo is the friendliest and most gracious host you will ever meet. He's quick to respond to any question you have and wil make sure you always have clean towels. Fajã Grande has a couple of bars and restaurants and a little supermarket for your basic needs. There are plenty of other restaurants throughout the island. The island itself, with its green cliffs, waterfalls and lagoons offers some great hiking and has the most stunning vistas and natural beauty you will ever see. We would love to come back one day.

Elegimos este sitio porque tenía una puntuacion de 9.5 en booking y nos llevamos una decepcion. OJO sospechosamente desaparecen opiniones de los clientes. La casa estaba llena literalmente de telarañas y arañas (tuvimos que matar decenas nada más llegar), puedo comprender que estemos en medio de la naturaleza y pueda haber insectos fuera pero creo que dentro no debería de haber asique salvo que te guste dormir rodeador arañas este no es tu sitio. El aire acondicionado hace un ruido horroroso y como son casas prefabricadas vibra toda la casa. La casa está bastante anticuada, con pocos detalles que la hagan acogedora, poca iluminación y no tiene ningún tipo de persiana ni cortina opaca... Además nos cobraron nada más llegar sin haber visto la casa algo que no pasa en los demás hoteles de la isla y el mundo. Precio bastante elevado para lo que realmente ofrecen. Espero ayudar a otros clientes con mi comentario y que sepan lo que se van a encontrar realmente.

Muito bom e muito bem localizado. O jardim privado dá aquele toque especial. Fica muito perto do centro da vila da Faja Grande e das principais atrações turísticas. O sr. Ricardo é muto simpatico e prestável. É daqueles sítios que dá vontade de voltar.
