Casa BuonVento

A wonderful stay in a strategic location in Horta - just steps from Peter's Sport Cafe, yet on a quiet street with great bay views (on a clear day). Hosts Elena and Jerry were exceptionally welcoming and provided detailed guidance and practical tips that made a real difference - so that even with consistently rainy weather throughout our stay, the vacation wasn't ruined. The room itself was comfortable and well-equipped enough to make the rainy days genuinely enjoyable - additionally, having a designated shelf in the fridge and a well-organized shared kitchen was a pleasant surprise. In general every detail of the place has a lovely, thoughtful touch. Thank you, guys! We would absolutely return.

Con: it rained the whole time. Pro: we didn't want to leave anyway.

A gem of a place, super central but quiet, charming hosts, impeccably clean. Use of the kitchen included essentials such as coffee, butter, oil, salt & pepper and condiments, which makes a real difference.

The building is so quiet that noise travels quite clearly between the rooms, but it's not a party place anyway.

For me the place was fresh, clean, with a minimal vibe but had everything i needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Owner even assisted with arranging a rental car for me before I arrived and then suggested where to go. Nice tough was plenty of outlets in all the right locations to recharge my electronics.

There were 2 minor things that I only mention because you are looking for negatives but I think these are more to do with the age of the building and the location that anything else. No toilet paper in the toilet it must go in the bin, and the hot water takes a couple of minutes to reach the room but neither would keep me from returning. Unlike many ads I see on booking theirs was very honest about what you can expect.

Elena and Jerry were the best hosts during my all too brief stay in Horta. They are both very friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. The location was very convenient and offered beautiful views over the harbour from my window. The room was exceptionally clean, relaxing and quiet. The kitchen was very clean, well stocked for tea and coffee, juice, biscuits and cooking essentials. I will be back to stay longer and see more of Faial- thank you both!
