Field notes

Getting There

15m from PDL

North shore of São Miguel. You need a rental car to explore the island properly.

The Playbook

Avoid Wednesdays

Wednesdays are oddly pricey. Stick to a Friday check-in to start you trip right.

Good to Know

Ocean Front

The Atlantic crashes right below your villa. It’s a dramatic soundtrack, powerful and constant.
