After a few days of not sleeping very well I finally got my sleep in a very comfortable bed. The views from the house and look outs our fantastic, plan to go back next year to climb the mountain of Pico and to continue the talks I had with John. Great place thanks for the hospitality. More

Everything you can read here is absolutely true! We were at Miradouro for our honeymoon and John organized for us a very nice 'welcome surprise'. His barbecue (we had chicken and fish) is fingers-licking-good! We gave him a new nickname, that is KING of barbecue! We arrived there as guests and we left as friends... John bought and cooked for... More

We were island hopping with my wife during our honeymoon and spent around 2 days at Pico. We stayed at John's and Pamela's house and the only thing we regret is that we did not spend a few days more. The island was beautiful, but this review should be more about this place. The house / room was very clean,... More

Me and my girlfriend have been there a couple of years ago, but I never took the time to write a review and thanks John, the owner. When we booked our room through the website we expected a very basic room in a so so location, but we couldn't be more wrong! Room was small but very comfortable and spotless,... More

Do not be worried about the location -- yes, the place is not next to the airport or sea harbor, but the owner generously arranges transfer for you from and to the place. Rooms and house in general and wonderful, very clean and well-kept. The owners are very hospitable and ready to give all sorts of useful advices, but they... More

Best B&B on Pico! with gorgeous rooms and sea view. We spotted dolphins multiple times from the garden - amazing! John and Pamela are THE best hosts you can wish for. Besides taking care of all B&B-related things, they help you plan your activities on the Island, have a full list of recommended excursions and also offer guided tours and... More

Very comfortable this guesthouse is located in Sao Joao on the south coast of the island PICO. It’s more than just bed and breakfast, you’ll benefit from full guest service and native advice! Our host John turned out to be hospitality in person!!! More
