Adega Velha is a wonderful place to escape to and enjoy the island of Pico. Hosts FĂĄtima and Helio were so welcoming and helpful. Morning coffee on the patio with great ocean views, swimming in the ocean, hikingâŠ.lasting memories. Thank you!
Pico ist eine wunderschöne Insel, wir haben dort ĂŒberwintert. Das Haus Adega Velha ist so schön, liegt phantastisch und ist sehr gemĂŒtlich. Das beste an unserem Aufenthalt aber waren unsere Gastgeber Fatima und Helio Soares. Wunderbare Menschen, die sich um alles kĂŒmmern, uns mit allem versorgt haben, was man sich nur wĂŒnschen kann. Die Beiden sind zu Freunden geworden und haben unseren Aufenthalt auf Pico so wunderschön gemacht! Obrigado!
This place was so awesome!! It had everything we needed and if we needed something our host was always available.. in a great location with beautiful views.
Um paraĂso na terra. Excelente anfitriĂŁ, simpatia e disponibilidade top.
Recomendo devidamente os seus serviços.
Casa bem equipada ,limpa acolhedora.
O nosso muito obrigado por tudo.
Very cosy little cottage with spectacular views, itâs was very quiet and peaceful, comfortable .
Cosy little palace for a couple, with easy access to surrounding areas,
Fatima and Helio Are amazing hosts, they gave us a warm welcome and made us feel at home. The welcoming basket with local produce and wine was much appreciated. They were both helpful in guiding us and provide informations about the island. A car is recommended to get around and the food at the restaurants is excellent but Pico wines are really the best.
I would recommend to use google maps to locate the restaurants as it can be challenging on your first drive. The local bakery provides excellent bread. The cottage has everything one needs including good internet and cable television. We had a quiet, restful vacation which was very enjoyable.
Thank you to Fatima and Helio and we might be back for a future visit

Vehla Dega ist ein kleines nettes HĂ€uschen in dem man sich schnell wie zu Hause fĂŒhlt. FĂ tima eine groĂartige Gastgeberinn die immer fĂŒr ihre GĂ€ste da ist.
Wir freuen uns schon auf das nĂ€chste mal, herzlichen Dank fĂŒr den schönen Urlaub.
Eine sehr schöne Unterkunft auf einer wunderschönen Insel
Zu dieser Unterkunft passt die Beschreibung "Klein aber oho".
Wir waren Ende Januar fĂŒr knapp eine Woche auf Pico und haben uns spontan in die Insel verliebt.
Dieses Haus liegt im SĂŒdosten der Insel in einer (im Winter?!) sehr ruhigen Wohngegend. Die KĂŒche ist mit allen GerĂ€tschaften ausgestattet,die man benötigt,uns hat nichts gefehlt. Es gab auch ein Starterpaket (Brot,Butter,Milch,selbstgemachte Marmelade (sehr lecker!) und ebenfalls Wein aus eigener Herstellung).
Es gibt auch eine Waschmachine und auf der Terasse einen Grill.
Wir haben die Zeit auf der Insel und auch in dem Haus sehr genossen.
FĂ tima ist/war beim Check-in sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich.
Wir können dieses Haus (und die Insel sowieso) uneingeschrÀnkt empfehlen.
Wonderful Christmas and New Years Eve in Adega Velha
My wife and I stayed in Adega Velha over Christmas and New Years Eve. We immediately felt home in the cozy small house. Even though Fatima was not at home over Christmas, she always took care about us and received immediate response if we needed anything. The people in the town are very friendly, the neighbor welcomed us and gave us fresh oranges as a gift. The view from the balcony onto the sea is really beautiful, on New Year we had a barbecue and enjoyed sitting there. We really recommend staying here!

Fatima and Helio are incredibly hospitable and real life lovers :-) It's one of the most beautiful holiday houses in which we ever stayed. From the balcony we saw whales and dolphins and listened to the funny birds that come during nightfall from the sea to Pico. The house is located at a quiet place, a place to relax. Otherwise, there are beautiful hiking trails near by. The hike to the top of Pico, the highest mountain of Portugal will be rewarded with an overwhelming view. If you plan to do whale watching, Serge in Lajes (http://www.espacotalassa.com/) is great and something special in comparison to other companies. We learned a lot about sea life in advance, before we went to the sea. And there we saw a blue whale, incredible (season in May).
Fatima und Helio sind unheimlich gastfreundlich und echte Lebensgeniesser :-) Es ist eines der schoensten Ferienhaeuser in denen wir jemals waren. Vom Balkon konnten wir Wale und Delfine sehen und die lustigen Voegel hoeren die zum Einbruch der Dunkelheit vom Meer das Land aufsuchen. Das Ferienhaus liegt an einem ruhigen Ort an dem man die Selle baumeln lassen kann. Ansonsten gibt es in der Umgebung schoene Wanderwege. Der Aufstieg zum Pico, dem hoechsten Berg von Portugal wird belohnt mit einer ueberwaeltigenden Aussicht. Unbedingt das Whale Watching bei Serge in Lajes (http://www.espacotalassa.com/) buchen wenn ihr das vorhabt. Vorab haben wir viel gelernt ueber das marine Leben, bevor es dann aufs Meer ging und wir dort einen Blauwal gesehen haben (Saison im Mai). Der absolute Oberhammer!
Adega Velha was a perfect place for the two of us while we explored Pico. Although it is a very small house, it was impeccably clean, comfortable and beautifully appointed. Everything you could imagine needing was there, tidily tucked in to its own appointed space. The view from the house is exceptional, and we found the quiet location so charming and restful. Fatima and her husband were extremely gracious, even leaving us a gift basket upon our arrival. I highly recommend this guest house and will gladly stay there again if back in Pico.
