Monthly Rentals in Sao Jorge

A cosy modern house in a great location for walks in the mountains

Lucia is a gem! She invited us over for Madeira wine, shared a tour of her garden, picked fruit and vegetables for us, and stopped by with cookies and baked sweet potatoes. An absolute joy to talk to (in our and her mix of Portuguese and Spanish), and we felt very much at home in her home! Sao Jorge is just 25 min from the airport, and an easy location to visit all along the North Shore -- levada hikes and town oceanside swimming pools included -- which was our goal. The view from the apartment is sweet, looking out at the town's church and the gorgeous hills above. Loved our time there.

What a super relaxed place to stay! Great view from the balcony / patio with lounge chairs and a hammock. You need a car to go to a restaurant, but there’s a fully equiped kitchen and bbq. Miguel is such a nice host. He left us bananas, passion fruit amd sweet potatoe and brought us fresh baked bread later in the week. The only thing: because it is a bit humid, the bathroom smelled a bit humid too. It did not bother us at all.

Sabino’s place is a gem - cozy apartment with stunning ocean view (lighthouse included), secluded garden with banana, avocado and orange trees with BBQ spot right there. Three minute walk brings you to the lookout point on a cliff where you can watch both the sunrise and sunset. If you’re too lazy to walk you can watch the sunrise from the balcony. We would definitely recommend this place. Sabino’s hospitality is beyond any expectations, which made our stay awesome.
