    Die Lage ist wirklich außergewöhnlich schön. So direkt am Meer mit diesem tollen Ausblick und super ruhig. Ein paar einheimische Fischer muss zum beobachten und wenige Badegäste im Naturpool direkt nebenan. Man kann alle Teile der Insel gut...

Property information

Casa dos Botes symbolizes the transformation of Pico Island’s economy, where whale hunting was been replaced by tourism, both important economic activities for the locals, in each century. Casa dos Botes was the result of a careful and complete architectural intervention on a historic building (1947), intended to store whaling boats. Situated on the south coast of the island, between the villages of Madalena and Lajes do Pico, Casa dos Botes is a reference in the exceptional São Caetano bay, located 50 meters from the sea. The building are composed by TWO fully equipped and independent two bedroom houses (Mar e Terra). A kayak is available for you to enjoy the magnificent landscape of the island' south coast. We hope to be your choice when you decide to spend your vacation at the wonderful island of Pico (Azores).
