The owner was so friendly and helpful! She helped us get a taxi driver to drive us around for most of the day to all of the places we wanted to go, she spoke amazing English as well. The view was beautiful and so amazingly peaceful at night.

The spectacular views of the bay and both headlands (Moros) visible from this Quinta as well as the quiet, super clean and peaceful setting, were all big pluses for me.

Amazing view of the ocean and cliffs. Tables scattered throughout the property for a secluded breakfast surrounded by cool plants a flowers. Staff was soooo awesome. They heard we were leaving early and would miss breakfast and they packed us lunch baggies to eat in the road. Amazing place I hope to come back

Very nice views, a lot of places for evening chill out at sunset. Separate Dining room offer simple breakfast and view to the bay. Very quiet location, about 30 min walking from the Harbour. Natural pools for bathing are about 15-20 min walking distance. There is a Chinese restaurant 15 min walking, that offers fast and tasty food without in Velas obligatory reservations. The guesthouse is run by Maria and husband who are very helpful, and may provide guidance on trips and transportation. That even gave a lift from and to the airport, which is, given the limited capacity of taxi on the island, a slight challenge. The guesthouse is composed by several rooms with bathroom located in several levels attached to the hillside. Although each with its own entrance, it may require more ventilation during the day and night.

The breakfast was perfect, the location with the views amazing and all the areas to sit and relax. We arrived late in the evening and they had left us a small plate of cheese, bread and a chilled carafe of Maria's husbands homemade tangerine liqueur, quite tasty! We did not have a car and walking into Velas in the evening for dinner and back was quite pleasant.

A very beautiful and quiet place with a great view of the landscape and the ocean. The center of Velas is about 15-20 minutes walk from the place. The rooms are nice and they are cleaned every day. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They even helped us to hire a car, that was really great because it is almost impossible to get one in place. We also enjoyed the homemade jam at breakfast. It is really a great place to stay at São Jorge.

Quinta do Canavial is located at the most beautiful spot on Sao Jorge and the staff goes above and beyond to make you feel at home right away. From a nice welcome drink + bite to great breakfast, to support in finding good hiking routes, they're extremely kind and helpful. They even raced to the port to bring us a shirt we had forgotten after we had already left. So sweet!

I absolutely loved the staff and the vibe of Quinta Do Canavial! The pool area was a blast, it was so nice to have that option of going to the pool after a long day of exploring.

The facilities are located pretty close to the center of Velas, and has an amazing view. The room was wide and equipped with 3 beds; functional setup with what you need for a stay in sao jorge. The staff has been friendly and helpful.
