Nestled in the serene village of Santo António, Maria's Haven truly lives up to its name as a sanctuary for weary travelers. Having read the glowing reviews, we arrived with high expectations, and we were not disappointed. The two-level accommodation provided ample space for our group, ensuring everyone's comfort and privacy. The well-maintained garden with a place for Bonfire and BBQ stocked with firewood and other necessities offered a perfect retreat where you could unwind after a day of exploration. Maria herself was the epitome of hospitality, extending a warm welcome and ensuring that our every need was met. Our overall experience at Maria's Haven was nothing short of exceptional :)

I recommend Maria's excellent accommodation! There were ten of us, and we comfortably fit into the 6 rooms. The apartment is fully equipped and clean. Upon our arrival, some local delicacies awaited us on the table. The garden was filled with banana trees bearing fruit. The area is quiet and peaceful. Maria is an attentive host. Thank you!

Defenetly our best stay in the island. Maria was very very kind, and helped us with whatever we needed. The house is amazing, the garden is magical. You can eat bananas directly from the trees, Maria even told us to take some for the way. Very clean, very good prepared, kitchen with everything you might need, barbacue on the garden. We were a little bit sad we spent only one night there. Defenetly recommend to anyone, especially for this price!

The apartment is very spacious, clean, well maintained. We felt like at home. The host, Maria, is extremely friendly and helpful and will go out of her way to help you feel welcome. We got a complementary wine and some snacks. This was a very kind gesture. The washing machine was definitely needed as we were travelling light. Santo António is just 18 minutes away from the Ponta Delgada airport. There's a small village shop 350m away from the apartment. The lovely garden is shared with other guests!

The house is beautiful, with wonderful garden out back, our hostess was very nice and provided us with a lot of tips for sightseeing and places to visit on the island. We were even greeted with a gift basket full of local treats which saved the day after am entire day of travel. Recommended for bigger party of friends or family :)

I arrived earlier than planned but Maria was so kind to accommodate me anyway. Travelling alone it was waaay more than I needed but what I used was truly excellent. At the risk of being too praising I really have nothing bad to say. The cleanliness was also noticeable. A fantastic view of the ocean and further parts of the island. If I visit again I hope to stay here, but then with company ofcourse ;)

The house is amazing, big, with garden, swimming pool 2 minutes from the house. All the furniture is new and the mattress are very very comfortable. The best thing was that Maria is an amazing host, always ready to help in any possible way. We are very thankful to her and hope be back soon. We only have great things to say about Maria's Haven!
