Great place for two couples. Fantastic view. Excellent and very welcoming host.
Before arrival, our key concern was if internet will be sufficient to do work video calls and it was all fine and worked very well.

The location was really good, next to a natural pool. There are restaurants and a grocery shop near by. It has a really great view on Pico mountain. There are plenty of parking space in front of the building.
The check in went smoothly, and the owner was able to arrange a morning check in for us, so it's worth asking, but it based on availability and other guests leaving time.
Situated in Velas in the São Jorge Island region, Velasmar II features accommodation with free WiFi.

The host was very welcoming and gave us a lot of useful tips for our trip.
The location and view were stunning looking straight at Pico mountain! It was great to seat outside at the balcony and enjoy the view with a glass of wine and some cheese!
We were also offered bread, milk and a homemade banana jam for breakfast which was perfect.
We would stay here again if we return to Sao Jorge!

Wow, this place far exceeded what I was expecting for the price. Firstly, it is immaculately clean. My room was very comfortable and the bathrooms are spacious. It is located right in the heart of town, but it isn't noisy. I'll definitely return.

The staff was very friendly and happy help whenever needed. The daily housekeeping was done very nicely.
Amazing place. Completely stocked small supermarket.
Amazing place. Completely stocked small supermarket. Chinese store had an amazing selection of clothes, electronics, etc. Restaurants were wonderful. Everyone we meet was helpful and friendly. Go to the lagoon on the otherside of the island - heavenly. Better hydranga lined roads and fields than Sao Miguel. Call Ramos for taxi service - he is my cousin.

Piscina Natural Simao Dias, the most beautiful natural pool in the Azores. I would recommend it to others.
I traveled around the island on a rented scooter. But I thought it was safer to use a car.

Velas is a lovely little town on Sao Jorge.
Velas is a lovely little town on Sao Jorge. It isn't large but has everything you need for a week on tge island. There are several natural swimming pools with free umbrellas and shower/changing facilities (the fact they're free unlike so many places is really good). The restaurants we ate in were really good serving local produce with good value for money. The rest of the island has the spectacular scenery and Velas is a good place to base yourself to see it.

The hospitality of this village is to die for.
The hospitality of this village is to die for. Great food, pure hearted people, I recommend having a meal at Cervejaria S. Jorge with the great Chef Luísa Fernandes, take a boat tour and walk from Serra do Topo to the Fajãs. Try the local cheese and pair it with a nice glass wine. It's a healing place, too beautiful to describe. Book a longer stay, it's really worth the time

Velas is just a place to stay to have a base to explore the nature on the island. Unfortunately we had rain and fog most of the time and got to see very little. There is an excellent restaurant in the next town, Rosais. It is called O Branqinho and has a fabulous lunch for only about 8 euros.

This place was an apartment above a cake shop!!
This place was an apartment above a cake shop!! Breakfast was in the shop and it was open long hours for dinks etc. Very modern and well appointed but very noisy on two nights but this was only because it was festa time.and the stage was right next door in the market I bought some earplugs and after that it was FINE!!
The location is beautiful and overlooks the village of Velas. It is not walkable into town. You will need a car. It is a perfect retreat for relaxing and taking in the views. You will need to go upstairs for the living room
The Kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, plates cups and silverware. There are no spices or oils provided. Towels and bedding linens are provided. The pillows are nice. The beds are hard. Plenty of toilet paper and laundry Detergent. Gisela was extremely attentive and friendly.
The apartment was the perfect size for one or two people, comfortable bed with nice shower, kitchenette and shared patio. Nicely located on a hill just above Velas, with beautiful views of Costa Sudoeste, Casa Dos Lagos provided a serene experience. Will stay there again! The manager was very kind and checked in to see if all was well after a storm. She was very informative on where to go and where to eat, and was flexible on check out given the late departure of the ferry. Very accommodating!
The location is stunning, peaceful, and marvellous. From the bungalows, you have a really impressive view over the ocean, to Pico island and to Pico mountain.
The bungalow is comfortable and well equipped.
Ideally located for the airport, Ferry Port, Velas, and touring around São Jorge.
The owner is really friendly and helpful - nothing is too much trouble.
An excellent relation price - facilities.
Highly recommend for your stay in São Jorge !!
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.
The best part about this place is the incredible ocean view from nearly anywhere on site. It is high on a hill, a bit outside of Velas, with ample places to sit outside and watch the incredible sunsets.
Within 20 minutes walking distance is a beautiful natural swimming pool that was totally empty in the mornings.
The staff were all very friendly and attentive.
There was also a bathtub in the room, which was a nice bonus.
The house is located 35min walking from downtown or 5min by car. Probably the best view in Velas- Sao Jorge with Pico volcano as the landscape! The internet is good. The house has all the machines needed and the managers were very kind to leave enough clothes /dishes detergent (which is not usual in the places where I stayed) or even nespresso👌👌👌! Very calm place. THANK YOU! 👍👍👍
The small inn is located in Velas a short distance from the good restaurants and the port yet it's a quiet area. The owner, Julia, was very helpful. My room was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and very clean. There were 2 balconies, the upper one overlooking Mount Pico, the tallest mountain in Portugal. There were a few bakeries open early for the breakfast.
The property is beautifully appointed and centrally located in the beautiful village of Velas. Room was spacious, clean with views towards the ocean. The kitchen with conservatory was delightful, was so lovely to enjoy a cup of coffee while taking in the sun and views. Ana, the host, provided some great suggestions on what to visit during our short stay.
The breakfast was terrific! The owner, Leticia, her son, and Catherina were very accommodating and kind.
The hotel is located in a small village near Velas. You will need a car to move around the island. However, the views from the hotel are unique! Very peaceful place.
The cabins/ apartments are very spacious, comfortable, and clean!
The location is perfect. The room was renovated and very clean. The owners are very nice people, helpful. We had certain issues with our vacation planing and they actively found a way how to ease our inconvenience for our satisfaction. The family runs the hotel for more than 40 years.
The room was a short walk to anything in town. There’s also cafe with one of the better menu offerings in town right next to the hotel. My favourite amenity was the room’s large balcony with a great view of Pico. The staff is friendly and helpful. I asked lots of questions.
The property is located on the hill of Velas city with an amazing view on Pico mountain and the sea. Nice walking distance from the city center. Apartment is well equipped, spacious and clean. It is perfect! The owner replies to messages fast and is very helpful.
Host Mario was great!
Appt was exceptionally clean (also with provided cleaning service each day) and almost in the center of Velas. It looks exactly like on pictures. I also appreciated home products provided ss welcome gift.
Facilities are very clean. Host is very friendly. We had no problem checking in. Host was very accommodating. Met us at 2:00am to give us the keys! Public swimming spot right behind the hotel is beautiful!
Well located in the centre of Velas. Very kind and welcoming staff. Even helped with my luggage! Let me use the room early, which was a great relief since I was a feeling bit seasick!
Slap bang in the middle of Velas. Great location and walking distance to the ferry, swimming spots, restaurants, yacht basin and activities. Highly recommended
