Boasting views of the sea from the garden, Retiro do Tico is situated in Porto Formoso, 1.5 km from the Fábrica de Chá Porto Formoso and 9 km from Ribeira Grande. Free WiFi is featured.

The property has air conditioning and the two double rooms are mainly decorated with wooden walls and custom-made furniture. There is a open-space kitchenette fitted with a microwave, an electric kettle and a stovetop. A flat-screen TV is provided in the living room.

We enjoyed that Retiro do Tico was in the middle of the island making our day trips to the east or west side of the island easy. The location was very easy to find. We especially enjoyed the outdoor areas and the view from the patio. The neighbors are all very friendly. We walked to the beach which was only 10 minutes away. Also one day a fruit and vegetable truck stopped on the street which was great to be able to step outside and buy groceries!

It was a perfect spot for us. The view and sounds of the waves of Praia dos Moinhos was wonderful to wake up and fall asleep to. It was a quaint little town that was quiet, away from the busy streets but quite accessible to many attractions and areas of interest.

    We had the most incredible stay, the house is really well equipped, we had everything we needed and way more. The view alone is amazing and then you have this wonderful terrace to enjoy it. Host was super engaging and responsive, we felt really well cared for. Porto Formoso is a quiet village, perfect for a secluded stay but perfectly situated to visit all corners of the island at the same time. We could have stayed forever!

    Comfortable room with shared bathroom within a family home. Access to the communal kitchen with all the basics included, and a wonderful roof terrace plus garden to sit and relax in, overlooking the village and sea. The hosts Deborah and Davide are very friendly and helpful, ready to provide plenty of tips for the island and chat about their experiences of running the Handmade House. Free parking right outside, very close to the beach and a couple of restaurants.
