AtlanticWindow - Modern House, Stunning View

The island of Pico, and in particular Santo Amaro, in addition to the land of the grandparents, has always been the family vacation spot. Here we grow, we build boats, learn to swim, to fish and to live with nature.
The desire to have their own space here, a house where they could revisit the past, rest and enjoy the city from the room, still well guarded and genuine, just materialized years later. The houses, built with modern lines, but with the use of local stone both outside and inside, are designed to take advantage of the great location.
The sea and the Pico Mountain, neighboring locations, and across the island of S. George, part of the view. Outside, remained the tradition of stone walls with different heights and routes fit any space.

Too close to Heaven
Its an amazing house all around. Don't look any further. If i ever visit Pico again, I would stay at this house over and over again. There is a super cute restaurant 200 meters from the house. Very good food. Great atmosphere. Narural pool for swimming down the road. You can see it from the patio. But to get there , you have to drive down. The property is about 30 minites from the airport. Its just everything I could dream of and more. Thank you for letting us stay in this paradise. swimming down yhe road

Best place to stay on Pico.
We have returned to the Atlantic Window for the second time. The view is outstanding and everything else about the house is wonderful. The kitchen is fully equipped and I did not miss a thing. The house provides plenty of space and the three bedrooms are beautiful and all have the wonderful view. Washing machine and dryer are convenient. Most of all the person maintaining the property is just wonderful. We felt well taken care of and appreciated all restaurant and other recommendations. We could not have been happier and look forward to our next visit.

Beautiful Inside and Out
We had three couples in our group and the house accommodated us well. The house was just as pictured, it was comfortable, very clean and had all that we would need while we were there. Maria was available to answer any questions we might have. The views from the house were spectacular, it was easy to relax on the back porch all day and into the evening. Inside, the house was decorated very smartly and provided a nice space to gather for a meal and conversation. I highly recommend the Atlantic Window!

Amazing!!
The views were absolutely amazing…Mt Pico in the distance, sunsets and beautiful views of the ocean. Walk down to the beach took us by beautiful flowers, adorable cows and the friendliest donkey. Beds were comfortable, showers great and a stocked kitchen. We loved the location. Helena…was amazing. She provided a warm smile upon arrival, invited us to the village festival and meal, educated us on history of the island and when we had to leave festival before they distributed the holy cakes, she had one waiting at the house for us. Pico is an amazing place and can’t recommend a visit more and do yourself a favor…stay in this beautiful house. We hope to return one day.

Home in paradise
The home was beautiful and comfortable for the four of us. You will need a car for your trip but exploring the island is well worth the expense!! Helena was absolutely amazing and accommodating with helping us get our luggage from the airport to the home and back again. We hope to get back sometime to check out the different seasons and take time to see the different islands as well.

Absolutely great residence in a quiet environment
Great property with views that are simply incredible. A bit away from any shopping, so buy your groceries on the way in from the airport. A rental car is a must. Our hostess, Helena was wonderful and provided a list of wonderful restaurants and other items. The property was very clean, modern, and well equipped. We enjoyed our occasional conversations with the owners via WhatApp. Highly recommended to all visitors to Pico.

Wonderful
The caretaker, Helena, was amazing. She was available to help us find the property, restaurants and even when we were lost (which was often). Doubt that any picture could show the actual beauty of the house or the view. I will forever miss cagarros doing their crazy song at night. The island was gorgeous and unique. There is not enough good I can say about our stay, except, I wish it had been longer. I will carry Pico, the cagarros and the caretaker forever in my heart.

Wonderful hosts, outstanding view, beautiful house!
From the moment we entered we loved the house. We received a warm welcome by the host who had actually provided us with some bread, eggs, and coffee. We felt instantaneously welcome. The house was exactly how we had pictured it in our best imagination. Everything was clean, the bathrooms were nice, the living area comfortable to sit in when it was a little too chilly to be outside. The kitchen is very well stocked and we did not miss anything on the days we cooked ourself. The tips and information provided by the hosts are very detailed and helpful. There is absolutely NO negative think I can say. We had a wonderful time on Pico, the house was all we hoped for and we absolutely will be back. Thanks to our hosts for the warm welcome and wonderful environment provided!!!

Morning rainbows
We had a wonderful week at this home and exploring Pico. The views are stunning and almost every morning there was a rainbow. Helena was very helpful with ideas of must sees and restaurants. All of which were great. It was nice to be able to walk to Magma restaurant when we were too tired from hiking to cook.

THE Atlantic Window
It is hard to know where to start. We knew we wanted to stay in this house from the moment we saw it - we booked 8 months in advance. And still. Nothing could have prepared us for how beautiful the setting was, and the pure delight of being in this home. We stayed two weeks so we had a chance to settle. It's full of light and the range of unobstructed ocean view and beyond, onto land, is greater than 180º. You can hear the sounds of the ocean, the birds, the livestock. The hydrangeas were stunning to see in their abundance around the house (and the island); the cagarros made us laugh every night. With the windows that cover the entire north side of the house, we had the sensation of always being outside so while the porch is lovely and comfortable, if the breeze picks up, you lose nothing by moving 10 ft to the south, into the house! This place provides both immensity of experience (so much blue!) and intimacy (it's set down off the road and there is nothing but pasture moving down the bluff in front of the house.) We came for both rest and adventure, and got both in equal measures. The blackout shades were a plus for finding our own rhythm. This is a quiet island - we loved it. We walked/hiked daily on trails all over the island. We swam in the piscina near the house. We cooked in (with fresh lemons and rosemary from the garden) and ate out (don't miss Ponta da Ihla Restaurant in Piedade.) Helena was a generous and responsive property manager. We enjoyed her tremendously. Estela and Mizé are quick responders, and warm, clear communicators. This home - its location high on the bluff, the windows, the range of what you can see: it is unique among the island homes. Our experiences on the island were fuller, richer because of our stay at the Atlantic Window.

Heaven on earth!!!
The property is absolutely lovely and well appointed. It is easy to cook because of the utensils and bowls, etc. The view from the kitchen makes cooking time a joy. The beds were comfortable, and the views as you wake up are amazing. We spent a week at the house as part of a month-long vacation. This was far and away the best location of our trip. We hope to come back in the future.
