Pocinho Bay

Absolutely stunning property! The breakfast was delicious and the entire property is stunning. Also so close to a great bay to swim in. We were there during the hurricane and they were on top of it moving us to a different room and making sure we were safe. Loved it for our honeymoon definitely would come back!

A very unique place, full of charm and welcoming. The location is fabulous. If you visit Pico, this boutique hotel is definitely where to stay.

Had a fantastic stay here in pico. The property is absolutely breathtaking, the pool is great and the owners are delightful (truly so helpful!). Would absolutely come back here

A ten out of ten. Such a unique spot on the island of Pico! Each room feels like it is on its own. Lots of places to relax on the property. They don’t serve dinner but it is not a problem as town is a beautiful walk away. Will definitely return. And definitely come to Pico if you are coming to the Azores.

Pocinho Bay was breathtaking. From the views to the impeccable vibes of the villa and common areas. We enjoyed the villa + private pool for our honeymoon and it was perfection. Our deck and pool faced Faial Island and we had a view of the sunset each night. José and Luisa were incredible hosts and made themselves readily available and present on the property. They helped us arrange massages on the property as well the day after we hiked Pico Mountain, which was perfect. The staff of Pocinho Bay are outstanding - their hospitality was something to be extremely proud of. Be sure to take a walk through the Pocinho Bay vineyards and try their wine. It is divine! Cannot recommend enough. We’re already planning our return.

We really enjoyed staying here and wish we hadn’t booked so many tours; it would’ve been nice to just hang out. The location is a few kilometers outside of Madalena, but it was just a €7 cab ride to town. The setting is beautiful- you have the Atlantic with a swimming hole just outside the front gate. Inside there are rooms made of volcanic rock. There are plenty of little private alcoves on the property to sit and relax. There is also indoor sitting area with two hammocks. Our room (#3) wasn’t large but cozy. The walls were all volcanic rock. There was air conditioning, but we just opened all the windows and the breezes off the Atlantic kept the room cool. The owner is very engaged and works alongside her staff. Breakfasts were adequate and the WiFi was good.

Wonderful high-end property featuring villas and cottages using traditional local sourced marerials with decorations inspired by the owners travels. Our volcanic bathroom stones felt like a spa setting, a lot of love and thought has gone into creating a traditional sanctuary experience for guests, in a volcanic bay. If Mt Pico is hidden by clouds, there is another mountain directly in view. Within the resort is their own protected vineyards that you will see within the area but here they are within a valley, perfrct for photographs. Towards the beach to the right outside of the property, a new snack bar has opened for the summer season with local and international foods and great Limoncello Spritz'. We prebooked all our restaurant and airport transfer with OnTravel DMC as we don't drive and taxis are in high demand on Pico Island. Try the wine from owners vineyards, we saw that it was available on restaurant menus too.

Would give 6 stars if possible. The scenery of this hotel is fantastic, next to a cliff with shearwaters and a small protected beach. The owners are very kind and super service-oriented. Overall great experience and very nice stay.
