The best holiday de Michael, Pavla and Freya 01/Apr/2012 (regarding a stay in February 2012)

We are frequent travellers and have been to many places, but this one was really special. For the first big holiday with our baby girl (13 month at arrival) we were looking for a place which would give us freedom and comfort and this is what we found at Casa Da Canada. Right from the first contact with the owner Antonio we knew this is the place to go and we were really lucky. For this 23 days in this house we had everything we needed and much more. The weather was perfect just one day conplete of rain the rest sunny and nice something which we had not expected end of February until mid of March. The location and the equipment in the house are excellent. Beeing right in the middle of the island with direct acces to the new build motorway you can tour the whole island with a breeze. We can even recommend this place to be travelling with small children with no exception. But the best is the contact with the very kind owner itself we had the chance to meet Antonio on our way back via Lisbon and had a wonderfull day with him. Thanks a lot again to Antonio and we are very sure if we come back to this wonderful island this is the place to stay. Michael, Pavla and Freya.

Litle paradise de Bine & Ricky 22/Feb/2012 (regarding a stay in February 2012)

We searched a calm and peaceful place and we found this beautiful house next to Ribeirinha. The little house offers everything you need for comfortable and stress less holidays. Outside you have a wonderful view to the seaside or to the Fire Lake mountain, a nice possibility to seat outside and even to have a barbeque. It is lovely decorated and well kept. We can only recommend this place to everybody who likes a private and individual place to have some wonderful days off.
Regarding the owner of the house, Mr. António, he was very friendly and helpful since our first contact, thanks Mr. António for the great place, help and recommendations.
For sure that we will chose this house if we ever plan to visit São Miguel again.

Casa da Canada in October de Lia 25/Oct/2010

At first sight rather basic but once settled in it felt quite comfortable and it has everything a house needs, and is nicely situated close to Ribeirinha and Ribeira Grande. We understand now why the outside shutters had to be closed, not for the sun but the storm ythat raged when we arrived. The very helpfull owner: o senhor Antonio gave us a lot of information about the area, restaurants, hiking trails and things. The weather unfortunately wasn't too good to be sitting outside but we did see a lot of the island in wind, rain, mist but also sunshine. The surroundings are very quiet and peaceful though the construction of the new road has a great impact on the area but when ready it will be a great improvement to the island people. Even this time of the year there were many flowers and we loved having the ocean in view everywhere you go. Definitely a place to come back to!!

A very individual place de Claudia, Steffen und Georg 20/Oct/2010

The little house is located centrally on the island and therefore is an ideal starting place for exploring the entire island.
It is appropriately equipped and comfortable and there are no neighbours in the vicinity that could harm the quiet.
From the terrace you get a wonderful view of the sea, Ribeirinha and the northern coastline, so it is a perfect place to end an adventurous day.
Antonio is a very caring landlord. Already long before the start, he helped us with planning our holidays on Sao Miguel, and we recieved many useful tips and information as well as detailed suggestions for trips around the island. In the end we spent great holidays and Antonio contributed to that with his accommodation and advice, many thanks for that!

A place of dream de Rutger 19/Feb/2009

We are regular travelers. We found in this accommodation surrounded of beautiful landscapes an ideal place to enjoy the natural beauty of the island. We felt ourselves close to everything. The house is neat, comfortable and well decorated. The family loved these fantastic days. Obrigado, Mr António for your kindness and sympathy.
