Our Rooms
The names of our rooms are inspired by the beauty that surrounds us.
The rock just in front of the house is a constant gathering place for seabirds - seagulls, herons, terns, rock pigeons, and Cory's shearwaters. Several species of terns nest here in the Azores, and we chose two of them to name our rooms. And since our closest neighbor is the small islet right across from us, we couldn't resist honoring it by giving its name to one of our Rooms.

The Spirit of Our Home
The spirit of A Villa by the Sea B&B is one of sharing. From the very beginning - when we decided to make this place our home - we also chose to share it: peace and serenity, the closeness to the ocean, and the view of the Vila Franca do Campo islet. We share our love for the Azores, our connection with nature, and our deep bond with the sea.
A Way of Living by the Ocean
We could tell you that you'll feel at home - that this is your home away from home - but that would be a cliché.
What we truly hope is that you feel at ease, disconnect from the world, and absorb the gentle energy this place offers.
Let yourself be carried by the sound of the waves, the warmth of the light, and the quiet beauty of this corner of Vila Franca do Campo, São Miguel, Azores.
That's how you'll truly feel at home.
Feeling at Home by the Sea
The pleasure of welcoming others and showing all that São Miguel and the Azores have to offer has always been at the heart of what we do.
More than just a place to stay, A Villa by the Sea is a way of being and living - a continuous dialogue with the sounds, scents, light, and rhythm of the ocean.
Here, time slows down. The sea is always near, and nature sets pace.
