Summary: As you enter through the large black gates of Vila Alegre your heart skips a beatenchanting and dreamy are the grounds of this property. The flowers, trees, plants and landscaping are captivating. The constant care that Mr. Serpa puts into his gardens is obvious. Once inside you are transported in time with the lovely family antiques commingled with all the amenities you would want. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom large with a window to the gardens. Yet you are only 15 minutes to Ponta Delgada! We were so delighted with all Mr. Serpa providedfresh fruit, eggs, bread, cheese, jam....how generous and kind. Fresh flowers from the garden in the rooms On our last evening he made us a reservation at 4 Plátanos Restaurant which was outstanding as was our table at the window with gorgeous views. Bianca was spot on with her recommendations all was perfect! If you are able eat here for sure! You will feel privileged and happy to stay at Vila Alegre on this beautiful Island of Săo Miguel.
