Family hotels and homes in Chão Queimado

great and big breakfast with a homemade cake and some local products. Possibility of having freshly cooked dinner for a good price at the spot.

Amazing location and views. Friendly staff and good communication with management.

Really sweet and accommodating hosts, the setting is otherworldly, it really feels like being on a different planet being surrounded by such a volcanic landscape. Peaceful sunrises with the singing sound of a couple buzzing bees and incredible sunsets, not to mention the night sky filled with stars. The house itself, situated just outside of Porto Novo, is beautiful and cosy too. The beach is right at the bottom and you can walk to the center by it.  We immediately booked another night here for our return to Porto Novo.

Incredible view, and neat food at the restaurant The place is so relaxing

Great place, value for money, attentive hosts, great location, simple room but clean and nice, all that you need. Good breakfast on a nice terrace.

Amazing place. Very beautiful localisation. Very helpful and awesome staff. I will be back definitely

Awesome views to the Ocean and to a little dock where everything happens in Ponta do Sol. Great value

very nice stay at a black beach outside the city of Porto novo, great pool and sun beds, nice breakfast and very friendly owners with lovely doggies

Ideal place to stay on our hike across Santo Antao. Great breakfast, nice staff and hot water in the shower!

Excellent location, with a beautiful landscape, immersed in nature. Upon inquiring about transport from Porto Novo (where the ferry takes you) to the accommodation, the Casa das Ilhas staff kindly arranged an aluguer (minibus and main public transport in the island) that took us all the way to the accommodation. As there is no drivable road access from the road to the accommodation, the staff has also provided someone who helped us out with the luggage. The accommodation is located in the most beautiful place, overlooking the valley. The wifi worked fine. The breakfast and other optional meals were in group with the rest of the travellers. You can arrange the breakfast time though. Casa das Ilhas provided dinner (approximately 12€): you can ask vegan or vegetarian. I am vegan and my friend is vegetarian and the food was great and plenty. They do a different dish every time but you won't be choosing from a menu. It is what they give you and it is mostly done with locally produced products. Absolutely recommend. It includes drink, main and dessert. Although I think the dinners were a bit pricy for the local prices, it is absolutely worth it, especially as the accommodation is located in a remote place, it can be quite useful to have dinner in Casa das Ilhas as it can be quite of a walk to the next restaurant. There are snacks, drinks and coffee that you can take whenever you wish to, note it down and pay in the end. The staff was very useful providing information and maps of the different hikes that can be done in Santo Antao. The outdoors space is good for socialising, whilst enjoying the magnificent landscape. I really recommend Casa das Ilhas!
