Our B&B Pensao Francisca is located close by the village of Almagreira, VPT on Santa Maria island, Azores. On the first floor, we rend three spacious modern rooms each fitted with a own bathroom. There is a customers area where we serve breakfast in case weather conditions do not allow to serve it on our sunny terrace, you have access to Wi-Fi or a computer to check your mails etc as well. A rich "Swissstyle"-breakfast is included in the rate. Enjoy the views overlooking the plateau of Tremocal out to the Atlantic ocean. To the famous sand beach "Praia Formosa" it's just a 30 min walk, the next store and cafe is a 8 min walk away from our place.

Warm and Friendly Accomodations
Pensao Francisca was an excellent 3-night stay on our trip. Franziska and Christian were so polite and organized with everything for our check-in and check-out. We felt well taken care of and they made great recommendations for restaurants and activities. Breakfast was excellent each morning - our best on the island and such a pleasant start to each day. The bedroom and bathroom was clean and well appointed for a very comfortable stay. Finally, the property itself is such a charming place to come home to each night and spend time in the garden and patio. Would highly recommend it and would stay here again.

Amazing Accommodations and Hosts
Very large rooms and private baths. Wonderful breakfast each morning. Very convenient location between the downtown area and the best beach(Praia Formosa) in all of the Azores. Great hosts! Would definitely stay here again.

It was such a pleasure to stay at Pensao Francisca. The hospitality is impeccable and there could not have been better accommodations. Not to mention, the breakfast was so great!

Great place
We stayed for three nights. Our room was nice and the owners are a wonderful couple, very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was a great spread with handmade bread, bircher muesli, cold meats, eggs, cheeses and many different jams and spreads. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Modern accommodation situated in a beautiful location, Owners are professional,friendly and attentive
My main criteria for rating a travel destination is the question 'Would I come again?' the destination and accommodation in this case would elicit a resounding YES! in both cases. We both returned home with very positive experiences after our delightful stay in Santa Maria and the home of Christian & Franziska Thank you
