Fajã Grande sits on the west coast of Flores Island, between the cliffs and the Atlantic — waterfalls, volcanic pools and stone-walled fields wrapped in hydrangeas. Orchid House is within walking distance of the black-sand beach, and a short walk or drive from Poço do Bacalhau and the emerald pools of Poço da Ribeira do Ferreiro.

Your hosts
“We are spontaneous people who leave room for coincidence — that’s how we found our long-dreamed house on Flores Island, at the end of a long walk from Lajedo to Fajã Grande. We knew instantly this house was meant to be ours, and we’re so happy to share this piece of heaven with you.”
Our co-host lives next door and is always happy to help with anything you need during your stay.
In our guests’ words
One of the most special touches was being greeted with a beautiful bounty of fresh greenery from the garden, along with a bowl of fresh eggs from the chickens! It was such a thoughtful and memorable welcome.
Tracie WatsonCalifornia, USAAirbnb review The house was clean, spacious and well equipped. For me the best thing was the view over the sunset from the garden, the terrace and the windows.
MarcoGoogle review The house is very spacious and allows 8 people to stay very comfortably. The kids enjoyed the outdoor courtyard and the vegetable garden behind the house. The location is excellent and allows you to reach the sea in a 10-minute walk. Communication was effective.
ClaudioAirbnb review A house in a wonderful location, breathtaking views, impeccably equipped, perfect hosts, an amazing experience. We’ll definitely be back.
HilaGoogle review We thought it would be a very nice house, but It is more than that, it is a small paradise! One of the most beautiful sceneries I have captured! And thank for the vegetables and eggs. Much appreciated.
