A lovely place not accessible by car, you are at the end of the world. Very nice renovated room. Super nice staff with good cooking skills Very good breakfast to start a hiking day :)
FranceAmazing location and staff. Ideal for a break in the nature.
PortugalThe Surfcamp blends in perfectly in this setting, and offers simple (yet complete) rooms in a traditional styled house in the nicest part of the fajã. Meals are served in a large table, where you get to trade experiences with other guests. The food was nice, but above all the relaxed atmosphere is a major part of making your stay a great « disconnect » moment.
PortugalThe people, animals, location and the guest house are exceptional. They serve very tasty food in the morning, at lunch and at dinner. You get a pick up with a quad. Expect to pay 20 euros one way. They have electricity since last november.
NetherlandsThe whole place is fantastic. Incredible location off the grid, great hospitality and a beautiful house and terrace. You can either bring food and cook in the well equipped kitchen or order breakfast/ lunch/dinner the previous day. Meals are refined and healthy, very tasty and made with love. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. Would definitely like to visit caldera guesthouse again.
AustriaWhen I travel, I always look for unique places. What can I say? From now, it is number one on my list. AMAZING! I can write about delicous food, comfortable bed, pretty details of house and great view...but is not enough. You have to go there and feel it.
PolandThe accomodation is located at the famous Faja da Caldeira de Santo Cristo and it’s amazing to spend some time there. This Faja can only be accessed by hiking or quad and in my opinion is the most beautiful place in Sao Jorge. We received a very warm welcome and immediately felt like home. The room was super clean and cozy and our host cooked a delicious dinner for us. I wish we would have spend more time there and can highly recommend this place.

Caminhando pelas encostas verdes encontra-se o sítio onde a Natureza e o Homem entram em equilíbrio. O segredo mais bem guardado dos Açores! A Caldeira Guesthouse & Surfcamp nasceu com o objetivo da convivência interpessoal aliada ao surf e à natureza. Por este motivo a casa tem um espaço amplo com camas individuais, uma mezzanine, sofá, salamandra, biblioteca, casa de banho, acesso direto à cozinha e à rua. Por outro lado, mais reservado e confortável, 3 quartos com casa de banho privada e acesso à rua. A cozinha interior e exterior são comuns a todos os hóspedes e encontram-se equipadas. A Fajã já é fornecida por energia elétrica O Surfcamp aluga também material para surf, bodyboard, paddle, snorkeling, caça submarina e pesca. Realizamos algumas atividades turísticas, como: aulas de surf, trilhos guiados, voltas à ilha, entre outros. A força de vontade aliada à boa energia que se vive aqui faz desta casa um ninho acolhedor para todos os que aqui passam 7
surf
A Fajã tem poucas casas particulares e ainda menos habitantes permanentes. Por isso vive-se um espírito familiar e companheirismo com a vizinhança.
