Velasmar, hotel in Velas

Set in Velas, Velasmar provides accommodation with a seating area, a flat-screen TV and a kitchen. Each unit features an oven, microwave, a coffee machine, as well as a toaster.

The location was really good, next to a natural pool. There are restaurants and a grocery shop near by. It has a really great view on Pico mountain. There are plenty of parking space in front of the building. The check in went smoothly, and the owner was able to arrange a morning check in for us, so it's worth asking, but it based on availability and other guests leaving time.

The host was very welcoming and gave us a lot of useful tips for our trip. The location and view were stunning looking straight at Pico mountain! It was great to seat outside at the balcony and enjoy the view with a glass of wine and some cheese! We were also offered bread, milk and a homemade banana jam for breakfast which was perfect. We would stay here again if we return to Sao Jorge!

    Amazing place. Completely stocked small supermarket.

    Amazing place. Completely stocked small supermarket. Chinese store had an amazing selection of clothes, electronics, etc. Restaurants were wonderful. Everyone we meet was helpful and friendly. Go to the lagoon on the otherside of the island - heavenly. Better hydranga lined roads and fields than Sao Miguel. Call Ramos for taxi service - he is my cousin.

    Piscina Natural Simao Dias, the most beautiful natural pool in the Azores. I would recommend it to others. I traveled around the island on a rented scooter. But I thought it was safer to use a car.

    Velas is a lovely little town on Sao Jorge.

    Velas is a lovely little town on Sao Jorge. It isn't large but has everything you need for a week on tge island. There are several natural swimming pools with free umbrellas and shower/changing facilities (the fact they're free unlike so many places is really good). The restaurants we ate in were really good serving local produce with good value for money. The rest of the island has the spectacular scenery and Velas is a good place to base yourself to see it.

    The hospitality of this village is to die for.

    The hospitality of this village is to die for. Great food, pure hearted people, I recommend having a meal at Cervejaria S. Jorge with the great Chef Luísa Fernandes, take a boat tour and walk from Serra do Topo to the Fajãs. Try the local cheese and pair it with a nice glass wine. It's a healing place, too beautiful to describe. Book a longer stay, it's really worth the time

    Velas is just a place to stay to have a base to explore the nature on the island. Unfortunately we had rain and fog most of the time and got to see very little. There is an excellent restaurant in the next town, Rosais. It is called O Branqinho and has a fabulous lunch for only about 8 euros.

    This place was an apartment above a cake shop!!

    This place was an apartment above a cake shop!! Breakfast was in the shop and it was open long hours for dinks etc. Very modern and well appointed but very noisy on two nights but this was only because it was festa time.and the stage was right next door in the market I bought some earplugs and after that it was FINE!!

    Amazing location, one of the best views I've ever had in any hotel. You could just chill for a few days on the terrace, not doing anything else, and it would be good enough :) Add to this very nice and helpful owner, comfortable bungalow, good location to explore the island (you should definitely do it, no matter how cool is the view from the terrace, São Jorge is a beautiful island worth exploring) and you have fantastic stay. Very recommended

    Super clean, extremely comfortable bed and really friendly and responsive hosts. The place also has a phenomenal view of the cliffs nearby in Velas, as well as Mount Pico. We only stayed one night but it was a great spot and we wished we had more time. The garden was cool and overall had a very laid back vibe. We also appreciated the laundry onsite. The host also allowed us to check in early which was really helpful.

    The breakfast was perfect, the location with the views amazing and all the areas to sit and relax. We arrived late in the evening and they had left us a small plate of cheese, bread and a chilled carafe of Maria's husbands homemade tangerine liqueur, quite tasty! We did not have a car and walking into Velas in the evening for dinner and back was quite pleasant.

    The breakfast was terrific! The owner, Leticia, her son, and Catherina were very accommodating and kind. The hotel is located in a small village near Velas. You will need a car to move around the island. However, the views from the hotel are unique! Very peaceful place. The cabins/ apartments are very spacious, comfortable, and clean!

    This was a decent hotel. My room was very small but the bathroom was great. Miguel, one of the owners, was very attentive and kind. The room was cleaned every day and the breakfast was good. The location was the best part of it, very central, close to lots of restaurants, a good supermarket and the main square.
