Very kind people, helpful and polite. Location clean and comfortable. Very nice garden with trees, plants, nice decorations, lounge directly at the sea (quite and so agreable). Very good restaurant nice service. Vegetarians (we are) : the people are ready to cook special meals for you, don't hesitate to ask for.

Just a short review which comes from the bottom of my heart, along with an immense "thank you" to all those nice and smiling, as well as extremely helpful staff members of this very special hotel in a spectacular location! The food they serve you for sure is the best that you can get on Pico!

A great place to stay. Accomodation is in bright and well equipped chalets situated in the most beautiful gardens (this may prove a problem to those with severe mobility problems). We really enjoyed the gardens, with the associated bird and bat life, and the sun deck where we sat and watched the Atlantic Ocean below us. The staff were helpful,... More

We were fortunate enough to spend a week here in October. I must say that the team here went out of their way to make sure that we had a pleasant time on the island. The lodge is nice, but I would caution American tourists that its a bit different in terms of room accommodations/quality than what you may be... More

We have been on Pico island for 3 nights and coose the hotel because of the excelent reviews. It was a nice place with a very friendly staff. The swimming bay is a unique place. Food was great and rooms nice. Nevertheless some refurbishment would make the perfect place out of Aleia do Fonte.

Aldeia da Fonte was a surprise for us... a relax and quiet place near Lajes do Pico. The garden is beautiful and the sea lounge is probably one of the best places I know to read a book. The terrace were the meals are served is also very nice. The room where we stayed (ground floor) was very big but... More

Let me first say that if you are the resort type who likes to drink by the pool and watch a big screen TV then Aldeia da Fonte is not for you, nor is the island of Pico. If however, you are looking for an absolutely charming boutique-like inn with the most exquisite piscine naturelle in an unspoiled setting that... More

I spent three nights on Pico Island at Aldeia da Fonte and enjoyed it very much. The problem with Pico Island is that there is really no central place to spend your time. I was tempted to stay in Madalena - but as it turned out, you can see the whole town of Madalena in less than one day. Aldeia... More
