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.
Situated in Velas in the São Jorge Island region, Velasmar II features accommodation with free WiFi.

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!

The staff was very friendly and happy help whenever needed. The daily housekeeping was done very nicely.
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!!
The apartment was the perfect size for one or two people, comfortable bed with nice shower, kitchenette and shared patio. Nicely located on a hill just above Velas, with beautiful views of Costa Sudoeste, Casa Dos Lagos provided a serene experience. Will stay there again! The manager was very kind and checked in to see if all was well after a storm. She was very informative on where to go and where to eat, and was flexible on check out given the late departure of the ferry. Very accommodating!
Fabulous location, with bats swooping over the pool, knock out views in a green paradise. We overlooked 2 cliffs and saw amazing sunsets. Maria was lovely and made the stay welcoming and homely. Staff cleaned and changed sheets/ bedding every day. 5 mins walk from Velas. On the walk to Velas, you could see the volcano of pico rising out of the clouds. Honesty, I would have paid double.Breakfast was a feast!
All the photos I have added are from the property views or walking into velas.
This property has a great location with an amazing view, host is super nice and helpful, the bungalow is basic but very comfortable and kitchen is equipped with everything you might need. Coffee capsules were a great bonus in the morning :)
Beach is very close to the property. You might need a car/taxi if you'd like to hike the mountain trails.
Wi-fi is available as well.
Good value for money, recommend!
The garden with the swimmingpool couldn't be situated better. The view from the balcony in the room was spectacular as well.
The walking distance to the restaurants in town is only five minutes (the hotel has none).
Breakfast was good. Staff is friendly.
You can get towels for the pool at the reception.
The location is perfect. The room was renovated and very clean. The owners are very nice people, helpful. We had certain issues with our vacation planing and they actively found a way how to ease our inconvenience for our satisfaction. The family runs the hotel for more than 40 years.
The room was a short walk to anything in town. There’s also cafe with one of the better menu offerings in town right next to the hotel. My favourite amenity was the room’s large balcony with a great view of Pico. The staff is friendly and helpful. I asked lots of questions.
The overall accomodations were excellent, spectacular wide view and landscape to Velas village and to Pico, very near Velas, the house was very clean, the kitchen fully equipped as well as the bathroom. The host was very friendely and always available for any kind support.
It's small (I think it was a house once) but within an excellent courtyard. Very clean and the owner is very personable. It's located near the center of Velas near a number of restaurants and the town center and it's close to the water. Has a nice continental breakfast.
The property is located on the hill of Velas city with an amazing view on Pico mountain and the sea. Nice walking distance from the city center. Apartment is well equipped, spacious and clean. It is perfect! The owner replies to messages fast and is very helpful.
The staff were extraordinary, helpful and extremely pleasurable to visit with. The food was excellent and just a short stroll from our room. PS the local cats were very sweet outside our room.
Hotel staff was highlight of our trip so far!!
Facilities are very clean. Host is very friendly. We had no problem checking in. Host was very accommodating. Met us at 2:00am to give us the keys! Public swimming spot right behind the hotel is beautiful!
Everything about this place is wonderful. It sits on a hill above the vila of Velas with beautiful views of Pico. Gisela is also a wonderful hostess, who makes sure you’re happy and have everything you need!
The position is ok, ten minute drive from the Velas. The only worker/janitor is very kind and does he's best to make you confortable although it looks like he doesn't have any hospitality background.
Julia was very welcoming and always happy to help with anything. The house was super clean and the kitchen very well equiped. The location is good as Velas is small and everything is close.
The apartment is conveniently located near the coast in Velas, a few minutes away from a natural swimming pool with a beautiful view to Pico.
The host is very friendly and helpful.
Host was very friendly, position is right in the center of Velas and close to free parking places. The suite is big and has everything one might want. Daily cleaning.
