Facilities Gallery Location Activities

Overview

The Pirate’s Nest is located in Vila Nova on tiny Corvo island in the Azores.

The pirates are actually a very friendly Azorean family whose guesthouse has 3 twin rooms (with TV and kettle) which share 2 bathrooms and a fully equipped kitchen. Breakfast isn’t included but everyone can prepare their own in the kitchen which gives it a feel of a small youth hostel.

You’ll be made to feel right at home at the Pirate’s Nest and nothing is too much trouble for the owners. In October, this becomes a base for keen birdwatchers on the look out for American vagrants.
