"The location is great
The staff is very accomodating to reguest and offer help in a passionate way. I was traveling alone and they helped plan my days by giving me places to visit and food options while there
My luggage didn’t arrive for 3 days and they told me where to go for clothing as well as called the airlines for updates. The restaurant had no problems with me desiring to eat in my room instead of the establishment. Will stay there again on return

"A very comfortable and practical place to stay. The full kitchen was a great asset for us. The cliffs right outside the door are amazingly beautiful. It’s wonderful to be able to stroll along the cliffs at sunset."

"Would recommend to all travellers! The receptionists (including Host- the cat) are extremely friendly, helpful and go above and beyond to ensure your stay is comfortable. The breakfast exceeded our expectations and you can’t beat the location. Beds are very comfortable and you have all the necessary utensils to cook your own meal in the room if you want. Would absolutely stay here again! "

"We stayed in this beautiful property for a little over a week. It was very quiet, comfortable, and convenient for our family of five. The host Claudia was very nice and kind and responded to all of our questions very quickly. Highly recommended!"

"Clean, kitchen had everything that was needed. Sea views. Staff so helpful, above and beyond what was expected. Use of hot tub, swimming pool, sauna, turkish steam room and gym. Even a playroom for kids.
Only issue was that the laundry was really expensive. A washing machine available to guests would have been useful even with a charge."

"My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. I appreciated being able to do my laundry easily with the machine in the garage and the estendal in the closet.
It was very close to universidade do Açores, which we needed. But also close to other more tourist things like the seaside and the beautiful church.
Really the only thing I didn’t like is the bathroom doesn’t have a fan for ventilation, but very small since you’re not in a bathroom for very long anyways."

"This hotel is a hidden gem. It’s about four minutes from the airport and very quiet. The staff were incredibly kind. The villa was spotless, and we slept like a dream. Breakfast was delivered to the villa and it was very good. We also went to see the horses, it was fun. "

"Perfect unique accommodation right on the ocean. Cleaned and restocked daily to a high standard. Included daily breakfast delivery was delicious. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Communication with the Houseboat Company was fantastic from time of booking throughout until after check-out. I would highly recommend this accommodation & will definitely be staying with them again in any of the countries they are located."

"Great location central to driving anywhere on the island. Extremely helpful desk staff. Very clean, good linens and nice pools. They could use hooks in the rooms for hanging damp and wet items after swims and hikes. They could separate smokers from non smokers as it was impossible to enjoy time on our balcony with ocean view most of the time when people next door were always out there smoking on theirs. Restaurant was ok. Thank you to the front desk staff for recommendations and taxi booking."
"We booked a double room but were allocated a very small room with one of the smallest beds I’ve encountered in a hotel (see photo attached). The room did not appear to match the marketing photos, so it felt misleading to book one type of room and be given something quite different. After a poor night’s sleep, we complained and were moved to a larger room, which was much closer to what we had expected when booking.
We also found the hotel restaurant disappointing, both at breakfast and dinner. However, we did enjoy the drinks and food in the bar area.
The gym was another disappointment. It had only a couple of treadmills, dumbbells up to 10kg, and no bench to use them with, so it was very limited for a hotel at this price point.
Overall, we did not feel the stay offered good value for money. While after-hours access to the gardens is a nice benefit, I would have preferred to stay elsewhere and visit the gardens during the day instead."
"We stayed one night in May 2026. We were welcomed warmly even though we arrived late at night due to a much delayed flight from Ponta Delgada. They upgraded us to a suite, which we were grateful for, after a long day of flying, and extended layovers in 4 airports, and getting lost while trying to find the hotel in the dark. The room was clean, and we enjoyed a peaceful night's rest and a standard complimentary breakfast the next morning."
"This was a nice hotel with an interesting history. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Unfortunately we were here in the transition from their winter to summer season & it was unusually warm weather. The room was stifling as the a/c couldn’t be turned on. They did try to help us but to no avail. We did appreciate the early check-in and the great breakfast."
"We had a really good stay at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was surprisingly large with nice views. Our room lacked a coffee station, but the kitchen staff were kind enough to prepare a full coffee carafe to bring to our room in the morning. The spa and pool were also very nice. We’ll look forward to staying here again at our next stay in Ponta Delgada."
"Our experience at this hotel was outstanding, thanks to the staff's kindness, professionalism, and dedication to excellence. Upon arrival, we were treated to a beautifully presented room with rose petals, fine wine, and exquisite desserts, setting the tone for an unforgettable stay. The hotel's restaurant offered exceptional service and exceptional food, further enhancing our already impressive experience. Thank you for making our anniversary so special ❤️"
