Hotel do Canal

8/10 Good
"Nicely located, convenient with underground parking. The breakfast buffet was a nice and complementary pastries and water bottle in the room. Inside of hotel and room, it was a bit outdated, but still comfortable for 2 nights. Awesome shower pressure! Nice view on Pico Island from their terrace. Overall, I’d go back."

While not directly in the city, it's a short drive or a pleasant walk from the main town, making it convenient for both beach days and exploring Horta's amenities. This area is ideal for families looking for easy, direct access to the water and space for children to play, often providing accommodation options with a more relaxed, beach-focused atmosphere.

What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Horta?
The best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Horta is typically during the summer months, specifically July and August. During this period, temperatures comfortably hover between 70°F and 77°F, creating great conditions for lounging on Porto Pim Beach or exploring the charming marina.

Families often gravitate towards these months due to school holidays, making it an ideal time for children to enjoy the calm waters and discover the marine life at the Horta Aquarium. With the peak season demand, hotel availability for premium beachfront properties can be limited, and rates tend to be at their highest, so securing your reservation well in advance is highly recommended.

For those seeking a more tranquil yet equally delightful experience, late June presents a fantastic alternative. The weather remains wonderfully warm, often in the mid-60s to low 70s, and you might find it easier to secure a coveted ocean-view room.
Is it cheaper to book a Horta beach hotel and flights as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline—this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Horta for you.
