Povoacao Vacations from $884

Amazing place, very clean and super friendly. Definitely will be going back. They also offer car rental service.

The pool is not heated and even the kids had difficulty swimming at the end of June. Beach is nice to walk on. Did not go in the water. Jellyfish on the beach. The food is ok, not many options for kids and strong on fish (with lots of bones still in). Water is not included with dinner, so a minimum of 5 euros for a bottle. Hotel is a bit dated. Music in the hallways on speakers start at 7am. The grounds are nice and well maintained. The check in staff was nice and the kids enjoyed the flavored water at the desk. Parking was easy and free. Good location for activities nearby.

The Hotel Talisman was a very good choice for my first night in Sao Miguel having taken a taxi from the airport. It is close to the centre of town and less than 5 minutes from where I picked up my hire car the next day. I didn't eat there that night as they only had a buffet for dinner. However breakfast was very good with a great deal of choice. The hotel is in a very old building with a quirky room layout but that only added to the charm of the place. I understand they have paid parking available but it wouldn't be my choice to stay with a car as the surrounding streets are very narrow.

L’hébergement est bien située et le lieu est magnifique dans les jardins. Par contre dans les détails de la réservation il était mentionné qu’on avait accès à une piscine et 5 bains à remous. Ce qui n’était pas le cas. Aucune piscine sur le site mais il y avait un spa. L’hébergement était bien mais sentait l’humidité. Malgré tout nous avons passé un bon séjour mais au départ nous voulions un hébergement avec piscine. L’arrivée c’est bien passé mais soyez au courant qu’il y a une longue distance à pied dans les roches pour se rendre avec les valises jusqu’à la maison.
