Lusitano Garden Villas

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t recommend this place enough. It is a stunning property with thoughtful design, services and amenities. After months of researching different properties we went with Lusitano and every day of our trip we spoke about how glad we were that we did. Located parallel to the highway and a short drive into the heart of the city (less than 10 mins) and a 5 minute drive to a large mall with a food court and grocery store, you can get anywhere you need to quickly while also feeling like you’re in a secluded oasis upon your return to the property. The staff at this place are incredible. Kind, personable and professional. They helped us countless times- sending me Google Maps directions to specific places, making reservations on my behalf when I was facing a language barrier, speaking to my Uber driver who got lost delivering groceries, offering their available beach towels when we mentioned we were headed to the beach that afternoon, the list goes on and on. We were travelling as a large group with two rambunctious toddlers and we were never made to feel anything but welcome. The property is gorgeous with “spa vibes”, and waking up to horses was an added bonus. The included breakfast covered basic offerings and was always fresh and welcome. Beautiful modern rooms with large closets, large bathrooms. kitchenette that had a glass stove burner, microwave, fridge and basics such as plates, cutlery etc. The list goes on and on. Just book it. You won’t regret it."

Grand Hotel Açores Atlântico

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Quiet room even though it faced out over a main street. Comfortable bed. Good breakfast and food at attached bar. Has a smallish but warm indoor pool with 2 saunas (with and without steam)."

VIP Executive Azores Hotel

8/10 Good

"L'endroit est bien situé."

Hotel Verde Mar & SPA

8/10 Good

"Better manicuring of the property surrounding primarily the area between the hotel and beach would have made a significant difference. And add better air conditioning in dining area."

Hotel Talisman

8/10 Good

"Hotel is located almost right in the center of the city. Difficult to find initially as it is located on a "side street" for pedestrians but available for service vehicles and private cars for pick-up etc. Parking is on the street near the hotel about a 5 min. walk. Public parking is inexpensive (less than 1 Euro/hour) but only applicable from 08:00 to 19:00 . No limit on space occupation. Shopping and other restaurants are close by as is the harbor and other attractions. They have a nice , decent sized rooftop pool, which is clean and accessible. The breakfast which is included is exceptional both in its choices and quality with plenty of seating. It is air conditioned. Great spot and would definitely choose again. Elizabeth and Philip Nace."

Octant Ponta Delgada

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice accommodations, staff was great, nice spa."

Vila Gale Collection S. Miguel Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast, fantastic! Location, cleanliness, friendliness and architectural elements were fantastic! Not a huge mammoth hotel, but very spacious and luxurious feeling. Great walkabout and food variety and quality nearby. Made our vacation next level!"

Hotel Ponta Delgada

10/10 Excellent

"I Love this Hotel only thing I miss is not having at least a small refrigerator that’s all"

Sao Miguel Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"The rooms were clean and front desk staff were helpful. My biggest complaint is breakfast. It didn't matter what time you got down there, there was never a clean table, replenishing food was very slow and only small amounts were brought out at a time. I think my biggest issue was that I would find hair (that was the same color) from the young girls working on some of the tops of where things like plates of cheese were. Although the young girls had their hair tied back they would be swinging their hair around. They should have hair nets on. Although, it seemed like there was quite a bit of staff around...there was a lot of chit chatting with guests and amongst each other."
