Top Povoacao Hotel Reviews

Pedras do Mar Resort & SPA

10/10 Excellent

"They can do a better job with their spa packages"

Furnas Lake Forest Living

10/10 Excellent

"The lovely room was clean, light and had everything we needed. Such a beautiful setting, and design. We loved it, The pool and spa area was great. It was disappointing that there were no options for a light evening meal at the hotel, only an expensive set menu, especially as it’s quite a drive to town. Also no food or drinks available during the day apart from snacks late afternoon. Coffee and tea was provided in the rooms but no milk available. I was reluctantly given some from the kitchen, but told to buy my own in town."

Hotel Verde Mar & SPA

10/10 Excellent

"Sao Miguel is small enough that you can choose one accommodation centrally located and drive the whole island. Verde Mar and Spa offers ocean views overlooking a beautiful surf beach. Included breakfast is great and in house dining is convenient after a day of touring the island. Ribeira Grande is quaint without the urban cluster of P. Delgado. The 20 minute drive to the north side of the island is certainly worth it."

NINE DOTS Azorean Art Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel stay was perfect. It’s located in the heart of the city, has beautiful rooms, a stunning swimming pool, and helpful staff. Highly recommend."

Octant Ponta Delgada

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel"

Hotel Gaivota Azores

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly and helpful staff, the breakfast was delicious. The rooms were clean, safe and the views from the balcony were spectacular."

Terra Nostra Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We spent three nights at Terra Nostra Garden Hotel, and it was completely worth it. We booked a standard room and requested a higher floor; the professional front desk staff accommodated us with room 138 based on availability. The room had a fantastic view, though the bed was a bit small for two. The hotel was meticulously clean, and having access to the garden and thermal pools after hours was the main highlight. The grounds are magical, filled with tall, unique overgrown trees rather than just flowers. Breakfast was phenomenal, featuring fantastic à la carte eggs and omelets served by wonderful staff. The hotel's location makes walking into Furnas village very easy. Driving is manageable since most narrow streets are one-way. Parking is limited; when the overflow lot was closed one night, we parked on a nearby street—a safe 5-to-10-minute walk with plenty of space. My only caveat is that their weekly full pool cleaning is not clearly documented. While we understood the necessity after seeing how clear the water was the next day with all algae removed, a one-night guest arriving during cleaning would struggle to justify the extra cost. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we would definitely stay again."

Azoris Royal Garden

10/10 Excellent

"All was great I wished the bathroom tubs were cleaner and they separate shampoo to wash hair and more outlets to plug in the bathroom"

Hotel do Mar

8/10 Good

"Everythis was nice after we changed our room because patio door did not lock."
