Staff were really helpful. When we were allocated a different room to the one we booked they changed it immediately. It was also my 60 birthday while I was there. My husband arranged a meal for me . They went all out to make it special for me and also made me a lovely cake. The location is wonderful with stunning views. An excellent hotel can’t recommend highly enough. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

From the minute we entered the hotel we were impressed. Staff at reception were amazing.we were taken up to our suite by Paulo he explained everything about the suite how stuff worked, told us about the bars in the hotel he was fantastic. If you can treat yourself to a suite as they are simply amazing. There was nothing we could fault about our stay at this hotel. Breakfast is a must as it’s the best I’ve ever had anywhere in the world. We dined in the restaurant at night and again absolutely...

Hi everyone. This hotel is located in the north of the island and easily accessible from the capital, Ponta Delgada in 20 min by car mostly in a motorway. Its right on the coast with a beach a few meters away. There's nothing bad to mention about this hotel. Its clean, friendly and full of the right amenities for a place with this classification. The staff is nothing short of superb! Around the area there are a few restaurants to choose from, and i particularly recommend Alabote. Now, if you...

The apartment was really nice, clean, modern and spacious for 4 of us. The air con was good and kept us cool and we got great WiFi signal. We had a 1 bedroom apartment with reduced mobility, our room did not have a balcony which we definitely missed. But you can probably be specific on your booking if you want one. The pool provided beautiful views and wasn't cold. The larger pool is about a 5 minute walk from the hotel and pretty bare, there are loungers but no options for shade. It looks as...

Really enjoyed our stay, hotel made the holiday, with views of 180 degrees from the terrace overlooking Ponta Delgado and surrounding areas. Margarida, Stacey and all the staff were always helpful and couldn't do enough for the guests, nothing was too much trouble, from arranging car hire to ordering taxi for airport transfer for early morning flight. Breakfasts were excellent with a wide variety of fruits, meats and drinks.

What a fantastic hotel. Situated in the heart of the city making it easy to navigate. Pedro and his staff cannot be more helpful, always with a smile and genuinely interested in making sure you get the most from your stay. The breakfast was wonderful, I cannot tell you much about the selection as on the 1st morning I had the Eggs Benedict, then the second day etc etc, that's how good they were. The pool has a wonderful serene feel to it and we were lucky to have it to ourselves. If you are...
