Loved it
3.0 / 5.0
Very outdated for the nightly price. Only one elevator was put in use maybe trying to save on electricity. Overpriced beverages and be prepared to pay €4.5 for a small bottle of water or Coca Cola. Also, very outdated air conditioning system. Nights were very hot in the room although the AC was running for 24 hours nonstop.
3.0 / 5.0
We were initially given an accessible room without a decent view - we asked to be moved to a sea view room and had to pay extra for a different room type. However the room was good when we moved. Food was not good at all - all buffet service but not replenished regularly and not of good quality- this applied to both breakfast and dinner.
1.0 / 5.0
The hotel is in real a good 3 star beach hotel NOT 4 star. UNFORTUNATELY the price is like a luxury 5 star hotel.
The staff is great ❗ but the policy of the management is to collect money without giving the value to the customers...
For a junior suite we paid 534 per night and we had in the room just towels and shampoo. There is not any coffee mashine or a device to warm water, there are not slipers or bathrobe.
Breakfast and dinner are OK but nothing to make you feel they appreciate you as a customer.
I wouldn't be back with these money perhaps in maximum 180 euros.

included breakfast was a very good buffet with lot of different options but these options were the same very day.

The hotel is off by itself - need to drive to get anywhere. The shoreline, nature are beautiful. There is a beach a few minutes walk away as well as pools; we didn't swim since it was a little chilly in late June.
Parking can get a little tight, so cars are lining every road on the property - make sure you are comfortable parking in tight spaces.

Beautiful. Right in the beach. Away from the main city. A bit out dated but the rooms are big and the staff was wonderful!
3.0 / 5.0
Hotel is on a gorgeous piece of property overlooking the ocean with easy walking access to beach with lifeguards and a small restaurant. Hotel rooms are large. However, hotel itself is very dated and is in need of updating (everything from furniture in lobby to fixtures in rooms to gym). Not a 4 star hotel as described.

Staff were very friendly and attentive. Property location was beautiful. Rooms were very large as described. Beach and pool were well maintained, beautiful.

Stayed 5 nights at property. Beautiful beach and sunsets! Pool and outside areas are very well kept. Hotel looks just like the pictures! Staff is extremely friendly and polite. The only area the hotel didn’t meet my expectations was in the food. Breakfast is okay… same exact breakfast every day. A couple of days fruit tasted funny… I dinned once at hotel, did not enjoyed the buffet. On the bright side, great restaurants within 20 to 25 minutes driving distance. Overall, I enjoyed my stayed. As I said, food wasn’t great, but everything else and everyone in the hotel were excellent!

The Beach was amazing!
2.5 / 5.0
This hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. It was the type of hotel experience one wants on vacation. When you see the pictures of this place on the App/website a daydream about your upcoming vacation, the reality is way beyond what you can imagine. The grounds are well kept, the view of the ocean and the surrounding landscape are amazing. It is a great sanctuary and base camp for adventures on the island. 20 minutes from Ponta Delgada, 25 minutes from Furnas, 30 minutes from Ribeira Grande, and roughly 60 minutes from Sete Cidades. Breakfast was great, they had everything. Spa, gym, rentals, and a nice cocktail bar. I can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful sunsets!!!

This is the one with right price and good services. Near the ocean, not close to the city area. Highly recommended!
5.0 / 5.0
This is an excellent hotel. We were upgraded to a junior suite which was roomy and well laid out. The bathroom was the best hotel bathroom I've seen in decades -- enough counter space, 2 sinks, things arranged in sensible ways (I'm convinced that most hotel bathroom designers have never stayed in a hotel!).
The breakfast buffet is excellent with something for everyone (except no chocolate sprinkes for the Dutch). Make sure your rate includes breakfast.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
The towel system means availability of towels for the beach or the hot pools.
The grounds are pleasant -- we saw the uniquely Azorean daylight bat flying out near the tennis court. The beach is very close.
As others have commented, the location is isolated and you will need a car, but it is quite central on the island.

It was an amazing stay! We had a nice corner room 317, the view was breath taking. I would say it was the best one so far. The food in the restaurant was delicious and service by everyone in the hotel was impeccable. We will definitely be back next year!!

2.0 / 5.0
This is a very nice place to stay - huge rooms, beautiful views of a black sand beach and turquoise water - we fell asleep to the sound of the waves crashing every night. The staff are super friendly and helpful!!
Breakfast was included and there was always something one could find to eat. The coffee seems to contain chocolate - not great, but we took it as a peculiarity and went with it. We never ate lunch or dinner there. Dinner was always a buffet style and reviews hadn’t been great. We like to have vinho with dinner thus don’t want to drive - the beach bar a short walk away served us well - basic food and drink, but very affordable and hit the spot for a couple of nights. Very good restaurants are 5-10 minutes drive away (Casa do Abel is highly recommended with a reservation!)
The pool area is lovely and has its own bar too. The grounds were immaculate. I found this hotel to be very peaceful.
This hotel is a beach resort which harkens back to the past. I loved the feel, and would most definitely go back myself, however, if you happen to be someone with mold/dust allergies, I’d be hesitant to stay as there is carpet everywhere. Carpet that has been there awhile…replacing this would be a huge step forward for the hotel.
The beach was one of the most beautiful we saw in the azores…big waves, excellent surfing, but lots of people going into the very warm water. We found this hotel a great spot from which to visit the island.

I thought the property was beautifully situated with a beautiful view of the ocean and hillsides. The entire hotel is nicely appointed. We loved our room and the view from the balcony. The staff were delightful though I thought that the cooking facilities at breakfast were not adequate. They need a proper cooking service for omelettes etc and more than one cook!

3.0 / 5.0
The outdated hotel with the non existent service. All staff is nice- but 0 help/ in my case. Nice big rooms with amazing view but rurally outdated- dirty carpets. Scratched walls. No toiletries except of body wash. The pool should bd heated- too cold even at the end of June. Breakfast buffet is ok but the sand for 7 days. Pool bar is good- when there is anybody there to take ur order. The area is very convenient if h have a car
