Our Room was clean and comfortable. It was cleaned every day except of all the glass in the bathroom. I will never understand, why Hotels will install a complete see through bathroom and then let the glass be so dirty, you can't see through it. The Breakfast was good and the staff friendly and fast with cleaning up. Also the Bar and Restaurant are very nice, with really friendly staff, serving good drinks. What bothered us the most, was the Gym. It's so small, that the AC can't handle 3 people in there at the same time. It has only 3 cardio machines, which always have been occupied.

The surroundings are beautiful, the ocean views and serene environment. The access to walking path and natural pools (which we did not discover until our last morning) is an added bonus. Although some of the hotel amenities are a bit off from the overall star rating. For example the bathroom facilities of the pool area are a bit lacking. The bathroom as well in room has an odd sliding door that doesn't completely shut close. The hotel has a strict no check in before 4pm policy I would say this is the worst feature of the hotel, it was really hard for us arriving on a red eye, I saw at least 4-5 groups from our overnight flight sleeping around the property waiting for check-in time and the hotel was unflexible to allow even a 1hr early check-in. If this was known I would actually consider booking a earlier night just to get some good rest upon arrival because it really threw off our first day there. I will however say the breathtaking surroundings make the hotel very special. The breakfast buffet is a welcome addition with nice options. The location is next to some of the best areas of the island with access to many scenic points and good restaurants all within 10-15 minutes away. Parking on site was easy and complimentary. The sunsets on this side of the island are amazing. Overall I would come back and refer this hotel but hoping they would reconsider their check in policy to really make it a more accomodating experience.

This property is beautiful in every way. The rooms are perfect, the ocean view is pretty, the breakfast is lovely with many options for everyone, and the outdoor pool is very nice especially for kids! The staff is helpful. The price is a bit on the high side though so I am not sure I would stay again unless the price was better. However, we stayed in August when it was too hot to use the indoor pool, and prices were probably at their highest.

Beautiful property, many great facilities that open early and close late. The rooms could use a little updating and the breakfast could be better. Quiet location and easy parking, would stay here again.

We originally booked another hotel in Ribeira Grande, but they notified us last moment that there will be loud music festival right outside our window for all of our stay. We had to rebook. Pedras do Mar had just one last room. In the end it was a much better choice than the original. Hotel is very private, quiet, right on the shore, even though there is no proper beach. The views are wonderful, the staff are very friendly and helpful, good breakfast, nice restaurant (although they won’t seat you without reservation), but bar food is equally nice plus you can seat outside. Overall great hotel and great service

We spend four days in the hotel I will tell the personnel was very friendly and attentive, the food was great, the only complaint I had is according with the picture of the Hotel I thought they had a pool with a nice deep but is not the case the pool is maybe four feet deep great for children but not adults, they said is a natural pool in the ocean in the back not even dare is not place there for you to enjoy the ocean is kind of dangerous situation not delightful at all, I like ocean and pool but not the case here, other thing you need to take in consideration before you book this hotel, the location is far far away from everything a taxi will charge you €25 to go anywhere in the city., is not a public transportation closer and they don’t offer shuttle service either so you are in your own other than that it was a good place. Thanks

Overall this was a great place and we have very few complaints. I’ve read the reviews complaining about this not being a 5-star property but it’s all relative. Is it a ritz-Carlton? No. By US standards maybe 4-star. But it’s one of the nicest hotels on Sao Miguel, and has a pretty luxurious feeling overall. The staff was incredibly nice and responsive and helpful. The ocean view was gorgeous. The rooms are nice and modern and comfortable. Water pressure excellent, AC very effective, entire dining and lounge area beautiful, and bar drinks and bar food wonderful. We did not have dinner here since the reviews seemed to indicate it wasn’t worth the money but I would not have been surprised if it turned out to be perfectly nice. Definitely recommend if you want a quiet, very comfortable hotel with some luxury features and delightful staff.

Service at the bar was very very slow! Lots of people in restaurant working, but we constantly had to look for someone to help us? We also had same problem when we came in to eat lunch. Why we never ate dinner at restaurant. We also notice while not being served others had some issues. Other than that desk clerks staff was great!

the property was beautiful and understated, like the island itself. Loved the view of the ocean and the hike along the cliffs. would have expected a better quality massage given the name. the concierge was primarily for renting cars and not much help otherwise.

Hotel scans passports at check in. Demands permission to use information and does not inform about removal of information. Too few beds at pool. No cell phone reception inside. All at a high price.

Serene location to stay, with a nice infinity pool overlooking the ocean. While comfortable and clean - service was subpar. We were only there one night at the end of our trip but had a few situations where service could be meaningfully improved - namely at the bar and restaurant.

Overall very good choice for the Azores. Having the breakfast and dinner restaurant in the hotel was so nice when traveling with kids to make things easy. Outdoor and indoor pools were great, very relaxing vibe. Only thing I would change is the bathroom did not have a fully closing door and had opaque walls so it was hard to navigate at night when kids were asleep in the hotel room. But otherwise would recommend for traveling with kids.

I would love to stay here again, the staff are phenomenal. I had some concerns when I arrived and they accommodated me immediately to ensure I had a pleasant stay. I was unable to enjoy the pool because I was very busy but I did go to the restaurant in the hotel and it was incredible! You will not be disappointed if you stay here, I rented a car and it was easy to get to Sete Cidades, and many other attractions. Thank you for a wonderful visit.

Most of the staff are extremely good and friendly; however, there were lots of time when some staff members were too rigid about unimportant things (like sitting in the fine dining area 7 minutes before it officially opened for the evening). 5-star service is based on always finding a way to accommodate what the guest would like. This is often very affordable for the company but does a lot towards making the customer feeling welcome! Waiting service is often slow especially when initially offering guests drinks after being seated. The fine dining area often seemed to have empty tables but they wouldn't seat guests without a reservation. We love the birds and plants on the property and we would love more trees, flowers and wildlife in the property. Massage service was also great!

The property was great however it is not close to anything unless you have a car. We asked for a map from reception of the area which states in the hotel directory so we could find ATM or local sites, restaurants and bars but they said they do not provide this service and the reception could not point us in the direction of an ATM close by and said there wasn’t any. Luckily for us we found one locally within 6 mins walking. Otherwise all else was great.

The hotel was lovely, perfect views, the design was great. However, overall the hotel did not meet 5 star standards, and we honestly had much better food and service at most of the 4 star hotels we stayed at. The coffee was not good, the breakfast food was meh, the bar food was mediocre. The rooms were good but the shower was definitely not 5star. The staff also had a lot of rules - you could only eat certain foods in certain areas, the concierge couldn't book the spa, the towels for the pool are only at the front desk. Just made the stay feel a bit more clunky than it needed too. Also, a note that we were here in off-season, and the hotel had this eerie truman-show vibe. The hiking trails around the hotel are amazing.

This hotel is perfectly lovely and we enjoyed staying there. The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars was because of the fact that it is not quite up to the standards of other places where we have stayed on Sao Miguel, Azores. For example, they charged us for using the coffee in our room and they require you to exchange towel cards at the front desk to get sauna towels. They also charge for many small things that are a little tiny bit inconvenient and unusual on the island. However, they have the very best breakfast of every place we stayed. They refer to it as continental but it is so much more than that - very impressive.
