Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers fairly large rooms with views of the ocean, delicious food options, and poolside massages. However, the glassed-in bathroom lacks complete privacy. The service provided was really helpful with touristic activities assistance, and the staff, though young, was nice and friendly. The location on the North side of the island is excellent for day trips, but the dining experience could be improved with better variety. Overall, a nice stay with some room for enhancement.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with spacious rooms that were soundproofed and had extremely comfortable beds. The location couldn't be better, central to many attractions on the island and offering stunning ocean views from the bar and restaurant. The breakfast overlooking the ocean was a great way to start the day, and the facilities were modern and comfortable. The only drawback was a relaxed attitude towards cleanliness and construction dust around the hotel.
The hotel offers a simple yet elegant stay with extremely comfortable beds, clean rooms, and a great view of the sea. The friendly service makes up for slightly slow restocking during meal times. The central location is perfect for exploring Sao Miguel, although the dining options could be improved.
The hotel offers a lovely view and amazing shower experience with stylish and spacious rooms, just above the buzzing restaurant area. While not quite reaching a 5-star finish, it's still an excellent stay.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were comfy, roomy, and stylish, just a short walk away from the festival area. The wellness facilities were fantastic, and the breakfast was excellent. The service was incredible, with efficient staff, and the location was perfect for exploring the island and surfing. The dining experience was awesome, although it could use some improvements in the fruit and bread selection.
The hotel offers amazing rooms with the possibility of wellness and an excellent breakfast. The rooms are large with a beautiful view, which is very nice. However, the sound insulation from outside and the hallway is poor.
The hotel offers very spacious and well-maintained rooms, just above the restaurant area. While they could benefit from a little refreshment and maintenance, being at the very far end of the building made it a long walk.
The hotel offers a lovely view and amazing view, but finishes not quite 5 star. The rooms were great, however, the weird glassed-in bathroom affects privacy. The sound insulation from outside and the hallway wasn't the best, and the location at the very far end of the building made it a very long walk.
