The location was great! Quiet area and close to the beach. Great on-site restaurant and breakfast every morning. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming. The rooms were comfortable with air conditioning. There was a balcony with great views of the coast. It was close to a food market that had a bunch of little options for easy dining as well as a grocery store near by to get snacks and such for the beach. Truly a wonderful property! I would recommend to anyone to stay here

The space itself was a beautiful studio with huge windows that opened to a little garden. It had a small kitchenette that was fully equipped for meal prep. The host was incredibly kind and had some home made jam and treats for us when we arrived. We had the breakfast in the morning which was wonderful. It consisted of fruits, pancakes, eggs, cheese, yogurts, pastries and more. The host was very kind, she answered all of our questions, made wonderful suggestions for restaurants and gave us some history of the location and the grounds. The studio itself was very clean, stylish, and quiet. I would recommend this establishment for anyone wanting stay on this side of the Sao Miguel.

This property is very nice. The gardens are beautiful and the property manager was phenomenal ! Our unit was very clean and easy to acclimate to. There wasn't a welcome basket: only a bottle of wine. HOWEVER, the breakfast basket delivered each morning was more than enough and provided choices for snacks throughout the day. Bed was very comfortable. The property would be awesome for families !

It was a wonderful and unforgettable adventure. Information on how to access the house was provided ahead of time, which made our arrival very comfortable. The accommodations were exactly as depicted in the photographs and brought us a lot of positive emotions. We had the opportunity to spend time with friends in the spacious kitchen and on the terraces with fantastic views.
The staff was very attentive and sincere. We had a delicious breakfast at the Resort daily. The beach was an integral part of a relaxing stay. Once you become accustomed to a round-about, you'll be fine driving. The city of Ribeira Grande is very walkable too.

Lots of hiking around, great beaches, nice local restaurants, bars and coffee shops. Relatively good public transport to get around. Often cheaper to take taxi to get around than renting a car. In total we spent 4 weeks on the Azores and had a rental car for 4 days, this was one too much. Taxi is great for getting almost everywhere. Public transport is somehow good.

The town has some very interesting historical buildings, but it seems the economic turndown took a lot from its better days. Walking there at night was rather a Lovecraftian experience. It's safe, but it's just that there's not much to do there. But it's a small island and the town is right in its middle and it was very handy for the day trips visiting its different parts.

Ribeira Grande is a fantastic place to stay if you're...
Ribeira Grande is a fantastic place to stay if you're visiting São Miguel. It is located more central than Ponta Delgada while being only a 15 minute car ride away from the airport, so it's the perfect place from which to explore the entire island. An added bonus is that it's right next to the best beaches in São Miguel: most beaches on the island are rocky, the only true sandy beaches are next to Ribeira Grande. We went surfing twice at Santa Bárbara beach, only 10 minutes away from where we stayed in Ribeira Grande. The city itself is fairly small but quaint and has everything you need, including a pretty large supermarket (Continente), some cafes and restaurants, stores, even a laundromat. The only downside is that for vegans/vegetarians it's pretty hard to eat out, but that is true for almost all of the island except a few places in Ponta Delgada.
The host was extremely kind and welcoming, showed me to the room, and walked me through the premises (i.e., the shared kitchen/living room, the location for breakfast). The breakfast was standard with some savory and typical breakfast granola and toast options. The room was delightful, spacious, clean, and the terrace gave a nice glimpse of the beach from the nearby fields. Parking was easy, as there's plenty of street parking right outside of the rooms.
Great view onto beach and sea.
Beautiful design of hotel.
Breakfast was very tasty but the menu didn't change. It was good for a short stay but would be too repetitive for a longer stay.
The hotel organised some great activities for us, including canyoning and whale watching although this took some communication as the experiences email address given on the hotel website is no longer in use (although still shown on the website).
Everything is amazing about Quinta do Passo: central location on the island with easy in and out, spacious and clean, beautiful surroundings with pool, outdoor shower and plenty of outdoor seating, villas are fully stocked for all your needs and many markets, cafes, and restaurants within 5 min of walking, plenty of towels for bath and pool/ beaches/ thermal trips… I could literally go on and on.
Beautiful location overlooking the sea/beach. Incredibly clean and well appointed with plenty of towels, kitchen accessories, laundry, TV, and outside furniture. Central to all major Sao Miguel sights via car. Great seafood restaurant in walking distance from the house. We had a very relaxing and memorable stay here!
We enjoyed our stay in the villa. The location is perfect in Ribeira Grande, just 10 mins walk to the local beach and pools and 20 mins walk to Continente supermarket. Thanks to Daniel for welcoming us and for morning bread. That’s hands down, the top notch facility in San Miguel to relax and enjoy surroundings.
We absolutely loved this property. It was easy walking to the beach, pool, restaurants etc.
The kitchen had everything we needed to cook in and it was a bonus having a washing machine. We loved that they had a basket of local goodies filled with local products. We loved the back patio too.
Graca was a wonderful host. It is a modern, fully equipped house. Nice location in a calm neighbourhood in Ribeira Grande. New large kitchen with everything that you need. The host is always ready to help with all the requests.
it is a really good place the place itself is top notch and the view over Ribeira Grande is amazing and host Silvano is so welcoming and always available to help and also give you travel tips based on your preferences.
This is the nicest hotel we ever stayed at! The beach, pool, and food were beautiful! Our 11 month old was spoiled by all the staff. We were pleasantly surprised they even had a baby bath tub for us to use.
Amazing hosts and lovely B&B atmosphere. They were welcoming, accommodating, and offered helpful insight into our different travel plans. We would highly recommend this location as a base to explore Azores!
The breakfast buffet was fantastic. The front desk staff were very helpful with answering questions, and booking dinner reservations. Enjoyed being able to purchase a bottle of wine at the hotel
Hotel Verde Mar & SPA is an excellent place. It offers an amazing location with sea-view rooms, beautiful interior decor, and a dedicated and friendly staff. The breakfasts are truly delightful.
Nice beds and good simple breakfast
Because we like to walk to the worth to see city center of Ribeira Grande....you can walk alongside the beach / torndown - and nice new houses
We appreciate nice bathroom with double shower and bidet. The flat is situated near historical center of city Ribeira Grande. Beautiful balcony with seaview.
This hostel was exceptionally clean and the host was very friendly and welcoming! I enjoyed my stay in this well-located and spacious hotel. Recommended!
