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.

The house is well equipped, perfectly located close to the beach, and nicely decorated. The common areas (kitchen and living room) were the ones were we spent most of the time. The house has also an external patio where you can have dinner if the weather permits. You also have a small terrace overlooking the beach. The property is located in a very small village with one restaurant and one bar. If you need groceries, you have to go a bit further away by car. The kitchen is extremely equipped. It allowed us to cook and bake at home when needed. The house was in perfect conditions when we arrived. Despite not having met the hosts, we were in contact with them for several things. They always replied promptly. We highly recommend it.

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 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.

Ribeira Grande is a great starting point for trips all around the island. It is located almost in the middle of island so everything is pretty nearby. On the other side it is relatively small city so it is not overcrowded. 15-20 minutes from airport.
The place was cozy and the host was gracious even though we forgot to ask for an extra bed earlier. The location was great being almost on the beach and lots of free parking around. We likes staying in this town riberia grande more so than ponte degada if I had to be honest. It had a bigger variety of food and felt more down to earth. It's right in the middle of many scenic viewpoints as well. The shower had nice water pressure and was quite delightful after some of our hikes. All in all, very happy to have stopped by here.
The property was beautiful and right outside of the main town of Ribeira Grande. We were in easy walking or driving distance of so many things to do - Santa Barbara beach, waterfall hikes, etc. The pool was unheated so we didn't get in much, but we did dip our toes. It was so nice to open up our doors in the morning to the wonderful view! The hosts also provided some cheese, bread, and jam which made for a nice breakfast the first morning.
Very lovely place quite in the center of the island and in the old town of Ribeira Grande. It has it's own parking spots and the self check-in smooth, so you don't have to know exactly when you arrive to get the keys. The three houses are well designed, so you don't really see the others as you sit on your porch. In April, using the pool was bit cold for us, but the children didn't seem to mind.
The location of this hotel could not be more perfect. The breakfast is also incredible and the staff was kind enough to meet each and every guest's request. The villas booked were all clean, comfortable and gave us a common space to meet in the evenings. The views from the terraces were also incredible. Having beach access is another positive aspect which we enjoyed during our stay.
We had the appartment, it is closely located near the swimming pool. 2 nice bedrooms, 1 with a terras, big kitchen, ...
Breakfast was delightfull, next to the pool.
Altough the hotel is in an oasis of trinquility, it was ok to play with our daughter in the swimming pool, which is always open. It was very relaxing and fun.
This accommodation in super nice.
Well located, 5 min drive to Santa Barbara beach and Ribeira Grande.
Our tiny studio was very clean and well organized, with everything you need.
The host was super nice, he left us both welcome and farewell treats.
Very unique is the garden with different types of plants and aromas.
The house is big and very pleasant. Ribeira Grande is a wonderful city to be in. It has two nice beaches, one of which, Areal de Santa Barbara, is probably one of the most beautiful in the whole island. There are also several nice restaurants to go to nearby. All in all, we loved to be there for our whole stay.
Beautiful house with a garden, swimming pool and a big kitchen, nicely decorated and clean rooms, very helpful and friendly staff, easy check-in, excellent breakfast and brunch and they even lend us orange towels to go to the hotsprings! Best hotel we stayed in during in Sao Miguel:)
Close proximity to the ocean - stunning beach with wonderful sunset views just around the corner. The property itself is quite modern (guess it’s been built or renovated recently), so it’s nice and clean, although rooms might have been bigger. Overall good value for money.
for me this was a very nice stay, spacious room.. clean and cleaned and serviced every day. super nice modern and new bathroom, the bathroom is that of a 5 star hotel. it’s near the center, with an optimal quality price ratio, I really enjoyed the stay.
This property is right in the heart of Ribeira Grande, and it is stunning! We loved that we were able to swing by the market and make our breakfasts back at the villa. This was a great central location for exploring the whole island.
Everything was perfect. Best place I stayed on the Azores. The host welcomed me and provided me with a map with his favorite places and restaurants marked. The bed was so comfortable. The place was clean and in a beautiful setting.
Really nice place to stay in Ribeira Grande, close to the beach but also to downtown. Clean, big room and very nice and well maintened common areas (shared kitchen and bathroom, living and dining area, terrace)
Orlando the host is a very kind and available person.
The apartment we had is big, calm, functional and clean, very well situated in Ribeira Grande.
There is a common kitchen very well equipped.
It has a very unique interior. The path down to the beach behind the property was very beautiful. The beach is something I didn’t see advertised but should be on the listing if not.
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!
Awesome hotel. Very modern. Looks like it was just built. Just on the ocean. Perfect view. Quiet. Continente (market) is just 2 mins walk. Lovely place
