The location, the room, staff and breakfast were all excellent. Would recommend this hotel and will return. Thanks for having air conditioning - it was so humid outside.

Ana United States of America

Beautiful rooms. Very clean. We arrived very early in Ponta Delgado because of our flight - while we couldn’t get out room until 2pm check in the hotel allowed us to leave our luggage and hung out at the pool for a bit to rest. Breakfast was included in our room rate and was excellent.

Michelyn Canada

The staff was great! Pedro was a gem and gave us all kinds of travel advice. The breakfasts were perfectly fine. Like drinking a glass or two of wine by the pool.
