Our room was much nicer than any hostel and most hotels I have stayed in, with doors leading directly to the garden. Room was also was cleaned daily. Breakfasts were delicious and different every day. Could not have asked for a better experience. If you have a car, be sure to ask for their free parking map.

Alph, Canada

No problems with the hostel. Loved all of the artsy stuff. From the gardens outside to the painted refrigerator and doors in the family room. Our problem was not having any signs, and could not fing with GPS at night and no parking. We walked in circles for blocks asking for help multiple times looking for the Hostel.

I think, the price was a bit high for the facilities and level of comfort that we were provided. This is just a hostel, in overall scheme of things. I think, it's because the property is referred to in many travel recommendations, online articles and blogs, that the property management find it reasonable to increase the price. We wouldn't have been able to find this property on our own. It's not clearly identified by a street sign. Its name does not show above the entrance or in the window, etc.
The property was exactly how it was described. I loved its style and design. The combination of old house structure with renovated facilities was great! The staff was super-duper friendly and accommodating. We had a late check-in, on top of it out flight was delayed, and despite all this, when we arrived, the staff was still there, we were welcomed and showed around and showed up to our room. That was very much appreciated. The property has a lovely and very large backyard garden, where they serve breakfast. The staff makes buckwheat pancakes and sandwiches every morning! Gotta love that! :))

We cannot thank Out of the Blue enough for being such a special part of our holiday. The people, the location, the cleanliness, the facilities and the food were all faultless. Every morning you wake up to a beautifully prepared breakfast and every evening there is a dinner in the wonderful garden that is not only delicious, but also allows you to mingle with the other guests. All the staff are so friendly and welcoming throughout your stay and it's a great atmosphere throughout the hostel. We could not have had a better stay and will recommend Out of the Blue to anyone.

Can be a bit noisy and creaky, but nothing else.
Great place! They have pretty much everything you might need - backyard with common breakfasts and events, free tours in electric van with a charming guide, pick-up for surf lessons. Dinners are free of charge if you are staying in a private room, just make sure to sign up in advance. The staff are also great and helpful, mostly multi national guys.

“Tasty breakfasts, good location & friendly people”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • 6-Bed Dormitory Room with Shared Bathroom
- • Stayed 4 nights
TRIPS: I'd love to take part in some of the trips organised by the hostel, but you have to book them very early on. By the time I found out (from other travellers) that they are so nice, all were full. ALL MIXED ROOMS: I didn't find that info before (while booking), but was informed at the hostel that all rooms are mixed, there are no female only rooms, but everybody was nice & there are many bathrooms to use, so no problems. WIFI: I'd be great if wi-fi was working also in the rooms. As of now, it works in the common room & the kitchen. However, it's not a big problem as there are places to sit down as well.
PEOPLE: Very friendly welcoming & people working at the hostel! After the first night I requested a room change, because one of the people staying there was extremely loud at night (and also very drunk!) and the staff was very quick about arranging a change so by afternoon I already had a different room! I noticed that many friendly people stay at this hostel, so it's a nice place for solo travellers as well :). FOOD: Great breakfasts served outdoors (in a very nice place) with famous pancakes (& always something additional that is a surprise), so you always look forward to breakfast :) . Also, you can sign up for dinner (not expensive) but it's always tasty, good size of the portion, with a wine or a drink & you can chat with other people. If you need to leave early before breakfast, ask at the reception - there is always some food provided so that you won't leave hungry. If you want to eat out, ask for recommendations at the reception (but often you'll need to reserve a table because many places get busy fast). ROOMS: Comfortable rooms (I stayed in a room for 6 people but it was quite large) with air conditioning. There is also a kitchen & living room available for all of the guests - nice place to stay & chat / talk about various trips or discoveries of the day. BATHROOMS: There are few bathrooms, so there was never a problem to find one available and they are all very clean! You can see them being regularly cleaned, also have nice interior and plenty of warm water, toilet paper. You can get a towel if you leave a deposit. LOCATION: The hostel is within a walking distance from the major streets of Ponta Delgada (about 7-10 minutes walk), walking distance to the marina (15-20 mins) and local market (approx. 10 mins). In general, I noticed this hostel is a little bit famous among the locals as a nice place and ...rightly so! :)
