Right next to Sete Cidades Lagoon, in the São Miguel Island of Azores, the Sete Cidades Lake Lodge features wooden bungalows with a unique architecture. Free WiFi access is available.

Framed by the lush vegetation, each bungalow includes an open-plan living/dining room with a kitchenette. Guests can relax on the sofa while enjoying the warmth of the fireplace and the views of the natural landscape. My family and I absolutely loved our stay at the Lake Lodge. The perfect accommodations and a stones throw from the lake, it was our favorite place we stayed in the island. Nestled into a lush garden landscape, we were completely enchanted walking through the property. The bungalows were so inviting, cozy and warmly decorated. The baskets of food and wine were a wonderful touch. We can’t wait to come back again!

The hotel’s rooms and suites are all air conditioned and feature a private bathroom, with a hairdryer. Each accommodation includes a flat-screen cable TV, a safety deposit box, telephone and free WiFi. Loved everything: pool area, spa, restaurant, rooms.

In the heart of Ponta Delgada, this hotel features a rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, mountains and the city. The marina can be found 500 metres away.

Private bathrooms and cable TVs are standard in all rooms at Hotel Sete Cidades. Some include balconies, while others come with mountains views. Lovely staff on reception were very helpful. Good value and nicer inside than outside, spotlessly clean room plenty of space, lovely toiletries. Excellent breakfast more than expected at that price.

MS Vila Nova is centrally located in Ponta Delgada, 1 km from the Convento da Esperança. The hotel features an outdoor pool.

My Story Hotel Vila Nova’s guest rooms are decorated in blue and grey tones. They include extra long beds and a private bathroom with bathtub and shower. Suites also feature a minibar. The location was perfect, in walking distance from the airport, which can be felt througout the stay as you could frequently see airplanes landing or taking off but due to the soundproof windows this is not as bothersome (it was kind of cool actually). The swimming pool was nice! (we also had one plane fly directly above us as we swam) - there are like 10 flights a day and only during the day, being a city airport, there are no flights during the night - so you don't have to fear that a plane will wake you up mid-night. The swimming pool was rarely occupied (we were staying mid-may) the initial dip was a bit cold but it got better fast enough. The staff was super nice, especially the bartender we met on our arrival. The room was nice and clean, with water and capsule coffee being refreshed daily (a regular and a decaf per person per day), the breakfast buffet had a wide enough selection so we could mix up our breakfast across our stay (and always it was nice). All in all a perfect stay, I can definitely recommend this hotel. 😊 PS: the maracuja Kima is a must try! (available at the bar)

Pico do Refúgio - Casas de Campo combines a natural setting with history, art, and sea views. It offers traditional-style houses with a contemporary design and an outdoor swimming pool in São Miguel countryside, Azores. This is a nice option to move around Sao Miguel. The location is great in a quiet and peaceful area. The place was beautiful and nice refurbished. The included breakfast was nice. In this place you have all you need to organize your stay on your own (kitchen, free parking, well location, supermarket nearby, huge garden and pool, barbecue, laundry, etc) very convenient. Ana, María Joao and all the staff were very nice, accesible, and helpful. Thank you all for making our stay amazing.

The whole decoration of the Azorean Urban Lodge is ruled by modernity, colours and comfort. Each bedroom is dedicated to a different character and features a private bathroom, either inside the bedroom or in the hall. The place was really great, room was spacious and very clean
