Wonderful experience at Atlantida
Reviewed By Jeff RWe couldn’t have been happier that we chose the Atlantida. Planning for our first visit to the Azores, we were initially unsure whether we wanted to be out of the main city of Angra. But in hindsight, we were happy we did. It’s an easy 20 minute drive from Praia da Vitoria on the occasions that you do want to go to Angra. (And I mean no offense to Angra. It’s a fantastic town and we visited it repeatedly.) And the benefits for us or multiple. The beautiful ocean view and sunrises from our room at the Atlantida. The far quieter and more serene setting vs. in Angra proper. The ability to walk out of the hotel directly to the Esplanade for a walk on the coast in the evenings. Easy parking. And, at least during our stay, the weather always seem to be better around Praia da Vitoria Then on most of the other parts of the island. And all of the things that others have already said. Lovely staff, spacious rooms, impeccably clean, excellent breakfast buffet.

Nice Hotel with need of a little TLC
Reviewed By DCARDSWe stayed here for a week as part of the Azores Getaway Package in May 2022. Location: Hotel is on the waterfront which is beautiful but a bit of a hike to the City of Angra. If you have any mobility issues you need to take a cab for about $5 euros or find a hotel closer. I didn't mind the walk, but in May it rained every night and was hard to plan the walk around the weather. Gym: Gym was closed due to renovations and the option was a gym in Angra. No prior warning of this. Bar: Bar upstairs has a patio over looking the water and the staff are very attentive and accommodating. Staff went out of there way to serve us. Maids: Rooms were clean but ran out of toilet paper and Kleenex and had to ask maids for refill. Left most days for tours and when we returned at 4PM the room still wasn't done. Requested an upgrade on booking to oceanfront, but was advised there were non available. With only about 20 people at breakfast I found this hard to believe. Staff assisted with electrical adaptors and assisted with restaurants in the area. Front staff assisted when asked. Most people reported the rooms outdated which I didn't find. The beds were firm but comfortable but we had two singles pushed together. We had room 220 which was second floor overlooking not much. The exterior paint needs a bit of work and the exterior looks a little tired. Construction was ongoing on the ocean decks below so jack hammers were going during the day. I guess the work needs to be done and the spring is the off season so no fault here. Breakfast: Breakfast was the same everyday which I was expected having read previous reviews. Breakfast was not bad, but always found something to eat. Coffee from the machine was watered down. We usually got a coffee across the street in the morning. I would not discourage anyone from going here just adjust expectations.

Much to like
Reviewed By LatinAmericanistaWe stayed here for 7 nights on a package and would recommend this hotel. Here are some things to consider: PROS: Large parking lot Decent breakfast offerings Friendly staff (English speaking) Modern hotel with modern conveniences Bar open in the evening Because we were on a package, I'm not sure what it cost but it was reasonable CONS: It's at the top of a steep hill. You'll get a workout every day! Bathroom configuration was odd. Had to sit on the toilet sideways Housekeeping was VERY erratic; had to ask for toilet paper and fresh towels more than once The lobby is not very large; it would be nice if they would open the breakfast room just to allow groups to congregate in the evening to play board games or dominoes The lighting in the bar is terrible miserable horrible! Fix that! Consider sprucing up the outdoor space of the bar Bartenders are not always available or very well-trained when the bar is open Staff sometimes are smoking at the back door; smoke travels to the interior of the hotel.

A great value and location
Reviewed By maladrinWe just got back from a week on Terceira and booked this hotel through an Azores Getaway package. As far as the value and location goes, you really can't beat this place. It's as central as it gets, very close to the shore and a lot of really great places to eat. The hotel is not new, but not in bad shape, and the staff was exceptional. The breakfast has a lot of options and is included in the room if booked the way we did. It has a gorgeous view of the botanical gardens behind the property. We had drinks and snacks at the bar a few times, and also on their 4th floor solarium (which also boasts an amazing view). If I had issues, the beds in our room were a bit stiff for personal taste (not like they kept us up or anything), and we'd asked for a King, but it was really just two beds put together. We thoroughly enjoyed our time on Terceira, and happy to have found such a central hotel at such a bargain.

Outstanding hotel and staff
Reviewed By 565russellbWe loved this hotel as it was modern, very clean, quiet (only 28 rooms) and a good location 10 minute walk to the center of Angra. Free parking was always available right outside the main entrance. The staff was exceptional and treated us like family. A big thank you to front desk staff Fermanda and Sergio as well as hotel restaurant worker Nunu.

Spring Vacation to Terceira
Reviewed By marioptwoWife an I stayed at this Boutique hotel for one week. Rooms were small but had all the amenities one could want in a room. Beds were very comfortable, small fridge in the room to keep your drinks cold and a coffee maker (hotel only supplies you with two pod, you need to buy some at the local grocery store, which we did). A/c worked well, tv was nice with a good selection of channels. Breakfast was great with a good variety for everyone, although it was the same every day. Hotel had a nice heated pool inside, a colder pool outside, a sauna and a nice touch with the steam bath. overall, staff were always willing to help and offer suggestions. Hotel wifi worked very well. Parking may be an issue as only two spots in front of the hotel, Parking lot is a short 5 minute walk. We would stay at this hotel again in the future.
9. Quinta do Espirito Santo
Overall Ratings
5 based on 40 reviews
Quinta do Espirito Santo is a cultural, historical, ecological and tourism project, based on a recently restored 18th century countryside manor house, classified as historic landmark since 2010, which embeds the aesthetic tastes, preferences and experiences of 5 family generations. We propose, in a calm, both erudite and relaxed setting, to share and enjoy with you the Atlantic, the Azores Islands and all the world stories that have come together in what was once a central hub of world communication.
A Mirror of the Island
Reviewed By James CDuring my 2-week trip around Portugal, Quinta do Espirito Santo is the most favorite. It is not only just a place for a stay but a place providing an authentic experience with the stories of Terceira Island. I stayed 2 memorable days here with Francisco -the owner who is also a very knowledgeable history teacher and museum director, and his wife, just like one of their family members. The manor itself (including the hotel's main buildings, subordinate houses, and a lovely tropical garden) is a mirror of the island's background, speaking to the maritime history and the special geographical position of this island. All the furniture and decorations have their own stories and histories. The host couple is very friendly, helpful, and talkative, and we always had very interesting talks. The rooms are very clean and atmosphere. This is a unique oasis of Terceira and Azores which makes a trip very unusual.

Good, solid 3 star hotel
Reviewed By Mariana PStayed for one night, in one of the recently refurbished rooms. Nice, bright and very clean. Comfortable bed and good a/c. Helpful reception staff and a reasonable breakfast, with plenty of choices. The hotel has a nice looking pool with sun loungers. Location wise, it´s a short walk from the seafront, with plenty of restaurants to choose from and a nice beach. Praia da Vitória is a quaint little town, with plenty of nice photo opportunities.
