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. It’s an amazing place to get grounded and chill and rest. Absolutely astonishing location in the forest, with two chickens and a lovely cat❤️ There was a pretty comfortable kitchen where we cooked breakfast. A complimentary welcome bucket was with the most tasty dairy which I had tried in my life. In general, the place is new, clean and very aesthetic

All rooms, with a contemporary design, are soundproofed, have air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, safe, desk and private bathroom, which includes a hairdryer and free toiletries. Some rooms have a sea view. Everything. The location was ideal for us. The staff was 10/10, we had early check out and we would not be able to have breakfast and they prepared something for us and had it placed in the room. The breakfast was very good quality and I was actually shocked. In the afternoon there is cake offered for free - don’t hesitate to try it. It is very good. 24/7 coffee for free, ice tea and tea. I must also add something for the decoration - I loved it. Minimal making the place really relax for me.

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)

VIP Executive Azores features a restaurant with panoramic ocean views. The hotel is less than 1 km from Ponta Delgada Marina.

All rooms are decorated with comfortable bedding and feature a TV and minibar in the seating area. Each one is air-conditioned and has a well-lit work desk. Amazing hotel! Stayed here for 6 nights and loved it. Super nice staff, plenty of free parking on the street and we loved our daily walks into the city. Great Gin & Tonics at the bar! Breakfast was delicious with some local options.

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. Gorgeous apartment and grounds! It is clear that this retreat is cared for by artist hosts; every detail is thoughtfully implemented from the interior design to the breakfast variety. We didn’t want our trip to end.

The Azorean Urban Lodge is a refurbished one-hundred-year-old building featuring a magical terrace with dining tables and an outdoor pool. Free WiFi access is available.

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. This place was perfect to stay the first few nights in Sao Miguel. It had everything you need- comfy bed, separate bathroom and a equipped kitchen. I stayed in a single room the first night and then my friends and I shared a room with three single beds and attached bathroom. Parking can be tricky- the streets are narrow but we did not have any problems finding spots near the lodge. Also, you will hear planes overhead- this is close to the airport so it makes it convenient in that way but if you don't want that noise, you will want to stay farther away from the airport.
