"The place is beautiful, in a great location, private and secluded, with nice amenities such as hot tubs, pool, wood BBQ. It looks just like the pictures and overall, we enjoyed our stay. But, - very limited hot water. Takes long to warm up and then only lasts 5 minutes. Not enough for 2 showers. We could only fill the amazing bath up a few inches before it got cold, so kind of useless. - lots of ants, and when we complained, we were told to deal with it ourselves - there was a birds nest...

Top Fort of Santa Cruz Hotel Reviews

Casa Tres Picos in Porto Pim, Horta

10/10 Excellent

"This place was beautiful! There was so much room and was beautifully decorated. Philpi was such a great host and despite having a family she was prompt to answer any questions we had. The location was perfect for walking to the city center, with several restaurants along the way. I highly recommend staying here. Everything was perfect."

Internacional Azores Boutique

10/10 Excellent

"Nice clean shared dorm room. Bit hot at night but OK with the windows open and AC was also working. Very central location - especially great if you’re diving. Also a large parking lot a few minutes away if you’re driving. Would recommend again"

Hotel do Canal

10/10 Excellent

"5/5"

The Book Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Every single staff member was warm and welcoming. The hotel is well-maintained and the room was very clean. The Japanese toilet in the room was a nice amenity, and toiletries were also available on the bathroom counter. The bed was comfortable and I like the different lighting options you can use. The pool was my favorite feature of the hotel. It's on the roof where you can also access the spa. The pool and hot tub are connected so you can easily switch from one to the other. It's a small, shallow pool, so there is no diving and not much room to swim - all you can pretty much do is just float in the pool, which is really all you need. The hotel is a block away from a park/garden and a couple of blocks away from the marina. Everything is walkable. The front desk staff were very helpful. They gave me great suggestions for restaurants, shopping, and even helped me reserve a taxi tour of the island. I will definitely be staying here again."

Azoris Faial Garden

"Room was spacious and had a lovely ocean view. Property was clean and fresh. Convenient location. Would recommend! Staff was helpful and responsive through email with the check in process as I had arrived early before the room was ready."

Nereida

10/10 Excellent

"Cozy apartment under the roof with an outstanding view on the marina and Pica island, very convenient location in the heart of the city. Everything that you need (including washer) in the apartment. The host provided with helpful recommendations and ordered taxi for us from the airport. We’ll be definitely coming back."
