Hotel berhampiran Parque de Merendas, Ponta Delgada

Albergo lontano dal centro del paese di Capelas, raggiungibile a piedi attraverso una panoramica strada sterrata (priva di illuminazione pubblica, e quindi non percorribile dopo il tramonto), oppure rasentando i muretti in pietra lungo una strada carrozzabile dove le vetture sfrecciano veloci… L’albergo offre alcune attività, per chi desidera godere appieno di una vacanza rilassante, come ad esempio una piscina esterna circondata da molti lettini a disposizione degli ospiti, palestra interna dotata di numerosi attrezzi, una piscina interna, ed una sala giochi con tavoli per giocare a carte o a dama, con anche un tavolo da biliardo (a seconda dell’attività scelta in sala giochi, ci potrebbero essere costi da dover regolare in reception / si veda descrizione foto). Sono a disposizione degli ospiti, gratuitamente, degli ampi teli di spugna da utilizzare in piscina. Nelle camere, a disposizione gratuita ci sono bottiglie d’acqua, bollitore e bustine di tisane e zucchero. Ci sono anche cialde di caffè Nespresso, a pagamento extra di 0,75€ cadauna. L’albergo ha un’anima “green”: oltre a proporre agli ospiti un cambio non quotidiano della biancheria da bagno (che, comunque, viene effettuata se richiesto), premia coloro che non necessitino di far rassettare ogni giorno la camera da letto ed il bagno, con un voucher del valore di 3,00 Eur da utilizzare al bar dell’albergo o per le bevande ai pasti in ristorante. Se si preferisce una pulizia quotidiana, bisogna dirlo in reception ogni giorno entro le ore 12.00 (ed in questo caso si “perde” il voucher). In caso contrario, la camera non viene rassettata, e alla sera si può chiedere il voucher il cui valore può essere scalato immediatamente dalla consumazione di bevande al pasto, da regolare con pagamento diretto o con addebito alla camera. Le stanze sono ampie, dotate di balcone, con pavimento in listelli “simil-legno” (no moquette). Letti ampi e con materassi ergonomicamente rigidi al punto giusto. Poche prese a muro per ricaricare, contemporaneamente, telefoni mobili e p.c. od altri dispositivi elettronici. Rete Wifi gratuita a disposizione degli ospiti, ma priva di password di sicurezza. Per chi si sposta in automobile, l’albergo dispone di due piazzali di parcheggio, interni alla struttura ma scoperti (parcheggio non interrato). Colazione e cena a buffet: ampia scelta di piatti, ben curati, e variati tutti i giorni. Servizio attento e non assillante del personale di sala che libera il tavolo dalle stoviglie usate. Personale di reception cortese, che parla anche inglese. E’ un albergo nel quale ci siamo trovati bene e che consigliamo.

Mooi, zeer rustig gelegen complex met appartementen en hotelkamers. Het complex is gelegen in het rustige dorpje Capelas, kwartier rijden vanaf de hoofdstad en het vliegveld. Een auto is een must, maar die heb je toch nodig om dit prachtige eiland te bezichtigen. Ons 2-kamerappartement was zeer ruim en schoon. De bedden lagen prima met keuze uit twee kussens. Keuken zeer volledig met oven, magnetro, Nespresso apparaat (cups tegen betaling) en waterkoker met gratis thee aanwezig. Het hotel wil vanwege het milieu de gasten stimuleren om minder gebruik te maken van de schoonmaakservice. Bij geen schoonmaak ontvang je per dag een voucher à €3 om in het restaurant te besteden. Echter is €3 in dit restaurant niet veel waard, aangezien de prijzen fors zijn: een cappuccino kost hier €3,50 terwijl op het hele eiland de prijzen voor koffie rond de €1, 20 liggen Je moet zelf om de vouchers vragen, ik vond het geen handig systeem en de compensatie is natuurlijk totaal niet in verhouding (€3 versus geen schoonmaak, handdoeken, opgemaakt bed, aanvulling thee en fles water). Het restaurant waar we koffie hebben gedronken met de vouchers vonden wij ongezellig. Van de sauna, fitnessruimte en het binnen- en buitenzwembad geen gebruik gemaakt, dus dit kan ik ook niet beoordelen. Voldoende parkeerruimte. Gezellig koffie drinken tussen de locals in cafetaria Moby Dick in het dorp. Supermarkten Pingo Doce en Continentale vlakbij op auto afstand. Al met al een prima verblijf.

This apart-hotel complex is absolutely beautiful, flowering bushes everywhere with a lovely scent. Our apartment was large and airy and had a great private terrace on the first floor (2nd floor if you’re North American). It really was a home from home with a full dining area with table and chairs and lounge area with sofa, soft rug and tv. The main double bedroom was upstairs with an anteroom having a sofa/pull out bed for children or guests 3&4. Lots of storage in the bedroom but there was a distinct lack of hangers in the wardrobe but loads of drawer space. The kitchen is adequate enough for simple meals (no oven) with a twin hob and microwave, kettle and toaster, and a selection of pots and pans. We managed really well. The hotel provides breakfast 8am - 10am if you want it at 12euros per person. We didn’t try this option. Housekeeping are amazing and come every day! Everything is clean and beds are made. Towels can be changed daily if you like. For a self-catering holiday we found that a lot was provided in the apartment for us: washing up liquid, washing up sponge, washing up cloth and a tea towel. These are replenished and changed as needed. There is also toilet roll, shower gel and hand wash provided in the bathroom which was lovely - again, replenished when needed or on request. The complex gardens are beautiful and well-tended. The pool looked lovely and well-cared for, however we didn’t try it out. There seems to be a hot tub in a wooden building off the pool area - we took a look but it was grubby and the water had floating debris. I’m sure they would have sorted it out if we had asked, but we were out and about discovering the island every day. You definitely need to hire a car for the duration of your stay here as there isn’t any bus route nearby and taxis would be very expensive to get around the island. HANDY TIP: If you’re picking up your hire car on landing at the airport and driving to Quinta da Santana - to get into the complex there is an electronic gate that requires a remote control. When you first arrive, drive past the big metal gate and find the next smaller (pedestrian) gate. Put the hazard lights on in the car and get out to ring the bell. This alerts reception who will come and open the gate for you or just give you a remote straight away so you can drive into the complex. We had a horrendous time of looking and looking and going around and around the roads trying to find the entrance!! We didn’t know about the need to ring the pedestrian gate bell (face palm!) The reception staff are lovely and very accommodating and speak English very well. I’m not sure what other languages they can speak. The area that Quinta da Santana is situated in is the one fly in the ointment….it seems really run down and the road they are situated on is all full of industrial buildings and commercial businesses. Further exploration within Santana uncovers the grubbier side of agricultural life with its local working class community.

Wonderful place in a perfect location! Short walk to restaurants, cafes and waterfront. Very clean room. Cute patio. Friendly, helpful staff. Cozy place for our family of 5. Everyone had their own bed. We rented a car to explore the island. Free parking a few blocks away. Thank you Carlos, Luis and Maria! We will be back!

A localização é boa, bastante central o atendimento foi bom. O pequeno almoco podia ser melhorado nas quantidades de elementos para por no pão o que nos deram era insuficiente para duas pessoas e os cereais de pequeno almoco deviam ser algo como aveia e granola em vez de chocapic e estrelitas. No geral considero que tem uma boa qualidade preco.

Great hotel!! Easy check in, easy check out. Centrally located. Right across from the marina so you can leisurely walk around the town. Exceptional housekeeping!! Large, delicious breakfast buffet. Outstanding staff. Wonderful restaurant . We will definitely go back.

We stayed for four nights in a king room and returned for one night to a standard room on our way home both were excellent , Check in was so pleasant nothing was a problem stored our cases for 12 days while we visited islands ,Welcome drink is a nice touch and personal card in room each time . Off street parking ,really nice pool with towels available at reception ,lounge off reception with menu was our stop for lunch . Breakfast was perfect lots of fresh fruit and pastries. Outside was repainted while we were staying and looks great, you can see the management are investing and improving the hotel and when you walk in reception lounge/bar has a real fresh feel . Hotel is well located at the end of the sea front and a short walk to plenty of good restaurants. Thanks to staff for a super stay and we will definitely return next year . Honestly couldn’t recommend hotel enough.
