รีวิว Hotel do Mar

Very good hotel with cool.breakfast and pool/jacuzzi. Quiet and pleasant ambience!

Een hotelkamer met een groot balkon en uitzicht op zee. Parkeren voor de deur. Een fijne plaats om de oostelijke helft van het eiland te ontdekken.

Отель достаточно старенький, но с атмосферой. Приятный персонал. Есть бассейн и джакузи, напротив отеля чудные виды на закат. Номера просторные, а вот кровати немного просевшие-одна была терпимой, а вторая совсем неудобная. Из минусов-плохая шумоизоляция и шумные горничные по утрам. Завтрак приличный-ничего сверхъестественного, но выбор большой и еда вкусная. Прямо под отелем полицейский участок и вечером в субботу останавливали все машины подряд-проверяли на алкоголь или наркотики.

Calidad precio buena. Habitación cómoda. El secador se desconecta a los 30". Repetiríamos

Óptima relação qualidade preço e simpático pequeno almoço.

Sweet boutique hotel with awesome views. Our ocean view room was well equipped with comfortable beds/pillows and a large balcony that we used in the evening after a busy day exploring Sao Miguel. Beautiful scenery and listening to the ocean at night was very soothing. Breakfast was tasty but the breakfast room/lobby could use some ambiance (soft music, more comfy lounge chairs?). Staff were pleasant and helpful overall. Couple who own the snack bar at the pier were very friendly and welcoming if you want to sit there on warm days and enjoy the outdoor pool and gorgeous scenery. Good hotel if you are looking for a quiet, peaceful rest.

Small hotel right on the marina at Povoacao. Clean, tidy, friendly helpful staff. Room had a harbour view which was lovely, and it was very comfortable and just right for our week's stay. Bar downstairs was quiet most nights, as is the town itself, but they did a good selection of local beers and wines and many people ate there in the evening (bar snack type meals). Breakfast was a good choice of eggs, bacon, many different breads, yoghurt, juice and coffee so something to cover everyone's requirements. Reception is manned 24 hours and the can help with suggestions of places to go etc. Its part of a chain of about 5 hotels around the islands and would stay in others based on this stay in Povoacao.

Pretty average experience all round, nothing outstanding. In need of some updating. Didn't like the fact the room safe was only available if you paid a nominal extra fee (really? Just include it in the room price). Pool was okayish, but tiling to floor around it was covered in weeds. Not ideal with bare feet. No coffee or milk in room... it's about time they did. Nothing massively bad but sadly the attention to detail was seriously lacking. Even the staff on the front desk weren't engaging. At check out I complained that the shower didn't work. " what room number? " she said. I told her, then nothing, not even "I hope you had a good stay", or "goodbye have a safe trip". Sums it up really.

Report on Our Stay at Hotel do Mar, Azores Our stay at Hotel do Mar on the Azores was quite pleasant. The location is convenient with free parking available right in front of the hotel. If the front parking spots are occupied, there are additional parking spaces available around the hotel. The room we stayed in was clean and spacious enough for two adults. The bathroom was also clean and well-maintained. One notable feature was the refrigerator, which was extremely quiet; we couldn't hear it at all during the night. The surroundings were very peaceful, especially at night. Even though our room was ocean-facing on the first floor, we couldn't hear the ocean at all—it was completely quiet, except for the occasional noise from neighboring guests. Unfortunately, every evening after 11:00 PM, our neighbors would take showers, loud discussions, which lasted until around 11:45 PM almost mid night. This disrupted our rest, as the noise was quite noticeable. I would recommend that the hotel staff remind guests of the hotel’s quiet hours during check-in. It would be helpful if everyone could be more considerate after 10:00 PM, allowing all guests to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing stay. The breakfast offered at the hotel was relatively good. I didn't try the coffee myself, as I had read reviews beforehand that mentioned the coffee wasn’t very satisfying. Based on those reviews, I brought my own coffee and condensed milk from home. So, while I can't comment on the actual taste of the hotel's coffee, I was prepared based on what I had read. Overall, I would recommend this hotel. It offers a nice, relaxed atmosphere with perfect ocean views and is an excellent starting point for daily excursions around the island.

The hotel itself was decent, showing some age in the pool area. Staff was friendly. The only thing that garnered a 2 star rating is their policies. My wife and I were ending a week long family vacation with our son and his wife and a 15 year old grandaughter. I booked two rooms, one a Suite. Pictures clearly showed that the main room of the suite contained a couch bed and trundle bed that would accomidate our grandaughter for the night. When we arrived they said that she could not utilize the couch bed as they restricted that to children under 12, so we were forced to pay for an additional room! Worse was the closet in the suite contained all the bedding materials and pillows necessary to make a comfortable sleep. I have traved extensively and NEVER ran into this before. She didn't want to sleep alone, which required my wife to join her for the night. I wrote them when we returned home and their reply was Too bad, that is our policy. In many places you need to be at least 16 to book a room.

Absolutely loved our 10 night stay at Hotel do Mar!! The rooms had everything we needed (except for coffee!). The cleaners were magnificent, the hotel was spotless and the room was cleaned daily. All the staff were very friendly and spoke amazing English! The pool and jacuzzi was brilliant for days we wanted to relax and read . Breakfast was good and included the best scrambled egg! Our view was spectacular, we spent a lot of our evenings listening and watching the ocean and fishermen. The location is perfect! We didn't hire a car and got around the island on public transport. This may not suit everyone but we loved it. The infinity pool just down the road from the hotel was something else! One of the best holidays we have ever had, thank you to all the staff team for making us feel so welcomed and taken care of!! We will definitely be back

Me and my partner just got back from a week here and we were very impressed by the hotel. It's a great place to stay in a little town to explore the island. The breakfast was a typical buffet style with bread, ham, cheese, cereal, eggs and bacon. The coffee is from a machine like most hotel seem to do these days not sure why it will be classed as poor by some people. We had a suite and it's quite big. It's clean and comfortable and has what you need. I appreciate that maybe some of the decor is a little bit older but this is not a five-star boutique hotel. We thought it was quite a quaint place and the turret is a great place to sit and enjoy the views. It seems some people don't understand the star rating on a hotel. They think it means level of luxury when it actually means the services that are offered. The staff were very friendly, this is a great location right on the front by the harbour. We were out of season and it was relatively quiet in the bar area etc but we had a fabulous time as it was a break from the hustle and bustle of every day life. The pool was cold but most are these days, and it is quite small but we never really used it that much. I did however use the hot tub jacuzzi several times which was really nice. Drink prices in the hotel are good particularly the cocktails. This hotel more than suited our needs for a week and I would recommend the place, but just don't expect a 5 Star boutique hotel.

The facility and views were beautiful! The staff went above and beyond to make our room beautiful (rose petals/star confetti and chocolates on our bed). It was quite a welcoming surprise! We being deaf, the staff: front desk, the bartenders and breakfast crew were very friendly and helpful in whatever we needed. The food and drinks were good in the hotel. In town, there are many places to eat and shop for food. Be mindful that the airport is about 55 miles away, well worth the drive with beautiful sceneries on the way! Taxi services are also a plus! Thank you! CJ

Beautiful view from the balcony, lovely quiet town and only a block or two to the restaurants. Easy parking and a good hot jacuzzi to lounge in after a full day of exploring. Not fancy rooms but the beds are comfortable and the rooms were very clean.
