Aanrader
Pros:

De locatie was prachtig gelegen. Het appartement was zeer ruim en mooi. Er was meer dan voldoende gerief aanwezig.
Ook handdoeken voor aan het zwembad werden voorzien. Mooi zwembad met voldoende ligstoelen.
De eigenaars waren zeer vriendelijk - brachten ons zelfs naar Sao Vicente.
Op wandelafstand is er een goede supermarkt.
Het inchecken verliep prima.
Kortom: we hebben genoten van ons verblijf.

Large, bright apartment in small seaside town
Pros:

Very true to the pictures. Apartment was spacious, bright and airy. It was a little cool when we stayed so did not get to enjoy the pool or sitting outside but still enjoyed the views out the massive windows. Kitchen was reasonably well equipped for two people. We found it quite quiet and didn't hear any town noise or other guests.

Cons:

Bathroom was a bit dated but functional. No coffee pods provided and the cafe was not open when we left for the day the first morning, so we were not able to get any coffee until the next day after stopping at a grocery store in Sao Vicente to purchase some. Suggest contacting them prior to your check-in to confirm what type of coffee machine is in your room so you can come prepared.

Pros:

L'emplacement au calme en face de la mer. La grande piscine à disposition. La grandeur de l'appartement avec terrasse.

Cons:

L'accueil un peu froid, peut-être parce que notre arrivée était un dimanche en fin d'après-midi. Il pourrait avoir des capsules de café pour alimenter la machine et des sachets de thé.

Pros:

De ruime kamer met alle faciliteiten, koelkast, fornuis, waterkoker , bestek etc. Goed bed. Prachtig uitzicht vanuit de kamer. Vriendelijk staf en goed restaurant. Dat is ook wel nodig want in Ponta Delgada is verder niets. Op 10 autominuten is Sao Vincente en daar is een kleine, leuke boulevard met winkeltjes, restaurants, bakker en patisserie.

Cons:

Zie boven. Punta Delgada zelf

Pricey hotel with decent amenities. Good location and amazing view
Pros:

The view from location itself is stunning. Hearing the ocean waves and that landscape, wow! We had a small balcony on which we had breakfast in the morning. The apartment was perfectly clean, spacious, it came with some essentials (eg salt and pepper, dishwashing detergent, sufficient pans for cooking). We haven’t used the pool area, but it seemed very nice. The location is very good to explore the north of the island, as it is centrally located. Sufficient space for parking. There is a bar open during the day where you can have a meal/snack.

Cons:

All in all, this felt a bit too expensive for what we got. We paid literally half of the price for a hotel in the south west, which provided more. For example, it would have been nice to have some additional basic things provided, eg towels for the pool/beach, oil for cooking, shampoo and shower gel, etc. However, looking at prices in the north, it seemed to be the average as there seems to be less accommodations in general. The reception was mostly closed, so we didn’t have the chance to ask for recommendations or other things we might have needed. The bed was 2 single beds pushed together, so not ideal for a couple.

A calm retreat
Pros:

The apartments are in a lovely setting around a pool. It is a very relaxing place to sit and read, listening to the birdsong and watching the lizards scoot about. The owners and their assistant Natalie are lovely. The cafe is open 15h00 to 20h00 and serves local cuisine. Everywhere is spotless and the owner keeps the shrubbery looking perfect.

Cons:

Mostly, we liked everything. The apartment had a rustic feel, which was fine for us. It was in the older building, so if you want modern, ask for one in the newer block. We found the bed too hard for us. The complex is probably not on main drainage as there was a wiff in the bathroom. Keeping plugs in seemed to work. I am not a cook, but the kitchenette might have been a challenge if I'd wanted to produce a full meal. Perfectly fine for snacks though. There were a few places to eat in the village, including a pizza/burger cafe if you prefer international food.
