The house was perfect for our family of 7 adults and 2 small children. The location is amazing, very close to the beach (you can see the sea from some of the rooms and from the sundeck), and a restaurant and beach bar just around the corner. We used the outside kitchen/barbecue a lot for our dinners. We loved the outdoor space,its of places to sit and relax, and even a jacuzzi!
The staff was very attentive and sincere. We had a delicious breakfast at the Resort daily. The beach was an integral part of a relaxing stay. Once you become accustomed to a round-about, you'll be fine driving. The city of Ribeira Grande is very walkable too.

Lots of hiking around, great beaches, nice local restaurants, bars and coffee shops. Relatively good public transport to get around. Often cheaper to take taxi to get around than renting a car. In total we spent 4 weeks on the Azores and had a rental car for 4 days, this was one too much. Taxi is great for getting almost everywhere. Public transport is somehow good.

The town has some very interesting historical buildings, but it seems the economic turndown took a lot from its better days. Walking there at night was rather a Lovecraftian experience. It's safe, but it's just that there's not much to do there. But it's a small island and the town is right in its middle and it was very handy for the day trips visiting its different parts.

Ribeira Grande is a fantastic place to stay if you're visiting São Miguel. It is located more central than Ponta Delgada while being only a 15 minute car ride away from the airport, so it's the perfect place from which to explore the entire island. An added bonus is that it's right next to the best beaches in São Miguel: most beaches on the island are rocky, the only true sandy beaches are next to Ribeira Grande. We went surfing twice at Santa Bárbara beach, only 10 minutes away from where we stayed in Ribeira Grande. The city itself is fairly small but quaint and has everything you need, including a pretty large supermarket (Continente), some cafes and restaurants, stores, even a laundromat. The only downside is that for vegans/vegetarians it's pretty hard to eat out, but that is true for almost all of the island except a few places in Ponta Delgada.
This was our fifth and last accommodation during our honeymoon in the Azores and the one we stayed at the longest. The hotel is ideally located in Ribeira Grande, not far from any of S. Miguel's landmarks. It is modern, very well maintained and the staff is friendly and helpful. We appreciated the honeymoon surprise left in our room very much! Extremely good value for money during the off-season when we stayed and highly recommended to anyone staying in the area!
It's a very clean and comfortable place about a 10-minute walk from the centre of Ribeira Grande. The breakfast was big enough and included lots of local products. The bed was comfortable and the wifi connection was fast. The owners are very knowledgeable about Azores and helped me in planning my hiking trips. The location is in the middle of the island, so everything was within an hour of driving.
Everything is amazing about Quinta do Passo: central location on the island with easy in and out, spacious and clean, beautiful surroundings with pool, outdoor shower and plenty of outdoor seating, villas are fully stocked for all your needs and many markets, cafes, and restaurants within 5 min of walking, plenty of towels for bath and pool/ beaches/ thermal trips… I could literally go on and on.
The house is very clean and comfortable, with a shared kitchen, shared bathroom, terrace and living room; the breakfast is great! It is located very close to the amazing Santa Barbara Beach and also a bus station and a nice bar are close by (ribeira grande center is a 20-minute walk, though). Caroline was super nice and helpful! I would go there again.
We enjoyed our stay in the villa. The location is perfect in Ribeira Grande, just 10 mins walk to the local beach and pools and 20 mins walk to Continente supermarket. Thanks to Daniel for welcoming us and for morning bread. That’s hands down, the top notch facility in San Miguel to relax and enjoy surroundings.
The hotel has a youthful atmosphere, friendly and smiling guests, responsive hosts. A beautiful red cat who tries to participate everywhere.
Close to the ocean, surfers' beach. In general, a quiet area, next to a pasture with horses.
Classic hotel breakfast - bread, eggs, jam, cheese, meat. Delicious coffee.
Everything was perfect and special in the hotel. This hotel is unique and exceeded our expectations, wish we have stayed more days there, the decoration, location, the treat…
Special thanks to Claudia the guest relations and the twins who were extremely kind and helpful!
Best staff in the island.
We absolutely loved this property. It was easy walking to the beach, pool, restaurants etc.
The kitchen had everything we needed to cook in and it was a bonus having a washing machine. We loved that they had a basket of local goodies filled with local products. We loved the back patio too.
Close proximity to the ocean - stunning beach with wonderful sunset views just around the corner. The property itself is quite modern (guess it’s been built or renovated recently), so it’s nice and clean, although rooms might have been bigger. Overall good value for money.
Very friendly and helpful staff! The room was nice and clean, the breakfast was good, and there is a nice pool. Although situated in the center of Ribeira Grande, the accommodation is easy accessible and has a private parking.
We can only recommend this cottage! It was awesome. The interior design beautiful, the people sooo nice, we even had a welcome gift ob the table and the garden is just stunning! If you go to Ribeira Grande, stay there!
Amazing hosts and lovely B&B atmosphere. They were welcoming, accommodating, and offered helpful insight into our different travel plans. We would highly recommend this location as a base to explore Azores!
The apartment was located right at the center of Ribeira Grande with a lovely view to the main square. Was well decorated and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Great place to stay in Sao Miguel.
The breakfast buffet was fantastic. The front desk staff were very helpful with answering questions, and booking dinner reservations. Enjoyed being able to purchase a bottle of wine at the hotel
The hotel was clean, and amenities were open most of the time. The location was central to many places on the island which was its strong spot, and the views of the ocean were also very nice!
Very responsive and helpful host who reacted to every question or request ASAP. The accommodation is in a beautiful location near the beach in a quiet small town.
