Affordable, lovely, gem

Lovely, family run place for a very reasonable price. The little mini houses are spacious and we’re perfect for our family of 5. The place is just a 12 min drive from the airport and features an excellent restaurant on premises.

The host was so kind, definitely made us feel special. remembered us when booking a reservation at the restaurant on the property!
beautiful space, pool was very clean the entire time.
we loved our stay and would definitely return.
We did see there was breakfast offered from 9-10 for guests for 9 euros, but when calling the restaurant we’re told they didn’t do breakfast. we didn’t mind much, as there was a kitchen in the suites.

Good, but somw improvement needed.

The stay was good, but we dis have some issues with thw air conditioner (not working for 1st two nights). There were a couple of days when the pool was not clean, and the last week or so, the jacuzzi was filthy. That is not acceptable. The owner's dog was often lose around the pool area, which was ok for us, as we like dogs, but might be a problem for other guests. This was our 2nd stay at this hotel. The first time we were thrilled. This time, we were a little disappointed. We were put in a room that was not really a separate bedroom/living room, no separate AC for the bedroom, so if bedroom door and storm type shutters put down to separate rooms, the bedroom was too hot. This \"new\" room needs some work. Also, parking for hotel guests can be an issue when the restaurant is busy.

Home away from home

The four days that we stayed at Quinta de Santa Casas Barbara, we had everything to feel like home, the comfort, space, kitchen, view, peace, quietness, very clean, private, well situated, very friendly, and location. I hope to return back again, but for a longer stay. I do recommend this place, you'll feel welcomed. I can't find anything negative about this place. They have a restaurant, but, unfortunately, we didn't have the change to to try it, we're mostly raw vegans, and we did hear good comments about the food. We want to thank the staff and owner for the perfect stay, it did really felt like home.

Amazingly Comfortable Stay in the Azores

We felt welcomed from the moment we arrived. Despite a snafu encountered with our check-in time, we found that we couldn't offer enough positive comments about our stay. The property is beautiful and replete with all the essentials (i.e., apartments with fully stocked kitchen, beach towels, snacks,
rain shower head, and toiletries; swimming pool; sauna; Turkish baths; gym; and restaurant). The owner really thought of everything! There were three people in our party, and we were comfortably accommodated in the apartment with 2 twin beds and the full sofa bed. Next time we visit Ponta Delgada, we will certainly stay there again.

A gem near Ponto Delgada.

This place was great. The apartments are modular, modern, and well-equipped. The grounds are beautiful and well-maintained. I didn’t use the pool, jacuzzi, or sauna but they looked good too. The owners were wry helpful.

The compound is located near, but not in, Ponto Delgada. We had a car and it was nice to be away from town at night.

There is a restaurant that seems quite popular with locals. I didn’t go but it was usually medium-full. A supermarket is very close, walkable distance.

A great place to stay in the Azores

The Quinta was great. It did not have a negative review when we booked it and I can see why. The location is great, central to both sides of San Miguel island and right off the highway, but still it feels quiet and tucked away. The rooms are nicely appointed with a full kitchen and living room and everything was clean and tidy. We took advantage of the hot tub on a rainy day and the small outdoor table for breakfast in the morning. Simply a great place to stay.

Excellent self catering accomodation

Friendly welcome with a quick tour of the excellent facilities. Individual units were clean and well equipped. Although self catering, breakfast could be ordered and delivered to your door. The excellent on-site restaurant that is used by local residents as well as guests of the complex, but is closed on Mondays and was closed for a private function on the Sunday evening when we were there.
A good supermarket is just 10 minutes walk away and is open every day.
Would recommend a car. The location is an excellent base for touring the island.

Good directions and the place was easy to find. Apartment was spacious, well equipped & beautifully presented.We used the gym & sauna everyday - immaculate facilities. The crystal clear pool & jacuzzi offer a comforting relief on warm days/evenings. The restaurant was rightly priced & the variety of choice, vegetarian included, was impressive. The food was served swiftly and was delicious!
The owner & his family oversee & manage the place remarkably. Overall an excellent choice for a week long holiday. We would recommend this place for couples & families alike without any reservations.

The room was very well appointed (everything one could need, including dishwasher, juicer and even a welcome basket with treats), with excellent amenities (super easy to use electronics and a/c).

Couldn't have wished for anything better

Despite the fact we arrived after midnight, we were given the full and friendliest of welcome and tour. The apartment was even nicer than the pictures implied, very clean, spacious, modern and complete. Breakfast is at an extra cost but well worth it, as is the restaurant (wonderful food, friendly service, and can be delivered to the apartment too for a TV night with restaurant-quality food).
The location is great with easy access to all corners of the island. There is some background noise from the motorway, mainly in the morning, but easily ignored and minor compared to normal city noise, and unnoticeable within the apartment.
After an excellent experience and impression of San Miguel we will return to the Azores to explore the other islands and hope to stay here again, if only briefly.

Accomodatie heeft een goede ligging, als je ook beschikt over een auto (is sowieso aan te raden). Is een afgesloten terrein, wat gevoel van veiligheid geeft. Het restaurant op het terrein werd verbouwd, dus er liepen wat werklui rond. We konden gebruik maken van zwembad, sauna, bubbelbad en dat ook aantal keren gedaan. Supermarkt is op loopafstand. Verder niet veel verwachten van het dorpje daar.
Goede communicatie met eigenaar (engels) gehad.

Bien mais humidité +++

Ce complexe de touriste pourrait etre top mais il y a quand même des points négatifs dont le plus gros est l'humidité (dans l'appartement 1 pour notre part) !!! Nos vêtement ne sèchaient pas, nos smartphone devait être \"soit disant sécher\" pour pouvoir charger, les fenêtres étaient mouillé à l'intérieur, l'odeur pas agréable... enfin bref humide de partout ! De plus, lors d'un fort épisode de pluie pendant 1 journée, l'eau coulait par les lumières intérieure du plafond (dangereux) d'une des chambres et le lit + matelas ont été trempés totalement...
Le propriétaire qui était tout de même très sympa, nous a enlever le matelas mouillé. Sinon le reste du complexe est top avec piscine, hammam, spa, salle de sport et sauna. Il faut tout de même prévoir 1h pour le sauna et 15 min pour le hammam avant de pouvoir y aller le temps qu'il chauffe. Il n'y a pas de reception par contre mais certainement la maman du gérant qui vit la bas au besoin. Sinon l'appartement était complet au niveau équipement meme avec une serviette spéciale \"Furnas\" si besoin pour les bains thermaux. (Attention tout de meme à la proprete car il y avait des mouches morte dans les rail des fenêtre). A voir maintenant si l'humidité était propre à ce bungalow ou également pareil dans les autres... petite carresse au petit chien Princenza ;-)
On note aussi un restaurant collé au complexe accessible jusqu'à 22h00 qui est fermé le lundi à priori (jour de notre arrivés) qui etait tres chic et bon.
