"A very good hotel with an excellent breakfast and great amenities. The room we stayed in—located on the floor 0 felt a bit dated; upon entering, there was a noticeable stale odor. In the evenings, there is wonderful live music in the bar and a very pleasant atmosphere. It is an adults-only hotel, though I would say its 55+. I recommend it for a peaceful, relaxing getaway!"

"A great apartment on the edge of the old town. Fab views of the sea and of the local area - great for people watching. Good size living / kitchen area with well appointed cooking area. Full sized fridge freezer which is always a bonus. Bedroom at the back with a small rooflight window - no aircon - but a decent fan in both areas. Walk in bathroom/ shower was without a window and limited mechanical extraction - so had a v damp smell - a design fault - but had to keep that door closed. But the...

Mirasol Guesthouse

Mirasol Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent
"The property is filled with character. It was converted to a guest house in 1961 and the decor has very interesting fittings and furniture. Our room was very comfortable and quiet with a small balcony with sea views. The location was excellent too, just above the Sao Tiago fort with small beach just a few minutes away. Daniel was a great host and the ladies who assist were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely with a great selection, including local fruit. There is a comfortable sitting room on the first floor with a good supply of books. A really exceptional place. We loved it and hope to return."
