Location and view were both awesome! A perfect view of Pico from the 'infinity-like' pool. A short-cut walk to the main street with restaurants and shops close-by.

This hotel is wonderful! Probably one of the best hotel-stays we've had while traveling around the Azores.
The room is super spacious, beds are excellent, the balcony is a big plus. Bathroom is great, shower pressure is good, provided products are of high quality. The breakfast is very varied and fresh, and everyone at the hotel is super helpful.
Would definitely stay again!

It felt like an inexpensive hotel that charged too much.
Set in a 16th century fortress overlooking Horta Bay and Pico island, this Pousada hotel features a swimming pool and regional restaurant. Most of the air-conditioned rooms have views of the marina.

I loved everything about my stay. Lucia and her husband are the sweetest people ever with the biggest hearts. Lucia shared a wealth of information regarding the island, the history, and the wonderful shops and restaurants in town. I had eggs from their chickens, the best honey ever from their bees, fresh bread daily, various fruits from their garden, and so much more. The house is so beautiful, comfy, and cozy.. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to hike and explore the countryside as I planned because of the extensive rain, so I was so glad I was in a place I truly enjoyed being. I wish I had booked more days there but will definitely return.

Loved the location of the apartment. It was close to the marina, ferry terminal, restaurants, and many shops. The apartment was extremely comfortable and very clean. Ample space, which made our stay more pleasant.

We loved the location and the view of Pico and the yard was absolutely beautiful. It felt like a family home. You could just feel the magic of Faial here.
We really enjoyed some local bars and restaurants.
We really enjoyed some local bars and restaurants. Peter Cafe Sport is a must. We loved a special night out at restaurant Atletico, great meat and local lobster.
There is a small bar next to our hotel called the Ubar that we loved going to the staff was very friendly, the food was good and a great value.

It is an island, therefore the weather is a bit unstable: it rains, drizzles, and the sun shines, all in the same day! The good thing about it is if it rains it's not for long. The temperature is mild 22 - 24 degrees Celsius in first half of July, and there's always a breeze which makes it very comfortable, but you'll need something warm for the evenings.
It's very quiet, not a lot of ppl walking around, but there seemed to be a lot of cars going, more than ppl on the pavements.
Eating and drinking: the majority of restaurants and bars seem to be quite upmarket and tourist tailored (with matching prices) and they're on the seafront, by the marina and basically in the town centre. But you can find more affordable places (where the food is actually more delicious and the portions bigger), you just have to look for them as they are situated away from the seafront, in the back streets.
Porto Pim beach is great, you can walk there, it's not far from centre and water is calm and warm.
Overall we enjoyed our stay, there are whale and dolphin watching trips and other activities, such as snorkelling and deep sea diving.
The locals are very friendly.

Don't just stay in Horta, specially if you have a rental car.
Purchase ferry tickets for yourself and for the car and visit two other islands of the archipelago - The Pico Island (ferry stop: Madalena) and the St. Jorge Island (ferry stop: Velas)
In Horta, visit the Caldeira do Cabeço Gordo, a volcano cone. If you're there on a clear sunny day, you can even hike around the volcano cone.
Visit the Capelinhos Volcano Museum - a real treat for geology lovers.
Our favorite beach was 'Praia do Almoxarife'

Horta offers so
Much.
Horta offers so
Much. It’s a great point to start exploring the island as well as the neighboring island. The harbor is very special to anyone with an interest of boats. The harbor full of yachts on their way across the Atlantic.
The town has several great restaurants and watering holes. The many streets are fun to explore and the neighborhood offers great hiking.
Peter Sport Cafe is a must as well as a stroll in n the marina watching all the paintings made by boaters heading home to Europe

A wonderful hidden island for people who like the silence, the hiking and the mountains. Beware that the supermarkets have few things.
Azores are expensive to live, because of few available homes and the prices raise up.

Loved the old city...however, construction was taking place which made getting around by car a little confusing. Loved walking around the waterfront and seeing the famous marina as well as the artwork created by mariners. Shopping in the local stores was a good experience with prices that you don't feel taken advantage of. Shopping in the city's Mercado was also a nice experience. Trying new restaurants around the city was also a good experience. While there, rent a car...best way to get around as public transportation is not regular or abundant. Also, try to visit the neighboring island of Pico on the ferry and spend a few days there...lots to see.

Very friendly and knowledgeable hosts, all their tips were spot-on and helped us make the most of our short stay on Faial (2 nights). The house is beautifully renovated and decorated. The communal kitchen is well equipped and organised, with ckearly marked separate storage spaces for each of the rooms. This is a wonderful pkace to spend a few nights or even a week in Horta.
The location is nice: just a few kilometers from Horta, in 2 minutes walking there is a nice church and a sea shore with a spectacular view of Pico.
The host Maria is very friendly.
Clean place.
The beds are excellent.
3 mins walk - there is a bakery with a very tasty breakfast.
Amazing garden with beautiful flowers
The property is located in the center of Horta, therefore ideally situated. Check-in was extremely smooth as the we were welcomed in person by a real person. The kitchen had more than what we needed: olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic salt, etc.
Location was perfect, easy access to Horta centre and ideal to explore Faial highlights. Large supermarket just 3 mins drive and a smaller one 1 minute drive. Nice view of Pico from the garden and the kitchen
