Golf Hotels in Ribeira Grande, Azores

"Staff was very friendly and responsive."

"Internet was fast , room was very warm"

"This hotel is phenomenal. I have stayed in many hotels, and I was genuinely impressed by this one. We stayed for three nights during the Furnas portion of our trip and enjoyed every second of it. Centrally located in Furnas, the hotel is within walking distance of numerous restaurants, shops, a pharmacy, bakery, and supermarket, which made exploring the area incredibly convenient. We were checked in by Claudia, who was so friendly and even provided us with a plug adapter after we realized we had forgotten ours. I believe she also noticed it was my birthday, even though we never mentioned it, because on the day of check-in we received a surprise knock at our door: a complimentary bottle of champagne and glasses from the hotel. We were also treated to a special appetizer from the chef at dinner at no extra cost. These thoughtful touches were completely unexpected but made us feel truly appreciated as guests. If that is not enough to convince you to stay, the breakfast rotates daily and tastes amazing, and guests also have 24-hour access to the thermal pools and gardens. The property truly feels like an oasis. Although there is plenty to do in Furnas, you could easily spend your entire stay at the hotel and still have a marvelous time. We also booked spa massages during our stay and had a wonderful experience. The only thing I would change is booking this hotel for our entire and driving to excursions across island because this hotel truly felt like a home away from home!"

"ОБЫЧНЫЙ ЗАВТРАК.СКРОМНЫЙ ДЛЯ ГОСТИНИЦЫ 4 ЗВЕЗДЫ. ОТСУСТВИЕ ЗВУКОИЗОЛЯЦИИ В НОМЕРАХ, ЗВУКИ УБОРКИ НА КУХНЕ СОПРОВОЖДАЛИ НАС ДО ПОЗДНЕГО ВРЕМЕНИ. ПЕРСОНАЛ ПРИВЕТЛИВЫЙ, НОМЕР УСТАРЕВШИЙ , НЕМНОГО С ЗАПАХОМ И СТЕКЛЯННЫМИ ДВЕРьМИ НА ТЕХНИЧЕСКИЙ БАЛКОН С ГЛУХОЙ СТЕНОЙ И ТРУБОЙ ВЫТЯЖКИ С КУХНИ."

"Perfect location for exploring! Rooms are super spacious. On site parking is very convenient. Staff are super friendly! Breakfast is delicious!"

"Hotel is clean just a bit old and needs some love. Especially the shower, it's half a bath, so if you have mobility issues not good. And shower head was not good at all (so small and not much power). But hot water ok. Pool is in the basement which is dark, and can't use it if you don't have a swimming cap. Location is convenient, close to highway if you are driving, historic town 10-15 min walk, shopping mall 25 minutes walk, grocery almost in front of the hotel. I had no issues to park on the street overnight."

"Perfect stay. The location is ideal, walking distance to the main sights but not in a crowded street. There’s free parking round the corner and paid parking on street (not expensive). The swimming pool, jacuzzi and steam room were excellent addition. Rooms have a balcony with nice views. Staff were very friendly and helpful. You can rent pool towels with a deposit of 10€ per towel. Breakfast can be better (the pancake machine is an experience haha), but overall excellent for the price."

"We stayed at Santa Bárbara Eco-Beach Resort expecting a family-friendly experience, but it was completely unsuitable for traveling with a toddler. While I can see the appeal for adults seeking a quiet, remote retreat, there is very little for children to do. When the weather is poor—as it was during our stay—you are essentially stuck indoors with no meaningful activities. The layout adds to the difficulty. Rooms are located up a hill, requiring a golf cart to move luggage, which is inconvenient with a child. Safety was a constant concern: stone floors, steps, and design elements made it easy for a toddler to slip or get hurt. Even the reception had candles placed on the floor, which naturally attracted our child. Outdoors didn’t feel any safer. There are areas with minimal or no guardrails and proximity to cliffs, meaning constant vigilance is required at all times. It was stressful rather than relaxing. The bathroom condition was also disappointing. The one positive was the excellent food, but it did not make up for the overall experience. We ended up leaving after only a few hours to find a more suitable hotel, and despite not staying the majority of our booking, we were unable to recover any unused funds. In summary: a nice retreat for adults, but not appropriate for families with young children."

"Huge breakfast bar, grest dinner food, service 10 stars. Hot.pools are best feature. It was so good that we returned after a couple of day after chevkout just for a dip in y be pool (spa visit). If we return on tbe island, we'll stay in this hotel."
