This is the best apartment we’ve ever stayed! 100% Recomended and we’ll return here for sure.
The apartment with 5 star conveniences had everything we need: starting from the bathrobes and slippers till the products for breakfast from the hosts as we arrived late. That was very sweet.
Peter and Zita are very nice and helpful. Thank you very much for the hospitality.
And the best part of the stay is the garden with amazing trees and landscape. The view to the green hill and birds singing, this is a paradise :)

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.

Ribeira Grande is a great starting point for trips all around the island. It is located almost in the middle of island so everything is pretty nearby. On the other side it is relatively small city so it is not overcrowded. 15-20 minutes from airport.
Absolutely loved the apartment. It exceeded my expectations, it offered a way lot more than you expect in a good quality hotel, it really felt like home. Spacious, sparkling clean, kitchen with all equipment you can imagine, bed super comfy, living room area comfortable. I definitely would stay again. High quality, hope they keep it up as they do excellent job! Bakery closeby, private parking was appreciated since otherwise hard job to find a parking place in those busy narrow one way streets. It was close to walk to the promenade by the sea.
Wonderful location, new kitchen, friendly and accommodating host, and all around great stay! Can’t believe it’s not a perfect 10.
Carlos provided an amazing array of local produce that was the best gift we have received at any booking stay.
The washer was just what we needed after a rainy and muddy week. The kitchen had all new appliances and the two heater/ACs helped keep both the upstairs and downstairs at a temperature that worked for us.
The location is right by the beach, which you can see from the backyard.
Our accommodations at "Quinta do Passo" in the town of Ribeira Grande on the Azores were exceptional. Wonderful design, modern, well maintained, clean and all amenities available.
Perfect location with yet private inner court with pool and amazing garden. Rear patio area and grill as well.
Key pickup and communication were impeccable. Rooms were cleaned twice during our stay with a change of towels.
Host, Eduarda e Nuno Costa got back to us within minutes of any question we had and resolved all inquires.
Very nice place, decorated with taste up to the little details. Great location, super friendly staff, comfortable beds. We were provided with welcome cookies, tea, coffee, bathrobe, even with beachtowels. .Upon arrival, we were given a local map and orientation about the place and then sights. Great kitchen, it has everything you need. It is well organized with separate spaces for each room, the same in the fridge There's laundry service in Ribeira Grande and in Ponten Delgada if you need to do laundry. :)
The host was extremely kind and welcoming, showed me to the room, and walked me through the premises (i.e., the shared kitchen/living room, the location for breakfast). The breakfast was standard with some savory and typical breakfast granola and toast options. The room was delightful, spacious, clean, and the terrace gave a nice glimpse of the beach from the nearby fields. Parking was easy, as there's plenty of street parking right outside of the rooms.
This is a lovely traditional house in the outskirts of Ribeira Grande. It feels like youre staying in grandmothers home - and I think you actually are! The owner, Emanuel, is extremely kind and helpful, and gave us plenty of recommendations and planned out itineraries for us. Breakfast is good. All the amenities. Great price. Highly recommend - this is a great home base for traveling around the island with a car.
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.
Rose Apartment A was a really good choice to stay in Ribeira Grande. Check-in was very easy - we obtained a number code before our arrival (it is good that you do not need any key to bring with you all the time). The flat is quite big, the bathroom is huge with double shower. :) There is a small parking place just next the corner (or you can park on the street if it is full).
- Ideally located in Ribeira Grande in a calm street, but not far away from the city center.
- Charming residence with a lot of love put into the details of the design
- Very good and local breakfast
- Nice garden and swimming pool area
- Friendly and helpful staff
- Enough parking spaces for the rental cars
It is a big, spacious apartment. WiFi is stable. It has a balcony but it’s very small and you can’t use it for sitting, unless you bring kitchen chairs outside. Not even a space for small table. A free parking nearby, but in Ribeira Grande most parking places are free.
This was the perfect place for our little Azores getaway. The staff were friendly, helpful and flexible. The location was great and the breakfast had a lot of variety. The rooms and entire place were spotless. We would definitely stay here again.
Really nice place to stay in Ribeira Grande, close to the beach but also to downtown. Clean, big room and very nice and well maintened common areas (shared kitchen and bathroom, living and dining area, terrace)
Breakfast was amazing and offered a lot of variety. The views from the hotel were spectacular. The staff is very friendly, professional and accommodating. They really made this stay special.
It has a very unique interior. The path down to the beach behind the property was very beautiful. The beach is something I didn’t see advertised but should be on the listing if not.
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.
