Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Tercio, Theresa, Marlene.. We had such a wonderful stay at this hotel! My son, my father, and I truly felt welcomed and comfortable from the moment we arrived. And this is our second time staying here, last time we stayed about a year and half ago! The hotel was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well cared for. Everything was spotless, and you could tell that the staff takes great pride in maintaining the property. The beds were comfortable, the atmosphere was relaxing, and we always felt at home during our stay. What really made our experience special was the friendliness and kindness of the entire staff. Everyone we interacted with was warm, helpful, and genuinely welcoming. It made such a difference, especially traveling with my son and my father. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful hospitality and the care shown to us throughout our stay. We would absolutely not stay anywhere else when we return. This hotel will always be our first choice! Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so enjoyable and memorable. We truly appreciate everything you do!
בריכה, ג׳קוזי, חדר איכותי ומאובזר ומיטה נוחה
חבל שאין ארוחת בוקר
Personal superatento, amable y simpatico. La ubicación ideal para recorrer la isla. La terraza con vistas al Atlantico un lujo y la piscina climatitzada un punto mas. Calidad precio imbatible, sin duda repetiremos
Nada
Habitación muy cómoda y limpia, piscina de agua templada maravillosa, instalaciones cuidadas
Nada
L'emplacement, la vue, la piscine, la propreté....
Les personnes ne respectant pas les consignes à la piscine.
La piscine chauffée et le spa, la localisation, le personnel au petit soin. La propreté
Salle de sport mais peu de machines fonctionnent vraiment bien.
Very clean and spacious
The spa area was not really working, half of facilities closed, gym is very outdated. But as we didn't want to use it, we didn't bother
Localisation, piscine chauffée et personnel attentif aux besoins.
Rien, tout était très bien !
La vue, le calme, la gentillesse du personnel, la localisation sur l’île, la piscine chauffée
Pas grand chose. A noter pas de machine à laver le linge dans l’appartement. Service de blanchisserie proposé par l’hôtel mais facturé à la pièce.
Der Meerblick von der oberen Etage: überragend. Die Kommunikation (vorab und während des Aufenthalts) mit dem Personal: überragend. Die Räume und Ausstattung von Küche etc: sehr gut. Wir und unsere Kinder haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
Basen Lokalizacja blisko oceanu
Brak ręczników dedykowanych do basenu
Todo fue perfecto el personal fue muy amable desde el primer momento ofreciéndose a reservarnos en sitios para comer eso si tuvimos un problema con la cafetera pero fue resuelto al momento, la terraza muy amplia y con buenas vistas y todo muy limpio además de una perfecta ubicación cerca de una playa.
Hubo un pequeño problema y es que no tienen un mini tendedero para tender las toallas cuando vuelves de la playa.
Super établissement, le monsieur qui nous a accueilli le soir était très chaleureux, l’appartement était vraiment spacieux et l’établissement etait très calme.
Le canapé lit n’était pas très confortable
Appart hôtel propre et neufs
Excentré du centre ville, pas de vue sur mer depuis les appartements du 1. Pas de vue sur mer piscine. un prix cher qui à mon avis n'en vaut pas un 4*
l'amabilité du personnel la vue de l'appartement sur l'océan la grande piscine à débordement
Piscina de água aquecida é muito confortavel, estando ou nao a chover, um mergulho sabe sempre bem. Funcionarios muito simpático e profissionais, o quarto tem um bom espaço, tem muitos utensilios de cozinha e está renovado. A localização do hotel é boa, tal como a facilidade de estacionamento no mesmo.
Gostaria que as camas fossem um pouco mais confortaveis, tal como as almofadas. Alguns equipamentos de cozinha, tal como frigideira, necessitam de ser substituidos. No SPA a sauna a funciona teria sido um plus.
Obsługa była miła i pomocna. Zarezerwowaliśmy z ich pomocą wycieczkę na obserwację wielorybów i delfinów. Można również poprosić o świeże pieczywo za dodatkową opłatą. Na miejscu jacuzzi, sauna i mała siłownia oraz basen otwarte do 22.
Gostei muito da minha estadia no Whalesbay Hotel. Limpeza, funcionários, conforto tudo muito bom.

Počasí
Fijn zwembad, ruim balkon met prima meubilair en goede temperatuurregeling. Fijne douche en prima bedden. Centrale locatie vlak bij de kust.
De bank is niet erg comfortabel.
The staff were excellent. Very helpful and welcoming and responding to needs following a flight delay.
All the respect to the staff working at this hotel in May 2026, they must be the nicest people I've met. They seemed genuinely happy when we arrived and they saw us, and were so nice and helpful and made us feel so welcomed. It was only us around, but they turned on the sauna and jacuzzi for us. The apartments are nice, and the outside pool is a little heated, so we were able to use it in May even though the weather wasn't very warm yet. And the view from the balcony was so, so beautiful. I really hope we'll return someday.
...professional and friendly
Colchões fracos e não ter possibilidade de fechar a entrada de luz matinal na janela da cozinha, visto que há um sofá cama na sala/cozinha
Velice prostorný apartmán, krásný výhled, vybavená kuchyně, bazén s telkou vodou, výřivka, sauna... Velice příjemná recepční, možnost drobného nákupu přímo na recepci.
Malou renovaci by si zasloužil sprchový kout. Jinak bylo vše výborné.
Gostamos de tudo. Superou tudo. Deu para descarregar o stress.
Os apartamentos
O ginásio precisa de ser renovado
El personal muy amable siempre atento a ayudarte. Me dejaron hacer el check in una hora antes. El lugar es muy tranquilo y si tienes tiempo puedes usar su gimnasio y sauna, que aunque no era muy grande, era más que suficiente para relajarte.
El acceso a la recepción no tiene rampa y hay que bajar escaleras, pero tampoco era un inconveniente porque no eran muchas.
Hotel propre, lits agréables, bons équipements dans les chambres. Piscine extérieure sympa. Personnel très agréable Parking sécurisé
Les équipements sauna, hamam ou sportifs sont vieillot
Chambre et balcon vue sur mer, très bien orienté. La literie est de bonne qualité. Il y a tout les équipements pour cuisiner dans l'appartement.
Rien
Nocleg na trasie na jedną noc - pod tym względem było ok. Recepcja czynna do północy, parking na miejscu, bardzo dobry kontakt z recepcją. Całkiem przestronne pokoje.
Widać ząb czas na wyposażeniu. Twarde ( jak dla mnie materace). W tracie naszego krótkiego pobytu, ekipa remontowała pokoje - zamiast poczekać do wymeldowania, wiercenie w ścianie w pokoju obok od 9:00.
Tudo
Gostei de tudo, sitio calmo e tem todas as comodidades necessárias para uma boa estadia
Nao teve nada a apontar
Lo cierto es q nos sorprendió para bien, supero nuestras espectativas. El apartamento estaba muy limpio y muy completo en lo q respecta a menaje y todo en general. El lugar muy tranquilo y las vistas excepcionales. Todo un aciero y muy recomendable.
No tengo queja de nada.
Nám se ubytování moc líbilo, personál byl velmi milý a ochotný, pokoje krásné s výhledem na moře. Potěšila i hernička pro dítě a využili jsme i venkovní bazén,výřivku a saunu a vše bylo moc příjemné. Lokalita sice není v centru města, ale stejně jsme měli auto a všude jezdili autem.
We liked everything about this hotel. Essentially located so very convenient to go to all the hiking spots we wish to see and all the major areas on the island. Parking was great and easy and we loved the spacious quarters. There is a great coastal walk just a short distance from the hotel that gave us great exercise and stunning views.
Unfortunately a group of men were staying there and decided to start partying every night at about 10:00 or 11:00 p.m. We tend to go to bed early and get up early to go hiking so we talked to the front desk and the last night the problem seemed to be alleviated. There aren't a lot of restaurants or supermarkets nearby but we were always out and about so we just grab something as we were traveling. The kitchen is well stocked so it's easy to stop at a grocery and get what we needed.
Os funcionários são atenciosos e simpáticos. Tudo funcionando bem .
Gostei de tudo.
Enjoyed the spacious condo. Kitchenette was nice to have so you could cook your own meals if necessary
El apartahotel está muy bien, El apartamento muy amplio y con unas vistas preciosas
Dado que está en un sitio apartado convendría que tuviese un servicio de restauración.
Good facilities incl a heated pool.
Apartamentos muy cómodos, con camas grandes y cómodas, moderno, amplio y confortable. Cocina con amplio repertorio de menaje, con una terraza para disfrutar. Instalaciones comunes muy bien preparadas y habilitadas. Lo mejor, los profesionales del hotel. Volveremos.
Falta un tostador de pan como menaje de cocina. Almohadas excesivamente blandas. Limpieza más frecuente de las habitaciones.
The Whales Bay hotel is highly recommended. The place was very nice and clean. We enjoyed swimming in the pool and even got into the jacuzzi for a few minutes. The location is nice also as it is out in a quieter area but still only about 25 minutes t Ponta Delgada. The only thing missing was a nice breakfast.
Como alguém que vê os comentários para avaliar se uma possível estadia é possível, posso dizer que o alojamento é sossegado, amplo e limpo. Os quartos têm boas áreas, as camas são muito boas e a cozinha está muito bem equipada. A acrescentar, tem uma piscina com água quentinha, da qual usufruimos todos os dias. O staff atencioso e disponível a ajudar. O alojamento não tem a localização mais central mas, de carro rapidamente estamos em qualquer lugar. Recomendo vivamente!!
we really love the place- love the tranquility and scenery
It was a beautiful experience with a great location
Pulizia, posizione e piscina
Niente
Posizione comoda per visitare tutta l' isola. Struttura pulita, accogliente, con tutti i servizi necessari. Personale gentilissimo e super professionale. Li ringrazio tutti di vero cuore.
The heated pool was a nice bonus for us. Great view from the top floor. One of the hiking routes passes right next to the hotel.
It's a pity that there is no breakfast and no cafes or shops within walking distance. Although by car everything is nearby and in the lobby they sell necessary things at reasonable prices.
Apartamentos com boas áreas, limpos e sossegados. Adoramos a piscina exterior aquecida!
Se gostam de um pouco de animação mesmo à noite, este não é o local ideal. Área muito sossegada.
Appartement sympa où davantage d'équipements seraient appréciés. Par contre les équipements extérieurs sont très bien (piscine chauffée, mini golf, jacuzzi, jardin...).
L'appartement était très bien équipé et très propre. La piscine chauffée est un vrai plus !
Rien
Amazing property with very friendly staff. Perfect for families with young children.
Great stay…quiet. Kids loved the pool.
Muito bom bela escolha
Superbe appartement avec vue sur la mer avec une très belle piscine. À quelques minutes d'une piscine naturelle et bien située pour visiter l'île.
Le bâtiment est propre et bien entretenu. L’appartement immense et en très bon état. La propreté est irréprochable ( merci mesdames). Les installations sont fonctionnelles et en parfait état. Quant au personnel, gentillesse, disponibilité et professionnalisme sont au rendez-vous. Un grand merci à l’équipe de la part de toute la famille. Nous avons passé un séjour paradisiaque.
Rien
Impeccable, notre penthouse! Cher, mais cela valait la peine. Personnel aimable et serviable, propreté absolue, service attentif, tout était ainsi
Je ne vois pas grand-chose qui puisse être amélioré
Stay in the hotel for two weeks and enjoy every single moment. Nice place very clean. Staff Very polite, courteous, and professional. definitely it’s a place to go back. Enjoy the pool.
Has air conditioning
Staff was great, friendly always ready to help. We were with a 2 1/2 year old grandson and he wet his bed and they came and replace the sheets no questions asked. Manager was a great friendly person always asking us if all was well and if we needed anything. We will definetly go back the next time in Sao Miguel.
The place is very quiet, hotel staff helpful and everything was super clean.
Beautiful property. Clean apartments. Pool is clean and warm. Friendly staff. Kid friendly. Ensure you rent a care if you are at this property.
We chose this hotel/apartment because it has a fully stocked kitchen, beautiful location near the ocean, free parking, pleasant, and courteous staff and away from the hustle and bustle of downtown and only 10–15 minutes car ride away. there is a supermarket about five minutes drive and a few bars and restaurants around. and on top of it, the daily price is reasonable.
Funktional, gut gelegen, allerdings wenig Charme und etwas heruntergekommen. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet, es gibt einen großen Balkon sowie Pool und Saunabereich. Das Appartment hat leider null Charme, ist etwas heruntergekommen (abgenutzte Stühle, wo sich die Beschichtung löst, Kalk und Schimmel in der Dusche, kaputter Balkontisch). Das Schlafzimmer hat den Reiz einer Jugendherberge mit zwei getrennten Betten und ebenfalls abgeschrupptem Kopfteil hinter den Betten. Zudem liegt das SZ zum offenen Flur, mab schläft quasi neben dem Aufzug und hört jeden Gast, der sich in der Etage bewegt.
Loved our stay there. So quiet and clean. The staff was so friendly. Would recommend this to anyone!
Great hotel located right at the ocean on the quiet street. 30 minutes away from the most of activities and only 15 minutes away from Ponta Delgada. The personnel was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were very clean and comfortable.
We were thrilled with this property for a family of four. The views from the penthouse apartment were incredible. Lots of space, super clean and anything you could need was in the apartment. You need a rental car for this area but it was so peaceful and scenic. Incredible walking trails right outside the complex. We enjoyed the spa amenities and pool every night! I would highly recommend Whales Bay!
Good potential
They are under construction, most of the hotel is closed and it feels like you are disturbing the workers. Very very disappointing
All People very kind Place very nice
Nothing all very good
Big apartment, friendly staff, lots of parking.
No sea view in our room (we know it cannot be guaranteed)
The view was great, the garden and rooms were kept in perfect condition, the service was nice. The swimming pool and SPA area were awesome
Ein empfehlenswertes Hotel. Apartment mit moderner und großzügiger Ausstattung. Für einen Meerblick sollte jedoch die 3. Etage gewählt werden.
Room and its amenities were great and everything was very clean. Parking was easy. All the staff were super friendly and communication was always quick and easy with them, before and during the stay. We had casually mentioned to one of them that we were on anniversary, and our last day they sent a gift basket for us as a surprise! Would definitely stay here again.
It is an apartments hotel. We are a couple, and had a T1 apt, which is the smallest. It is quite large. It has a spacious leaving room with fully equipped kitchenet. The bathroom facilities were brand new and functioned well. The bed room is also very spacious and cosy. The bed very comfortable. There is a good a A/C. The WIFI is super strong and stable. The stuff, either in the reception or cleaning are very polite and helpful. The WIFI super strong and stable. They have also a wet room (sauna, steam room and jacuzzi) which is a nice place to relax at the end of the day, and is opened until 10:30 pm. The hotel is from one hand 20 minutes drive from ponta delgada, and from the other hand 30 minutes drive from sete cidades and the lakes
We had the penthouse room 301 and it was fantastic. It was modern, open, clean and bright with ample space. The view was fantastic. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. There are only a couple of walkable food options, but it was worth it. Highly recommend.
