Quinta do Mar was a great choice for our first holiday in the Azores. Chris was walking out to greet us before we'd even parked our hire car outside. Incidentally, Nick had reserved our hire car and we didn't have to pay anything in advance of arriving at Ponta Delgada Airport to collect it. Car hire is a stressful necessity... More

A wonderful 10 day holiday centred around my husbands 50th Birthday. What can you say - th best things - Chris's cooking, Nick and Gildas friendliness and Porto (the dog). It felt like a home from home. The atmosphere at hotel as relaxed. It takes my husband at least 48 hours to get in the holiday mood normally, but he... More

This review is long overdue, and for that I apologize to Chris, Nick and Gilda. My wife and I spent the first 2/3 of our week on São Miguel at Quinta Do Mar in early Sept 2011. The Inn is stunningly gorgeous. The rooms are large and immaculate (thanks Gilda). The food was top notch and the hosts were immediately... More

My wife and I spent a week here while exploring the island and loved the way Chris, Nick and Gilda added a touch of class (and delicious breakfasts) to the relatively plain (but naturally beautiful) atmosphere of Sao Miguel. Rooms are large and very clean and Chris was extremely helpful in catering to our desires. If we ever return to... More

I read the great reviews and they all became reality when I arrived. Very clean and comfortable room, wonderful breakfast, personal service, etc. Gilda is wonderful, Chris the best chef and Nick a great host. The only thing I regret a bit, was the lack of comfortable chair outside. There were many loungers and terrace-chairs, however I would have liked... More

This is a very belated review, which I apologize to Chris and Nick for immensely. This was basically the best bed and breakfast I can imagine. Do yourself a favor and stay here if ever travelling to the Azores. To be honest, my wife and I did not enjoy the actual vacation much, but Quinta do Mar was a bright... More

Wow - Quinta do Mar certainly lives up to every thing people have written on tripadvisor and everything mentioned in the brochures. Perfect. Chris and Nick have thought of absolutely everything and more. 11/10. Definately worth 5 stars +

Arrived late at night, or was it early morning, but both Chris and Nick were there to greet us and make us feel welcome. This care and attention was always evident during our stay and we felt that when we left we left behind friends. Chris's breakfasts were to die for and each day a different offering. That good I...
