The location is right by the beach, so you fall asleep to the sound of the waves. The bed was very comfortable, the room felt warm and inviting, and Cristina took great care of everything. It’s also a good base for exploring the island. We hope to return in the future. ##### Tim ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marie-Pascale 17 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Marie-Pascale Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Worcestershire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Worcestershire.d602292.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Santa Barbara Eco Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ribeira-Grande-Hotels-Santa-Barbara-Eco-Beach-Resort.h10947731.Hotel-Information) > > [Senhora da Rosa Tradition & Nature Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponta-Delgada-Hotels-Senhora-Da-Rosa-Tradition-Nature-Hotel.h45631041.Hotel-Information) > > [Britannia Aberdeen Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberdeen-Hotels-Britannia-Aberdeen-Hotel.h527125.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Eden - Dorchester Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rome-Hotels-Hotel-Eden-Dorchester-Collection.h16311.Hotel-Information) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Lytham St. Anne's](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lytham-St-Annes-Hotels-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d182579-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [OBLU SELECT Lobigili with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.co.uk/OBLU-SELECT-Lobigili.h72915067.Hotel-Information) > > [Octant Ponta Delgada](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponta-Delgada-Hotels-Azor-Hotel.h15244399.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Marina Atlântico](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponta-Delgada-Hotels-Hotel-Marina-Atlantico.h1142406.Hotel-Information) > > [Turunc Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marmaris-Hotels-Turunc-Resort-All-Inclusive.h1366243.Hotel-Information) > > [Iberostar Selection Anthelia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Adeje-Hotels-Iberostar-Selection-Anthelia.h1216803.Hotel-Information) > > [Bitácora Lanzarote Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tias-Hotels-Bitacora-Lanzarote-Club.h11830836.Hotel-Information) > > [Quinta da Abelheira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponta-Delgada-Hotels-Quinta-Da-Abelheira.h6332685.Hotel-Information) > > [The Views Baia - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Four-Views-Baia.h2775468.Hotel-Information) > > [Dumfries Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cumnock-Hotels-Dumfries-Arms-Hotel.h22222685.Hotel-Information) > > [Thon Hotel Rosenkrantz](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bergen-Hotels-Thon-Hotel-Rosenkrantz.h63970.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Açores Atlântico](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponta-Delgada-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Acores-Atlantico.h2865267.Hotel-Information) > > [Sao Miguel Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponta-Delgada-Hotels-Sao-Miguel-Park-Hotel.h1191688.Hotel-Information) > > [Pedras do Mar Resort & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponta-Delgada-Hotels-Pedras-Do-Mar-Resort-SPA.h13249997.Hotel-Information) > > [Rothley Court Hotel by Greene King Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leicester-Hotels-Rothley-Court-Hotel-By-Greene-King-Inns.h1538667.Hotel-Information) > > [King's Holiday Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Kings-Holiday-Apartments.h15110041.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Jaipur District (JAI) to Marmagao (GOI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jai/goi/jaipur-to-goa) > > [Flights from Liverpool (LPL) to Rhodes (RHO)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lpl/rho/liverpool-to-rhodes) ### Activities > [Things to do in Great Britain](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Great-Britain.d553248623451644244.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Buckinghamshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Buckinghamshire.d6046190.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Kendal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Kendal.d180820.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Gibraltar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Gibraltar.d1325.Travel-Guide-Activities)
