We had an incredible stay at Quinta dos Bravos during our trip to São Miguel. The location is perfect for exploring the whole island while still being striking distance to the many restaurants of Ponta Delgada. The garden and pool are beautiful but the incredible hospitality is what will bring us back here every time!

We had a wonderful 10 night stay at Quinta dos Bravos. The property amidst the gardens is so beautiful, with great care taken for every detail. The rooms are spotless. The breakfasts are nice with homemade cakes. On our last night, we had the loveliest dinner onsite made by Irena, which was a highlight. Paulo, Irena and their staff were attentive, kind and gracious. We look forward to returning and highly recommend staying here!

This is a lovely property. The hosts were so friendly, helpful and welcoming.Our room was spacious and it was super clean . The breakfast that is served is inside a beautifully decorated main house. again, everything is spotless. The breakfast was eggs, breads, cheeses, meats, yogurts, fruits . Ther is a charming porch to sit out on as you have breakfast with a beautiful view all the way over to the ocean.Unfortuately, the weather did not cooperate for use of the pool. Would highly recommend a stay.

Vše bylo naprosto skvělé! Dům je neuvěřitelně útulný (cítíte se jako doma, pomalu až lépe než doma), pokoje jsou krásné a čisté. Měli jsme pokoj s velkou manželskou postelí, která byla velmi pohodlná a vždy jsme si v ní dobře odpočali. Paul (hostitel) je neuvěřitelně milý a přátelský. S čímkoliv poradí či pomůže a rád si popovídá. Třešničkou na dortu jsou výborné snídaně, které se často obměňují a nabízí lokální produkty. Vřele doporučujeme!

This is an amazing property with a hospitable owner/operator and his staff from beginning to end. The property is very well taken care of and feels like home. It has a pool. There are many custom touches. Kitchen/dining area looks out to the ocean. Our bedroom was comfortable with a great large mattress and pillows. Bathroom was nice. We also had a lovely balcony. Breakfast was served with love and care by Ofelia. Paolo is a great host who provided valuable guidance. Highly recommend this B&B that is centrally located on the island.

Sehr stilvolle, gepflegte Unterkunft mit gigantisch großen, bequemen Betten. Gastgeber Rui kümmert sich liebevoll um alle Wünsche der Gäste und gibt jeden Morgen beim wunderbar bereiteten Frühstück mit viel frischem Obst (eigene Bananen!), selbstgebackenen Kuchen und Marmeladen nach einem Blick aus dem Fenster (Wolken? Nebel? Sonne?) die besten Ausflugs - Tipps für den Tag. Da er so ein sympathischer und gewitzter Gesprächspartner ist, mag man sich manchmal gar nicht losreißen....

Amazing place, we will go back! Perfect stay at Quinta dos Bravos. Rui is the best host we ever had, always smiling and always helpful with tons of good tips for visiting the island. He also speaks many languages (we heard excellent English, Spanish, Italian and French, not sure how many more he masters 😀). Amazing bedding, 2 meter large bed with super comfortable mattress. Daily and impeccable cleaning !! Beautiful garden with swimming pool. Delicious buffet breakfast with homemade pastries. And to not spoil anything, wifi works very well 😊. Thank you Rui for this wonderful stay !

8/10 Very good

My Quinta does Bravos stay
The staff at the hotel were excellent, very informative and willing to help me with any queries I had, my only negative feedback is that the location is a little out of the way from any restaurants or bars, the nearest restaurant is around 2 miles away and bar a mile away, would highly recommend hiring a car, it's around 15 euros by taxi to get to Ponta Delgada which seems to be where the nightlife is, much cheaper by bus which is around 1 kilometre from the hotel. The facilities were excellent as were the rooms, if you plan on self catering then there is everything you need and a Spar supermarket around 10 mins walk down the road, I highly recommend.

Wat een warm en vriendelijk onthaal door de gastvrouw. Unieke locatie, rustig gelegen, nette verblijven, lekkere ontbijtjes. Heerlijk eiland, accommodatie op een kleine 20 min rijafstand van de luchthaven, kortom centraal gelegen. Ideaal om alle uithoekjes van het wondermooie eiland te ontdekken. Een échte aanrader !
