“My cousin & I chose this hotel as a base camp for hiking on Terceira because of its close location to Monte Brasil, the harbour & lots of restaurants.
All the staff were very kind, thoughtful & helpful. We were checked in by Fluberto, who gave us good advice for our 1st hike & Lisandra connected us with an amazing taxi driver (Vasco) who was bilingual, and assisted us with our late check out request. We met Jeff, the owner & his lovely dog (Whiskey)- you can tell he has put a lot of thought……
“We liked the suite room with the loft bedroom and two bathrooms, one up and one downstairs. The town also had a beautiful garden area behind the property. The location was also very convenient. Very nice staff.”
“The staff were very welcoming and accommodating. Breakfast was amazing and the rooms were very clean. The beds were also incredibly comfortable!
If we ever venture back to Terceira, we will for sure be staying at The Shipyard!”
“scenic views were amazing; lots of hiking available on the island, and lots and lots of great restaurants to choose from, both walkable in Angra, and even moreso if driving around the island”
“Un hotel molto elegante, forse troppo, con S.p.A. Personale molto gentile e disponibile. Buona la prima colazione. L’unico neo è la camera veramente piccola. Nel complesso, però, da consigliare anche per la posizione ”
“Everything was updated and clean in great location. Can walk to everything in town. Parking is on the street but on the side street found enough. Breakfast was nice with a lot of choices. They provided heaters if you need it. Very friendly and would stay again.”
“Very friendly and professional staff, top notch breakfast, outdoor pool is cleaned all the time, all premises well lit at night, the property is unique combination of modern amenities and historical building”
“The hotel is centrally located. It was one of the first hotels in Faial. It's a bit strange since there is a hostel on the top floor. But it is an excellent value and terrific hotel. ”
“Il posto è spettacolare, direzione molto disponibile ad ogni tipo di aiuto o consiglio. Capanna pulita e confortevole. Bagno pulito. Metterei un ripiano aggiuntivo in doccia per i saponi o gel. Cucina ben fornita. Molte ragnatele ma essendo in una foresta di banane è normale; credo basterebbe poco toglierne alcune tutti i giorni. Almeno in cucina. Comunque consigliatissimo per una vacanza spartana e dove trovare nuovi amici.”
“Maria is a sweetheart and ensured my stay was wonderful. The infinity salt water pool is a joy to swim in, grounds are lovely, property is classy and interior design exquisite. Prob the most luxurious place to stay on Terceira, yet the price is most reasonable. I suggest booking directly with Maria at geral at quintadamerces dot com. For those of us non native Portuguese speakers, Maria will happily converse with you in English. She and her late husband (2016) lovingly restored what was……
“Great property location right on the beach and close to everything (restaurants, shops, sites, marina….) even a restaurant on the premises.
Kind and helpful staff in the hotel and front desk is 24/7 open.
Would definitely return again.”
