Antillia Hotel

Sao Miguel is an amazing place and the Antillia hotel was an excellent base for our explorations of the island. Restaurants, museums,the harbor, other meeting points were all walkable. Also, breakfasts were great - very good value.

This place was really fantastic! The check-in is a bit late, but has a large waiting area on the 1st floor with plenty of sofas. The pool bar is just around the corner where you can grab a bite and refreshment. Great place. I ll definitely stay there again.

Antillia's facilities - pool, spa, fitness center - may put this in a 4-star category, but our room definitely was not at that level. I booked Antillia through an Azores tour operator and I trusted their judgment on this being a 4-star hotel, based on a wonderful experience we'd had in Terceira last year. I was expecting something comparable. I don't know if we were put on the "package traveler" section of the hotel - we had to take two elevators to the lobby area and were some distance away - but there was no coffee maker or kettle, no mini bar (despite a listing of items on the desk), no toiletries aside from a body/hand/hair gel, and despite asking for a double room, we were given twin beds. Which were pushed together, but made up separately. It's not the same. I was surprised when I saw housekeeping staff leave a room with a kettle, so maybe some rooms have a coffee/tea-making setup. Breakfasts were sumptuous but were not included in our rate. I know that's an issue for the tour company and not the hotel. The best part of our room was the balcony. The room was clean and tidy, but no frills. The reviews calling this a luxury hotel - I'm not sure where that comes in. I joked to my husband that it would be easier for someone to get their legs waxed at Antillia than to find a cup of coffee : ) Check out Apito Dourado down the street for a great meal!

Really nice hotel, very walkable. Tiny room but nice and had a view of the water. Restaurant was decent and nice to hang out there by the pool after a long day. Staff were friendly and helpful and allowed us an early check in which we were very grateful after an overnight flight. Would stay here again for sure!

Beautiful hotel. Stayed here as our first stop on our honeymoon and it was a great first hotel. Rooms are VERY small (the one we got) but they do have larger suite style rooms. Hotel staff are very friendly and helpful - we were lucky enough to be able to check in a bit early after an overnight flight which we were very grateful for! Pool area is really nice and great after a long day of exploring. They have free parking if you are renting a car. Hotel is a bit out of the way from many other more tourist hotels but we found the location to be good. Would recommend.

For the first time travelling to Azores, I booked months in advance and the rates were excellent for my needs. The staff are amazing and extremely helpful, especially the receptionists. The hotels' location is in the perfect area to walk amongst the city. The view from my hotel room is stunning every single day despite the weather conditions. Watching the sunrise and sunset every day and night with a huge mountain behind the main city brings lots of peace and tranquility when having moments like those. Everything is close by and it's not that difficult to navigate around. I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who comes here! Mayn people speak a good amount of English or just enough to converse. The food variety is delightful and very tasteful.

We enjoyed staying at Antillia. Our room was very clean and spacious. We had a beautiful view looking out to the water which was a total plus. We enjoyed being able to sit by the outdoor pool and grab a bit to eat at the pool bar. Our couples massage was amazing and a great way to start our vacation. Being able to access the spa on-site was a lovely perk.
