Hotels near Santa Bárbara Beach

"I’m so happy we chose to stay at Hotel Verde Mar. It’s a beautiful and modern hotel, the staff are so kind and helpful, the breakfast is delicious, it’s right by the ocean, and parking is free. They also have a separate towel service for going to thermal pools or swimming in the ocean which is convenient. The location is also so great, you can walk into Ribiera Grande for food, and there’s a grocery story 1 minute away. Also again the proximity to the ocean is so nice. The room is quite nice, our room had a balcony overlooking the ocean. I had been concerned about the bathroom having a window into the main room but there is a shade that can be drawn that fully covers it. When I come back to Sao Miguel I will definitely stay here again. "

"Wonderful, very unique hotel. Full access to a long beach where you can watch the surfers. Staff were wonderful and attentive. Also, great location on the North coast to do day trips! "

"Very friendly staff, great to have parking"

"A fab place between Ponta Delgada and Ribeira Grande. Clear instructions were given as to how to gain access. The accommodation was better than described, with a fully stocked kitchen apart from a freezer, but with a supermarket round the corner, that isn’t a problem. "

"We stayed at Moinho da Areia for three days and really enjoyed it. 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."
