Fodor's Expert Review Pestana Bahia Praia
Praia de Água d'Alto, 9680-365, Portugal
Located about halfway between Ponta Delgada and Furnas, this expansive hotel close to the charming village of Vila Franca do Campo is chock-full of amenities, including tennis courts, a playground, and an outdoor pool area, to name a few. It sits right on one of the nicest beaches in São Miguel, Praia de Áqua d’Alta. A tad old-fashioned, the spacious guest rooms offer ocean or garden views; all include private balconies. The outdoor pool, though not heated, has a pool bar offering drinks, plus the restaurant includes an outdoor terrace where guests can dine all day long.
PROS
- spacious rooms with the right amenities
- extensive breakfast buffet
- steps to the beach
CONS
- not many attractions in the nearby area
- small and outdated gym and spa
- restaurant could be better
