Beautiful hotel in the heart of everything. On the water and popular avenue. Very clean and hotel staff were wonderful and always helpful. Beds were very comfortable. I stayed in the apartment style room. Bigger than i expected. I had the pleasure of staying there in November. If I had to find a fault, it was that the hotel changed the air conditioning to heat because of the time of year. I’m Canadian so I still found the temperature hot and could’ve used air condition for my full stay. Minor issue. It would be nice to control when I wanted heat or air conditioning. However opening the patio door helped cool it down. Just had to kill some flies

This is our second stay at Gaivota Hotel with my family. We love the location, size of the apartment for our family with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a beautiful balcony facing the marina. All the staff is very professional, accommodating and friendly. We will definitely come back.

Lovely and clean in the heart of the downtown, across from the marina. Very busy (somewhat noisy) and walkable. Felt very safe in the area. Good sized suite that had a balcony that faced the marina. Spotless and the front desk staff were really helpful. Lots of restaurants within walking distance.

We stayed here with friends for 4 nights. The front desk staff was amazing. Every single one of them were very friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond everyday. The location of the hotel and the rooms were great. But I can’t say enough about the staff, they were superior. I would highly recommend this hotel. It is a nice boutique hotel with a good breakfast. There is a grocery store next door and many restaurant choices to walk to. I would also recommend taking day tours and not renting a car in the island.

The property is in a great location close to many restaurants and areas of interest. There’s a well stocked reasonably priced grocery store and several restaurants next door. You can sit outside and see the marina as you eat. The one bedroom unit we rented was spacious, clean, a comfortable bed, well appointed mini kitchen, daily restock of coffee pods and good water pressure which was appreciated after daily hikes. The complimentary breakfast buffet is a mixture of typical European and American items. There’s a vast option of bread and a few pastries. There’s a free a la cart menu with many delightful options. For coffee, there’s a latte machine and another machine where you can select how strong you want your coffee. For non dairy drinkers, they offer oat milk. I did see they had gluten free avocado toast for those with gluten issues. The staff, especially Rodrigo are exceptionally welcoming and helpful. The person who works the breakfast buffet was ready to help and was so kind. Oh try the local pepper jelly too. It’s sweet & a little spicy which was a nice contrast to the usual fruit jams. Overall, the hotel is an excellent option if you are looking for a well priced conveniently located hotel in Ponta Delgado.
