Pestana Bahia Praia Nature & Beach Resort

My family and I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Pestana Bahia Resort in the Azores Islands, and it was an unforgettable experience that exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. The resort itself is a stunning oasis, nestled amidst the lush, green landscape that the Azores are famous for. Our accommodation was spacious, immaculately clean, and equipped with all the modern amenities that a family of four could need. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep after each day's adventures. What truly sets Pestana Bahia Resort apart, however, is its exceptional staff. Every member of the team was friendly, helpful, and genuinely dedicated to making our stay as enjoyable as possible. In su

The rooms were spacious, as were the bathrooms. Pool & beach accessibility was lovely. The front desk staff was polite & helpful & aided us in 1 restaurant & 1 activity reservation, both of which were very helpful.

Food was great, the pool was perfect for families and there were many family friendly extras such as bouncy castle and live singing and dancers. The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. They also recommended a visit to a farm Quinta da Parodia which was an amazing experience for young children . Highly recommend.

The BEST location on the island, on a cliff above a wide bay with direct access to a black, volcanic beach. The hotel is a bit old-dish so too expensive for the facilities but 10/10 for the location. We had the junior suite with sea view which was very spacious, had very comfortable beds and an amazing sunset view. Spacious grounds to walk around. Good breakfast with Azorean pineapple, local cheeses, local baked goodies like bolo levado - a sweet English muffin and queijadas. We slept very soundly with the balcony door open to the sound of the waves and we wish we could have stayed another day just to relax in its surroundings. I also loved the Castelbel bath products and the huge, fluffy towels.

The hotel is situated in a picturesque place, boasting a huge green territory, private parking and a beach entrance. The room was spacious enough for 3 people, with comfy beds and a nice balcony. We arrived on Christmas day, and the hotel restaurant was open, while everything else in the vicinity was closed, so we enjoyed a nice dinner. The staff is welcoming, friendly and very helpful. A small sauna was definitely a bonus after long hikes.
