We visited the Café Cascais in Capelas where the owner was extremely hospitable. Had a lovely evening at this fun restaurant with Manuel on keyboard singing (and us joining in). Good food, drinks and very nice people.
Good location for visiting other parts of the island. As the island is small, it was easy to visit numerous beautiful sites such as Sete Cicades and return to the hotel in the evening. Relaxed, tranquil environment with beautiful scenery.
shout out to a local hairdresser 5 minutes from hotel (don't know her name) who took care of me without any notice. Front desk recommended her. I was very satisfied.

Nelson was extremely helpful in allowing us to extend our stay due to flight cancellation.
Preparation of boxed breakfast due to early checkout was extremely thoughtful
Gardens were beautiful, but more help is needed for maintenance to enhance their beauty, can be an extreme asset to the hotel

We love Capelas.
We love Capelas. It's a little off the beaten path - more locals than some of the cities on the South Coast of the island. Since the island is relatively small - you can be just about anywhere in 30 - 45 minutes. Capelas is on the sea; driving 25 minutes we were hiking around Sete Cidades.
Capelas might not be for you if you are looking for a mall, lots of shopping or lots of restaurant choices within walking distance.
We mainly purchased groceries at the Continente supermarket - sort of a USA Target type store. Everthing from groceries, to Nike apparel, to homegoods is available.

Great place, full of nature and tranquility, far from the noise of Ponta Delgada. Moby Dick restaurant is a local hangout with good food, good bus connections and lots of supermarkets if you need whatever.
Beautiful oasis of calm. Watching the sun go down over the mountains in the evening from the terrace in our bungalow was magical.
Staff were really attentive and super professional. We’d been travelling around the Azores for a week so it was a perfect place to chill for the last few days of our trip.
The hotel is really well located for exploring the north of the island and close to amenities. Plenty of parking. Warning - Apple Maps takes you to entirely the wrong place. Use google maps!
That was an amazing stay! The hotel exceeded all of our expectations! The room was big and clear with the balcony to the garden. The hotel itself is really nicely arrange, very light and cosy! The breakfast was really great! Food was fresh and very good! The staff incredibly nice and helpful and now I know that I share a birthday with Cristiano Ronaldo :) I really recommend the stay and if I will come to Azores again I will stay there 100%!!!
Solar Pontes is a family-owned property located in Capelas. We found the location very practical to go to our hiking trails. It's very central. The room was big and clean, with a super comfortable bed, a big and bright bathroom and a large balcony. The property has a well-manicured garden with chickens and ducks! The staff was friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast with local products.
This was an amazing location. Booked initially by accident. The front staff was amazing during our stay and directed us to the local natural springs and sites. There's also a shuttle right in front of the hotel to and from ponta delgada. Breakfast was also amazing and there's even a sauna/ indoor pool
And gym. Very clean
Casa Amarela is situated in the beautiful little village of Capelas. the house is wonderful , very well cleaned and full of all comforts for your stay. there is a beautiful garden with a bbq area and the owner will suggestion you lots of places to visit during your stay.
we really loved it and we hope to come back!
The casa is spacy with everything you need in it. Only 15 minutes from the airport. Parking is just in front of the house. The incheck procedure on distance, maybe due to corona? Continente supermercado is on 8 minutes drive by car in Capelas. Friendly host, only spoken by phone. Cleaning once during our week stay.
Great property that is away from the crowds in Punta Delgada but still very centrally located in Capelas. Carlos was very helpful and was available to answer any and all question. Everything was clean. The view from the bedroom was amazing. Highly recommend.
if you like laid back - this is perfect for you, rustic and stylish, charming. it’s not a 4 star hotel, you come here to relax and be kind of back in time . we loved it, beautiful view, amazing breakfast, lovely owner who help us to feel at home.
One of the best locations to visit the Island.
The roads on Sao Migual are excellent.
The hotel has many facilities.
We had an apartment with a kitchen.
Big supermarket Continente in Capelas. (ca 2 km from the hotel)
The place and the view when you reach to the hotel was amazing. Nature itself with the hotel is something that you can´t define. The staff were super friendly.
