We stayed in a corner room on the top floor. The views were magnificent with a wrap around balcony to relax and enjoy the views. Rooms are always very clean. Staff is great and very friendly. This is my fourth year staying here and my fifth stay. Highly recommend The Gaivota.
Clean, easy &smooth check in -check out process, very good breakfast with great choice. Didn’t try any spa or Turkish bath, so can’t rate. Very convenient cheap self parking across the street.
Property front desk person was very helpful with the check-in process and getting us checked in a few hours early. Person was also very helpful with helping us coordinate parking since there is no on-site parking for the hotel and you're basically having to park on the street. Front desk hotel personnel was very very helpful.
Property is ideally located. Clean comfortable. Staff is excellent and accommodating. I would highly recommend Hotel Gaivota to anyone looking for a reasonably priced place to stay in Ponta Delgada.
The hotel was super clean at all times, the staff was very friendly and helpful, and the included breakfast (both buffet and Ă la carte) was perfect every single day! We loved our beds and and the proximity to restaurants and shops.

The hotel staff are very friendly and the room was clean.
A great place to stay in Ponta Delgado
Hotel was right on the marina near city center. Great location. I was able to drop my bags early and was picked up for my tour there. The service is unmatched. I forgot several things and they were able to help me. In room coffee was amazing as well. When I come back this is the place I'm going to stay.
We booked this hotel in an emergency due to a late canceled flight. Everyone involved was super helpful. The room was spacious and clean. The spa was very nice. All staff are friendly and courteous.
Great hotel if you’re traveling with a family. We were five people. Has 2 bedrooms and a third small annex off the living room. Staff was very friendly and courteous. Would definitely stay here again.
We had a great stay! Breakfast was nice, rooms were very clean, very friendly staff, convenient nearby parking. Only complaint was that the AC unit made some weird noises at night, despite being off.

Everything was great: room, staff, easy parking. Will stay there again.
Front desk staff were excellent at check in and were helpful throughout our stay. Breakfast buffet was excellent including ala carte options. View from balcony was nice overlooking the harbour. Location was excellent in the heart of Ponta Delgada.
