Atlantico Apartments, hotel in Porto Formoso

Located in Ribeira Grande, near Praia do Monte Verde and Ponte dos Oito Arcos, Atlantico Apartments is a recently renovated property, featuring free WiFi, pool with a view and garden.

This is the best apartment we’ve ever stayed! 100% Recomended and we’ll return here for sure. The apartment with 5 star conveniences had everything we need: starting from the bathrobes and slippers till the products for breakfast from the hosts as we arrived late. That was very sweet. Peter and Zita are very nice and helpful. Thank you very much for the hospitality. And the best part of the stay is the garden with amazing trees and landscape. The view to the green hill and birds singing, this is a paradise :)

    Small typical north coast town, charming narrow streets.

    Small typical north coast town, charming narrow streets. It was great to see the breadman deliver the pao, as the residents waited on the sidewalks. Driving requires full attention, as cars are parked in either lane, so you use the brakes a fair amount. You are never bored driving on Sao Miguel! Praia dos Moinhos is a wonderful attraction for the area. Great vacation rental - Vivenda Xavier up the hill. Restaurant Marie Cheia was excellent. Glad we stayed in October, as heard it is very busy in the summer. Weather was quite warm some days, and the rain showers were welcome. Travelling along the lower coastal road is enjoyable, with stunning scenery. Jose and Wendy, Vancouver Island, Canada

    Loved the area.

    Loved the area. Close to highway to explore the coast, east or west and not far drive to get to Ponta Delgado. Excellent tea plantations nearby, we love Cha Porto Formosa and cute towns. The views are amazing everywhere!!!
