Quinta Do Martelo

"It was an interesting and great experience. It helped us understand and learn about farm life in the Azores. Gilberto, the owner is very passionate about his concept and we enjoyed being there. The food was excellent and very filling."

"A perfect stay at a unique property that allows one to experience the early island life, but still have modern conveniences. The property is very clean and well kept. The owner takes pride in his island heritage and this property allows you an immersive and educational experience without sacrificing amenities. Do not miss having some meals at the restaurant. I would highly recommend this property to all travelers."

"Nothing. Perfect stay."

"They very very nice and accommodated all our needs it was just for one night and we were in and out fast hopefully next time we came we’ll make time to do the tour and end it a little more besides that it was wonderful we all them the whole house the wood work it was just beautiful thank you very much"

"Nothing everything was wonderful"

"This is an amazing place, you must stay here if visiting Terceira! Whole village, including architectural, gastronomic, ethnographic and cultural evolution of the island of Terceira. You can see different handcraft workshops as they used to be, you can se farming, orchards, chicken, you sleep in different houses. At arrival you get a map and then you explore the village. It is amazing how every detail is made with affort. You are transported back in time, but keeping all the luxury of the modern times. Amazing breakfast and great traditional restaurant on site. Kind staff, nice rooms and pool. Top stay!!!!"

"Everything was amazing!"

"Like old small houses, recreate old way of living but with modern facilities. The restaurante is amazing and we had the best diner in the island."

"A bit like sleeping in a museum…"

"A very nice place, but it has to state somewhere that this is almost like a museum from the Azores about 100 years ago. The rooms was very nice and clean. The owner is a bit excentric, but very nice and will try to help you with whatever you need :)"

"Far from anything. No space to sit outside, so not very social. Pool wasn’t clean"

"This is a truly charming and unusual place to stay, comprising very traditional renovated cottages and larger units, all authentically decorated in the style of rural Azorena home from the 19th or early 20th century. All accomplished with a great deal of care and affection. We also enjoyed a traditionall rural meal in the restaurant, featuring all local produce. The swimming pool, although only modestly promoted, was actually excellent. With the exception of the comments made below, all the staff were fantastic and the traditional breakfast was excellent."

"Unfortunately we had a dreadful experience upon arrival. Our flight was delayed by more than eight hours so we arrived very late at night, at a little after 2330. Although we maintained constant contact with the property updating them of our constantly worsening arrival time, when we finally did get there, the owner had inexplicably given our room to another couple. We had booked a stand-alone cottage with double bed and he tried to persuade us to take a twin room, eventually offering us a double in a large shared unit. He was obliged to "evict" the occupants of our scheduled room the following morning and give us the room we had booked months previously, but we would have hoped he might have been more gracious when trying to justify his actions (he had no valid reasonf for doing this) and then in making (financial) amends to us. We were and remain at a complete loss as to why this happened, though the guests who enjoyed the room we had booked for one night of their stay (at no extra cost to them) told us they were very happy indeed with their "bonus night". For us it was the very last thing we needed or expected after the travel day from hell!"
