I supposed I stayed out of season in Porto Moniz as this hotel had few guests and consequently I paid a bargain rate of just 43 Euros. This is a surprisingly well kept resort and I imagine most visitors were like me and there to enjoy the rugged scenery of the north coast, it made a perfect base for a nearby levada walk.
Our room was spacious with a sea view and wonderfully quiet at night, the only failing was that the cupboard I assumed to house the fridge was in fact empty. Breakfast was a very good buffet and I appreciated the real orchids that adorned each table. There was free parking right opposite the hotel so unloading and loading the car was trouble free. Also the hotel is close the aquarium which we visited and there is also a science museum, but it is the superb location and bargain price that I appreciated most.
