The location of this guesthouse is right center in the city, and it has both a reading lounge, pantry and balcony for those looking to relax or work. The staff were also friendly. We had luck in having the available room at the highest floor, overlooking the marina and Pico. Definitely would return and stay here again.

Very nicely designed house. Has everything you need if you want to cook. There is a little bakery around the corner. Kayaks to use if you wish. Tiago walked us to the accommodation from the Naturalist base and gave us loads of recommendations for things to do in Faial which was extremely helpful and allowed us to get the most from our short stay.
Featuring free WiFi throughout the property, Porto Pim Bay is located in Horta, just steps from the beach. All apartments include a flat-screen TV.

A wonderful hidden island for people who like the silence, the hiking and the mountains. Beware that the supermarkets have few things.
Azores are expensive to live, because of few available homes and the prices raise up.

Loved the old city...however, construction was taking place which made getting around by car a little confusing. Loved walking around the waterfront and seeing the famous marina as well as the artwork created by mariners. Shopping in the local stores was a good experience with prices that you don't feel taken advantage of. Shopping in the city's Mercado was also a nice experience. Trying new restaurants around the city was also a good experience. While there, rent a car...best way to get around as public transportation is not regular or abundant. Also, try to visit the neighboring island of Pico on the ferry and spend a few days there...lots to see.

Island more quiet than Sao Miguel, felt more centered around the sea. A good mix of sea and land. A few good walks along the shore or around a caldera or inland. Unusual landscapes. The roads are very good compared to Sao Miguel.

We have now visited Horta 13 times in eight years, and will continue to visit in coming months/years. For a small city in the middle of the North Atlantic, Horta has a very welcoming feel, and is an ideal base for people wanting to visit the central group of Azorean Islands.
It's easy to walk around, and the rest of the island of Faial is accessible through day tours, e.g. with Azores Experiences who we would highly recommend. There are whale and dolphin watching trips from March - October, together with walking tours, Caldeira descent (which requires a formal guide and cannot be done alone), and a visit to the volcano and interpretation centre at Capelinhos is a must.
There are a good number of excellent restaurants (Atletico, Medalhas, Genuino, Taberna do Pim, etc.) and the Oceanic bar and restaurant (their barbecue is superb) to try locally caught fish and local beef. For a good value breakfast or lunch, there are plenty of small cafes (e.g. Cafe Silva, behind Peter's Cafe) which offer great hospitality.
If the weather is good and you fancy a relaxing day, there is also the beach at Porto Pim, which is used regularly by visitors and locals alike.

Nice little layd back town with astounding views of the islands Faial and Pico with their different and mystifying volcanoes, over the ever present calming ocean sights and sounds. Friendly locals serve all kinds of traditional and popular dishes and snacks, and offer quality lodging depending on your wishes and wallet. With a rental car, taxi or public transport it's easy to visit interesting geological, natural and cultural locations spread around the island. There is a lot of time and space there to come to yourself or interact with the local community.
It's a great flat very near the centre, you can easily walk to the marina. The place is spacious and has a private parking which was great. Sarah is a super great host and helped us with everything. Check in was really easy. The place was clean and light up. Just next to the beach of Pim. The place is modern and refurbished. We also had some coffee pods there which was great and washing machine pods as well which was handy. A great place to stay if you are in Horta.
Beautiful 3-bedroom apartment in an exciting location with views of Porto Pim Bay. Convenient to walk into town and to various activities and restaurants. Comfortable living space and bedrooms. Excellent kitchen and bathrooms. Very responsive booking office and onsite staff, always proactive and ready to help with anything we needed. Wifi and TV were great. We loved our stay and highly recommend this apartment.
The best place I stayed on my trip to Azores! The building is beautifully restored and maintained, hosts are so helpful, shared kitchen was clean, stocked, and organized, and location great for exploring the city. They are also conscious of the environment and offer easy composting of the food scraps and excellent coffee without wasting plastic. You will love staying here.
We loved casa da Japoneira! Such a beautiful place with an amazing garden. And the staff were amazing! We accidentally left something in the room and they were so kind helping us get it back. During our stay we used the bikes. It was a nice ride along the beautiful south coast, to Horta. (A bit up and down but doable). We would definitely stay here again!
Beautiful and very spacious apartment downtown Horta, one block from the marine. The host met us there and helped with the luggage.
All new, wonderful kitchen very well equipped. We were welcomed generously with basic ingredients and fruits. Large bathroom, washer and dryer!
There was no problem finding parking in the main avenue.
Great place!
This is a great place to stay in Horta. The location couldn't be more central to all the nice places. Always found parking right under the apartment. The check-in process was smooth. The room was spacious and stocked. I would highly recommend asking for a sea facing room on the 2nd level from which you can see the ocean and Pico on a clear day.
Everything was perfect, the lady at the reception which was very sweet, the super modern and comfortable room, the common and fully equipped kitchen and living room with an amazing view on Porto Pim and Monte da Guia, the nice touch with the free coffee all day long.
Really, the best stay in the Azores for us ! With a great price for value.
Thankyou! I had a wonderful time in Faial, Staying at Casa da Baía! I had the Jellyfish room which overlooked Horta marina, central for most things and a wonderful veiw across the bay to Pico, The staff were amazing and so freindly, I would recommend this accommodation to anyone! Thanks once again! Harry Chapman.
The second of our Azorean honeymoon accommodations - Hotel do Canal is wonderful, with an ideal location, friendly and helpful staff, amazing and comfortable rooms and their preparation of our honeymoon surprise in our room was lovely and much appreciated! A must stay for anyone staying in Horta!
Good location very close to the harbor and 10-15 minutes by car to the airport. You can walk around Horta. Nice staff. Although the breakfast is not included they offer coffee for free. Big rooms with a lot of space, garden, living room and kitchen to share.
Great hotel for a stay in Horta. It has everything you would expect from a big hotel - Big rooms with comfy beds, clean bathroom, good breakfast, great service and more
We enjoyed the great views of the harbour and Pico Island
Perfect location - you can reach all you need in Horta walking, appartment is well equiped and Paul was always helpful in case of any problem or question. The house has small garden and it is on quiet spot.
Charming house with a lovely garden in a quiet neighborhood. Great resting sleep, tasty breakfast. Thoughtful hosts that care about their guests. Will come again for sure.
