Our take
Apartments with kitchens, sea or mountain views and a 9.5 guest rating across 570 reviews make Alto do Forte one of the stronger self-catering choices I would suggest in Ponta Delgada. A saltwater pool, a spa with sauna and a fitness centre add hotel comforts. The mood is calm rather than lively, which suits a base for exploring São Miguel.
- Book an apartment with a sea view for the best vistas and a more memorable stay.
- Take advantage of the spa facilities, especially the sauna, for a relaxing end to your day.
- Explore the diverse breakfast options; the local specialities are a great way to start your day.

Why guests love itA kids' pool next to the saltwater pool is the detail I would point out to families looking at Alto do Forte. Each apartment has a kitchen, air conditioning and sea or mountain views, so meals and naps can follow the children's rhythm. Breakfast offers local specialities and options for dietary needs, and parents can take turns in the spa, sauna or fitness centre. Guests rate it 9.5 from 570 reviews, a strong score for a family base in Ponta Delgada.
