We moved to this hotel from Ponta Delgada where we first stayed in highly disappointing Hotel do Colegio. If you travel to Azores you propably ar after nice ocean views, beautiful nature and quietness. This is what Caloura offers. It is situated appr. 25 km from Ponta Delgada, on a cliff looking to the ocean. It has nice pool where... more

Two couples who've known each other for decades, we picked the Caloura almost by accident off the internet. What a lucky find. By far the best value we've ever had. Getting There. Navigating your way from the airport, through Ponta Delgada onto the main highway east can be a challenge. Look for signs for Lagoa. Once on the highway, it's... more

Having spent the first week of our holiday in Ponta Delgada, getting to know our way around, we moved along the coast to this hotel armed with a hire car. You really do need a car to make the best of this location.. Our room was on the top floor of the west wing overlooking the bay and cliffs beyond.... more

Having just returned from the Caloura Hotel Resort I agree with many of the points in some of the recent reviews, threadbare carpet in one area, dated furnishings etc. However, in its favour, we found the location excellent, the staff first-class and we even slept well on the hard mattresses! We had breakfast at different times and never experienced any... more

Very, very quiet hotel, great views but not much going on. Food was ok by Azorean standards, but we found it quite dull and repetetive after a few days. The biggest problem we had was the beds. It was like sleeping on concrete. We have a firm mattress at home but this was taking firmness a step too far. As... more

We stayed at the Calora 2 years ago and on returning this years expected it to have moved forward, it hasn't. The hotel is still beautifully clean and maintained but it is showing signs of tiredness, thread-bare carpets in high usage parts of the restaurant and the chairs in the bar could all do with a good clean. The restaurant... more

The hotel has a fantastic view out over the ocean and the staff were extremely helpful. Whilst the exterior may appear a little dated and the rooms are not very modern, they are clean and fresh. Opening the curtains to the seaview every morning is worth it and most rooms also have their own private balcony. The hotel is also... more

If what you are looking for is a secluded, relaxing vacation, you've come to the right place! The hotel has stunning views from all the rooms, overlooking the nearby bay. The staff always tried their best to accomodate your wishes. It has a great pool, just remember that the weather can change 5 times in an hour pretty much the... more

This hotel is on top of a small cliff with a wonderful view.There is no other hotel nearby...in fact there is nothing really nearby. There is a good small beach a few minutes walk away but the village is up a steep hill with only a couple of restrauants one of which is basic the other doubles up as a... more
