Quinta de Nossa Senhora das Mercês

We had the most wonderful experience staying in this distinguished manor house. Everything was flawless ; the rooms, the decor, the spectacular grounds and surprisingly reasonable rates. The owners make you feel at ease and very welcomed. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anybody who appreciates such exquisite environment .

The Quinta de Nossa Senhora is a delightful place to stay on Terceira. It took us a while to find the entrance to the property, hidden in a curve, but we got a warm welcome by the owners of this beautiful old manor. The main rooms, furnished with antiques, offer enough space to relaxe for everyone if you don't want to sit outside enjoying the splendid view to the sea or spending your time at the infinity pool. As the manor has only 12 rooms, the place won't never be overcrowded. Only at breakfast time two additional tables outside would be helpful. Even if the indoor breakfast room is also very charming, it doesn't make fun sitting inside with everybody coming from outside and walking around you to reach the buffet. The breakfast service-lady is very attentive and discreet and you can get fantastic crumbles eggs by order. Only point of criticism is the size of the bedroom, which is really very small. You can't barely pass between the bed and a drawer for leaving the room into your private small garden. Unfortunately there is not table in the garden, only two plastic chairs. A small table would be very nice if one wants to sit outside in privacy with a glass of wine and a snack.
