Everything was excellent. The ocean views are wonderful and the restaurant is extremely pleasant. The only thing to be aware of is that it is located on the other side of the island from the airport, although it is an easy drive.
The Lince Nordeste was a beautiful property. It was kind of out so if you are looking to be near more things, this wouldn't be the place for you. The town was kind of dead at night but the hotel was clean and they offered a very nice breakfast
Overall we had a good stay at this property. The surrounding area is beautiful and this property is very quiet. We wished more food options as well as the operational air conditioning in our room.
This is a property with nice views of the town and ocean. We enjoyed eating in the restaurant overlooking the coast. The indoor heated pool
is fairly small but nice and the sauna was relaxing with a glass wall with scenic views to the ocean. The steam room smelled bad unfortunately so we didn’t use it. If you have a swim cap bring it as you cannot use the pools without on but they will sell you one for a nominal fee.
Absolutely loved my stay! Renata at the front desk was so helpful and told me all the best local spots to see the best of Nordeste! The restaurant was amazing! All the staff there were so informative and happy! It had a Great buffet breakfast! Lunch and dinner was great! Very modern but nature inspired so I had a great visit! Pool was amazing! Sauna and Turkish bath also! Great views from the room!
We were very pleased with the esthetic of the hotel and the lovely and helpful staff members.
The breakfast was quite generous and a great start to each day!
It was a short walk into town.
Thank you for a lovely stay!
Favorite place we stayed on our trip and probably one of our favorite places of all time! The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and helped answer all questions we had. Our hotel room was so comfortable. Entire facility kept clean. We loved the pool area and spa services. And the food offered in their restaurant/dining area was always delicious.
The staff are excellent, the location provides beautiful views, and the breakfast is perfect to start the day. In addition, the rooms are a good size (similar to US hotels), clean, and well appointed.
I look forward to staying at The Lince Nordeste again in the future and will recommend this hotel to all of family and friends who are traveling to Nordeste.
Only issue would be the signage for people coming to the hotel, should have better directions on the sign out front to direct travellers to the parking area.
Nice and quiet place to stay, with a beautiful pool and nice spa facilities. Bed was a bit hard for my liking, but other than that a great place to stay!
We originally booked one night at this hotel but so enjoyed it we stayed two more! Fabulous restaurant, great staff and the indoor and outdoor pools were thoroughly enjoyed after some great hikes. One of my favourite hotels in Sao Miguel.
Extremely gorgeous property with hospitable staff. The restaurant at the hotel is phenomenal and we ate there almost every night of our stay. The rooms are a nice size and the beds were super comfortable. I think every room has a spectacular view of the ocean. Only issue we experienced was thermostat in room...its centrally controlled by the hotel and our room was a little on the warm side.
Excellent hotel and wonderful staff. Clean and comfortable rooms.
A gem in Nordeste and definitely worth a visit.
Breakfast was good, swimming pool and sauna were a treat, and dinner at the hotel was great.
A quiet, quaint town and we loved that. Close to beautiful views and awesome hiking trails. Convenient location to walk around town.
Overall a 5 out of 5!
Excellent stay. Very quiet neighbourhood. Beautiful view of the ocean. Very friendly staff. Good breakfast. Comfortable bed. It's a great place to relax and shut down from the world. Free parking was a bonus. Enjoyed a relaxing facial at the spa.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staff were great and friendly. The room was big and very clean with all amenities. The gardens were so beautiful and well kept. The breakfast was excellent and service was great. Easy parking. The view is magical.
On the downside we’re the outside pool and the spa. The outside pool tiles were very dirthy at the water level. The stairs on the deep end are lose and very unsafe.
The spa was being used as and indoor pool by guests and they were NOT WEARING the required he’d caps that we were tolled had to be worn. I reported this to staff but did not see anything being done about it. So we and some other guests were made to buy caps to use in the spa but others were not. Also, families using the spa with children were using inflatable tubes as if it were a regular pool. The water was cold and not the posted temperature and 80% of the jets did not work. There did not appear to be proper supervision of the spa area. This was very disappointing as the cost of a stay there is expensive and should be properly maintained.
I would think twice in staying there again as the outdoor pool and spa is one of the main attractions I consider.
