We had an amazing 2 week stay at Island Bliss. It is really well maintained hostel, if it can even be called that. It felt more like a hotel! The kitchen is fully equipped with anything you can think of. The room & bathroom are cleaned daily making for a very comfortable stay. Very central & free parking lot nearby. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Sao Miguel!

Upon our arrival, the front desk was really welcoming and explained everything about the full shared kitchen. If you want to do your own meal, I have my flight the next afternoon, and I was wondering about my luggage. They offered to keep my luggage in a safe place, and I could explore around and pick it up after that. was really generous of them. The location is exceptionally close to a bakery and a small grocery store, and an 8-minute walk from the shopping centre (even Google Maps said 16min). I really recommend it, if you like hostels, and the staff are really friendly and helpful with my questions and concerns.

El recepcionista fue amabilísimo, nos enseñó las instalaciones y propuso actividades que hacer en la isla. Estuvimos solo una noche (de paso) pero es un lugar donde me podría alojar más tiempo. La habitación (nº1) y el cuarto de baño eran amplísimos y muy limpios, la cama muy cómoda y grande. El comedor-cocina compartidos muy bien equipados, todo súper nuevo y moderno. ¡Lo recomiendo 100%!
