Detailed Reviews
Run away from big hotels!!! The service gived in this hostel will never be finded not even in a ***** hotel. For me the luxury is a person like a Antonio that receives you with hospitality and love. He cooks an amazing handmade breakfast everyday with a big choice (savory, sweet, juices, etc). A good example of his love for costumers is that my dad is allergic to peach. The juice available was a mix of fruits, so Antonio prepared a natural orange juice every morning without my dad asking for it. Every morning, afer breakfast, recomended us places to visit in the island, restaurants and other activities. That's the best example of someone who loves his job and really wants people to feel comfortable in his place.
MUITO OBRIGADA ANTONIO ❤️

This is one of the best hostels I have ever been to in the Azores. Antonio was the sweetest host you will ever have. His breakfasts made me want to wake up early enough so I could have it hot. Slept so well and the bathrooms were really clean. I can not wait to visit Antonio and his beautiful hostel with amazing views.

The hostel was nice and the host Antonio and Lino were helpful and friendly. I had to give it 2 stars because they recommended a tour with Nuno where he was supposed to take us to see the lakes with a picnic lunch. He took us to a restaurant, and all these other destinations and boy did we pay. He blew my 3 days tour budget in 1 day. When I confronted Antonio about it, he said there wasn't much he could do and blamed it on us. It's a shame they recommend and standby a dishonest tour guide.

This place is awesome - it is a cozy, friendly, homey bed & breakfast, with unique hand-made eco design, 2 awesome hosts Antonio & Lino, great home cuisine, and all services you need (free wifi, fully equipped kitchen, hair drier, iron, tips for local travels and activities).
Very easy to reach from the airport (10 mns by taxi or Aerobus), Marina Lounge Hostel is basically in the city center, 3 mns walk to the marina (with swimming pools, cafes, promenade...)
Each room has original design, with unique wooden hand-made details, and nice holiday-feel colors. The common area has plenty of comfortable seats, and nice books to dive into, and of course a huge original dining table to host breakfasts and dinners.
In this b&b, you dont find just a comfortable bed and delicious food - but a small community of all ages and new friends. I fully recommend it!!

Antonio and Lino are the perfect hosts in their quirky boutique like hotel in the heart of ponta delgarda. We were given a fantastic welcome, ate amazing traditional Portuguese food, slept in the comfiest beds and enjoyed the crazy company of guests from all over the world. Simply an excellent all round place to stay.

What an amazing place! Great atmosphere, people, environment. The only way to get to know Sao Miguel!
My father and I arrived late on a Saturday night, I was already excited due to the good reviews and kind emails from Antonino but what I wasn't expecting was to step through the threshold of the door and seconds later to have a glass of wine in my hand a traditional Portuguese meal on a plate in front of me whilst being surrounded by amazing people from all over. My father and I looked at each other and instantly agreed to extend the 2 days we had booked to a full week. Lino and Antonio sorted us out with cheap car rental and spent a good 20 minutes explaining what there was to do on the island and where the less tourists ridden spots were.
As a hostel it hits all the markers:
Comfortable beds, amazing breakfast, great people and advice, well priced, great location. But it goes beyond to great an atmosphere of warmth where a glass is never allowed to be empty. ;)
Marina Lounge made our stay!!
Thank you so much Lino and Antonio for the long wine filled evening chats and coffee filled day planning!
At this point I should add that I travel a lot with work and stay in a lot 5* hotels around the world on these jobs but this small Hostel in the Azores beats them all.

I spend a week in Marina Lounge hostel. I stayed in shared room of three beds. The atmosphere in the hostel was very welcoming and cozy. The hostel has been decorated very nicely and the room were I stayed was comfortable too. You can here the noises from the street but it didn't bother me because I slept with earplugs.
The breakfast was good and it was great that the fruits and vegetables, as well as tea and coffee, were available all the time. I also joined the dinner when Antonio was cooking and that was really good :) We also go together to visit the hot springs and one night they asked me to join them to dinner at one restaurant.
Antonio and Lino were friendly and helped me to find a car to rent and also they have good tips about the whale watching experiences and hiking trails and they gave for me good tips of places to visit in the island.
Like I said when I left; you made my holiday! :)

Hello. It is quite easy. When you arrive at the airport , you should go to the tourist information- on the right side . You can buy there a ticket for an orange public bus to Ponta Delgada. A return ticket cost 5 eur in June 2015. The driver will ask you the name of the hostel and will take you directly to the door of Marina Hostel.
Of course there will be also other tourists and it is the driver who decides who will take first to his hotel.
Have a nice stay in this beautiful Island.
