Quinta de Santana
About
Quinta de Santana in São Miguel (Azores) occupies Canada da Meca 4, 9600-160 Rabo de Peixe, Portugal, on the island's north coast. The property sits in Rabo de Peixe, a fishing town west of the capital.
Quinta de Santana operates as a guest house, and guests have given it 4.5 out of 5 from 524 reviews, a substantial record of satisfaction. Ponta Delgada, Furnas, Ribeira Grande, Lagoa, Vila Franca do Campo, Nordeste, Setes Cidades and Povoação all lie within the island's road network, so the guest house works as a base for exploring. Its website, http://qsantana.com/, carries further reference for a stay.
First-time visitors should expect a quiet north-coast setting rather than a town-centre address, with Rabo de Peixe's harbour nearby. The property's position between Ponta Delgada and Ribeira Grande puts both within easy driving distance.
Tea and pineapple are grown on São Miguel, and hydrangeas line the lanes of several islands in summer, so the landscape changes with the season. Summer is the driest and warmest season, and the sea is warm enough for swimming from June to September. Limpets, tuna, grilled fish and caldeirada fish stews are common, and most islands make their own cheese.
