We really enjoyed the bus tours although we did rent a car as well. We did 2 bus tours and they pick you up at the hotel. The beach close to the hotel is more of a cement area. Not much to see around the hotel. The bar/pub down the road does serve local dishes at a very reasonable price. The white bean dessert is phenomenal. The hotel is not in the hub of the island and it is truly dated. The hot springs are something to see and lunch was fabulous - we did this by bus tour. We also toured the north side of the island via bus. Tea factory was interesting. We did spend a day in Ponta Delgada on our own but that is more of a walking day. There is a museum, a wine tasting tour and some great places to eat in the city. We had an absolutely great time. The people are super friendly and food is wonderful not to mention the weather is great and the landscape is so green and lush.

Niente da dire sulla pulizia del bagno, le camere degli appartamenti sono spaziose.

As with all the islands it is very useful to have an own car to be able to travel around. I'm not sure if there is any public transport, and it is definitely not near the airport (about half an hour drive) If you want to be near the airport I would suggest staying in Ponta Delgada.
