This place has a ton of charm. It’s a beautiful mansion once owned by Portuguese nobility. The location is great, near the ocean, just outside idyllic Maia, and less than half an hour from Ponta Delgada airport. Rodolfo was very hospitable, professional, responsive, and attentive to everything I needed. My room was spacious, sparkling clean and had a lovely private garden.

We were two couples traveling in the Azores and we spent five wonderful days at the Solar de Lalem. This is an old inn with an interesting history dating back to the 17th century. Rooms are large and each suite seems to be unique. The manager Fabio was friendly, helpful and available. We loved our evening glass of wine on the patio outside the lounge, and our server Inês was just delightful throughout our stay. Maia is a quaint little village beside the ocean with a couple of great local restaurants that we could walk to from the Inn and which we thoroughly enjoyed. There are terrific hiking trails surrounding the village and everything is very well maintained and safe. The local people were extremely friendly.

Solar de Lalem is a gem located in a small coastal village on the island of Sao Miguel in the Azores. It is an old manor house with a limited number of rooms. Our room -- actually a suite -- included a sitting room with a view out to the Atlantic, a separate bedroom, and a spacious bathroom. It is a short walk to two of the sweetest restaurants we visited in the Azores -- Fim de Seculo (awesome octopus stew) and Bar do Praia (the best triggerfish we have ever had in our lives) -- and only a short drive to a couple of others. The breakfast on the outdoor terrace was delightful, as was the bar which, while limited in its offerings, was a great outdoor venue for drinking some wine. We highly recommend it!

Beautiful old property, authentic and full of history. Nice garden, with cute tables to sit outside for breakfast. Rodolpho was the best host - always cheerful, quick to respond and really went the extra mile to help all the guests with their enquiries and recommendations. Thank you!

What an amazing place. So stunning, and such great people. Incredible history in the building too. Easy access to the rest of the island. Easy off street parking, beautiful gardens, and the breakfast and coffee are great. Highly recommend.

Cannot fault the historic character, location, pool and general ambience of this Manor House however we thought it was lacking in hospitality. On arrival we struggled to find an entrance and after trying two doors and ringing the bells, opening one of the doors and calling we had to phone to find someone. We were given a short tour but felt later that more information would have been helpful -eg location of swimming towels, sun lounger cushions, pool hours and history of the house would have been interesting. The tariff of costs for the rooms displayed in our room was a bit of a shock. We had no idea how much we paid for our stay here as it was booked as an island hopping package. We certainly would have expected far more for the advertised price including more than a basic breakfast (though add ons were available eg fried eggs for 5 Euros etc), higher quality picnic lunches and better quality bath towels.

Wonderful place, high ceilings, lovely gardens and views; there are multiple shared rooms including library, bar and pool/snooker table room. Very pleasant and helpful management and bar staff. Only ****** was the breakfast - selection was below par. I will definitely be coming
