You must stay here for at least a day when in Madeira
Overall best feature: the natural beauty surrounding the hotel, 5 mins walk to the valley observation deck Watch out for: the drive up the hotel is tricky, especially when it's foggy and/or dark. Plenty of parking is available. Rooms: spacious, clean, well-equipped Restaurant&Bar: wonderful, great food for the price, the local beer is fantastic Breakfast: there is room for improvement, but even then, it's only because it's 9.5/10. Wellness&Spa: you need to notify the staff if you'd like to use the spa, and it costs 10eur. This section of the hotel has great views of the valley, but the facility itself is not that special. The hygiene and order of the facility were 10/10. Staff: very helpful, professional, easy to communicate with.
Summary: highly recommended for at least 1 day of stay when you're in Madeira, the experience of waking up to the sunrise and watching the sunset in this hotel is impossible to describe with words
Bad experience definitely not a holiday experience
Swimming pool a paddling pool definitely not a full length to swim hotel no entertainment do not exchange currency Internet having to sign in everytime you leave your room it's just a hotel to only stay a night or two. Bad experience all there bothered about is the weddings they have no shuttle operating also rubbish bus service its beyond me how this hotel is called a holiday never again o I reported to my holiday company and all they could do was lie to them couldn't wait to be back home what a nightmare and that's the truth also was told to go to funchal to book trips out. Cafe on site expensive this hotel should take into account not everyone has a car wish I had never booked all it did was upset me and my friend
Disgusting toilets and charged too!!
Tat being sold in the shop… have the cheek to charge €1 per person to use the toilets only for there to be toilet paper all over the floor, hand towels empty and the hand blower out of action… don’t mind a small fee if things are okay but this was daylight robbery… everywhere else in Madeira we were charged €.50c to us facilities.. easy to say avoid but they’ve got it sewn up and will rip you off!

Great views and decent hotel
Hotel has Stunning panoramic views with quality traditional food, with good portions, especially the steak and skewers. It is close to trails and a viewpoint, ideal for nature lovers. A calm place, isolated from the hustle and bustle of Funchal. It has nice spa with indoor pool and jacuzzi. There is nothing closer apart from a cafe and mini supermarket next door. The breakfast was included with was adequate as standard full breakfast with hot drinks juices, selection of bread, fruits, cakes and cereals. Hot food like diff types of egg , beans, mushroom , bacon and sausage. No omelettes. Dinner should be prebooked for timings and has Good selctions in veg and non veg with very good portions and good value . Hotel is at a tricky place , driving from Funchal up the mountains. Rooms are spavious taxand very clean and housekeeping had been great and prompt. We loved the place and the staff very friendly. Hotel Looks Needing a make over to very modern look but considering its Location it is perfect to Make you feel Like living in heart of nature.

Gorgeous place to be
I cannot rate this high enough. The views were impeccable, the food was lovely, the staff were so friendly, the rooms were clean, the bed was comfy, the shop was so helpful (the staff in the shop were a bit rude in all honesty, but do not let that reflect on the hotel staff), the location was everything you need (do not rely on buses, hire a vehicle) the spa was so relaxing with added extras you can pay for. AMAZING value for money and I will be back as soon as I can.
