A unique, friendly and beautiful base in Madeira .
A warm welcome from the moment you arrive and friendly, happy staff throughout our stay. The room was beautiful, overlooking the wonderful gardens and hills. The rooms are turned down twice a day and are spacious and clean. Breakfast is delicious and service was superb. The bar staff were always friendly and attentive. It was wonderful to sit in such beautiful surroundings. Evening piano music and singer were fantastic. A 20 minute stroll into Funchal. We enjoyed a jeep safari, catamaran trip, levada walk and the cable car and gardens. All amazing and Rosie helped us to book everything and gave so much advice on places to go and things to see. We also took advantage of the couples spa morning. This was amazing value and the massage was fantastic! This was our first trip to Madeira and we will definitely come back and would happily stay back at this hotel. We’ve had an amazing week! Thank you so much.

Excellent for Rest and Relaxation
This hotel was the perfect place for us to have some much needed R&R for 5 days. The Staff are so helpful and pleasant, the food is well presented and delicious in the restaurant. Breakfast has an excellent selection. It is about a 15 minute walk to the seafront and shops. It is downhill going but uphill on the return, which in the heat of the day can be hard work. There are plenty of taxis and tuk-tuks about to help get you from a to b if necessary. The Spa was easily accessible and had a nice selection of treatments. Beautiful rooms, very spacious and each has a balcony with table and chairs. A bottle of still and sparkling water is provided in the fridge, which is refilled FOC when empty. Large bathroom with all toiletries and towels Highly recommended

Perfection
I travelled solo to this wonderful hotel and could not have felt more welcome. I had a huge room with a queen sized bed, sofa, and balcony. The staff (and the guests) were all so lovely and I talked to so many people and never felt like I was ‘solo’. Having read the previous reviews I knew the hotel would be nice but I had 2 concerns… (1) I’d been too busy to book trips in advance and (2) I was worried the restaurant would be all fish and I don’t much like fish! Neither was a problem… firstly Rosie is the resident client relationship manager who promptly booked me a variety of levada walks which were all fab, and gave me ideas and instructions for anything else I wanted to do. Way easier than me pre planning from home. Secondly, the menu was à la carte and had a mix of fish, meat and veggie options. The food so delicious that by the end of the week I found myself ordering fish and enjoying it! Beware that with 3 courses every night you will put on weight even with all the hills to walk! I never return to a hotel or holiday destination because there are so many places to see in the world, but this hotel has broken the rule. The day I returned, I booked to go back next year with my son, and I cannot wait.

Book this hotel!
This hotel has high standards in all that it does. It is situated a short walk from the main drag surrounded by a beautiful garden. The staff are simply wonderful, warm, helpful and accommodating. Our room was clean, large, well equipped with the largest bed we have ever slept in! Breakfasts are simply too good for words and the dinner menu interesting and enjoyable. All in all great value for money. Why wait? Book it! Based on our experience you won't be disappointed.

Amazing!
There aren't enough stars to give this hotel. It was perfect in every way. The staff were amazing, and couldn't do enough for you. Particular thanks to Katherina on reception, who was wonderful. We are already looking at booking our next visit. Thank you to all at the hotel, and look forward to seeing you again soon.
