Stunning views from the balcony, brilliant staff, food was pretty good and served warmer than you often get in all inclusive, so that was great. Entertainment in the bar every night. Two pools and a jacuzzi. Rooms were large with comfortable seating and a large telly. Balcony is great. Just 2 draw backs, the beds are quite hard, and there are fans rather than air-conditioning, so the nights can be warm, but that is definitely a price worth paying! ##### Thomas Andrew Charles Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dario May 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities By the sea Quiet and friendly staff Food was ok ##### Dario Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Laura Oct 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Front desk staff Laura and Gabriela were lovely to deal with. Food was ok but could use more variety. Popcorn at the breakfast buffet?? Drinks were good but you needed an upgrade to get certain drinks made. Room was nice and clean but no air conditioning. Parking 15eu night. Free parking next door but hard to get a spot. Overall a nice quiet hotel with a beautiful view and close to everything if u have a rental car ##### Laura Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Zsolt Oct 5, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities . ##### Zsolt Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### YEVHENIY Jun 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities staff in reception was very helpful ##### YEVHENIY Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Sharon Sep 11, 2025 Lovely seafront location,unassuming rooms supply kettle and fridge but no coffe/tea etc.poor selection of warmish food.Drinks more sugar than alcohol ##### Sharon Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Oct 20, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Very peaceful and hotel was handy as you could do a walk on the prom ##### James Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark Oct 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent hotel with friendly staff, great food, good entertainment every night and in an ideal location right on the sea front.

Neither Hotels.com nor Pestana contacted us beforehand to advise us of this, so we had to sort out our night’s accommodation for ourselves. SHAME on you Hotels.com ##### David Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gina Feb 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Right on the boardwalk of Formosa beach.

Only one floor has AC. Out of 10 day stay, only 4 dishes out of all meals \[all inclusive\] were tasty. I'm used to GOOD Portuguese food! This wasn't! Outdated building. Shabby amenities \[ripped bathroom towels\]. Canceled scheduled activity after ppl showed up for swim fitness class. Open balcony gym located over dining room. So while eating, you can hear the person running on the treadmill because you are in thr same room. ##### William Stayed 9 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Nov 23, 2010 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Madeira first timer Hotel great , but problems finding it in hire car. No directions on website and is not well signposted. Local bus from the airport or a taxi much easier. Facilities very good - well worth 4 star rating. All rooms have sea view with balcony. Kitchenette spotless and has all items needed (except a corkscrew as we found) We stayed on B + B basis and there was a good selection of foods. Cooked food not always as hot as it might be, mainly due to people leaving off the covers. Good access throughout the hotel for any wheelchair users (and 2 lifts) Bar area very comfortable also TV area with reading materials . Themed evening buffets every night . We ate out so didn't sample this. Entertainment 6 nights per week seemed a bit limited as by the time we had been out to eat and came back, the entertainment had finished (by about 9.30) Hotel at one end of Funchal area and not much around this apart from a few bars/restaurants. Hotel courtesy bus into Funchal finished at 6pm so taxis needed after that. Walk into Funchal takes about 45 mins. Went to a dinner show at Casino and had taxi back - fairly expensive. (not late -- about 10.30) Guests were invited to presentation about holiday options and offerred gift for attending. Much longer than advised and seemed like timeshare although a bit different and called Vacation club. Went to presentation -- said no to offer but still got gift. (casino visit) Location of hotel only real issue. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Michael Dec 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Das Hotel ist dem Alter entsprechend, die Brandung ist ziemlich laut hat mich aber nicht wirklich gestiert weil ich gut schlafe .

Polstermöbel und Teppiche sehr schmutzig, Toiletten auch nach Desinfektion stanken stark nach Urin. Traumhafte Lage und meist sehr nettes Personal.Einzige Ausnahme eine junge Dame von der Rezeption und ein Zimmermädchen die als Ersatz am Wochenende ausgeholfen hat. Poollandschaft schön und sauber. Würde definitiv nicht nochmal buchen. ##### Ludovic Cristian Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melanie Natascha Oct 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wir waren das zweite mal in einem Hotel der Pestana Gruppe und wurden nicht enttäuscht! Das Hotel haben wir bewusst ausgewählt weil es etwas außerhalb des Zentrums liegt und direkt am Stand ist. Was die Beste Entscheidung war! Wir hatten eine Junior Suite im 7ten Stock mit tollen Ausblick, das Zimmer war sehr groß und wurde täglich gereinigt. Direkt vor dem Hotel sind Steine am Strand aber keine 2 Minuten entfernt ist toller Sandstrand. In das Zentrum ist es etwas zu Gehen (fast eine Stunde wenn man gemütliche geht) aber es gibt einen kostenlosen Hotel Shuttel, den wir oft genutzt haben. Auch die Öffentlichen Busse und der Flughaben Bus fährt direkt vor dem Hotel weg. Unweit vom Hotel gibt es ein großes Einkaufszentrum und Geschäfte, Restaurants, Bars usw. Essen und Trinken war vollkommen ok, wir hatten etwas Bedenken wegen der teils negativen Bewertungen aber das ist unberechtigt. Es war für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Wir hatten tolle 10 Tage und können das Hotel wirklich weiter empfehlen und würden das nächste mal wieder dieses Hotel nehmen. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7833e234-3ab8-4f0b-948b-16934af7f9b1-1761037358454.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3a5e08d8-f026-49ea-8268-65fd951d8185-1761037359055.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Melanie Natascha Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Marion Aug 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Super hebergement, propre avec un personnel tres accueillant ##### Marion Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valerio Aug 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Servizio eccellente e cordiale, personale gentile e sempre disponibile, intrattenimento perfetto, ottima posizione vicino alla spiaggia, una favola! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a2b74fa5-946f-47a4-92da-bc5c89347b9b-1755874655404.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/80c33a59-ea1e-4cdc-aa80-485cd3bc1472-1755874655462.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/81e33f61-cfa8-4907-a476-b63f2d329e72-1755874655579.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9f2a8175-9df5-4e65-a6e9-c038773b0ff9-1755874656056.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Valerio Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Savoy Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Savoy-Palace-The-Leading-Hotels-Of-The-World-Savoy-Signature.h32089418.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Oakville @ Bronte by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hotel-Suites-Oakville-Bronte.h424378.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Penticton](https://www.expedia.ca/Penticton-Hotels.d4135.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel Ocean Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Ocean-Gardens.h2591201.Hotel-Information) > > [NEXT - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-NEXT.h71119006.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Carlton Madeira Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Carlton-Madeira-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h14327.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Santa Cruz Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Santa-Cruz.h1376009.Hotel-Information) > > [ Saccharum Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Calheta-Hotels-Saccharum-Resort-Spa-Savoy-Signature.h10225046.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels.d178314.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [TURIM Santa Maria Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Turim-Santa-Maria-Hotel.h39013081.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Sheraton-New-York-Times-Square-Hotel.h87.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Madeira - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Palace-Madeira.h4813351.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Casino Park Ocean and SPA Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Casino-Park-Ocean-And-SPA-Hotel.h14349.Hotel-Information) > > [Calheta Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Calheta-Hotels-Calheta-Beach-All-Inclusive-Savoy-Signature.h1056570.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana CR7 Funchal](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-CR7-Funchal.h15737408.Hotel-Information) > > [Sé Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Se-Boutique-Hotel.h19531083.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Guatemala City (GUA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/gua/toronto-to-guatemala-city) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to London (YXU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yxu/calgary-to-london) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to St. George's (GND)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/gnd/toronto-to-st-georges) > > [Flights from Kamloops (YKA) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yka/yyc/kamloops-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Newark (EWR) to Ottawa (YOW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ewr/yow/newark-liberty-intl-airport-to-ottawa) > > [Flights from Manila (MNL) to Bangkok (BKK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mnl/bkk/manila-to-bangkok) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Tocumen (PTY)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/pty/montreal-to-panama-city) ### Cars ### Packages > [Norway Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Norway.d138.Destination-Travel-Guides)
