The drawbacks of this hotel are (1) limited free parking (2) a location that’s a bit further from downtown amenities than some other options; requiring a car or using the convenient city bus (3) some slightly annoying cost management practices, e.g. locking the minibar unless a 200€ deposit was paid, providing only 1 pillow per guest (4) Pool access requires use of stairs, which might be a consideration for guests with limited mobility. On balance, a terrific place with terrific staff. We would definitely stay again. ##### Daren Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Eleni Jun 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities We liked the location, views, and facilities. The staff could have been a bit more informative upon our arrival about the hotel services, like laundry and housekeeping. We had to figure out some important information ourselves and take the initiative to ask. Also, the restaurant menu was slightly pricy, and our dinner not as delicious. Still, the (free) breakfast buffet had an appreciable variety of good food which we really enjoyed. Also, our room was rather big and comfortable. ##### Eleni Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### malber Silva Oct 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ricardo at the Front Desk was outstanding. ##### malber Silva Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Not Provided Jan 12, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### quiet place for relaxing very quiet hotel except the thundering of the waves (which we liked) ##### Not Provided ### 6/10 Okay #### Magda lizeth Jul 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel and the accommodations were very nice and everything was maintained well, however, the staff was extremely disappointing. They were not helpful at all and made us feel unwelcome. ##### Magda lizeth Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Alex Sep 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities Claimed to have sent VIP wine to the room and when confronted the staff wanted to double check with maid and we never heard the result. No luggage rack, heating iron, nor tissue paper. Really crowded breakfast. ##### Alex Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Lydia Jun 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Die Aussicht aufs Meer war traumhaft. Der großteil des Personals war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer war sauber, die Dusche bräuchte mal wieder etwas Aufmerksamkeit. Am Frühstücksbuffet gab es eine große und Wechselende Auswahl. Leider war die Qualität des Essens teilweise nicht so gut. ##### Lydia Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leonore May 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Mooi zwembad en uitgebreid ontbijt ##### Leonore Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Katharina May 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Angenehmes Hotel es war sauber.

A wonderful stay, big rooms with excellent view, friendly and helpful staff. Rented the hotel's electric car, very comfortable to drive and not that expensive considering you don't have to pay for petrol (or even charging). Covid safety ensured very well by the staff, a big plus for that! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 11, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I liked location. I didn't like that there was no tea and coffee added every day in the room when run out. You have to go to the restaurant or bar just to have cup of tea. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura Oct 19, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Die Mitarbeiter des Hotels leisteten in allen Bereichen ganz hervorragende Arbeit und haben alle meine Wünsche erfüllt. Vielen Dank dafür! Das war wirklich bemerkenswert. Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut, der Blick vom Balkon unglaublich schön und ich wäre gerne länger geblieben. ##### Laura Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 17, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities the location of the hotel is perfect for relaxing holidays, the view from the balcony is breathtaking. the hotel is very clean and safe. all staff is very friendly and helpful. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aneeka Oct 3, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### More like 4 star - highly recommend This is a lovely hotel to relax in. My room was spacious, balcony was massive and private (I think all the rooms have balconies but some balconies are smaller and less private, my room no. was 816). Very clean and nicely decorated. It's so close to the beach that you can hear the waves from the room which is heaven and if that's not your thing the doors are soundproof. Best view I've had in a hotel (just the ocean). It's about 15 mins to the centro by bus, the hotel has a free shuttle service and the bus stop is just outside with a regular service. There is a black sand beach in front of the hotel, really pretty. The food was good, varied. Restaurant near it is worth a visit. If you are covid cautious, this place is for you. They take it very seriously (e.g. disinfected my suitcase on arrival, disinfected salt shakers when setting the table etc.) and it sets a good tone in the hotel e.g. ppl don't get in the same lift. They take your temp at check in and having masks, gloves and gel is mandatory (they made me buy gloves as I didn't have any). I felt very covid safe here. The only negative was that the service wasn't great. Only met 1-2 nice people on the front desk and otherwise, I found the staff to be a bit abrupt, questions about activities were met with responses about QR codes. Professional but not overly hospitable. There are steep gradients to the hotel and pool/beach! Overall my stay was super relaxing and I would certainly stay again. ##### Aneeka Stayed 1 night in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 26, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Sehr schön gelegen.

The rooms are nice, spacious and clean and they all have a gorgeous terrace with spectacular ocean views. The amenities are nice, the pool area is clean and very well maintained. Breakfast was ok, coffee could be improved but good value for money overall. We had a very nice stay although the location is not the best (being situated at the end of Funchal) but this is what makes it a bit quieter. They do offer a free shuttle bus to Funchal. All in all, I would recommend it! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing location, couldn’t fault it other then air con for the hotter periods of the year! We went May and it was fine and 23 degrees - great weather. The room are huge and has sliding doors opening to sea and hear the sea view. Easy quick access into Funchal with number 1 bus which stops outside the hotel takes you there within 10 mins. The staff are lovely, so kind and friendly. The food at breakfast was amazing and dinner buffet was such great value for money. Would so go again! The pool is also so great little walk down and back up but so worth it! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 4, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities Very relaxing area. right on the beach.

Heureusement il y a de nombreux restaurant sympas aux alentours. ##### philippe Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### GLEB Nov 6, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Good hotel, excellent sea view from the room. Sandy beach, swimming pool, good meal. ##### GLEB Stayed 8 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela, London Oct 30, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Only a three star hotel but in my opinion it could be a four star. Fabulous uninterrupted views of the sea from all rooms and the restaurant too. Good breakfast buffet and very adequate dinner buffet with plenty of choice and good value. Far enough from town and other hotels, but with a good local bus service (half hourly). Beautiful good size uncrowded pool with access from there to the beach which though not private, is far enough from habitation to make it seem so. Good walks all around and a few little cafes , bars and restaurants within walking distance. Very friendly staff, large room with floor to ceiling windows and doors leading onto a good size balcony. I stayed for nine days and wished I had booked for longer From Funchal (about 20 mins on the local bus) I took a bus to Cabo Giro which travelled through some stunning scenery and some hair raising roads. I also booked an off road trip more into the centre of the island which was fun I will definitely be returning. ##### Angela Stayed 9 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 1, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quiet location next to the sea Veryu nice good value hotel. Food was ok but not that inspiring. Breakfast choices were good but the cooked was lukewarm much of the time. However overall very good. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in May 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Riviera Nayarit, An All-Inclusive Resort ](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-Marriott-Riviera-Nayarit.h70035775.Hotel-Information) > > [TURIM Santa Maria Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Turim-Santa-Maria-Hotel.h39013081.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Santa Cruz Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Santa-Cruz.h1376009.Hotel-Information) > > [Ports of Call Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Providenciales-Hotels-Ports-Of-Call-Resort.h68236.Hotel-Information) > > [Metropolitan Hotel Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Metropolitan-Hotel-Vancouver.h28178.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) > > [Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aYVR-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels.d179900.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel Riu Madeira - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Palace-Madeira.h4813351.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Cornwall](https://www.expedia.ca/Cornwall-Hotels.d10558.Travel-Guide-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) > > [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) > > [Wynn Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Wynn-Las-Vegas.h1184243.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Carlton Madeira Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Carlton-Madeira-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h14327.Hotel-Information) > > [Family Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Family-Hotel.0-0-d178315-tFamilyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [ Saccharum Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Calheta-Hotels-Saccharum-Resort-Spa-Savoy-Signature.h10225046.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ocean Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Ocean-Gardens.h2591201.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to New Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/del/vancouver-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Windsor (YQG) to Québec City (YQB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqg/yqb/windsor-to-quebec) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Kansas City (MCI)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/mci/winnipeg-to-kansas-city) ### Cars ### Activities > [Things to do in Honolulu](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Honolulu.d1488.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages ### General
