Staying at Reid's Palace was an absolute delight from start to finish. The moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a sense of timeless elegance. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the heart of Funchal, yet tucked away in a peaceful, scenic spot overlooking the Atlantic. My room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and offered breathtaking views of the ocean. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night’s sleep. The staff went above and beyond—always friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful with recommendations for local dining and activities. The breakfast spread was exceptional, with fresh local produce and a wide variety of options. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated. It’s not just a hotel; it’s a true retreat. I left feeling refreshed, inspired, and already planning my return. If you’re looking for a luxurious yet authentic experience in Madeira, this is the place.
The all-inclusive concept truly shines here—meals and drinks are included at various on-site restaurants, making it super convenient. My favorite spot was VELA DI CANALE, a cozy Italian café with great vibes. Their hot pizzas were served buffet-style, and if you time it right, you can even customize your own pie with fresh toppings—so fun and delicious! The pool area is spacious and perfect for relaxing under the sun or just floating around. Every detail feels thoughtfully designed for comfort and enjoyment. I’d absolutely stay here again—highly recommend for anyone looking for a stress-free, memorable getaway.
Staying at Five Design Rooftop by Storytellers in Funchal was a highlight of our trip. The location couldn’t be better—right in the heart of the city with two supermarkets just steps from the door, making daily errands super convenient. The rooftop terrace was absolutely perfect for watching the sunset; we spent evenings there enjoying the view and the cool evening breeze. The room was spacious, with a large shower and a very comfortable bed—great for a good night’s sleep. The cleaning staff did an excellent job every day, replacing towels and tidying up without fail. Communication with the host over the phone was smooth, friendly, and always reliable. Breakfast was decent, though after a few days it started to feel repetitive—same cheese and ham every morning. A bit more variety would definitely improve the experience. One minor downside: the sound from air conditioners across the street can be noticeable, especially if you’re a light sleeper. We got used to it, but bringing earplugs is a smart move. Overall, this place offers great value, fantastic vibes, and a memorable stay. Would definitely return.
Due to a flight cancellation, I ended up staying an extra day on the island and naturally chose this hotel again. I booked a smaller family suite—though labeled as compact, it was actually quite spacious. Two queen beds plus a sofa bed easily accommodated four people with room to spare. That unexpected extra day turned into pure relaxation: lounging by the pool, enjoying the sea views, and savoring delicious meals. The hotel restaurant prices are comparable to local dining options across the street, where there’s also a supermarket nearby. I picked up wine and snacks to enjoy back in the room—such a nice touch. The main pool is filled with seawater, perfect for floating with your head just above the surface. There’s also a second pool down a few steps, and if you’re confident in the water, you can even swim out into the open sea. It’s such a unique and peaceful experience—highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind in a beautiful coastal setting.
What an absolute gem! This hotel truly feels like a hidden paradise in Funchal. With just 42 rooms, it offers a personal touch without sacrificing comfort. Our room was spacious and inviting—featuring a plush bed, cozy sofa, writing desk, and a private balcony overlooking lush gardens. We were greeted with thoughtful touches: a fridge stocked with refreshments and fresh bottled water replenished daily. Breakfast and dinner were exceptional—varied, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The bar was a highlight too, offering small plates and tapas all day long, plus fun experiences like a Poncha cocktail workshop and a gin tasting session that added real charm to our stay. But what truly sets this place apart are the staff—every single one of them goes above and beyond. The front desk team was incredibly helpful, sharing local tips, restaurant recommendations, and even bus schedules. Restaurant staff, though busy, always had a smile and a friendly chat. The bartenders made cocktails with care and personality. Even the housekeeping team stood out—our room was immaculate every day, and the entire property looked pristine, from the pools to the garden paths. Both the indoor and outdoor pools were clean, well-maintained, and inviting—the indoor one especially warm and relaxing. After staying at many wonderful hotels worldwide, this one easily stands out as the best experience so far. I can’t recommend it enough. If I ever return to Madeira, this will be my first choice.
This stay was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, every detail exuded excellence—luxurious accommodations, impeccable service, and a serene atmosphere that felt like a peaceful retreat. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality and professionalism, making us feel genuinely welcome. Dining at the hotel’s restaurants was an absolute delight—the cuisine was exquisite, and the ambiance perfectly complemented each meal. I initially thought the glowing review might be exaggerated, but after experiencing it firsthand, I can confidently say: every word was deserved. A perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and charm. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable getaway.
Wow, we got upgraded to a better room upon check-in—what a pleasant surprise! The view from the hotel is absolutely stunning, with panoramic sea and mountain vistas. It’s super convenient too: just a short walk up a slight hill leads to restaurants and supermarkets, so you’ve got everything you need right nearby. The only downside? The city center is a bit of a distance away, but there’s a bus stop right outside the hotel, making transit easy. Breakfast was a bit underwhelming—mostly standard Western-style options with very few warm or hearty choices like soups or stews. That said, the bathroom amenities were decent, at least they came from a recognizable brand. Overall, this place offers great value, comfort, and a beautiful setting. Definitely worth staying again!
This hotel exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, Rita at reception was incredibly welcoming and made check-in so smooth. I was assigned a fantastic room with stunning views, and the nighttime scenery was absolutely breathtaking. The breakfast area overlooks the vast Atlantic Ocean—waking up to that view is pure magic. The breakfast spread was impressive, especially the selection of fresh fruits, which were juicy and delicious. Every detail, from the service to the ambiance, felt exceptional. It’s rare to find such a perfect blend of comfort, beauty, and hospitality. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Funchal.
Staying at The Cliff Bay - PortoBay was an absolute highlight of my trip to Funchal. The view from the room is nothing short of breathtaking—expansive ocean vistas framed by lush green hills, especially stunning during sunset when the sky turns into a canvas of warm hues. The location strikes the perfect balance: nestled in a quiet hillside yet just a short ride away from the city center. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, and the room itself was clean, spacious, and beautifully designed. It’s rare to find such a serene retreat with such great value. I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful yet luxurious escape in Madeira.
Staying at Pestana Grand Ocean Resort Hotel was an absolute highlight of my trip to Funchal, Portugal. The room was spacious and incredibly comfortable, making it a perfect retreat after a day exploring. Breakfast and dinner were both excellent—fresh, well-prepared, and full of local flavors. The location is fantastic: just a short walk from a great shopping center, ideal for picking up souvenirs or grabbing a quick bite. But the real gem is the view—uninterrupted ocean vistas from the windows, with waves crashing in the distance. I also took a day trip to the nearby cliff caves, which offered a stunning blend of natural beauty and adventure. Everything about this resort felt thoughtfully designed, from the service to the ambiance. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s a memorable experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and breathtaking scenery.
Nestled in a stunning garden full of lush greenery and trees, this charming boutique hotel feels like a peaceful retreat just minutes from the heart of Funchal. The property is small but perfectly formed—every detail exudes care and character. The staff go above and beyond with warm, attentive service that makes you feel right at home. Though the rooms could use a refresh, the views of the garden are absolutely serene and perfect for unwinding. I especially loved the two heated outdoor pools—ideal for relaxing on a cool evening. There’s also a cozy spa area for those seeking a little pampering. It’s an excellent choice if you're looking for quiet, comfort, and a touch of luxury without the crowds. The location is convenient, easily accessible by car or public transport, making it a standout option for a peaceful getaway.
This was hands down our most satisfying hotel stay yet. From the fresh and delicious meals to thoughtful safety features like non-slip flooring and emergency equipment, every detail reflects a genuine commitment to guest comfort and well-being.
