The all-inclusive concept truly shines here—meals and drinks are included at various on-site restaurants, making it super convenient.

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 Madeira Bright Star by Petit Hotels truly exceeded our expectations. Our room was fantastic—spacious, well-appointed, and featured a private balcony with lovely views. The bedding was incredibly comfortable, and having a coffee/tea station with a kettle right in the room made mornings so convenient. The location couldn’t be better—we walked everywhere during our stay, from the city center to local attractions, making it easy and enjoyable.

Breakfast was a highlight—rich in savory options with fresh bread, local cheeses, and eggs. While there could’ve been more sweet pastries, we happily compensated by enjoying a warm cup of coffee and a freshly baked pastel de nata on the terrace. It’s the perfect way to start the day.

Staying at Number 15 Ocean & City View Villas in Funchal was a solid experience overall. The apartment is spacious and well-appointed, with high-quality furnishings and a generous layout that feels both comfortable and thoughtfully designed. The outdoor area is a real highlight—perfect for soaking up the sun with panoramic views of Funchal town and the harbor. While the shared pool isn’t heated, it’s ideal for cooling off during the summer months when the weather gets warm. The location is just north of the city center, making it a manageable 15-minute walk into town. However, returning uphill can be tough, especially if you’re carrying bags or traveling with kids. We walked into town every day and took taxis back—usually from the rank near the Continente supermarket, which is about a 4-minute ride. Taxi fares varied between €5 and €8 even on the same route, so it’s worth asking for an estimate upfront. Also note: some drivers charge an extra €1.50 for handling shopping bags—something to keep in mind. The only downside was the barking dogs nearby, which were persistent on certain days and carried through the night. I understand Louise, the host, has been trying to address this, and I hope she succeeds. Despite that, the property offers great value, especially for travelers who appreciate a quiet yet central base with stunning views.

The accommodation was absolutely lovely and well-equipped, making our stay truly comfortable. The staff were exceptional—friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. Breakfast was outstanding, with a wide variety of fresh and delicious options that left nothing to be desired. Being close to the cable car station means it gets busy early in the morning, but that’s part of the charm and doesn’t disrupt the peaceful vibe at all. We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. It’s clear this place is thoughtfully designed for both comfort and authenticity. We’d happily return again and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a genuine, relaxing getaway in Madeira.

The rooms are elegant and minimalist, with plush bedding that made for a deeply restful night’s sleep. Breakfast was excellent—fresh local ingredients, including delicious Madeiran fruit jams that I’ll definitely miss after leaving. Staff were friendly and attentive without being pushy. Plus, getting into the city center via public transit takes just 15 minutes—super convenient. This place truly delivers on comfort, ambiance, and value.

My stay at Next - by Savoy Signature was truly enjoyable. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly and attentive service.

Whether you like fresh pastries, eggs, or local treats, there’s a little bit of everything. Overall, this hotel delivers excellent value and a memorable experience. I’d happily come back.
