This is a lovely hotel, the room is beautiful, tasteful, and comfortable. Unquestionably the most elegant and friendly hotel I've stayed in. Also, the staff are really kind, and helpful, full of useful advice in how to make the most of our stay, and happy to oblige in whatever way they can. We have eaten several meals, and not only is the presentation pleasing, but the food is delicious, a good range of dishes, too. I had a particularly good plate of perch in saffron sauce at dinner last night, and their homemade peanut butter is to die for. Thank for for a delightful week on this edenic island

We had an excellent stay here at Pastana Grand. Its a beautiful hotel with lovely gardens. The buffet food we all enjoyed and was thought the range offered was good. The restaurants were also very good and we had some great meals. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. I would most definitely have another stay here. Also are first time to Madeira which we think is a lovely country. So pleased with the holiday we had, just wish we was still there now.

Pestana Grand Ocean Resort Hotel, Madeira.
The hotel is run by scammers.
We booked a room for a day with a sea view, but they told us that it was not so (they even pretended to call an intermediary) and gave us a room with a view of the road, and for a room with a view of the ocean, they demanded 25 euros from us. Later, the site confirmed our information and tried to demand compensation from the hotel for us, but they, of course, refused. In addition, instead of cotton mattress covers, there were oilcloth mattress covers, like those in the hospital for people who cannot walk on their own. The room has an unpleasant smell, the bed is all stained, the pillows are rough. The food is poor, the cups are dirty. The room does not even reach 3 stars. I do not recommend it to anyone!

Rooms are little outdated but clean and have everything you’ll need.
Breakfast has many options and I bet you can find what you like.
Outside pools are bit cold but it feels good after long day in the sun. Indoor spa is warmer which is nice.

We visited Madeira in July and chose this hotel because it was recommended by relatives. It was a first class choice. The hotel sits in a lovely position with virtually every room having a sea view. The rooms are excellent, the staff are very well trained and incredibly helpful. The food is excellent with buffet breakfasts and evening meals offering a wide ranging range of options, so there is something for everyone. One of the best features of the hotel is the swimming pool area. The hotel sells itself as a resort and it's very large outdoor pool (actually two pools) are set in fabulous gardens with many recliners for guests to use. We never noticed them all being used so whatever time you arrive there will always be some available. As you can probably tell my wife and I were very impressed. We travel quite a bit and this hotel is definitely one of the best that we have stayed in.
