Best bits first: Staff are excellent. Public areas, pools, leisure facilities, all modern and well maintained (excellent roof terrace). Rooms spacious & comfortable, fridge, safe, big mirrors, great views (from the front, balcony a bit small), good shower/bath. 30% off bar 'happy hour'. Useful Tui activity list.
Food: recommend the tasting menu on Saturday nights, good value as wine included. The quality of the buffet is variable (never great) with a good range of choices and never too busy.
Location: there are a few good bars/restaurants/cafes within a 10 min walk. The town is an easy 30min walk or €6-10 taxi.
I enjoyed my stay here and would recommend it.

I was incredibly disappointed with my stay. Despite its four-star rating, the hotel was far below expectations. The rooms were outdated and poorly maintained, with worn-out furniture and outdated decor. The cleanliness was also a major issue. To make matters worse, the hotel had a terrible smell that lingered throughout the common areas and even in our room. The amenities were also lacking, with a small, outdated pool and limited dining options.
I would not recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Madeira.

The hotel itself looks good at first glance; a swimming pool, a sauna and a lot of other possibilities to spent time there, are available. But as soon as we saw our room, the first positive impression disappeared. The room smells moody, the fridge was not working, the water in the bathtub was also not working quite right. We found a lot of rusty places in the bathtub as well. And the location is also not the best, it is not central, it is surrounded by a lot of other hotels. At least the City Center of Funchal is near, but you cannot reach it by foot so fast.

Staff were brilliant, rooms were nice on the ocean view side. Hotel was lovely, also clean, not in a bad spot as your always either going up or down on Madeira. All down hill to Funchal or the Lido. Get a bolt back. Would definitely stay again.

A lovely hotel with amazing facilities. The spa is lovely when the weather is not so good and the pool area is a quiet, relaxing area with lots of beds and umbrellas available. We booked bed and breakfast but ate at the hotel buffet for our evening meal several times - you can get a discount the more days you pay to eat here. The food was amazing - so much choice. Location is great and you can walk into the centre in about 25 minutes. Hotel staff were all very friendly. Rooms are spacious and clean but do need updating. On arrival our fridge didn’t work and the bed sheets were marked however staff rectified these problems very quickly. Good range of daytime and evening entertainment activities available if you want to take part. Would definitely recommended this hotel as a great stay for a city break or relaxing summer holiday. 🌴
