My wife and I stayed at this gorgeous hotel from 7th to 14th May on a Thomson holiday. The hotel is fifteen minutes walk from Funchal town centre - not that you’d know it because the hotel is peaceful and has well maintained gardens We were warmly welcomed by the polite, friendly and efficient reception staff (who couldn‘t do enough...

Lovely hotel and staff are friendly but they did struggle with offering me proper alternatives to the meat & fish dishes (which my husband enjoyed alot) - I think the chef (who apparently worked in London for several years) needs to address this and management should offer a dedicated menu for vegetarians and not expect us to "make it up...

We had an enjoyable week at this lovely hotel in April. We chose it after reading the good reviews of it on Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed. The hotel is located in a suburban area some 10 minutes walk (downhill) to the Quinta Vigia gardens, overlooking the cruise ships in the marina. We often took a taxi back... More

We stayed in this lovely hotel over the Easter weekend and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking for an individual hotel with superb customer service. The staff were friendly and very helpful, spending a great deal of time suggesting places to visit and printing off maps and timetables for us. The facilities were excellent including indoor and outdoor pools.... More

This was our first visit to the island and we were very pleased with our choice of hotel. We have specifically looked for a smaller place, not being great fans of large hotel complexes. Although it is smaller, the hotel has excellent facilities and has totally met our expectations. What made it really special is the service, genuinely wanting to... More

It is a modern small hotel built on the Sao Joao estate, with beautiful gardens and views towards the bay of Funchal. We stayed in a junior suite, very... More
