We stayed at this hotel for a week. The rooms were great. Spacy, good beds, clean. Nice bathroom, seperate toilet. Balcony big enough for two. Comfortable lounge chairs in the public area with free use of internet. Great terrace with beautiful views, pool and surrounding garden. We didn't use the sauna or jacuzzi, but it was all for free.

We booked this hotel via a discount site at a great price for bed and breakfast and we were not disappointed!! If you like small friendly hotels in stunning locations this is the one for you, all the rooms have great views from on top of the 500 ft or so cliff setting but if you ask for a Funchal... More

All the members of staff were so happy to see you and so approachable and helpful. The hotel is clean and extremely welcoming, the rooms spotless & so comfortable, the roof... More

I spent 2 weeks in Madeira recently and thoroughly enjoyed my trip. The only downside in general was the beds/pillows in other places which to my taste were too hard. So after almost two weeks I found the comfortable bed/pillows at Ocean Gardens sheer heaven! The staff were all very nice in particular the lady who greeted me who gave... More

I do not mind hotels that have seen better days, but I found Ocean Gardens disappointing: The breakfast was the negative climax, with an enormous population of ants invading the water/coffee dispensers (see picture below). The location is neither fish nor fowl, though admittedly with stunning views and an impressive rooftop garden with pool. More

The hotel is located outside of Funchal which means a travel each day. Is easy accessed via bus No.39 Bus ( yellow ) in 15 mins., cost less than 1,50 eur with card. The buses are an amazing experience, up & down also, especially going into the mountains. You can reach the hotel from airport or return to airport using... More

You cold see all city covered in lights and nice, big ships in the port.That was worth it!!!!The hotel have their own bus that is free of... More

This was our first time in Madeira and overall it was an enjoyable one. We booked a superior room which was a mistake as it was quite small (it happened to be the smallest on the floor) and from what I could make out the superior rooms have a bay view instead of a sea view. I would have preferred... More

The view was spectacular ! Rooms are a bit old and bathroom might require some modern instalation, but there is nothing... More
