Piscina tranquila , espaçosa e com várias espreguiçadeiras. Pequeno almoço com uma vista incrível e com variedade de comida. Quem nunca esteve, que experimente!

Claimed to have sent VIP wine to the room and when confronted the staff wanted to double check with maid and we never heard the result. No luggage rack, heating iron, nor tissue paper. Really crowded breakfast.

Absolutely incredible stay!! This was our first family holiday abroad and this place was perfect!! The views are so amazing, hotel is immaculately clean, food at the breakfast buffet is amazing!!! SO much choice and it's all so yummy! Staff are so so friendly and welcoming, our daughter has adhd/asd and every member of staff was amazing with her. Location is perfect, there is a variety of bars and restaurants within 5/10 minute walk along the beach which makes for a nice trip out each time, the next fishing village is a beautiful promenade walk about 25 minutes/half hour away. In the other direction if you go through the tunnel you end up at even more restaurants etc We walked to the supermarket on the first day and its a bit of a walk but the buses are regular and easy and there's a bus stop right by the hotel if walking isn't your thing. Shuttle bus is so good though for going into Funchal!! Lovely touch fom the hotel. Swimming Pool is always very clean and the loungers next to it listening to the waves is like heaven. The dancers were brilliant too for the evening entertainment!! Overall we fell in love with this place and our daughter sobbed her little heart out when we left. We will definitely be back!!!! ❤️

The friendliest staff and amazing views helped make this one of our best holidays for a while. Had a change to our usual hotel at a recommendation from our travel agent. Very happy with the hotel. Wonderful welcome at reception with good explanation of the services available, how to access local transport and facilities. There is a shuttle bus service Monday - Friday which is a great asset. It’s a lovely walk from the hotel into central Funchal but in the heat it can be demanding so a one way trip using the hotel minibus made it easier. We opted to take the bus into town and walk back. There is an easy to use local bus in and out of Funchal and Camera de Lobos. Cheap and fast service- though we also walked to Camera de Lobos and back on one day which was a good way to work off lunch!! Currently the promenade walkway to CDL is closed but will be easy to get there on foot once reopened. Lots of cafe /restaurants along the walk to Funchal which give options for snacks and meals. Also a nice place at the top of the hill near the hotel, reception happy to book you a table. Breakfast options were very good, lovely fresh fruit and usual buffet options, can’t fault it. Price for renting safe key plus deposit so be prepared to pay for that, also deposit on credit card requested on arrival. ( cover for fridge/ minibar?) Lovely gardens on the walk down to the pool and beach. Staff in all areas very friendly and service is excellent. We enjoyed light lunch at the pool bar. Prices are competitive. We will definitely return here, loved sleeping with the sound of the sea each night. Thank you to all the team

This hotel is a must! It is out of the busy hotel quarter, but easy to walk into Funchal. There is an easy bus route into Funchal if you don't fancy the walk Free hotel bus shuttle Monday to Friday. The hotel view is the best I have ever seen, waking and sleeping to the sound of the ocean. The rooms are spacious and the beds comfortable. All the staff have been amazing and friendly. Pool area and bar are spotlessly clean overlooking the ocean. Steps are steep but manageable if you take your time. Unavoidable when the hotel is built into a cliff!! We were half board and was satisfied with the choice, maybe another vegetarian dish would be good. Great stay and I'm sure we will be back Thank you Orca Priaia
