Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a clean and nice room, large enough for 2 adults + 1 baby, though it might feel tight for a larger family. The breakfast is decent but lacks fresh vegetables and variety, while the evening ambiance can get a bit too loud for relaxation.
The hotel rooms are large enough for 2 adults + 1 baby, but I wouldn't recommend it for a 2+2 family setup. The rooms offer a nice view of the pool and the sea, especially on the top level. The service was very friendly, making me feel like part of a big family. The location, although far from the city and beach, was pleasant and lovely. The dining experience was really good with a variety of fresh options. The facilities were well-maintained and enjoyable.
The hotel is conveniently located near the center of Funchal, but there are some drawbacks such as room size and lack of variety in breakfast. Service was friendly but could be more efficient at times. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with some good and poor options available.
