Very disappointing parking situation, 10e a day parking or driving up and down the road trying to find public spot.. NO WIFI!!!! What do you mean there’s 0 free WiFi access in any areas of the hotel
Wouldn’t be as big of an issue but there’s also very little mobile network connection, therefore use of Data was ever limited..
Breakfast - is okay, you could tell a lot of items are stored and reused days later (pastries, fresh fruits)
Pool is okay but sunbeds are uncomfortable and you can’t get a towel in morning (10am…)
Hotel management could easily make this in a 5* property with just basic additional amenities and being less greedy with add ons..
Overall for a supposedly 4 star hotel it’s more like 3.
However
Staff are quite nice and helpful
Rooms are crazy spacious (probably double what average same price hotel will get you in Portugal)
Location is good, a little further from city center (about 75min walk) but in front of a nice empty black sand beach

When we arrived at the hotel late, we received a beautiful welcome and were checked in no problem. Slept well and next morning went round to discover the hotel surroundings. The hotel is located in the most amazing setting over looking the atlantic ocean with breathtaking views. Lovely sandy and rocky beaches and great temperatures when we were there. The staff are so friendly and helpful and always happy to help. Breakfast and dinner staff were all amazing and the manager was very nice and ensured everyone was seated right and cared for. The food was amazing loved it each day and though not a lot for kids dining but by child who is a fussy eater had something to eat each day no problem from the buffet. The bread and cake selection was great. Coffee and tea was fantastic with nice big mugs. There is a cafe for lunch and drinks within the hotel premises or you can go for a short walk to cafes by the beach. The hotel is located on top of the cliff so there is a hill walk each time to and from the hotel to the beach but the beach sounds, nature walks and views are so worth the walk. There is a shuttle bus which is very helpful if you want to go into town and a bus stop just at the entrance of the hotel if you want to go for public transport. Also you can hire a car from the Hotel if you want. There is daily entertainment provided in the evenings. The pool is nice and big which my child loved. Overall, we loved it so much we felt sad leaving.

Cons We arrived late at night to a receptionist we could hardly hear talk due to a piano player playing in the next room. We fancied a cup of tea when we entered our room GUESS WHAT THE HOTEL DOES NOT SUPPLY Mini cartons of milk in the room. Now I have traveled a lot and when you get a kettle you get all the supplies to make yourself a cuppa. I was told the fridge is not cold enough to keep milk WHAT A LOAD OF RUBBISH. The hotel is not suitable for mobility issue's 2 steep slopes to front of hotel and from floor 10 steep slopes and many steps to reach the pool. The hot food selection both at breakfast and evening meal was barely hot and I never saw a member of staff checking the food with a food thermometer. SUPPLY A MICROWAVE. No supermarket nearby to purchase bottles of water etc Hotel situated to far from Funchal Pros Hotel clean and tidy Staff generally helpful Great Sea views Pool clean Plenty of sun beds Excess to Promenade good Pool bar ok Don’t order the Caesar Salad disgusting Local buses No 1 run every half hour to Funchal 1.98 euros pp Would I stay here again A differcult question as I would not return to Maderia too many hills unless you are a hiker. We did all the tourist stuff and that was great.
