I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel during a trip with my wife, who is disabled, and we would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and welcoming place to stay. From the moment we arrived, the staff were polite, helpful, and professional, which made check-in quick, easy, and stress-free for both of us. The room was clean, tidy, and beautifully presented, with a comfortable bed, fresh linen, and a relaxing atmosphere that made it easy to unwind. There was plenty of space to settle in, and the room felt bright, calm, and well cared for. The bathroom was spotless, modern, and stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay. I also appreciated the thoughtful details, such as the neat layout, good lighting, and overall sense of comfort. One of the highlights of the stay was the excellent service. The hotel team were friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help, which made a real difference to us as we were travelling with accessibility needs in mind. They made every interaction feel easy and pleasant, from check-in to answering questions about the local area. We found that if we had any questions, it was always best to ask the staff, as they were happy to help and explain things clearly rather than leaving us to assume. Their professional and thoughtful approach helped create a warm, personal, and enjoyable experience throughout the stay. With the staff in mind, we would like to say a big thank you to Yvonne for all her help, kindness, and support during our stay. We stayed on an all-inclusive basis, which worked very well for us and added to the overall value of the holiday. The food was enjoyable and well presented, with a good selection available at breakfast. Everything tasted fresh, and there was enough choice to suit different preferences. The lunch menu was compact but offered enough variety for a two-week stay because dishes could be changed to suit individual tastes. This made it easy to enjoy different meals without feeling limited. The evening menu was themed, with seven different types available, which added variety and made each evening meal feel interesting. The dining area was clean, comfortable, and well organised, creating a pleasant atmosphere to start and end the day. The quality, flexibility, and all-inclusive option added to the overall enjoyment of the stay. The entertainment was also enjoyable and added a nice atmosphere to the evenings, giving us something pleasant to look forward to after dinner. The hotel is in a very convenient location, only around 15 minutes from the airport, which made travelling to and from the hotel easy. It was well placed for visiting nearby attractions, shops, restaurants, and local points of interest, while still offering a relaxing place to return to at the end of the day. At the back of the hotel, there is a wide paved path beside the sea, which was lovely for enjoying the views. The free shuttle bus to Funchal was another excellent benefit, making trips into the city simple and stress-free. The area around the hotel is quite hilly, but we found it accessible with a mobility scooter, which can be hired through the hotel. The hotel itself was very accessible, with two lifts that made getting around much easier. If you have mobility needs, I would suggest letting your tour operator know before you travel so they can inform the hotel in advance. This helps both you and the hotel prepare and makes the stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. We were also very impressed by the amazing work the hotel is doing for the environment and sustainability. It is clear they are making thoughtful changes to reduce waste and be more eco-friendly, which is something we really appreciated. Some of these changes may feel different at first, but if you have a problem or need anything, the best thing to do is simply ask the staff. They are helpful, understanding, and happy to explain or assist wherever they can. Overall, this was a comfortable, enjoyable, and great-value all-inclusive stay for both me and my wife. The hotel offered friendly service, clean and welcoming rooms, enjoyable food, and a convenient location. Everything came together to create a relaxing and memorable experience, and the thoughtful service helped us feel well looked after throughout our visit. I would happily stay here again and would strongly recommend it to other travellers.

Had a very nice 10 days at the hotel on a bed and breakfast basis , we had a superior sea view room which was enormous. All staff friendly and efficient. We arrived on my birthday and had a free evening meal in the restaurant which was a very nice gesture and much appreciated. Food was great, had 4 evening meals in the buffet restaurant. Although the hotel was full it never felt it , Maderia has so much to offer people ( us included ) and people are off out on the many trips available. My husband used the gym which he said was excellent .I had a great and very reasonably priced massage in the spa. I do think the sun loungers and umbrellas could do with replacing, but overall the views is a really great hotel. Shops and other restaurants all within easy walking distance as well. We will definitely be returning to Madeira and would consider a return to the views as it was a very enjoyable holiday.

We arrived and the staff at reception were really helpful at check in, we arrived later than planned due to flight delays and went to the restaurant that was due to finish serving however the delightful Paolo (one of two managers in the restaurant) showed my daughter and I to a table and sorted drinks for us. The buffet restaurant stock an amazing range of food choices, we found that there was always plenty to choose from. Both Paolo's were truly delightful and charming nothing too much trouble. The all inclusive cocktail menu was a little limited, so when we ordered off the main menu it seemed a bit confusing for the member of staff. Pool was lovely and I have to say there was lots of available sunbeds. All in all a lovely place to stay, rooms with side sea view was large and spacious. One very slight gripe was we were unaware of some building work going on beneath our balcony, appeared to be on a new terrace but that said we were away by the pool or out doing stuff so the only impact was first thing in the morning. My daughter and I had a fabulous time and would highly recommend staying at this hotel. 5*+ thank you xx
