We stayed there for a week in November 2011. The hotel is very comfortable, orchid fragrant,, modern, with very helpfull, always smiling staff. Rooms are spacious, perfectly clean, in the bathroom there are slippers and bathrobes- it's useful, as you can put them on and take the lift straight to the indoor swimming-pool. The food is delicious and waiters are... More

Really hard to find fault with this place. Clean, friendly, accommodating. Great food, great rooms, great service! The gravel around the pool area wasn't the best idea in the world, but I imagine that will be addressed before our next visit.

I stayed here in Aril 2012. The first impression was great ! The lobby was spacious and beautifully designed. The check-in staff was friendly and helpful. They were very patient when explaining about the hotel facility and providing restaurant advice. I also requested for a late chack-out of 3pm and it was granted without any fuss. The location is great.... More

We returned to the Melia at the end of March, having discovered this beautiful hotel last November. Once again, we have nothing but praise for the staff, the cleanliness and the comforts of this hotel. We had emailed and asked for a smoking room before our holiday and although they emailed back and said they would do their best to... More

Melia Madeira Mare is a quite new hotel on the Funchal scene, located in the Lido area. The location is actually the only thing I see as a little minus, since it is around three km to the city centre of Funchal. But I guess, if you book at Lido you're well aware of that fact... Great generously spaced rooms,... More

The upgraded suite we were given with a balcony overlooking the sea was delightful. The hotel was beautifully appointed, exceptionally clean, modern and comfortable. The breakfast buffet was... More

we have just returned from a lovely relaxing week at the Melia Madeira. The hotel was everything that we had read here before our visit - every single member of staff was friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble - directions and bus routes, extra towels etc! The breakfast buffet was fantastic and our room, with seaview, extremely clean... More

We stayed at this hotel in early Sept 2011. Great deal promoted on travelzoo uk, through hotelsbooked.com. Good price, pick ups all ran smoothly. The room was a side sea view room, all very nicely furnished in a somewhat dull boutique hotel colourways. Nice linen and lovely bathroom. The thing we most liked was the heated pool, and we had...
