My friend and I visited this hotel through a suggestion from Saga staff. We had both suffered fairly recent bereavements and just needed a relaxing break in the sun and the all-inclusive package had some obvious attractions. We arrived towards 21:00, later than most people I suppose, but the hotel had gone to some trouble to arrange that we could... More

Hotel a little isolated but courtesy bus provided a good service. We have had better meals in hotels but the meals provided were of good quality and we didnt go hungry. I could recommend... More

This was our first visit to this hotel. The staff were friendly and helpfull especially the reception. We went on an all inclusive basis and on the whole the food was good if a bit repetitive,our only gripe was that the tea/ coffee was out of a machine. The rooms have just been decorated and so were fresh and clean... More

To start off on a good note the hotel itself was very clean, well laid out (dining room and bar area overlooking the seafront) with friendly and attentive staff. The location was excellent, right on the seafront, with great views from the veranda overlooking the beach. The rooms are excellent, and even have their own catering facilities! Food was clean...

I read many Trip Advisor reviews of this hotel before I went there, and I think many of the comments are either positive or negative depending on what the traveller is looking for. So I will try to be objectve so others can decide if it's right for them. This hotel is not "family friendly," in that there's not much... More

I've stayed in this hotel for my first vacation with my baby boy and it was splendid. They have a great pool, very nice staff, great room, nice shower, wonderful view. The food was amazing, great variety. The biggest advantage was free bus ride to Funchal. Highly recommended.
