We booked our stay at Roca Mar as part of a package through a travel agency, so we weren't really sure what to expect. The hotel entrance is rather bland, and we walked through a narrow path open to the outdoors twisting around to find our room. At first, the place felt a bit quirky. But quirky explained itself when... More

The location is excellent (1/ not too far from the airport and the Capitol of Madera - Funchal, 2/ on a high rock with fantastic view). The style of the hotel is a bit oldfashioned, the swimming pool and space in the "concret beach" are too small. The breakfast at all not adequate for the four stars hotel! The dinner... More

The Roca Mar proved to be good value for money and allowed the relaxation we were looking for at a reasonable price. We stayed in a timeshare studio but there were no sales teams to distract from the location. It is an easy 10 minute drive from the airport and only a little further into Funchal. Driving is easy and... More

The hotel is conveniently situated about 10 minutes from the airport by car and similar distance to Funchal. Local buses cost 1.75 euros to and from Funchal and the hotel runs buses to and from there during the day. The hotel is clean and tidy and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, going out of their way to provide... More

The hotel is a bit old fashioned but the setting is nice, with a lot of space for sunbathers. The pool is much smaller then the fotos suggest, but the ocean is directly accessible if the surf waves are not too strong. Our room was spacious, everything clean, well equipped and we had ocean view without having booked it. Every... More

The hotel is very old fashioned. The breakfast was terrible in both quality and variety. Awful coffee and juices. The swimming pool is very small and shallow. We stayed in a studio with a large veranda and a kitchenette. The room and the bathroom was very spacious. The ocean view was limited when seated since the wall was very tall.... More

This is a nice hotel, can't say wonderful, but don't have many complaints other then the food at breakfast wasn't great. However, the hotel is very clean, and most of the staff are friendly, with good English. Plenty of spaces to sunbath, however the hotel is a bit out of the way from the town Funchal. There is a free... More

We stayed the first week of July 2008. We booked the hotel on booking.com (a great site that provides clear information) at half the hotel's own prices - 385 euros (£315) for 1 week B&B with a balcony and full sea view. We booked flights on Expedia with TAP Portugal for £222 each – this was a quality flight with... More
