Garajau Madeira Hotel ★★★

"Room with connecting floor to another room. Sharing rooms with neighbors and still being bothered by neighbors because we are using the hair dryer"

Hotel Riu Madeira - All Inclusive ★★★★

"Fantastic hotel! Location right by the ocean, free shuttle bus to the center of Funchal, ala carte themed restaurant, delicious food - varied and a lot of seafood, all inclusive works flawlessly - I don't know which sangria is better red or white. Rooms spotlessly clean functional large bathroom. In the evening, animations including Portuguese folklore - I greet Filip from the reception who stole the show :) Service at the highest level - If Madeira is for sure RIU. The view from the restaurant from the terrace is great. Not far from the hotel at the end of the boardwalk, you can go up the cliff off the trail."

Sentido Galosol ★★★★

"Great hotel! The room is fresh, clean, and what a stunning view of the ocean! Large territory, 2 pools, one right by the ocean. Parking is free, we always found a place (if you don’t arrive too late). Breakfasts are very good and varied, lots of fruits, different cheeses, and even smoothies. We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel! We will definitely come back again."

Inn & Art Hotel Gallery ★★★

"A beautiful hotel with a fantastic view if you book a sea view. Very friendly staff, very good food, we booked half board and were pleasantly surprised every evening. Clean and attractive rooms. The bus stop to Funchal is within easy walking distance."

Sentido Galomar - Adults Only ★★★★

"We loved our stay. Great views, facilities and above all service. So in our opinion a wonderfull spot to explore the island. The manta diving is a very cool option. Their swimming pools and sea entrances are amazing for snorkling . Nothing but love for Galomar Sentido."

Quinta Splendida Wellness & Botanical Garden ★★★★

"My wife and I booked this hotel considering it was a 4 star listed on Jet2’s website with a spa. This was a honeymoon trip and we figured booking the Spa Suite would feel delightful! Especially given the complimentary thermal suite access for the entire 7 night stay. We booked on Jet2 with bed and breakfast access as a full package. We arrived around 5pm on a Monday and got checked in to room 2023. I’ll start with the good, the spa rooms are spacious! When we arrived to our room they had sparkling wine and a fruit platter for us waiting to congratulate us on our honeymoon. We were happy to have a spacious bath as a lot of resort baths are small. It was plenty of space for two! We were also excited for the view of the sea! Being in the hill, you could literally see the sea from your bed! The breakfast was very nice for European standards. Specifically the fresh local fruit and vegetables from the botanical garden is very unique. Our first day and last two days of the trip had fresh full avocados from the garden that we could enjoy as much of as we wanted! Since we booked a spa room, we had access to an à la carte menu which includes omelets as well as fresh squeezed orange juice and also cappuccinos that are made with fresh beans! Very nice! I would say if you weren’t booking a spa room and didn’t have à la carte then the juice machine and coffee machine there is very poor. Now onto the bad. When we got to our room and were getting settled we heard a hissing sound. We thought it was the pipes of the water or something and thought nothing of it. Around 10:30pm we were going to bed and it was dark as I was brushing my teeth an insect scurried very fast near my feet. We turned on the light to find a coach roach had come from the separate bathroom area with an enclosed toilet. I decided to open the door to the toilet room and turn on the light and two more rushed from there! We called reception and they sent someone and by then the coach roaches had gotten up into the cracks of the wood of the sink and were hissing! We then realized that was the hissing we had heard earlier in the day! We were told this is totally normal and not a sign of issues as we are stating in a botanical garden so coachroaches are normal. This was the beginning of justification for problems but at the time we were ok with a room change so we could go to bed. They moved us to a room next door, room 2022, which was a bigger room but more outdated than our original room. The bathtub had its water cover missing so the pipe was exposed! The shower area had its cover missing from the rainfall shower. The sink area had water damage around the faucets and the mirror and had rusted. Additionally the TV no longer worked and was older and we were missing the fan in our room which helped cool down the room since there’s no A/C. None the less, we decided to stay here and called reception and asked them to provide the smart tv and fan in the morning for us. The next day, we go"

Villa-Kasia Ocean View Studios ★★★

Hotel Royal Orchid ★★★★

"Hotel Review – Royal Orchid We had a lovely stay at the Royal Orchid. The hotel is beautiful, and our room offered a wonderful partial sea view with palm trees and the ocean in sight — truly relaxing. However, there is room for improvement, especially regarding breakfast. Many items were processed, such as canned pineapple and artificial juices, which did not meet our expectations for freshness and quality. The cleaningservice was was great, the overal service from receptuon was disappointing. The hotel enforces very strict rules, and the staff applies them even more rigidly. At times, it felt more like being in a school than on vacation. We would have appreciated a more customer-oriented and flexible approach, especially in a leisure setting. However we enjoyed our stay, the room and the spa."

Inn & Art Madeira ★★★

"Stunning little villas in a quiet location with very comfortable beds and a pool. We had the pool to ourselves on each occasion which was amazing. The owner was also really helpful and accommodating. We would definitely return to this location too as it was almost like we were in the countryside but it was near to everything. Some great little restaurants around too."
