All good, brilliant place and hotel with great food, and facilities. But we needed access to a firstr aid box one evening and not a single one could be found across the entire hotel. I ended up getting what I needed for an open bar in the town. This needs to be fixed.

We loved our stay here. We didn’t like the first room that they provided us. As it was just few steps away from the pool and you could smell the chlorine while inside and it wasn’t the quiet area obviously! And very exposed. Anyway, we contacted the reception and they kindly changed our room. We didn’t have the best view but better than the 1st one. The rooms don’t have ACs, we asked for a fan which was better than nothing. The room had a nice compact kitchen including fridge, cooking hob and kettle. The bathroom is good. Beds are comfortable but I forgot to ask beforehand for double bed instead of 2 single beds. The staff are very nice, kind and professional. Indoor swimming pool didn’t have a good air ventilation. It would’ve been better to have a nice fresh air down there. Outdoor Swimming pool is a bit small comparing to the size of the complex and the number of guests. Breakfast was good and fresh. Very nice cakes and different types of cheese. The coffee wasn’t good though. The area is absolutely gorgeous. We loved walking around checking the plants and trees and seeing all the butterflies, lizards and bees with the see view. It’s easy to take bus and go to Funchal city centre. However I think if you want to see more of the island in north, you need to hire car. Taxis and Bolt works good there. Bolt is cheeper though. We chose October for our trip as we thought it would be a bit cooler but was hot. We definitely recommend this place.

Would not stay at this hotel again
It was really uncomfortable to stay in a hotel room without air conditioner. I wished I realized it when I booked the reservation. Tried to change to a different hotel but wasn’t allowed. And since I had paid for the room in advance I had no other option but to stay.

I love and would return to this hotel every time. The property is absolutely stunning, the pictures do not do justice. The staff at the reception and throughout the property extremely friendly. The only mishap I had was at the main restaurant during breakfast where one of the waitresses thought it would be ok to harass someone while eating to pay immediately. Otherwise it was spectacular.

It was a shane that La Perla was not open. I think the Siddartha bar could serve light snacks in the evening as well as during the day. Otherwise our stst was a total delight from every point of view. Our grateful thanks to the splendid staff and of course the garden is a work of art!
