"Excellent location close to beach, marina and all major sites. Room was small, but clean and overall comfortable. Nice breakfast.
Unfortunately, some noisy guests did not make our sleep great."

"The Vine was an excellent hotel in a great location. The staff were all friendly and helpful. I would particularly highlight Hermes, Carmo, Bernardo and Jorges in the bar, the restaurant and at breakfast. It was a shame that my room upgrade was not available but the room we had was still nice. The Vine is easy walking distance to the harbour, the old town and multiple restaurants. The rooftop pool, bar and restaurant are also a fantastic place to spend time. "
"We loved our stay at the Barcelo. The room was very clean. The king sized bed was very comfortable as was the sofa bed which our daughter slept on. There was plenty of room in our room which was the standard basic room for 3 people. We loved the shower as well. The breakfasts were amazing and we really liked how the hotel opened up onto the main street where you could dine. The rooftop had amazing views and the decor and service was fantastic. A couple of times the water bottle wasn’t replenished (1 bottle is free per night) but when calling reception, they quickly gave us one. We would like to come back and recommend the Barcelo which is also located perfectly for visiting Funchel. The staff were very nice as well. "
"This property is an absolute gem. It’s walkable into town but is set amidst peace and tranquility. The room was lovely and breakfast was excellent. Hope to go back again someday!"
"The hotel is right on the water. Its beautiful and clean. The pool and lounge area is clean and set up very well. Breakfast was wonderful. Everyone on staff was helpful and friendly. Excellent hotel!!"
"Lovely small central hotel . Perfect for accessing the old town. If you don’t need an outdoor pool and like to be close to town this hotel is a good option."
