"Unser Aufenthalt in der Ferienwohnung war super. Sie war sauber und entsprach den Bildern. Die Naturpools sind fußläufig und auch der Norden Madeiras ist von dort aus mit dem Mietwagen super zu erkunden. Der ausgeschriebene freie Parkplatz ist derzeit eine Baustelle und man muss Glück haben mit Parkplätzen vor der Ferienwohnung, ansonsten ist aber 2 Minuten zu Fuß ein bezahlbarer 24-Stunden Parkplatz für die Natur Pools (6€/Tag) nebenan. Alles in allem ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt und sehr zu...

Top Funchal Hotel Reviews

Pestana Royal All Inclusive Ocean & Spa Resort

8/10 Good

"Nice property. Only thing that would have been good to have is more Portuguese oriented entertainment since we were in Portugal."

Allegro Madeira - Adults Only - Member of Barceló Hotel Group

8/10 Good

"The reception staff were excellent and always very helpful. Loved the rooftop bar but unfortunately didn’t use it as often as would have liked, as the weather was not always kind. The hotel is in a great location for The Lido and public transport."

The Editory Garden Carmo Funchal

4/10 Poor

"Would not recommend. My reservation was for 2 Twin bed rooms but upon arrival, front desk said their information was for 2 Queen rooms. I had a hard copy of Expedia Reservation but there was only one twin room available and the other room was a Queen. The room smelled like raw sewage. The breakfast room had one coffee machine and the line was 10 people long during breakfast. "

Dorisol Estrelicia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was a great location for us with walkable access to downtown Funchal (about 30 minute walk). Good restaurants nearby and downtown. Hotel is up on a hill (about 70 meters of considerable incline), so that was unexpected, but for us did not create an issue. Parking is limited at this property and we were not aware originally that you could reserve the parking ahead of time and for an additional fee (7 euro per day). The staff were very helpful however and offered off site parking to us nearby for the same fee. Again, not a problem for us, but may be an issue for some (150 meters away from the hotel). Rooms were standard (we did not have a balcony), but this is not a very new property, so there is no air conditioning in the rooms. Good breakfast with good options and fresh bread and buns everyday. The property also offers dinner options on site, but we chose to eat outside of the hotel. This was a good stay and we were thankful that when our flight got delayed we were able to stay at the hotel and our room for an additional night. The staff was helpful and even provided us with a kettle for our room (we did not bring our own as we came from Canada)."

Enotel Lido – All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"The food at this hotel makes up for all the shortcomings! Obsessed with buffet food and Italian restaurant was great too. The only downsides of this hotel are the only two small elevators for the whole hotel and lack of entertainment. Other than that spa is good, massage is amazing. The covered pool is everything. Overall recommend this hotel "
