Ribeira da Janela Holidays from £904

The Perestrello has recently been refurbished and our room on the 2nd floor of the annex was lovely. The bed was comfy, the room had plenty of storage/hanging space, a good size safe, small refrigerator and quiet air conditioning. The bathroom was spotless with a walk in rain fall shower. Our room had a balcony which got the sun until early afternoon. We used the pool in the garden as well as the one in the adjoining (by a short bridge) Miramar. The gardens and pool areas are really well cared for and maintained. Breakfast is served in a separate restaurant in the Miramar which has a lovely terrace. There is a freshly prepared hot food option together with an extensive range of cereal, rolls, cheese, meats etc. There are several good restaurants within easy walking distance. The hotel has underground parking at €15 per night. All the staff we meet couldn’t have been more helpful, friendly and welcoming. Our only reservation was (for light sleepers) there was some traffic noise in the late evening/early morning. Highly recommended.

Aircondition wasn’t as cold as we would have liked.

I had a fantastic stay. Only criticism was with the spa. The steam room wasn’t operational when I paid it a visit even though it was within the stated opening hours.

Beautiful location on the ocean.

Wonderful rooms- the 2 bedroom villa has a powder room on the main floor, multiple terraces and balconies and a lot of space. Absolutely felt at home- full kitchen, easy to drive to or take a cheap uber to Funchal (typically $7-10). Would stay here again, especially good for families or groups of couples, you have the space you need for privacy and plenty of space to be together and play games, eat meals, etc. Property responded quickly to questions or any issues.
