The adults only portion is quiet and well maintained. No music played at the pool area, just the noise of the nearby sea. Breakfast was good and served at the scenic restaurant overlooking the water. The spa was beautiful and relaxing with views of the ocean from the Finish and Bio spa, with a Turkish bath also there. Yes, free hotel parking can be difficult to find as it is limited. Paid street parking was widely available for 0.40/hour 0800-1900. Our other complaint was that the pillows and sheets had a musty smell, as noted in other reviews. Not sure if it's how they dry the linens. Overall a beautiful property to relax at with good dining options within walking distance. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/70e35372-3e2f-439f-844a-a4b7abd01c6d-1758116504931.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b4bb29a4-235f-4396-8a3f-59835007c8da-1758116505338.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Joanne Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susanne 18 Feb 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very nice hotel.

Skip dinner in their restaurant - the food was just okay if not overcooked and there are delicious and affordable, local restaurants in the area. Great stay! ##### Lindsay Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### daphne 29 Mar 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities No parking in the resort, only 7 minutes away walking uphill, most uncomfortable with suitcases even if you dropped off the suitcases you would still need to walk the distance and pay. I dislike separate beds in a couples room Tough toilet paper No shampoo conditioner supplied, only a kind of soap 1 small chocolate bar in the room, for 2.5 euros, not fun or enough Receptionist quite unkind, makes no effort to be kind or friendly ##### daphne Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Sehajit 4 Aug 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was a disaster of a stay yo say the least, the first night of our stay the A/C was not working to which the staff response was that they will try to get it addressed the next day, the following night we come back to a pitch dark hot room with no electricity. Do not book this hotel ##### Sehajit Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### David 27 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Angenehmer Aufenthalt und gute Ausstattung ##### David Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trace 20 Jul 2025 ##### Trace Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 4 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Buena estancia La estancia ha sido buena, la habitación estaba limpia, el baño es de buen tamaño, sin embargo la habitación es más pequeña y falta sitio para poder poner maletas, una mesa interior... La piscina muy tranquila y con acceso a otra piscina con acceso al mar, aunque estaba llena de gente y niños. No pudimos disfrutar del desayuno porque tuvimos que irnos pronto y nos dieron una caja con desayuno para llevar, un poco escaso y sin ningún café. Los horarios de cierre de piscina, cena... son muy justos para un lugar de vacaciones. Aunque estuvimos bien, dudo de si volvería a repetir este hotel. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Peter 22 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Irian 31 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Fantástica estancia.

Chambre mignonne, mais petite pour madère et cette gamme de prix. Chambre payé à la réservation pas forcément respecté. « Parking » dans la rue pas top… intérêt du « spa » que je me demande également.

Lovely hotel with outstanding views. Beds were very comfortable and room well presented with balcony. Breakfast was good, with outdoor seating overlooking the ocean. But there is not much to do in the local area and it's a €20 taxi to Funchal, where there is everything. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1D113F52EEB47297353F0579CE2D4F6BA087CBCF1636883094292.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F37C1DE6A82C69C91D6FDA03008E306D6918C5861636883093454.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Adele Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 12 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A true relaxing spa hotel Excellent spa hotel, relaxing atmosphere, great spa and facilities, loved the breakfest by the sea.
