Stayed at the pestana promenade in late april. Were very lucky as it coincided with a weather front from the sahara making it one of the hottest weeks in april. Have to say its probably one of the best 4 star hotels my wife and I have stayed in. The decor were very contemporary and overall spotlessly clean. Our room... More

Beautiful setting and well maintained. Our first visit was just after the opening so the gardens were in their infancy. Now established, they are lovely! Fantastic view out to sea from our balcony. Staff - Reception, Members Services, cleaners and poolside staff etc - friendly, helpful and efficient. Set about a 45-minute walk from the centre of Funchal so quieter... More

We stay here every year so do not have a great deal to add. The fabric and facilities of the hotel are being well maintained although the pool lighting that I mentioned last year still does not change colour at night and the missing palm tree beside the pool bar is still missing. So much for the management assurances then!... More

Lovely hotel--position, views, staff, facilities, food,all very good.Has indoor pool if needed. The only fault I had was the glass door in the bathroom knocked onto wc when opened inwards. The rooms with side (ocean) views look onto another hotel.

This is a wonderfully equipped Hotel, great Pools, Spa facilities and very modern. We stay here every year in June - and Madeira is a wonderful Island anyway. Very efficient bus service to Funchal town and plenty of Restuarants and shopping in the area. beautiful views out to sea. Never tire of being there.
