Charming hotel close to Golf course. The garden rooms downstairs are a little bit dark and have no view ( no terrace or balcony) like souterrain...the terrace is nice and the service friendly. You need to have a rent-a-car behause it is far away from downtown and other dining possibilities...

Arrived back yesterday from my third trip to Madeira and third stay at Casa Velha. A warm, friendly and relaxing place with great service, beautiful surroundings and the perfect place to chill out. The first two times we booked through an agent, but this last time I booked directly with the hotel so as to enjoy an "Adventure" package. A... More

It was easy to be a guest at Casa Velha. Everybody is very friendly and seems to be speak several languages. A nice man was waiting for us at the airport and took us to the hotel. The hotel has peaceful and lovely surroundings with lots of flowers. We got a large room, with a large bed and a large... More

The pride and honesty of the people that live on the island is wonderful to experience. Casa Velha do Palheiro is the icing on the cake. Luis Emanuel is a class act. His crew is well versed and trained... More

However, the outstanding feature is the location set between a very picturesque golf course... More

This small and comfortable hotel with a spa, indoor and outdoor pools was a happy find. The staff are efficient and extremely helpful and the food was mostly very good. The gorgeous gardens were surrounded by a beautiful golf course with views out to the Atlantic, so just walking about the grounds gave plenty of exercise even for non-golfers. With... More

The hotel is in a very quiet area above Funchal and the rooms are very nicely decorated with period furniture. The position against the golf course is superb and has a tea-room at the bottom of the wonderful garden. The breakfast and dinner were excellent and the extremely friendly staff just made for a perfect holiday. We will definitely be... More

Located in the hills, 15 km and 500 m above Funchal, this is a haven of calm. A Relais et Chateau property, it was first built in 1804.
