“Restful Residence”

Reviewed 16 May 2013 NEW

Very well maintained and appointed apartments in a lovely location by the sea. Just a couple of minutes from the Pingo Doce supermarket for your self catering needs but also very close to a large selection of restaurants in addition to the adjoining Porto Mare hotel restaurants. If you intend to self cater I would recommend taking some dishwasher tablets,... More

“So restful”

Reviewed 14 May 2013 NEW

This is my second year at the Residence. The apartments are very high quality with a full kitchen, DVD included (no additional rental cost there as in some places), safe and possibly the most comfortable beds and pillows I've ever slept on! We had a garden apartment which are an absolute joy as you can choose to sunbath in relative... More

“Fantastic”

Reviewed 9 May 2013

We stayed at the Residence for the second year running and were yet again blown away by the whole place. The hotel, rooms and reception areas are decorated beautifully and always spotlessly clean. The staff, from Reception right through to cleaning staff are all happy, helpful and seem genuinely bothered about each and every guests happiness. We travelled with my... More

“An excellent relaxing stay at The Residence”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

My friend and I have just returned from a week's stay at The Residence. We were in room 3908, on the ground floor, set in a lovely private garden area. The apartment was excellent. Everything you needed was in the kitchenette. We were only expecting a couple of rings on a hob. However we had a four ring hob, plus... More

“Brilliant again”

The second year in our time-share apartment at the Residence. From the pick up from the airport to check-out on the last day, and return to the airport, our care was faultless. No wonder people have been holidaying here for 10 years! We are looking forward to completing our 10.

“Didn't want to come home!”

Reviewed 2 May 2013

There's nothing I can add to the other excellent reviews. This is our fifth time in the Porto Bay complex, now as an owner in the Residence. Two weeks this time and I could have stayed longer. It really is as nice as the reviews say and you get the feeling that the staff really care about what they do.... More

We have just returned from a fabulous weeks stay in Madeira. The Porto made hotel was gorgeous. My husband is disabled and the hotel gave us a free upgrade to a beautiful apartment that was on the same level as the pool and the restaurant, which was just perfect. The breakfasts were amazing, the restaurant staff friendly and helpful and... More

Our week is in February, but last time we were able to visit that week we faced the flood that sadly killed so many local people and one British woman. This time we combined two weeks and went in 08-22 April '13. It was like coming back home but to probably more luxury than we have at home. We did... More
