I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is perfect for exploring Funchal, and the staff provided exceptional service that made my experience memorable. The rooms were spacious and well-appointed, although a few furnishings showed signs of wear. One downside was the presence of children that made it a bit noisy at times, especially around the pool, which affected the tranquility I was hoping for. Still, the breakfast was excellent, and the amenities were enjoyable.

The staff truly made my stay special with their warm hospitality and attentiveness. The breakfast was a highlight for me, with such a great selection to choose from every morning. However, I did find the dinner options a bit lacking in flavor, and the restaurant could have had more a-la-carte nights.

I had mixed feelings about my stay. The resort offers incredible sea views and beautiful surroundings, making it a picturesque place for a vacation. However, I encountered some issues with the spa booking and the reception's handling of my complaint, which detracted from the overall experience. The room was spacious and well-equipped, but the dining prices felt on the higher side, especially for non-timeshare guests.

Dining options were varied, but prices felt expensive for regular guests since many food ordering discounts were extended to timeshare occupants. The food quality was good, yet the pricing left much to be desired.

The facilities include three pools, which offer a great alternative for relaxation. However, the outdoor pools can be quite chilly, limiting their usability. The spa has potential, but my experience wasn't ideal due to the booking mishap.
