Amazing experience! Staff is super friendly and professional. Food is yummy and even provided me with a surprise during my breakfast on my birthday 🎂... Great location and good transfer shuttle to/from airport. Also a female eagle (Beckett) was on display working to keep pigeons away.

We stayed here when our flight home from Funchal was grounded due to high winds. This was the second hotel we were moved to after being next door at the Pestana Royale. What we really liked about this hotel was our room and especially the view from the balcony which was the beautiful sea. What a view and what a lovely sound of the waves. So relaxing. The room was clean and well appointed and also had a sofa and small kitchen area. We were on the 7th floor. The restaurant was quite basic but all inclusive and had some snacks and drinks available in the day, as well as a small bar. It wasn't that well staffed. The food was also quite basic, like the kind of food you would eat at home rather than something you'd expect in a hotel. Some of the food combinations seemed a bit odd and the layout didn't make sense. For example the bread was at one end and the butter was at the far end. Breakfast was also quite basic and no vegetarian sausage options or soya milk available. Theres no indoor pool here. The outside pool looks good but it was too cold to go in during our December stay. There was supposed to be a gym but we couldn't find it. When we checked out, the receptionist very kindly offered everyone a picnic to take away, which was a really lovely gesture. The receptionist worked really hard, in what was a difficult situation processing so many people at once because of the flight cancellation and I appreciated their hard work. The hotel itself is down a hill and its quite a steep walk to the street above. There's a mall about 15 minutes walk away but to get into Funchal you'd need a bus or taxi.

The Pestana Ocean Bay All Inclusive Hotel offered us a relaxing atmosphere and beautiful ocean sunset views. My wife and I had a great time there. We spent 7 days there. The food was fresh and delicious. The drinks were good. We especially liked the white wine. The service was also great. Our room was spacious and comfortable with daily sheets changed.

My spouse and I are currently staying at this all-inclusive hotel, and this is our third night here. Unfortunately, our experience has been a bit less than ideal The biggest issue is the food. Despite this being an all-inclusive hotel, the food quality is not good . The meals are badly cooked, tasteless. As a result, we were forced to eat outside sometimes but the hotel has Very nice and friendly staff

Location is superb - we haven't seen any hotels closer to the beach, than ours. One can go swim in the ocean and then sunbathe comfortably at the pool area. Rooms were nice and overall clean, but there was a lot of dust under the bed. Amazing staff at the bar and in the dining area. Also on Tuesdays there are a stretching and an aqua aerobic lessons performed by wonderful Diana. She is truly a gem, she helped me relieve the pain of my after-levada sore muscles. Highly recommend!
