My partner and I recently stayed at this stylish hotel, and overall, we had a very pleasant experience. It's an incredibly peaceful place, ideal for couples seeking a quiet escape, as there are no children allowed, which adds to the serene atmosphere.
The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of fresh options each morning. However, while there is a restaurant on-site, we found it to be overpriced, and the food was somewhat mediocre in taste. I would definitely recommend venturing into the city for dinner, where you’ll find better culinary experiences.
The staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive, making our stay all the more enjoyable. However, one downside was the gym—it was quite basic and lacked essential equipment, which is disappointing for a 5-star hotel. I would expect more in terms of fitness facilities at this level.
The hotel’s bar served fantastic drinks, which was a highlight of our evenings. The pool area was also lovely, though I feel it closed a bit early at 7 PM, which is a shame because it would have been nice to relax by the pool later into the evening.
All in all, despite a few minor drawbacks, I would rate our stay at 4.5 stars. It's definitely a great option for a relaxing getaway!

We had a wonderful stay. Rooms are very comfortable and breakfast is delicious. The front desk was able to arrange a taxi for the day so we could do a hike on the island. There is a free shuttle down into town and back. If you don’t want to adhere to the schedule shuttle a taxi from Funchal to hotel is only 10 euro. Staff is incredibly nice and accommodating. Environment is beautiful and it was nice to be outside of the bustle of the city. Hoping we get to stay here again!

Great stay for the tail end of our honeymoon tour. The staff at Quinta da Bela Vista were top notch. My husband let them know in advance of our stay that it was our honeymoon and they provided us with sparkling wine in our room, and when we arrived, they actually upgraded our room to one with a beautiful view overlooking the city of Funchal and the ocean.
Breakfast buffet was delicious, lots of variety to find the meal that best suits you, and varied a bit each day. The breakfast room itself was beautiful. Staff were attentive and pleasant.
Front Staff was very incredibly helpful. When we had some very minor troubles with the plumbing, they immediately had someone come out and fix the issue, and despite the issue being fixed they upgraded our room again! Very generous.
The gardens around the resort are so idyllic, and the pool, sauna and jacuzzi was very relaxing, with views overlooking all of Funchal.
The resort caters to a bit of an older crowd, which meant it was very quiet despite there being many guests present. For dinner options, a la carte, price fixed, and bar were a bit pricey, and we decided to mostly go into town for those meals. (We are coming from Canada, so conversion played a role into this, but certainly pricier than the rest of Madeira)
Overall, we had a lovely stay, and would recommend it to anyone!

Wonderful old Portuguese Manor house set in a large and magnificent garden. Quiet and peaceful with very comfortable rooms and beds. Staff were excellent, friendly, helpful and very well trained. From the cleaners to the management they provided first class service. The food is also superb. The buffet breakfast was very varied, from fruit and yogurts to a "full English" and everything in-between (I particularly relished the wonderful fresh bread rolls) . There was even Champagne for the bucks fizz!
We were half board, and the table d'hote dinner menu was limited to one choice for each of the four courses but it was not repeated in our week and was delicious and very varied. The pool bar and terrace offers outstanding views of Funchal and the bay, a great place to end your day with a post prandial drink or two with convivial company.
A great place as a base to see Madeira and we highly recommend it.

This place was really nice, restaurants were top class, everything they do is 5 Star for the guest. They were extremely helpful and seemed to know every guest that stayed. I was alone and each time I went anywhere their was a table for one set for me. Breakfast was very good. I didnt know they would make you eggs or an omelete until I heard a woman order them. It did feel like a little older guest. Would I stay again, I don't think so. I prefer to be closer to the downtown areas. If your looking for peace and quiet. This is for you.
