Quinta do Estreito

Pros: It was lovely, quite aria, awesome ocean view, great stuff, warm pool. Great experience!

Cozy vibe - clean environment - great location.

Pros: I stayed there for two nights. I really like the hotel vibe. It's not a big resort but not small either. It's located close to Funchal yet the area is quite and offers many options for shopping or dining (got to know it's famous especially for Espetada :)) There is a parking spot for guests. Breakfasts were varied and delicious. The staff friendly and helpful. You can enjoy sauna and pool even out of the peak season but unluckily I didnt have a time to try it. It's perfect place for those who look for a place close to Funchal with a cozy vibe.

Cons: The hotel is not new as many reviews mention but that certainly wasn't an issue for me. I liked the vibe of that place. I might only consider this location without own vehicle (never tried to reach it via public transportion).

A calmer, peaceful hotel with its own garden, terrace and views. Wonderful staff team.

Pros: Family owned style / approach of staff and atmosphere; incredibly friendly and attentive staff team across all areas - they were gracious and super helpful with my basic Portuguese attempts and questions; very clean bedroom and bathroom; yes, older decor style as some reviews state, but very well looked after and maintained and immaculately clean; a quieter hotel with lovely grounds with bonus cat mum and her 3 beautiful and playful kittens; delicious and all you need breakfast; lovely terrace to use for breakfast; poolside bar if fancy a cocktail; great views from the hotel terrace and bedroom balcony - particularly if you don’t wish to be in the mad tourism of Funchal; local facilities and on-site parking easy.

Cons: We enjoyed the cool pool - post peak season - but end of September/early October it would have been even better to have it slightly heated 😀. Unusual and unpleasant smell, we think might have been floor polish or mop.

Pros: Very good breakfast, the amazing views and swimming pool

Pros: The rooms with sea view have a high view to the horizon and in this case to the ocean and ribeira brava. Rooms are big and well equiped. Toilet is ok and bed as well.~ Breakfast was good We stayed only one night ( a couple of hours ), nothing much to say

Cons: When we went into the room, over the table were 2 glasses and water, and under the glasses it was full of little hunts. We like nature, we went to madeira because of that mostly, but when we get an expensive room on a 4* hotel we don't expect to have hunts over your breakfast table inside the room ( not even in africa, ahah ).

Nothing too fancy, but very comfortable and excellent value for money.

Pros: Excellent value for money. Room in third floor was very nice and had a beatiful balcony with a view of the sea. Shower worked well. Breakfast is OK. Amazing terrace with stunning view and wonderful garden. Staff was excellent. The location is perfect, as it is not in Funchal which can be quite busy, but not too far away, and also it is right next to a big supermarket, a farmacy, and a couple of traditional restaurants that were very good (I recommend \

Cons: The coffee in the breakfast could be better. You can tell that the hotel has seen better days and it requires some maintenance, but that has not reduced the quality and comfort of my stay at all, it is just an aesthetic thing. The air conditioner in the room was a little bit noisy.

Worth it

Pros: The room and hotel is gorgeous. It was perfect for a 3 night break between my hikes.

Pros: Friendly Staff, Lovely helpful and informative Receptionist. Perfect location Excellent views, Short distance to Local shops, Resturants, Bus stop etc

Pros: Big room, comfortable in general. A large of variety on the breakfast. A couple of very good restaurants nearby.

Pros: Good location, nice pool & teracce. Good breakfast, great to have welcome drinks. Rooms are big, clean, there is sauna.
