This hotel is absolutely amazing. Since the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we felt like we were in heaven. The grounds, the pool, and the facilities are so well kept. The workers and staff are the kindest and friendliest that we have ever encountered. All in all a truly wonderful experience.

Very special Quinta experience. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Everything we needed help to organise was dealt with efficiently. Early am taxi to depart was on the dot. Amazing botanical gardens with Tortoise! Gorgeous pool. Lovely temperature. Comfy room. Felt t like we got a taste of times gone by but with all the creature comforts of the present day. Excellent breakfast!

Superb in every way, I wish I could give it 6 stars instead of 5!

Absolutely beautiful hotel, with extremely pleasant and helpful staff, and fantastic food. Breakfast outside is a highlight, as are the botanical gardens in which the hotel stands. Views are very pretty of Funchal and the nearby hills. Room was lovely and spotless. The delicious food and the drink are a bit pricey, but someone's got to pay for those lovely plants. Although it's only '17 minutes' walk to Funchal centre, you wont to walk as the roads are steep and not good for walking. The hotel shuttle bus is very good but there's no evening service. You're on your own in the evening, as there are no good restaurants nearby, unless you dine in. Swimming pool is lovely and food/drink available during the day at the pool. the one local bar is just round the corner and will serve drinks and simple food for a fraction of the hotel's price. Overall, a really great hotel.

This hotel is fabulous. The staff, food and gardens are fantastic. A very peaceful holiday. Great breakfasts and dinners, wonderful attentive staff.

The location, in 14,000sq metres of botanical gardens was idyllic, beautiful to look at, walk round, sit in and lovely and peaceful. The old house has been beautifully updated and restored and the rooms are sumptuous. The staff were friendly and helpful and our whole 9 day stay was a joy.

Old world luxury. Outstanding service from everyone we interacted with. Don’t miss the hotels own restaurant as it’s a hidden gem.

Garden are magnificent!! Perfect stay.

This is a simply beautiful hotel providing some much needed luxury and relaxation after a week of strenuous walking. We arrived early but our room was ready and we’d been upgraded. The room was spacious and very comfortable. We had a balcony with a view over the garden and some complimentary fruit and water. Breakfast was amazing and the service was very friendly and efficient without being obtrusive. Dinner was an additional cost and perhaps a little pricey but it was good. The facilities were great too - a beautiful pool with a poolside bar and lunch facility and a jacuzzi. Lots of loungers for everyone. The location is out of town with a steep walk down (we are fit and fast and it took us 30 mins to get right down to the seafront), but there’s a shuttle bus during the week (not at the weekend while we were there) and the local buses stop outside. A perfect retreat.

How could I describe this place... Perfect in every aspect and worth every penny! The staff was so friendly and professional, the breakfast in the yard/inside the "old part" was outstanding, and service as if we, ordinary people, were aristocrats :D Outstanding tropical garden, and the tortoise Colombo was such a gentleman! We loved the place and definitely will come again!

Hotel is difficult to find without satnav. However, once there the welcome is excellent and ALL the staff are amazingly helpful, friendly, good humoured and knowledgable. Rooms are superb, clean, spacious and with balconies. Beautiful gardens, extensive area including a pool, gym, jacussi and day time restaurant.

Excellent staff ! On the negative side. Lighting in the bathroom not good enough for making up.Pillows did not fit into the pillowcases. The temperature in the hotel was on the chilly side at breakfast it was cold .
