Madeira Island Hotel Guide - Palheiro Golf Club hotels in Madeira Island, Portugal.

Hotel is extremely attractive with excellent views, particularly from bay view rooms. Comfortably furnished with good facilities. Restaurant is good, but mainly barbecue type food. Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Only real negative is Wi-Fi not available in rooms and other locations unreliable. Regular bus service from outside hotel to Funchal journey time around 15 minutes, running about every 60 minutes, fare €1.90 one way. Plenty of taxis avai9lable fare between €9 and €12.

we stayed at dom pedro 2 adults one 3 year old this is our second time ,for the price you can`t get a better hotel we had just room only because there are lovely eating places outside the hotel or in the centre we also hired a car which for us was a must as we went round the island. the hotel is not 5 star so if youe fancy a 5 star but think you can get the same service your mistaken. but for a place to stay for room only you cant beat it.the swimming pools are not heated but the time we went the weather was hot so nice and refreasing for us .they have 3 pools in total and tennis courts plus free internet at reception only. once again i stress for the price it`s great but do remember it is a 3 star.

Extended our holiday by staying for 3 nights here. The location and setting were excellent. Take time to explore the orchard, it was wonderful. The breakfasts catered for every possible taste and the only meal we ate in was excellent.

Mr Horta is a star, very friendly, very helpful. The location was also superb in the old part of town: we could walk to everywhere we wanted to go in just a few minutes (old town, shops, teleferico, cathedral, beach, swimming pool, pick up point for levada walks). Others have mentioned it's located up a hill, which it is, but it's a very small hill. I wouldn't have thought it worth mentioning. We did ask to move rooms after a couple of nights because we were near a noisy neighbour's dog, which they did for us and that was a great improvement. There were roadworks outside for the duration, which meant we had no traffic. I don't know how noisy the road would be normally. I'd go back, definitely: the room was all we needed, the family were lovely, and the breakfast was pretty substantial too if you wanted it.

I've just returned from a two week stay at the Porto Santa Maria and it's my eighth consecutive visit. It doesn't get any better than this for facilities cleanliness good food lovely rooms and fabulous caring staff.

It is a very good hotel, good location, very good value for money, just one thing concerned me, when I was booking, expedia website says there is buffet breakfast, but in reality you will get 2 baps alittle butter, the same little jam and a little triangle of cheese, 50mi of juice and a cup of coffee. that is it. When I have asked them about breakfast buffet, they have been looking at me with dropped jaws. They have heard about that.

Once you have found the Hotel there is a big greeting from the Receptionist & help with you cases to the enormous rooms you will be delighted. Go for a rear room or preferably the Suite (if you can afford it)
