One of the few places near Funchal where there is a beach. There are cafes too, and you can walk from there to Camera de Lodos along a raised promenade

8/10 Very Good! (541 reviews)
Immaculate, peaceful with welcoming and helpful staff. Our room had a great view and I liked the design of the hotel so it was a lovely place to be, and cleverly placed at the side of a bay and also easily and quickly accessible by car.
Big thank you to everyone for making our stay so lovely

Spacious, clean room. Friendly and helpful staff. The swimming pools were all in excellent condition. The building itself is a bit dated but the facilities were still excellent. Happy with my stay!

The room was a decent size and very clean. The check in and check out process was easy. The front desk was super friendly and helpful. The breakfast was amazing! We didn’t use the pool but it looked very nice. I would stay here again!
