"Perfect airport hotel. 5 minutes from the airport and very clean hotel. Safe area. Nice staff. We left before breakfast started but the facility looked nice. If you need to be near the airport, this is a great choice "
"It's a nice three stars hotel, a little bit old but comfortable and not far from the center of Funchal, so you will be at walking distance of almost everything. Breakfast was nice, and the hotel staff was friendly."
"A very nice place to stay as a base whilst visiting around the beautiful island. Its not far from Funchal by BOLT taxi service and close to airport too, so not difficult to travel to the main centre."

"Wonderful place to stay. The terrace is delightful at any time of day. To be honest, I didn't want to leave the hotel for any reason except to hike. The service was amazing and there are many excellent dining options. Highly recommend!!"
"We loved our stay at the Barcelo. The room was very clean. The king sized bed was very comfortable as was the sofa bed which our daughter slept on. There was plenty of room in our room which was the standard basic room for 3 people. We loved the shower as well. The breakfasts were amazing and we really liked how the hotel opened up onto the main street where you could dine. The rooftop had amazing views and the decor and service was fantastic. A couple of times the water bottle wasn’t replenished (1 bottle is free per night) but when calling reception, they quickly gave us one. We would like to come back and recommend the Barcelo which is also located perfectly for visiting Funchel. The staff were very nice as well. "
"We enjoyed our stay, the food and drinks were very good, room was comfortable and cleaned daily. Service in all of the restaurants was excellent and all the staff very polite.
The outside area needs more attention especially the club balcony, it was never cleaned the eleven nights that we were there.

"Lovely small central hotel . Perfect for accessing the old town. If you don’t need an outdoor pool and like to be close to town this hotel is a good option."
"I stayed at Saccharum Resort & Spa and while the stunning views are an obvious highlight, what really stood out to me was the hotel’s design.
It honours its past as a former sugar cane factory — with original machinery cleverly integrated into the lobby and hallways. Think softened brutalism: raw textures balanced by warm materials, plenty of natural light, and an organic palette that ties everything back to the surrounding mountains. The attention to detail is impressive!!!
Our room was gorgeous — it overlooked the ocean, and with the mountains rising just beside us, we felt perfectly tucked between both. A rare and calming combination.
Even when the hotel was busy, it never felt crowded. There are multiple lounging areas, and we always found a spot to relax. The pools were a highlight — especially the indoor one, which is beautifully designed, heated, and great for cooler days or when you want a break from the sun. The large window looking out at the mountains makes being indoors feel like part of the experience.
The food was varied and healthy, and we appreciated how the hotel clearly communicated when breakfast would be busy — a small but thoughtful detail that made a difference. And if you’re looking for more variety, there are plenty of restaurants nearby.
The staff were consistently courteous, multilingual, and genuinely helpful — from check-in to daily service.
Saccharum strikes a rare balance: thoughtful design, warm hospitality, and a peaceful atmosphere."
"Wow! Property is beautiful, but the service was incredible! The team there DEFINITELY deserves the previous awards they’ve won! I’ve only stayed at one other property in my entire 57 years that I would say might be comparable to the service we received at the Vine! It made our trip! THANK YOU!"
"Had an amazing stay at this hotel! I particularly loved my room - I had a superior room which was very big and spacious and had a balcony with such an incredible view. I also loved the swimming pool (both indoor and outdoor). The reception staff were super friendly who made me feel happy and welcomed. A particular shout out to Katerina at the reception desk who showed me such great hospitality. I’d definitely stay here again. "
