"This was the first time we have ever stayed at a RIU resort and we were not disappointed. The staff were all wonderful. Big shout out to the bartenders and wait staff for their friendliness. "

"Fantastic view from the window, but the room lacks tea and coffee making facilities. Water was also not served. 4 stars is a bit exaggerated."

"Excellent stay, 10/10 recommend. Very clean and well maintained, beautiful views. Host was easy to communicate with, responsive, and had lots of thoughtful touches (local fruit, water, etc). Well stocked kitchen for cooking. Would recommend a car, but that’s true for most of Madeira. "

"Great value for money hotel. Good breakfast with quite a few options, and comfy bed. Hotel seems a little bit dated and cleaning could be improved. However, would stay again if catching early flight or arriving late as it’s only 5 mins from the airport."

"Second time staying here. Lovely hotel in Garajau. Decent breakfast, clean rooms and extremely nice people. Would highly recommend."

"I liked the option of purchasing the dinner Buffett while I was there. After exploring all day it was nice to just go downstairs and enjoy the wide selection of food. I also enjoyed the bus stop right in front of the hotel that was easy to use. Everyone was friendly and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. One thing was the pool closing hrs were at 2100 which for my family is typically the time we have winded down and are ready for a swim. I will say there was one night the front desk clerk kept the pool open a little later so we could take our time enjoying the pool so that was definitely a plus!"

"I really really enjoyed my stay. Hotel was clean and quiet and served my needs perfectly. Hotel staff was able to arrange for a rental car for me when I arrived to the hotel. Free parking was very limited but, I was always able to find paid street parking not far from the hotel. So not really a big deal. The hotel staff are superb. A special acknowledgement to Barbara Gomez who is so kind, professional, always had a smile on her face and offered great suggestions for things to do in Madeira during my stay. My only “complaint” which is minor is the temperature of the hot water in my room . I like the option of very hot water when it comes to bathing/showering. The water in my room was barely lukewarm. Outside of this minor issue, I would most certainly would stay at this hotel again. "
