"Easy to walk into town, great breakfast and friendly staff. I really enjoyed my stay"

"Beautiful paradise garden, ocean view, very helpful staff, weel-equipped room, perfect breakfast. We couldn't have wished for anything better."

"The location was perfect…very walkable.. E were very fortunate to have a stunning room upgrade. Rooftop patio and restaurant were both fantastic! The staff were more than accommodating. Would definitely recommend!"

"Locational is phenomenal, rooms are great for what they are. Check in was a little rough, no on sent us a code to get into the building and the door was locked, so we had to get a local from a shop to call the number on the door for someone to let us in. They clean the room and make the beds everyday, staff is very friendly. Highly recommend staying here!"

"Hotel PortoBay Santa Maria is a gem. Location is perfect, right in a center of Old town, close to cable to the Monte Palace and Mercado. We had an ocean view, which was a nice upgrade. Breakfast has everything you can imagine with a very attentive staff and beautiful atmosphere. Rooms are very clean and spacious. Live music in the evening in a bar area. I would greatly recommend this hotel to the future visitors f Funchal."

"Kitchen was fairly well equipped for prepping breakfasts. It had pots and pans should you decide to prepare a meal."

"Ok to stay 1 night"

"A great apartment on the edge of the old town. Fab views of the sea and of the local area - great for people watching. Good size living / kitchen area with well appointed cooking area. Full sized fridge freezer which is always a bonus. Bedroom at the back with a small rooflight window - no aircon - but a decent fan in both areas.

"Excellent stay would recommend again and will stay here Gain"

"Entertainment was a lovely close to an evening "

"Every aspect of our stay was top class. The staff were extremely helpful and efficient."

"Great little hotel especially if you need to be close to the airport, as it’s only a few minutes away! Very kind staff, room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was decent. Would stay again :)"

"Very clean, good location. Staff didn't know how to make the cocktails on their menu and the room was very small, but we enjoyed our one night stay!"

"If you're going to Madeira Island this the place to stay. Great staff, large rooms with an ocean view and a very good restaurant. "

"Great Location & wellness offers. Friendly staff"

"Very nice old villa with plenty of character! Nice garden to relax in with pool too. "

"Very nice "

"The staff was so kind and the property looks on the beautiful cliffs of Madeira. We loved being able to use the Galosol pool, this was definitely a highlight. There are many restaurants within walking distance and parking is very inexpensive and easy in front. Nice to be away from the city but still close to visit as needed, would recommend for a relaxing stay!"

"Lovely place. Great service."

"Excellent breakfast and dinner buffets. Clean, quiet and friendly. A good inland location, away from the traffic, crowds and noise of hotels near the coast and in coastal towns."
