Machico Hotel Guide - Whale Museum hotels in Machico, Portugal.

"This place was amazing. I will be back and that's a fact. The negatives that people talk of should be taken like a pinch of salt. Yes there is a few little improvements here and there but on the whole the food was amazing the place was lovely and it's just a lovely place"

"Please note that this review is for the Hotel Solar do Bom Jesus in Santa Cruz - I was asked to move to this hotel when Hotel Amparo requested that I move to their sister hotel due to short-notice issues with the hotel. This was fine for me and it was handled very well by both hotels."

"Nice place, friendly staff and gorgeous view"

"Beautiful area "

"Beautiful house with view of the coast. The house has everything you might need and more. Kind and friendly host that welcomed us and showed us around. Easy access to main road, parking included on premises. This house is best to rent if you plan to rent a car, otherwise it might be cumbersome to get around as busses don’t go too often around that area, otherwise it is great. Highly recommend if you are staying on the east side of Madeira. "

"Staying at São Lourenço Guest House in Madeira was truly the highlight of our trip. The property is stunning, peaceful, and spotless, with everything thoughtfully arranged for comfort and relaxation. But what made it unforgettable was the host—so warm, welcoming, and helpful, going above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. From local tips to daily check-ins, their kindness made us feel completely at home. It was hands down the best stay we’ve ever had, and we can’t wait to return! "

"Villa Bahari (named Villa Moniz on the house itself) is located on the windy side of Madeira with beautiful ocean views and easy access to PR8 hike along Ponta Sao Lourenco and water excursions departing from the Quinta do Lorde marina, like snorkeling in summer or whale watching in winter. The home is exceptionally large with almost too much living space to enjoy - would be great for a large party. Due to the wind, we were never able to enjoy the outdoor kitchen or dining area, and the firepit had no fuel and seemed to be a potential fire hazard due to the high wind and proximity to dry brush all around, so we avoided that. When we got to the villa, there was a terrible odor like smelled like sewage and mildew. We thought maybe it was due to dry water traps in the showers/sinks/toilets, so tried to go around and run the water for a few seconds in each room. But there was no water in the house. After multiple calls back and forth with property management, they were able to get someone to come out and get the water resumed on a Saturday evening, thank goodness. When we’re finally able to run water to all of the traps (along with opening all of the windows) we were hoping the smell would dissipate but it really never did. You become “nose blind” after a bit but as soon as you leave and come back, it’s still there. We cannot recommend this house for that reason. "

"Having only stayed here for a brief period, arriving after midnight and departing in the morning, I must say the entire experience was truly delightful. The hotel, though rated as a three-star establishment, boasted a reception staff that provided a five-star level of service. The property itself was well-maintained, and the room was exceptionally spacious with lovely views. Furthermore, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and the breakfast was quite tasty."

"Apartament położony bardzo blisko lotniska. Hałas w zupełności akceptowalny. Możliwość obserwowania startów i lądowań. Szybki internet. Duży plus to miejsce parkingowe. "
