Nice, quiet hotel with great staff. Enjoyable breakfast and dinner. My only complaint would be the shower head is in need of replacement, the water didn't spray out, it just fell out like a tap.

A real experience of Madeira
This Quinta was charming. Not in the general tourist area it was perfect for walking with the Lavadas right on the doorstep. The staff were lovely. The only downside was the fact coffee and tea are not provided in the rooms. The food was very good but not large helpings.

The place to stay if you love peace and quiet
Lovely place set in beautiful grounds with views of the mountains. Staff could not be more friendly and helpful. Visit the Sunday market in the village. You need a car to get about if you stay here

Nice garden and good value
I stayed there for two nights. Staff were friendly and helpful. Check in and out was efficient since there are only six rooms at the property. Room is spacious, clean, and quiet but nothing fancy. If you wanted to be away from the city and crowds, this is a good choice. They dont have staff there 24/7 so be aware that if you cant arrive before 10pm, contact them ahead of time so they will be prepared. GPS is not very helpful on this island. The best way to get there is to take ER239 and then ER207. Otherwise you might be on the roller coaster type of tiny roads. 15 mins driving from the airport.

Great forest hotel
This is a great hotel for those who want a true Madeira experience and is perfect base to explore the whole island. It feels more like a home than a hotel, that has great food, staff and a warm atmosphere. It is about 30 mins by car from Funchal and a rental is a must. But to most things on the island, this is recommended anyway as there is so much to explore and parking is cheap or free where ever you go.

A class act
If you are looking for somewhere with the comforts of a top hotel, but the friendly atmosphere of a guesthouse this is the place for you. Lovely owners and staff. Set in a large garden away from the road, yet just a five minute drive to the local village with and a twenty minute drive to the coast, it offers peace and quiet for anybody seeking to simply chill out in the beautiful garden ..... not a yapping dog nor a ghetto blaster to be heard anywhere! The only caution for anybody with mobility problems is the steep cobbled path to the 4 annexed rooms, so it would be a smart move to request a room in the main house. The altitude means that there is sometimes more cloud cover during the day than at the coast, but it has the benefit of cool nights for sleeping. All in all a fabulous experience.

Peaceful, quiet location. Friendly, helpful staff.
We got off to a bad start as the taxi driver at the airport didn't have a clue where our hotel was and got hopelessly lost before asking some locals for directions, and charging us the full amount for his mistake! The hotel more than made up for it though... the location is pleasantly tucked away in the verdant, leafy hills of Santo da Sara a small quiet village a few Kilometres away from Funchal. Our room was one of four in an out building just a few yards up the hill from the main hotel and restaurant. The room was basic but clean and comfortable, with great views of the mountains in front. Staff were more than helpful and were forthcoming in giving travel advice and directions as well as general hotel hospitality. Restaurant seemed a bit pricey (evening meal) but the food was very good. I would definitely recommend this as a quiet holiday stay.

Fantastic Service. Wonderful quiet location.
This was our first stop of five in Medeira. Its fairly close in a quiet location to the airport. This hotel gave us a wonderful start to our holiday, very welcoming, (Medeiran wine as we walked through the door). Excellent food provided, and our wonderful hosts introduced us to the Medeiran way of life. We felt like part of their family. Most of the quests joined together in front of a roaring log fire of their own accord, and talked of their experiences. Wonderful, wonderful place. The best place to be for a start of a holiday.

Mooie accommodatie (kleinschalig, maar goede kwaliteit). Centraal in het westen gelegen en ideaal voor uitstapjes naar Funchal, oostpunt, Porta Cruz/Santana en Areeiro. Eigen (huur-)auto is wel een must. Huis was goed, maar de tuin was niet erg goed onderhouden....
