Top Caniçal Hotel Reviews

Allegro Madeira - Adults Only - Member of Barceló Hotel Group

8/10 Good

"Good base, Clean, modern very comfy bed. Breakfast great choice sometimes very busy around 9am Great roof top bar with fabtastic views across Funchal. Friendly staff on reception. Building work either side to the hotel."

The Editory Garden Carmo Funchal

8/10 Good

"A lovely hotel in the city centre. I had a refurbished room which was very comfortable with modern decor and feel. Breakfast was plentiful but could have been varied a bit from day to day. I enjoyed using the pool but the sun umbrellas were not in use as I was told they had previously blown over in the wind. I couldn’t help but notice that other places in Funchal (bars etc) had similar umbrellas and used well designed sand bags to ensure they didn’t tip over. Maybe a something the hotel can look into. Overall, I‘d recommend this hotel, clean, comfortable, friendly and well positioned."

Dreams Madeira Resort Spa & Marina

10/10 Excellent

"We were well received with staff helping with our bags immediately. Note, if you do want your luggage right away, don't use their luggage service as it is not immediate. Room was large and comfortable. We had an oceanview room with balcony. For the smokers, balcony has ashtrays! Bathroom was large with separate toilet door. Small note, that one of the 2 sinks was a bit backed up. That is truly the only small thing. Staff were polite throughout the resort. Not understanding the concept, it is a resort where you can purchase different packages for food and beverage. As you research take note that Funschal is approx 40 mins away so if you aren't making the commute, look into a more robust dining package. Our favourite spot was the natural saltwater pool. It's like an infinity pool up against the ocean. It fills/filters when the tide is high. Crabs run along the pool edge. On the other side of the pool you can swim in the ocean. At low tide the water is neck deep (approx) and can be accessed via the beach. The food is amazing at the natural pool location. The seafood rice was our favourite. Clayton, the host was very nice. Outside the fact it's a bit far, it's a lovely resort with enough entertainment as well as solitude for days."

The Cliff Bay, by PortoBay

10/10 Excellent

"Pure luxury in a fantastic location for exploring Funchal. Couldn't fault the hotel, everything was exquisite. We booked a superior room which meant we had a few extra perks (like having a separate breakfast restaurant with table service to name one) and the seam view balcony was huge. Overall we fully recommend the Cliff Bay"

Pestana Royal All Inclusive Ocean & Spa Resort

4/10 Poor

"A very dated hotel - I can see how it might have been good in its day, but now very worn, and does not align with expectations of a modern 5 star hotel. Rooms are small, unkempt, with very thin walls. We could hear toilets flushing throughout the night, and every word said in the rooms next door. We even paid for a deluxe sea view room. Bathrooms are unhygienic - no door, or walls to the bathroom, just a glass panel."
