Pros:

Le jardin, la piscine avec la vue, la taille de la chambre, le style un peu rétro. La gentillesse du personnel toujours prêt à rendre service.

Cons:

On sent les ressorts des matelas, pas de bouilloire/café/bouteilles d’eau dans les chambres.

Good as an escape but food is not as good
Pros:

The grounds and feel of the Quinta was very good. The staff were friendly and provided everything we needed

Cons:

The breakfast and evening meal. It is targeted at German tourists and they provide primarily a continental breakfast with limited choice for hot options. Boiled eggs, cheese and cold meats with some fruit and cereals. The evening meal on the Sunday evening was NOT the quality of the meal on the previous night

A peaceful location
Pros:

The view was fabulous and our room had a duel aspect, which was lovely. The hotel is very peaceful and we found the staff very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

I need to eat gluten free and had advised the hotel of this in advance of our stay. However, there seemed to be great uncertainty from the staff bringing the food out, as to whether our dishes were gf. This caused me to be anxious and I can’t say this made for a great dining experience. Obviously, for the vast majority of people this won’t be an issue and the food was ok.

Average to good.
Pros:

Breakfast & Dinner were great. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The pool was nice and had good views. Overall and average stay nothing fancy or exciting

Cons:

The location was not great. Good for retirees looking to relax. Not for someone exploring Madeira. Remember the water will cost you 6 Euros, no free water.

Une très belle quinta avec vue magnifique mais décevante quand on y loge
Pros:

J’ai aimé le jardin très fleuri, la piscine de belle taille avec une vue incroyable. Et la vue de la chambre également.

Cons:

Notre chambre à la déco d’un autre temps. La salle de bain avec des carreaux différents, avec des savons bon marché . Nous avons pris le dîner une seule fois mais le repas trois services compris dans notre demi-pension était quelconque et fade, avec du thon beaucoup cuit. Les horaires de 18h30 à 20h30 font penser à une maison de repos. On nous a refusé un verre de vin dans le bar après le dîner sous prétexte qu’on est obligé de prendre une bouteille, quitte à la terminer le lendemain. Quant au petit déjeuner, il y a pas mal de préparations du genre quiche, omelette, pancake, etc mais tout est froid, trop cuit et sans saveur. Les ananas n’ont pas de goût. Le dernier jour, aucun réassort… Nous y avons passé trois nuits et pas de ménage ! Bref, je ne conseille pas cette Quinta, qui est très belle de l’extérieur, mais qui est très décevante dans le fonctionnement et la décoration intérieure. Une très

Pros:

Un hotel bonito, que cultiva la ensalada, fruta y tienen unas gallinas preciosas para los huevos.
El personal muy bueno, sobretodo Idilia nos hizo sentir muy contentos y cómodos.

Cons:

El gimnasio escaso y algunas cositas de la habitación se podrían actualizar, pero sigue siendo un muy buen hotel.

Amazing
Pros:

Everything. Hotel is spotless. The rooms - everything super clean, tidy and looked after. Amazing views to the ocean. Restaurant - amazing food with the smallest details thought through like fresh flowers on each table and candles for dinner. Food was amazing too, we had dinner and breakfast there. Garden is very beautiful too. We really enjoyed out stay.

Cons:

Nothing
