Lovely views overlooking Funchal and charming attentive staff
Formerly a lovely traditional mansion this unique award winning Quinta has been carefully restored and extended, with the addition of the main hotel and a newer wing which is separated from the Quinta by the formally designed extensive gardens.
This charming hotel is a true delight, its beautiful large lounges give the impression of a country house hotel. Surrounded by extensive, lovely gardens and overlooking Funchal to the sea, the town is a five to ten minute drive away.
DINING
The hotel prides itself on good cuisine with a high standard of service and courtesy. A full European breakfast is served in the table d’hôte restaurant and 24 hour room service is available too. An à la carte menu is offered in the beautiful dining room in the old Quinta.
" Each time I have visited this hotel the staff have been so welcoming and you see the same staff each time you go, nothing is too much trouble for them, rooms are very comfortable and the gardens are lovely to relax in..."

The main hotel has cosy twin rooms, some with balcony, others with superior view and balcony towards the bay. All rooms are air-conditioned except the suites in the old Quinta and have a sitting area, hairdryer, bathrobes, free safe, mini-bar, and cable TV. Beautiful larger deluxe rooms with a balcony are also available.

About two miles from the centre of Funchal, which can be reached by the day time courtesy bus (not Saturday afternoons or Sundays), this hotel is ideal for a luxurious ‘away from it all’ holiday. The owners also run the Hotel Porto Santo & Spa on the neighbouring island of the same name for something a little different.
We include a private taxi transfer – approx. 35 minutes.
