Pros: The hotel was absolutely lovely! We enjoyed our room with 2 patios & wonderful chaise lounges. Our bed was really comfortable & the turn down service with water every night was really nice. Breakfast was amazing, with both buffet items and cooked to order specials each day. The pools & ocean swim areas were also really great. The staff was always attentive & very helpful. We also enjoyed their afternoon tea, which had amazing views overlooking the ocean.

Pros: if you like old fashioned and style, this is the right hotel for you . Think English Country House Hotel in a sub tropical garden and climate. I t also benefit from its own micro climate so we had sunny spells when all around us was thick cloud and rain

Cons: the staff was very friendly, the consierge helped us to buy ticket to a football match however the seating was not at all comfortable, we kindly ask the team to buy the best ticket for the match... it was a burning sunny day we had to sit in front of the sun, we burnt like hell... :( i booked a room with two separated bed, however they prepared us a king sized bed suit, we had to finally change the room, it has taken more time during check in, and the view from the other room was not as spectacular as from the king sized bed room... and the room was too small, we had to ask to take out the armchairs from the room

Whether a young child or a centenarian, a fun-seeking teenager or a sports-mad 30-something, there are activities both within the hotel’s estate and beyond to keep you on the go year-round.
The Atlantic Ocean stretches as far as the eye can see at the foot of The Cliff Bay... Perched on the top of a natural promontory, the hotel is surrounded by gardens - with innumerable secluded corners and centenary palm trees extending to the very edge of the cliff face. The panorama is completed by a magnificent view over the bay of Funchal to the east of the hotel.
This 5 star hotel, one of PortoBay Hotels premium resorts, assures that every single little detail has been carefully conceived to present genuine peace, well-being and elegance. In the hotel’s sea access area one can combine the Atlantic Ocean breeze with the spell-binding views when choosing the new pontoons and solariums.
The most influential restaurant guide in the world, the Michelin Guide, has awarded the Il Gallo d'Oro, The Cliff Bay's gourmet restaurant, run by Chef Benoît Sinthon, with 2 Stars.

Pros: The room was spacious with two large single beds pushed together. A beautiful roomy bathroom with a separate shower and bath.

Pros: We were very pleased with the hotel, it is a true 5 star experience. Great location, just 30 minutes walk to the Funchal city. Beautiful views, lovely garden and very nice sea access. WiFi is available throughout the hotel, even on the beach. Very good breakfast with perfect view from the terrace and winter garden. The restaurant on the beach is also really nice, I liked the seafood and their traditional garlic bread;) The SPA is also worth mentioning - friendly and professional staff, interesting treatments and a truly relaxing atmosphere. The Michelin restaurant is a must-visit place. Would recommend this hotel for those looking for a quiet, comfortable and unforgettable vacation on Madeira!

Pros:
Cons: We have booked the 'Economic Twin room' which was facing a busy street, the noise level was so high that we could not sleep until 4 am. Next day we have decided that we will move to another hostel, we did not get any refund for the remaining nights as the receptionist said that the "City View" and "Econimic" mentioned in our booking clearly states that the room facing to the noisy street. The hostel itself is nice, just be super careful which room you book.

Pros: Breakfast was great, bacon and eggs, bread, jams, cereal, fruit and tea, coffee and juice. The free cake every day was the best! Excellent location in the old town for exploring Funchal, was only a short walk to many attractions.
Cons: The floorboards were very creaky and it was often quite noisy at night, even if people weren't making much noise themselves, but we got used to it quickly. Light sleepers might struggle, though.

7.9 Good
Pros: The place is clean, tidy, spacious, friendly stuff, free fruits and cookies at the kitchen

Cons: We weren’t told that the Italian was a set menu before booking so left after we arrived and didn’t like the options, 1 or 2 members of staff were very miserable but 95% of them were brilliant, evening entertainment was good but very repetitive it would be nice if something other than singers was offered
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Everything with the hotel was good
Cons: The problem we had was there was no air conditioning in the room, so we had to keep the window/door open each night. The entertainment was too loud for us to sleep and did not finish until midnight. We could not escape from the noise. When the entertainment was over there were people out side still enjoying themselves until 2am. Because of this we were not getting to sleep until after this time, which was not acceptable. Because of this we would not stay in the hotel again or recommend to our family or friends....sorry.
7.5 Good
Pros: Nice view from the room. It was a full see-view. Friendly staff, but sometimes it wasn't easy to understand each other. Friendly staff but they have no time to talk at all. But the smile is always a good thing.
Cons: After a few days the buffet menu is boring, no other ingredients. It is bad, that for a huge hotel like this, not provided a free transfer to the city, so you have to pay always 10€ to travel to the city plus 10 to back to the hotel. The thematic restaurants - italian, japan, madeirian are also have the same food as the buffet, but in a different deko.

8.8 Excellent
Pros: Excellent room, all the staff provided brilliant service throughout.
Cons: A la carte restaurants were too ‘packaged’ and ‘functional’ - a bit in and out within 1hr 30 mins. Brasserie was the best overall. Swimming pool area was tightly packed with sun beds (really too many people packed into the outside space).
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Great Location and lovely views. The staff were very helpful/friendly and worked very hard in the bars and restaurants. Drink choice was very good and the coffee was great. The bedroom was a good size and we had a good view.
Cons: Overall the food was good but we did find that during the first few days the choice seemed to favour fish eaters but this seemed to change and the balance was better. We had one meal in the Italian restaurant and this was a set menu with 2 of the courses being fish with no real option if you cannot eat fish. This should be made clear when booking the additional restaurants.
7.5 Good
Pros: Great adjoining rooms with lovely balcony. Breakfast and buffet restaurant food was good, if choice a little limited.
Cons: Air conditioning wasn't strong enough so room was very warm at night. The meals at the bookable restaurants were very rushed (unnecessarily so). The quality of the Madeiran food was disappointing and not as good as meals we had in Funchal centre during our first week.

Pros: Front desk super friendly and helpful. Laura and Kelly - thank you again. This hotel is definitely one to pay for the upgrade for sea view. Absolutely special views and no noise from traffic on the other side. The second balcony off the bathroom makes for an interesting conversation. Truly one of the nicest rooms I have ever stayed in. Breakfast excellent, roof top bar with spectacular views, pool area clean with bar. Don't hesitate to book.

Pros: The location is perfect if you want to spend time sunbathing and swimming in the ocean. Lido Swimming Complex is only 5 minutes walk as well as free of charge swimming area. There are a lot of restaurants and small supermarkets near the hotel. Funchal city centre is acceable by bus (ticket costs 1.95 and the bus will bring you in the old town within 10 minutes). The staff is friendly and helpful. Rooms are well-equipped and the furniture is really new and modern. The breakfast is fantastic, probably the best breakfast I've had in hotels.

Pros: Very nice breakfast, very friendly and helpful staff, pretty nice location and no children in sight :D We liked everything. Staff was very kind and surprisingly professional; arranged everything for us, from shuttle to and from airport, to taxi when we needed one, to rental car right there at the hotel. Last but not least I would like to mention the colorful bartender on the roof top bar :D definitely worth checking out

Pros: Front desk super friendly and helpful. Laura and Kelly - thank you again. This hotel is definitely one to pay for the upgrade for sea view. Absolutely special views and no noise from traffic on the other side. The second balcony off the bathroom makes for an interesting conversation. Truly one of the nicest rooms I have ever stayed in. Breakfast excellent, roof top bar with spectacular views, pool area clean with bar. Don't hesitate to book.

Pros: The staff were really friendly and helpful. Location was perfect. We upgraded, and the room was spectacular. All very quirky and modern. It was situated above a small shopping centre and a 10 minute stroll to the promenade. A twenty minute walk to the right of the hotel took you to the restaurants and shops "up the hill" and a fifteen minute walk to the left took you to the restaurants in the old part of the town. There was something to do every day...lots of culture and steep hills! ( But bus transport or taxis can get you around too ) We used the " Hop-On Hop Off bus " and saw so much. Definitely worth the money.

Cons: The swimming pool towels system isn’t practical as need to go to main reception every time we wanted clean ones. Does not work as other customers just help themselves in the laundry storage room which was open. Tea and coffee could be much better and should be located elsewhere. A Nespresso machine and limited free coffee capsules should be provided. Had this in a 5 star hotel I stayed in last year in Funchal located 5 minutes away. For a 5 star hotel this was a bit poorly. A free bottle of water per day would be nice too. Especially in warm and humid days. Noticed that the net-curtains in our room were not very clean. Nothing dramatic but certainly important detail to me in a hotel room.

Pros: Incredible view ! Very good and rich breakfast , nice, frendly staff, very clean rooms. The bus shuttle from the hotel was really helpfull. Usefull tip : If you do not get to the hotel by taxi and you take the aerobus i do not recommend that you walk to the hotel if you have a big luggage, google maps will take you to very narrow streets that you have to climb (almost 45 degrees angle). Use the google maps route that includes aerobus and bus no.45 that will leave you next to the hotel. For sure, the next time we get to Madeira we shall stay here, we loved it !

Pros: We throughly enjoyed being guests at the Madeira Panoramico for a week during January. We were warmly met by the charming and helpful staff. Our room was immaculate with a spacious balcony and lovely views across Madeira. It's a peaceful spot, removed from the hustle and bustle of downtown. The housekeeping was superb; it was great to return to a spotless room every day after long walks up mountains and along levadas! Breakfast was always excellent with a huge choice on offer - and we particularly enjoyed eating on the terrace during warm and sunny mornings. We were happy to walk down into the city centre (about twenty minutes) - though there is an hourly courtesy bus running during the day if required. We used a public bus to return uphill again, often in the evenings, with a very convenient bus stop right outside the hotel. This is an excellent base to explore Madeira and we appreciated the ease of car parking and the fact that it was convenient to access the main highways from the hotel. We used the indoor swimming pool and hot tub - but it wasn't quite warm enough (for us!) to trial the beautiful outdoor pool with its stunning views! We also visited the Cocktail Bar which offers entertainment in the evenings. Above all, this hotel is a very friendly place and the staff are all cheerful, happy and keen to help.

Pros: Quiet, great views, wonderful outside pool, wide range of food.
Cons: Could do with a map of the site and better signage- it was hard to find various facilities. Staff at evening meal were too keen to clear plates etc away - felt rushed and wouldn’t allow us to eat outside in evening - without explanation as to why.
7.5 Good
Pros: Nice stay at New Year's Eve with stunning views over Funchal. Everything was perfect with only one bad experience: an unfriendly staff member at the reception who did not listen before giving answers and who seemed to be mostly interested in our money. Not nice and not in line at all with what we experienced in ultrafriendly Portugal sofar!
Cons: See above

Pros: Incredible view ! Very good and rich breakfast , nice, frendly staff, very clean rooms. The bus shuttle from the hotel was really helpfull. Usefull tip : If you do not get to the hotel by taxi and you take the aerobus i do not recommend that you walk to the hotel if you have a big luggage, google maps will take you to very narrow streets that you have to climb (almost 45 degrees angle). Use the google maps route that includes aerobus and bus no.45 that will leave you next to the hotel. For sure, the next time we get to Madeira we shall stay here, we loved it !

Pros: We appreciated the welcoming friendly, and very helpful staff. Great breakfast, superb view from our spacious room with balcony. Great grounds to relax in a with two large heated pools and everything very clean. The complimentary bus to and from the city centre proved invaluable.
Cons: Direction to and from pool could have been clearer. Other than that everything perfect.

Pros: We throughly enjoyed being guests at the Madeira Panoramico for a week during January. We were warmly met by the charming and helpful staff. Our room was immaculate with a spacious balcony and lovely views across Madeira. It's a peaceful spot, removed from the hustle and bustle of downtown. The housekeeping was superb; it was great to return to a spotless room every day after long walks up mountains and along levadas! Breakfast was always excellent with a huge choice on offer - and we particularly enjoyed eating on the terrace during warm and sunny mornings. We were happy to walk down into the city centre (about twenty minutes) - though there is an hourly courtesy bus running during the day if required. We used a public bus to return uphill again, often in the evenings, with a very convenient bus stop right outside the hotel. This is an excellent base to explore Madeira and we appreciated the ease of car parking and the fact that it was convenient to access the main highways from the hotel. We used the indoor swimming pool and hot tub - but it wasn't quite warm enough (for us!) to trial the beautiful outdoor pool with its stunning views! We also visited the Cocktail Bar which offers entertainment in the evenings. Above all, this hotel is a very friendly place and the staff are all cheerful, happy and keen to help.
Cons: It's a minor issue, but more power sockets in the room would have been appreciated. With cameras and phones requiring recharge - and the kettle (a hospitality tray is available on request)- rather a lot of plugging and unplugging was required!

Pros: The location of the Hotel is very good, and the view is even better. I have to commend the staff as they were very helpful and acted genuine and professional!
Cons: The breakfast choices are pretty varied although they could improve and the salad could also be better. The pool area is nice but the ocean cannot be heard and probably due to the age distribution no music is played either; this leaves relaxing to be accompanied by the humming sounds of the water filtering unit.

6.3 Good
Pros: The facilities, namely the pool and the direct access to the sea.
Cons: The service in general. With rare exceptions the staff was reactive and not very nice. More than once we had to grab the menu in the pool restaurant. The food. Was simply bareable. No wow factor at all. The meat in the "prego" was hard and some of the 'lapas" should never be served in any restaurant and even less so in a 5 star hotel. The parking was paid and it took forever every time we wanted to leave the hotel. Last but not the least one dress was lost by the hotel.

Pros: We stayed at the Penha da França Mar, the sister hotel of the Quinta, and it was absolutely amazing. The sea view rooms were lovely, large and comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed. The breakfast area is right by the sea, and the breakfast is nice and varied, with lots of sweet and savoury options and fresh fruit; the restaurant is also a good option for lunch by the pool. The pool area is lovely, with a large saltwater pool and direct access to the ocean, and the staff is incredibly helpful with sun-loungers and umbrellas, always making sure all guests are looked after. We explored the Quinta as well, and it looked really pretty, with a beautiful garden and a nice pool with sea views. The location is very good, a short stroll from Funchal city centre and also the lido area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Excellent value for money, and I would definitely stay here again!

Cons: Just a couple of small things: as many pointed out, the tea and coffee refills are not free, as one would expect; the tables at breakfast are not always set, so often guests will have to bring everything to the table; carpets in the corridors are a bit old, and it would be good to replace them.

Cons: Our room was located on west side with a disco over street. It was so noisy that you can not only hear the music but you even feel the vibration of your bed. Both Friday and Sunday, until 7 am. When I complained to staff the reaction was VERY arrogant. So good hotel if you would like to party.

Cons: Anyway, the pool is not that deep so I hit my head at the bottom of the pool when I jumped into it, eventually it happened on my last day so yeah, it did hurt! The jacuzzi and the sauna apparently are not working all day long, from 10:00 am until 6:00pm, I’ve found out only after I asked at the reception. There is an elevator but you can use it only if you want to get down in the lobby. By the way, last 2 times when I used the elevator there was an unpleasant smell of some sort of chews I reckon, can’t say exactly. The hotels in situated next to the port so whenever a big ‘bad ass’ boat comes, you will hear the noise all night long unless you are drunk or tired as f#ck.

Cons: The location is one of the best and worst thing. It is close to everything important in Funchal but it's located in the port which can be noisy during night and early in the evening. Also there is non-hotel restaurant which was a bit noisy every day at least until 1am. This would not be such a problem it the balkony doors seal properly. If they solve this then the hotel would be much better experience.

Pros: Since we were on our honeymoon we got an upgrade to a junior suite! They probably don’t do this every time but it was amazing to have a whole suite to ourselves. The staff was very friendly! The pool was nice and there was some live music on the weekend.

7.1 Good
Pros: Nice and clean pool with a big bar. Nice location. Helpful stuff. Clean bathrooms. Beautiful garden with a lot of birds around the hotel (like in every place on Madiera :) ). WiFi was good.
Cons: Average quality breakfast. What's worse is a relatively small selection, and every day is the same. So, for example, for a week's stay, It's big a minus. Smoking on the room's balcony is allowed so if Your neighbor is smoking than You have a smoke smell in the room. We've got this problem and it was solved by transferring us (not smoker) to another room. Unfortunately, the new one was from the street, not pool side so noise in the early morning was quite big. Swimming pool chairs uncomfortable.
5.8 Okay
Pros: Location and peaceful gardens
Cons: Gardens run down. Need more garden staff. Needs bar service for evenings. Or wine and drinks in the room for puchase.

Cons: I stayed at this hotel around four years ago and think the it has gone slightly downhill. Not what I would really expect from a four star. The breakfast options were unexciting, if you are staying longer than a few days you will want to seek options elsewhere. There needed to be more staff on the omelette/pancake station too as the queues were lengthy at times. I also think it is a bit cheeky to charge for use of the in room safe!

Pros: The breakfast was great - a lot of options available, including full English breakfast, surprisingly. Nice friendly staff at the reception desk and at the restaurant. Sitting in the balcony and looking at the sea beats everything. Microwave oven in the room!

6.7 Good
Pros: The pool area was good. The view but you had to pay extra for. Location.
Cons: Front desk service. No information given on first day. Hiring of a safe. Not four star would only class as a three. Very worn hotel. You could do with a comfortable seating area attached to the bar. Plastic chairs and worn tables. Breakfast lack of variety with plastic dishes small cups.

Cons: The hotel location was not as described - central Funchal is 15 minutes away by bus (definitely not a 10-minute walk) and Formosa beach is on the other side of the town. There's another beach within the walking distance, though. There was no minibar in the room, just an empty fridge that had not been defrosted for ages. If you want to use the safe in the room, you have to pay for it. The plates in the cupboard were greasy. It would be nice to provide a small bottle of washing up liquid, as the cleaning personnel obviously don't bother washing dishes before a new guest arrives. The shower took a long time to warm up, and at first I thought there was no hot water at all. The TV remote had a thick layer of dirt on it. Weird noises coming out of the ventilation duct, even with the AC turned off. Overall, the hotel is in desperate need of a good clean-up and possibly renovation.
5.0 Okay
Pros: The pool bar and location was great
Cons: Parking was a nightmare, after about 8pm all parking spaces were taken meaning you had to either block people in and leave the key at reception or park on the street. This affected our plans as we would rather leave the car to not lose our space. The lifts are old and can take up to 10 minutes to arrive in the morning and only fit 4 people. They will also stop multiple floors on the way down. Breakfast buffet was nothing special and did not look appetising.
