Top Funchal Hotel Reviews
Porto Mare Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"We love Porto Mare and have stayed a few times before. The facilities are great and the staff are very welcoming! The breakfast buffet is the BEST!
This time we bought the three dinners at Atlantida restaurant, all of which we fab but the fish and seafood night was the highlight!
Our room was clean and had a lovely view over the gardens
We’ll be back in 2026 :)"

Allegro Madeira - Adults Only - Member of Barceló Hotel Group
10/10 Excellent
"Right from check in to check out, everything was fantastic! The staff, especially, Nadia were friendly and very helpful. We had made a decision to arrive 3 days early to Madeira and when we arrived, our driver (booked by the hotel) was waiting at the airport, check in was seamless and we were able to upgrade our first 2 nights in order to stay in our room for the full 5 nights. Location was perfect, lots of dining/entertainment options within steps. And downtown Funchal is about a 40 min walk but well worth it. We used Uber as well a few times. Nadia went above and beyond - we were on our way out to dinner on Saturday evening and asked about renting a car the next day and when we got back, everything was arranged for us for the next morning. The breakfast buffet was great, usually busiest between 915-945 but they were still adding fresh and hot items each day just before 10am. Many options!
The rooftop bar was fabulous for a sunset cocktail - bartender was awesome! The pool area is lovely but it was too windy/chilly for us to use it. We also didn't take advantage of the spa. Top notch service and comfortable beds!"
Tui Blue Gardens - Adults Only - Savoy Signature
10/10 Excellent
"Loved it got a free upgrade.
My adult daughter and I enjoyed the pool, breakfast, gym and other facilities.
Did the Madeira tasting evening which was yummy, with plenty of food, and wine, well worth it.
Car park was a little tricky required reversing in, if arriving back later in the evening, but that added to the adventure of the holiday.
Thank you "
