We spent almost a week in Madeira. The hotel has two parts - garden resort and village resort. It was a little bit complicated to find a breakfast room first day, but the breakfast was great - and we had a great start every morning. The room was spacious with a small kitchenette but our room was located on the... More

Stayed with friends in their time share appartment in November 2011. Good location, close to city, about 15 mins walking. We had an appartment over looking the harbour which was good, but a little noisy with the road underneath. But the views out weighed the noise!! Lovely hotel, friendly staff and excellent amenities..the gardens are amazing, well kept and always... More

This is not an easy place to get to from the U.S. With delays and layovers it was 30 hours door to door. We traded a timeshare week for a week at the Miramar. What a great property in a great location. Walking distance to both Funchal and the Lido. The venerable Reid's is directly across the street, so you... More

This was our third visit to Maderia and we found that the Miramar/village hotel was located within easy walking distance to the centre of Funchal. All staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel has a relaxing atmosphere with lots of charm. We stayed B&B and the food was excellent and plentiful, though the drinks were a little pricey. We... More

We have often stayed at the Miramar and thoroughly enjoyed our recent visit. We intend to return to the Miramar next year. The Miramar Hotel is set in beautiful gardens and is designed to make full use of the natural setting. The hotel is located just across Estrada Monumental from Reid's. The hotel staff are friendly and most helpful. The... More

This was our second Pestana experience, and after our experience of Pestana in the Algarve earlier in the year, we approached this with some trepidation. We should not have worried. This resort has a fairly typical 4* hotel set-up, together with another set of appartments in the 'Village', both set in the most beautiful gardens. Some facilities were shared, for... More

If you have young children, flotation beds, rubber rings, large balls to throw in the pool hitting young and old with them and if want to let your children run a muck, screaming and pissing naked into the jacuzzi then this is the place for you. Despite the health and safety notice next to the pool this happened every day... More

My family have been coming to this Hotel and staying in the apartments for many years but this was my first visit for 10 years and have really noticed how badly the standards have dropped. 10 years ago this Hotel would have got 5* for everything. The good parts are still the gardens and the overall cleanliness. The service by... More

We stayed in this hotel fot a fortnight. We had chosen B&B. We got a beautiful room with sight on the beautiful garden. Very friendly and professional staff. Breakfast was very good indeed with plenty of choice of bread, fruit etc. We hired a car for a few days and we could park it in the hotel garage at very... More
