A real experience of Madeira
This Quinta was charming. Not in the general tourist area it was perfect for walking with the Lavadas right on the doorstep. The staff were lovely. The only downside was the fact coffee and tea are not provided in the rooms. The food was very good but not large helpings.

The place to stay if you love peace and quiet
Lovely place set in beautiful grounds with views of the mountains. Staff could not be more friendly and helpful. Visit the Sunday market in the village. You need a car to get about if you stay here

Nice garden and good value
I stayed there for two nights. Staff were friendly and helpful. Check in and out was efficient since there are only six rooms at the property. Room is spacious, clean, and quiet but nothing fancy. If you wanted to be away from the city and crowds, this is a good choice. They dont have staff there 24/7 so be aware that if you cant arrive before 10pm, contact them ahead of time so they will be prepared. GPS is not very helpful on this island. The best way to get there is to take ER239 and then ER207. Otherwise you might be on the roller coaster type of tiny roads. 15 mins driving from the airport.

Great forest hotel
This is a great hotel for those who want a true Madeira experience and is perfect base to explore the whole island. It feels more like a home than a hotel, that has great food, staff and a warm atmosphere. It is about 30 mins by car from Funchal and a rental is a must. But to most things on the island, this is recommended anyway as there is so much to explore and parking is cheap or free where ever you go.

A class act
If you are looking for somewhere with the comforts of a top hotel, but the friendly atmosphere of a guesthouse this is the place for you. Lovely owners and staff. Set in a large garden away from the road, yet just a five minute drive to the local village with and a twenty minute drive to the coast, it offers peace and quiet for anybody seeking to simply chill out in the beautiful garden ..... not a yapping dog nor a ghetto blaster to be heard anywhere! The only caution for anybody with mobility problems is the steep cobbled path to the 4 annexed rooms, so it would be a smart move to request a room in the main house. The altitude means that there is sometimes more cloud cover during the day than at the coast, but it has the benefit of cool nights for sleeping. All in all a fabulous experience.
