The room itself was nice and had a great see view. The hotel is advertised as two connected properties with spa amenities but in reality they are pretty disjointed and quite a bit of walk from each other. The spa reservation system is not great because there is no online way to reserve a massage and one needs to go to a remote reception spot to reserve it between 10 am and 7 pm (which is prime time NOT to be at the hotel). So we ended up skipping it because of that and also the prices were relatively high.

The breakfast was decent but not spectacular and the entire hotel seemed to cater mostly to older German demographic who seemed to complain quite a lot about things which didn't add to good vibes exactly.

The grounds were pretty good and the private beach seemed great to use in the summer but we were there in March and it was too cold to swim. The biggest issue was the gym/pool/sauna area that is apparently open to people outside the hotel and it was ridiculously crowded and as a result looked uncared for. The staff was ok but nothing special and actually couldn’t accommodate a few simple requests.

The only suggestion I'd make is when you book the pictures you see of the hotel with sea access is the sister hotel the Galomar. I thought we had booked this. Doesnt really matter as Galomar is literally 5 mins walk away.

The room AC was not working during our stay. The hotel could not fix it and we could not sleep properly during our stay. The room given to us was a pigeon hole with a distant view of the sea and was totally different from the pictures shown before booking. Buffet dinner was terrible with a server named Sonia showing bad attitude.
While the view outside the hotel and possibly some rooms may have good views, it was a very disappointing experience. Will not go back there or recommend it to anyone else either.

Room itself was really clean and in perfect condition, good layout, comfortably firm bed and pillows. Parking could be a bit of struggle if checking in late, there’s only a strip of parking spots along the side of the building, approximately 25-30.

NO PARKING NO PARKING NO PARKING
The hotel overall is beautiful, relaxing and if you are looking to spend days inside the hotel maybe it is worth it. To be honest, I regret staying here because of the parking and food. If you go to madeira you are on adventure mode, like hiking, walking, and driving a lot. You just want to arrive relax and rest, not having to stress about finding parking knowing what you paid for the stay. I was lucky enough to find almost every day (keep in mind it was low season), but I parked in a random spot twice and hoped the car wouldn't get towed. The food is not the best, it is better to go to a local restaurant to eat. Breakfast looks like they used some of the food from last night. The omelette station was worth it. Coffee is an absolute no (if you’re a serious coffee lover.)

A really nice resort, great breakfast and dinner buffet. Easy to take a bus to Funchal. The rooms were clean, and had a cool layout.

My only complaint is that the room as too warm and humid for me to get a good nights sleep which negatively impacted my ability to get over the jetlag and enjoy the start of my vacation. The thermostat is the room does not change the temperature of the room, only displays the current temperature which, with the AC running all night showed the room temperature at 24°C.

I really really enjoyed my stay. Hotel was clean and quiet and served my needs perfectly. Hotel staff was able to arrange for a rental car for me when I arrived to the hotel. Free parking was very limited but, I was always able to find paid street parking not far from the hotel. So not really a big deal.

The hotel staff are superb. A special acknowledgement to Barbara Gomez who is so kind, professional, always had a smile on her face and offered great suggestions for things to do in Madeira during my stay.

My only “complaint” which is minor is the temperature of the hot water in my room . I like the option of very hot water when it comes to bathing/showering. The water in my room was barely lukewarm. Outside of this minor issue, I would most certainly would stay at this hotel again.

It's a 4 star hotel indeed

Positives:
- staff is friendly
- location is nice and quiet
- activities like yoga, diving, hiking trips
- landscaped area around the hotel
- it's actually two hotels so more facilities
- sommelier is amazing. Great wine tasting.
- nice to see solar panels and water saving

Improvements:
- a proper coffee at breakfast
- breakfast smoothies always run out
- a sewage smell in all the lifts and toilets
- no free water offered in the room
- beach towels refreshed only for a fee
- blue bar only has basic snack food
- masseuse at spa doesn't seem to know what they're doing. Also, a 60min massage lasted for 40min.
- asked to pay upfront upon check-in
- check-in staff should make it clear whether your room is ready for early check in or not. We were led to believe we can check-in 2 hours early but our room wasn't actually ready which we only found out after 20min of paperwork. Not upset about the wait, only about the bad communication and expectation management - last thing you need when you haven't slept all night.

Let's keep this short... Room 3021

Hi. This is actually my first review as I don't ever take the time to write things good or bad but I was really astonished by the customer service at this hotel. At the end of the day this was a 4* hotel with 5*s being few and far between in Canico, so I thought we couldn't go wrong. To keep things brief, everyday there was an ant infestation in our room, on the floors, coming out of a gap in the tiles in the shower and occasionally crawling all over our beds. each time we reported this to reception, they would \"send\" someone to have a look. But when we cam back to our room still we had this problem. Our sheets were never changed and we were there for 5 days. There was a small vent under our patio door which meant lizards came in and out. Everything took long with this hotel - i.e. I ordered a hair drier for my hair, this came over an hour later when I was fully dressed to go out so I left my hair wet. Also you have to walk through a nest of flies every time we left our room. My partner is not one to complain and neither am I, but on leaving we asked to speak to a manager. We spoke to the Manager on duty (this was on Sunday) who told us the hotel manager will speak to us before we leave on Mon morning. The hotel manager just apologized and said we are aware we have this problem with the rooms in this area. Didn't offer anything, not even to pick up the two bottles of water we had on our tab! Awful customer service and awful room.
