Great hotel with indoor pool, however despite being heated , the temperature was quite cold.
Other than that, hotel is fantastic and very beautiful.

Nice pool area with good availability of lounge chairs and umbrellas. Breakfast buffet excellent with lots of food choices. Great location with many restaurants nearby.
Balcony nice and scenic but only downsides were the limited privacy due to the balcony layouts and noise from activities below in the bar area.

This hotel was truly special. The decor was very chic. It catered to a more trendy, youthful traveler. Though, families found great pleasure here as well. Regret not staying here longer. Excellent stay.

I recently stayed at Hotel Baía Azul in Madeira for four nights. Overall, the experience was pleasant, but there were a few aspects that could be improved.

Pros:
•Spacious and Clean Room: The room was large and maintained to a high standard of cleanliness.
•Excellent Location: The hotel’s location is ideal, offering easy access to local attractions and amenities.
•Friendly Staff: The hotel staff were courteous and exhibited a friendly demeanor throughout my stay.

Cons:
•Additional Charges for In-Room Safe: I was surprised to find that using the in-room safe incurred an extra fee of €15.
•Unexpected City Tax: Despite booking through Expedia and Agoda, both of which indicated that all fees and taxes were included, I was charged an additional €4 per night as a city tax upon arrival.
•Breakfast Beverages: The fruit juices served at breakfast did not taste fresh, and the quality of the coffee was disappointing.
•Tea Bag Replenishment: While a selection of tea bags was provided on the first day, they were not replenished on subsequent days.
•Balcony Access Issue: The room featured a beautiful terrace, but the reception did not activate our key card for terrace access until the last day, which was an inconvenience.

In summary, while Hotel Baía Azul offers comfortable accommodations in a prime location with attentive staff, attention to these details would enhance the overall guest experience.

Excellent hotel. Beautiful area and pool area was lovely and clean. The night porter that checked us in after a diverted flight was very friendly and offered us some food before the breakfast area even opened for thr morning. Staff throughout were very friendly. Only that the hotel was booked out we would have stayed at the

Stay here if you want:
- nice pools & views
- elegant hotel facilities
- quantity over quality breakfast
- unfriendly service (at reception, remaining employees are friendly)
- construction work in front of rooms that are 'mountain view'
- no spa access \"because of covid\" (surprisingly spa of all other hotels on Madeira are open)
- no free parking

5-Star Luxury in a great 4-Star Hotel

Always wanted to stay at this hotel and I’ll certainly be going back. Beautiful cliff-side setting with gorgeous views, sun terrace, on-site spa and gym, great pools - loved it. Having to pre-book limited breakfast times and use of the gym was annoying but this was a Covid-secure measure as the hotel was fully booked during my stay. You wouldn’t regret staying here. Highly recommend!

Loved just about everything. A fully remodeled hotel with an amazing interior design. Great views. Super clean. Great water pressure. Location and access to bus line and the West side of Funchal.

Beds a little on stiff side but linen was a good grade. AC stuck on \"heat\" and customer service was terrible with correcting the issue and accommodating. Their response was to turn it off and \"just open the window.\"

Likes. - lovely location with terrific sea views if you take the right room.
Efficient, friendly reception staff. Comfortable room with facilities provided clean and in working order.
Free shuttle bus 3 times a day to avoid the forty minute walk into Funchal. Convenient for some nice local restaurants and Supermarket.
Dislikes. - no information about hotel facilities or area in the room. No iron. Had to buy one locally. Charged 13 euros for the use of the safe in the room.
Breakfast was only 2/3 star. Coffee and juice from machines was completely undrinkable. Ended up just having fruit and toast and then going back to room to drink coffee bought locally.

Lovely hotel, great location, excellent service

We arrived into a large, light, airy reception with welcoming staff, a great start to our holiday. Our room was spacious, had ocean views and the bed was large and comfortable. It was also pleasing to see tea making facilities as these aren't always available outside the UK.

Breakfast was buffet style and excellent. I enjoyed using the gym although there could have been a few more weights and a couple of mats.

The regular complimentary shuttle bus into the city centre was a bonus

Nice hotel with great sea views

Very pleasant. Was quiet, decent location and very comfortable. Lots of decent restaurants nearby with many more in Funchal (20 min walk or 5 mins on bus). Venture off the main street though. Lots of good place off side streets.
Not great deal to see in Funchal but recommend the cable car. The sightseeing tour is a bit of a waste of time and not too cheap- £15. Would highly recommend the island bus tour- various ones a valuable. I took the tour covering both sides of the island. Interesting guide and nice lunch included for £40. You see more than you would in a hire car- and the roads can be a nightmare !
Very restful and enjoyable week. But one week was enough.

Fantastic hotel with stunning sea view

Beautiful setting, we chose a room with a balcony with sea view which was stunning and a real plus. Extremely friendly staff. Breakfast was rather average, coffee machines often had no milk and the air con in the room wasn't cold enough, other than that an amazing, idyllic place to stay. Would definitely go again!!!

Amelioration buffet

Concernant la prise du petit déjeuner en cette période de Covid, je suis d’accord pour respecter les mesures sanitaires mais la procédure mise en place est assez contraignante.
L’obligation faite d’être servi au buffet par un serveur entraine des ralentissement, pourquoi ne pas donner la possibilité aux clients la possibilité de se servir avec une pince unique tel que procède le serveur.
De cette façon le client ne touche pas les aliments,le serveur est dédié à la préparation, et la mise en place des différents produits.

Prisvärt, trevligt och modernt ”charterhotell”

Nyrenoverat och fräscht, havsutsikt, trevlig personal. Stor frukostbuffé för dem som gillar det, bjöds även på mousserande vin. Dock kunde kvaliteten på kaffe och juice höjas. Ett stort hotell men under långsäsong (början av nov) inte så mycket gäster att man stördes. För övrigt endast små detaljer att klaga på: handdukar lite väl slitna, saknades kaffe på rummet (men fanns te), inget vin (förutom Madeiravin) i minibaren, utomhuspool ska vara uppvärmd men lite för kall för min smak.

When I book a room with sea view, it is to enjoy the sound of the sea and not to be disturbed till 22h30 by a loud \"music\" performed by third rate \"artists\". I do not see the purpose of all this noise or at least it should be in insulated.

A hotel that have that 5-star hotel atmosphere

I will remember may stay at Hotel Baia Azul. The interior of the lobby and view is stunning. Livemusic makes the atmosphere. You got luggage service and a glass of Madeira wine right when you arrived. I’d especially like to thank a woman in the spa that helped me printing the programme of the Madeira Carnival 2019. Also the happy optimistic guy at the pool bar that greeted you welcome and generally was very kind. The people in the reception also helped me looking at two diffrent rooms on different hights upon request to make me satisfied. Rooms was also more spacious than in general!

Overall - the Baia Azul hotel has very friendly staff, is beautifully renovated and ’Lost into the blue’ is really a proper tag line to what you experience!
