Imaculado Coracao de Maria Vacations from $847

The staff (housekeeping, reception, hospitality, even maintenance) were top notch; people who appear to have found their niche in providing a welcoming, comfortable environment. The location and amenities were also great. Being built on the side of a cliff, the view from every room we visited was difficult to beat. The drawbacks of this hotel are (1) limited free parking (2) a location that’s a bit further from downtown amenities than some other options; requiring a car or using the convenient city bus (3) some slightly annoying cost management practices, e.g. locking the minibar unless a 200€ deposit was paid, providing only 1 pillow per guest (4) Pool access requires use of stairs, which might be a consideration for guests with limited mobility. On balance, a terrific place with terrific staff. We would definitely stay again.

An amazing stay, well maintained property , good food options and wonderful staff. Will definitely go again.

I liked the fact the hotel was quiet and tucked out of the way from the hustle and bustle of central Funchal with good views and surrounding scenery. My room was very spacious and comfortable (superior double) and worth every penny. The staff were all very welcoming and most helpful with any requests such as booking taxis or giving advice about local activities and trips. My only slight criticism is that they had no USB charging points in the room but luckily I did bring two adapter plugs with me so was easily able to charge my various devices - plenty of spare sockets in the room.

The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. I loved the beautiful flowers throughout the property. The breakfast was always delicious with happy friendly servers.

Nice, quiet place. Do not need aircondition in October as we were. Only two single beds option. Good transportation, close to highway. Layout of apartament very nice. Yes, I recomend this place.
