8.6/10 Excellent! (46 reviews)

Villa Alto is a lovely old house set high up in the hills above Ponta do Sol. With beautiful views. You will definitely need a hire car. The Staff are wonderful and work very hard to make you feel welcome. The breakfast is amazing, all freshly made from scratch. Sadly there was no dinner service available during our stay. Our room (no 9)was small and needed some TLC. The weather during our stay was stormy and the room was cold and damp. The curtains were stained and hanging from the rails. The sash windows need attention/replacement as all three were exposed to the wind and rain. We would definitely return to Villa Alto and hope for better weather.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (70 reviews)

The room, which contained a kitchen area with a fridge, opened out onto a balcony then onto a well maintained garden. It has a lovely pool area. The whole complex is surrounded by beautiful gardens. The downside is that it was quite a way up steep roads from Funchal
