We just came back from our vacation with our daughters and would certainly recommend this hotel. The personnel is very kind and the meals are top notch. The setting of the hotel is particularly great as it is surrounded by impressive gardens. It is a great place to relax. Unfortunately the SPA was under construction when we were there: we... more

Whenever I visit Madiera on business I stay at the Casa Velha do Palheiro. The friendliness of the staff is always apparent and I'm treated as a friend rather than a client, I was even invited to a staff dinner during one visit. The accomodation is very comfortable with everything one needs close at hand. The standard of cuisene found... more

We was looking for a nice relaxing place and was recommended the Casa Velha. From the moment we arrived we did just that, relax. The standard throughout the hotel is high and I personally enjoyed the setting in amongst the amazing plant life. I don't know my trees very well but there are some around the gardens that I have... more

My recent stay here was just the right mix of relaxation and fun. The beautiful mountain setting of this hotel, and in particular its gardens give you no choice but to forget about everything but enjoying your holiday. My friends and I were looked after by the most amiable staff who also really helped us with recommendations for seeing Madeira.... more

To call the Casa Velha anything but perfect would not do it justice. We were on a boys weekend, 6 of us for golf and big game fishing, and I can only say I have never been treated better by a hotel and it's staff. We were collected from the airport dropped at the hotel for a quick change then... more

The Casa Velha is like a hidden oasis set in the hills above Funchal. It has a very relaxing pool area and a fantastic tennis court (where the staff bring out a small table complete with table cloth and silver tray with chilled water while you are playing!). But the best part about it is the beautiful Palheiro Golf Course.... more

Would recommend a stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully sympathetic to the period of the building. The atmosphere was relaxed and peaceful. You really feel like you are getting away from everything when you stay here, like your private, personal escape. Even though im not a golfer, I would truely recommend it for a girly weekend of relaxing... more

After an exceptionally busy summer and moving house at the beginning of August we just had to get away from it all. On the recommendation of good friends we visited the website of Hotel Casa Velha and booked a weeks stay in paradise (aka Madeira island). We were already familiar with Madeira having spent a week in Funchal on the... more
