Just returned from 2 weeks over Christmas 2011. We were looking for a shorthaul winter sunshine break but not the usual mediterrainean venues, thus the semi tropical island of Madeira was ideal. Very impressed with this magical islands variety of flora and breath taking mountainous vistas and comfortable wintersunshine. As a couple we were looking for an oasis of calm... More

We were here for a week at the beginning of December 2011. We booked a one bedroom apartment which was really big (one bedroom with balcony, bathroom with bathtub, kitchenette separate from the living room, living room with balcony). There was plenty of space for 4 people. The hotel is clean. The price was very good for such a big... More

Stayed for 2 weeks November 2011 selfcatering, 1 bedroom apartment with nice sized rooms, sitting room with table and 4 chairs, separant kitchen, and bathroom.And 2 small balconies 1 off the sitting room and 1 off the bedroom. We found the hotel staff were very polite and very friendly. We would recommend this hotel to anyone More

We stayed here for 2 weeks in October 2011 on a bed and breakfast basis in an apartment which had a sitting room, bedroom and separate kitchenette. There were also two balconies with sea views. The accommodation is a little tired and worn looking and in need of refurbishment, also note there is no air-con in the rooms. The breakfast... More

For this price this is good hotel in Madeira. Our family (parents and teengirl) lived in 2 rooms with small kitchen and bathroom (and 2 balcons) two weeks with a breakfast for 878 euros. Town center is 2,5-3 km far, in weekdays hotel offers a bus for free. Breakfast is almost OK, pool is big enough, staff is kind. If... More

I would certainly come back here the staff was very friendly so don't be put off by other reviews on here because it was fantastic i was at first but gave it a try and it was amazing experience. The food was lovely fresh fish every night different types though also there was other chooses too especially for kids if... More

We recently stayed here, but never again. We’re insisting on compensation of a full refund. I’m not prepared to mention to many positives about this hotel, as they’re easily negated by the negatives. We had the unfortunate company of an under 13s national girls basketball team staying at the same time, pretty much unsupervised, who, “every night” thought it was... More

Good location and reasonably priced. Room clean but the bed need to be replaced, when lay down it sinks in the middle. Breakfast has good selection, dinner not so great though, but for 10 Euros..... Unfortunaly we also had the experience with the same basket ball group. But all in all not too bad a stay for what we paid. More

Just come back from staying at the Dorisol, room very clean and lots of draws for clothes. Maid service everyday and towels changed as many times as you wanted. Hotel provides towels for the pool area, just need to ask. Good for a basic cheap holiday - only bad points are - Air con.did not work and if you have... More
