The hotel is in a stunning position and it is a shame that there is only limited public transport particularly as the walks in the area are amazing.The food is excellent under the new restaurant manager but the hotel is somewhat let down by the reception which is rarely manned and the telephone goes unanswered. This was a particular problem... More

Stayed here for 4 nights over Xmas. We had a lovely room in the annex upper floor log cabin. The room was comfirtable, smelling of pine-wood with a great view over the valley. A heater was provided as the nights tend to be cooler. Being on the upper floor we had no noise problem. A minor issue are the beds... More

We visited this hotel for the second time following our first trip in 2009, this time we came equipped with some netting for the windows and a plug-in mosquito zapper which was a cheap and effective way to stop mosquitos buzzing us at night. Some people have said that the hotel is in need of a little updating and whilst... More

Stayed one night during our recent two week stint in Portugal. Were very much looking forward to a stay in a Pousada and expected much better accommodations. We were told upon check-in that we should not open our windows due to mosquitos. With no air conditioning we were sweltering in the heat and got very little sleep. The place really... More

An amazing weeks holiday in Madeira. All of it totally exceeded our expectations. The hotel was comfortable and a great location for getting to lots of places (Port Moniz,, Ribeira Brava and Funchal). We were on our 'babymoon' and I was 32 weeks pregnant. We had some problems with our hire car overheating and we ended up having to find... More

We stayed at the same time as EagleDK and indeed followed them onto the Jardim Atlantico and we concur with most of their comments. The location is stunning, the staff are some of the best we have come across and the food is superb; those are the good points. On the downside the whole place badly needs updating. The bathrooms...

Advantages of this place are: Location in the middle of beautiful mountain landscape and a cosy/friendly atmosphere with some rustic and patina. We had booked a triple room in order to get three full beds but on arrival we were offered a small, dull and spartaneous hostel-like double room with an uncomfortable extra bed. The friendly female host was very... More
