Affordable Island Paradise
A great environment at Quinta da Penha de Franca for our 7 nights in Madiera. Relaxed and uncrowded with a very good breakfast and an excellent cocktail bar. Madeira is an affordable Island paradise which improves every year.
Stay in Funchal and visit Camara De Lobo and Machico.

This property has 2 sites we stayed at the one by the sea
Quinta Penha de Franca Mar
So glad we booked in November to have a room with a Seaview.
The room was very spacious the only issue is that it could with a refurb especial in the bathroom.
However it is still serviceable and we paid a lot less compared to other 4 stars. It is a fab location to explore Funchal & the island.
Breakfast buffet was excellent
Lots of choice & freshly cooked omelette if you wanted
Staff were very friendly & helpful
Overall we had a great week & enjoyed our stay at this hotel

The hotel was situated on the sea front, with amazing uninterrupted sea views. The hotel had a lovely large swimming pool and easy access for those wishing to swim in the sea. The hotel also boasted a wonderful seafood restaurant. It was a flat leisurely stroll along the promenade into Funchal.

The close proximity to the city center. Walkable
Didn't like the Loud Dancing music on two of the six nights I stayed there! Why the loud dancing music appropriate in a Disco or a club not in a quiet garden setting where most of the guests were in their 60's or 70's

Disappointed
Hotel is in need of a revamp. Bathrooms and bedrooms are clean but need updating.
Threadbare carpet to stairs. No umbrellas around top pool. Dining/bar areas not particularly inviting, hence Joes bar nearly always empty as cold and uncomfortable.
The old buildings are in need of maintenance and the outdoor seating breakfast/dinner area could do with tidying up, some sort of netted structure over kitchen that looks awful.
Breakfast staff/reception staff dont seem particularly happy and no welcome on arrival or during stay.
Warm breakfast food not inviting, all processed, didnt touch any of hot food all week, just not inviting.
Was probably prestigious in its day but no longer.
Good location but noisy around pool due to building work nearby.

Excellent staff, very relaxed atmosphere. Good selection of food for breakfast. Hotel very clean and within walking distance of the old town. The room was spacious but a little sparse, hotel layout quite quirky, lots of different small buildings. Evening meal tasty and liked extra touches, small appetiser and drink were complimentary. Sister hotel whose facilities we could use was over a footbridge across a road and down in a lift, not good if like me you dont like heights. Overall a very good property.

Rather disappointing
Rarely do I give negative opinions, but it was very disappointing experience.
1) No iron and iron board provided - hotel offers you ironing for a quote of EUR 2,50 per each T-shirt;
2) Cockroaches in the room;
3) Some kind of party (maybe wedding?) and screams nearby during all night Sat-Sun;
4) Breakfast was always late - when we came at 7:30 there was no food provided, the staff was bringing it until 8 am each day;
5) Awful smell in the room, especially from wardrobe
Positives - free, big parking, good location and beautiful view from the pool and from the room as well.

Doors on level 0 rooms were not easy to unlock. When unlocking patio doors unable to re lock. Only a plate to put in place it couldn’t be fully opened by an intruder. Higher room would have better of sea views. Lower room you could only see sea standing. We enjoyed our stay.
