Hotels near Pico Ruivo peak, Boaventura

The breakfasts were amazing and the property itself is well situated for beautiful sea views and easy access to some of the best hikes on the island. Staff members were also extremely pleasant and very helpful. I highly recommend staying there.

The View is the best! Night and day! We just couldn't get enough! The hotel has many facilities (it's also a spa after all). Beds were comfy, shower also nice. Breakfast was pretty good to start the day. The path going down to Curral das Freiras looks challenging, but it's entertaining and very much worth it (and back!).

Great place and location on Madeira, just 15 minutes by car or taxi from the city center of Funchal. You can also get there by bus or cable car, which is also just around the corner. We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel, especially valuing the relaxed and friendly atmosphere, quietness, and amazing views. You are looking on Funchal, mountains and the ocean just sitting on your balcony.  All the staff members, in particular the receptionists, did their best to make our stay pleasant and comfortable. If you are looking for something special and don’t want to be treated like just a number, or if you are not a big fan of the all-inclusive concept like we aren’t, then this could be something for you. It feels a bit like being part of a historical novel. The hotel is located in a former estate, and a lot of its classic, glorious interior was kept in the general areas: In the hotel lobby, bar, and restaurant, they had original paintings, furniture, and other decor details. The beautiful garden, swimming pool, decent breakfast, and spacious room with a big balcony made everything just perfect for us. It was practical that there was a small fridge in the room, and there are a couple of good restaurants/cafes very close to the hotel. Last but not least: Don’t miss all the sights in this area (the tropical and botanical gardens, 2 cable cars, and carreiros).

Comfortable room, everything spotless clean. Kind staff, plenty choices for breakfast, nice dinner. Definitely recommended.

Food was delicious, it is very clean, peaceful, ther botanical garden is amazing, not crowded, spacious rooms…

Beautiful view, big and nice room, friendly service
