Pestana - Reviews and experiences

My buddy and I just spent some time at this amazing hotel that was surrounded by a bunch of lush palm trees and beautiful flowers. The place had two pools, tennis courts, mini golf, and a playground for the kiddos. Our room was on the 7th floor, which was only a couple floors up from the ground, but it had twin beds and a balcony so it was pretty comfy. The only downside was the bathroom had glass walls and no door, which wasn't ideal for sharing with a friend. We just used the blinds they had, though. The hotel staff were awesome, super helpful and kind the whole time. We were pleasantly surprised to find out we could have asked for a room with a regular bathroom. The food there was great, lots of different options for everyone. Even with the bathroom situation, we had a great time at the hotel.

Just came back from staying at this cool old building in Palmela. The rooms were so cozy, with a big comfy bed and everything was super clean. Breakfast was amazing, but I wasn't too crazy about the dinner options. The people at the front desk were really helpful and nice. The building has an awesome view and is in a great location, but just a heads up, you might have to work those leg muscles with a steep walk up the hill to check out the town.

I stayed at a 5-star hotel recently and I gotta say, I was pretty let down by the whole thing. The service just wasn't up to par and I even found cockroaches in my room - yikes! The food wasn't great either, with flies buzzing around the dining area. I think there are way better places to stay on the island, even in the 3 or 4-star range, that provide better service and food.

I recently stayed at a hotel for 2 weeks and I gotta say, it was a pretty awesome experience. The staff there were so nice and always willing to help out. The location of the hotel was just stunning, with some great views to enjoy. The prices at the bar were fair and the room was really nice, although the bed was a bit too soft for me and it made it a bit uncomfortable to sleep. The food was okay, I really liked the salad choices but some dishes were a little bland. The desserts though, they were on point - so yummy! Breakfast had a wide range of options, although I missed having a classic full English breakfast. Overall, I'd definitely recommend staying there and I would go back, just with a firmer mattress next time!

My hotel stay was a disaster, eh! First, the toilet didn't flush, then a big cockroach appeared and was devoured by ants before they got rid of it. And to top it off, I was locked out of my room cause the key didn't work, and the air conditioner was acting up. Not worth the money at all, but at least the location was great, eh!

Our hotel stay was amazing! As soon as we got there, we were welcomed so warmly and felt right at home. Checking in was quick and easy, and our room was even better than we expected - big, stylish, and super clean. The next morning, my family had a tasty breakfast with lots of choices, and the hotel was so peaceful which made our stay so relaxing. We had such a great time at this hotel and would definitely suggest it to anyone wanting a fancy stay in the city.

I recently stayed at a hotel near Funchal and it was amazing. The hotel was super clean, the staff were all really nice and helpful, and there was always a good variety of food and drinks. The location was beautiful and quiet, and the free shuttle bus to Funchal was a nice bonus. Overall, I couldn't find a single thing to complain about during my stay.

The hotel was nice, really close to downtown. The food was decent, but the desserts didn't look appealing at all. It was a bummer that there were no tea bags in the room and the pool bars were closed on occasion. Despite that, Madeira was amazing!
