Perfekt stay - very friendly staff and very clean and functional apartment. We are definitely coming back next time we visit Funchal.

Immaculately kept residence in a very good area with excellent transport links into Funchal centre. Very friendly and helpful staff and the rooms are very comfortable, spacious and have great views. The buffet breakfast was plentiful and delicious and the waiting staff were helpful and pleasant and the main pool and pool areas were spacious with plenty of sun beds available. Very enjoyable stay and we would love to return one day in the near future.

Travelled with toddler and the property is vast and has lots of things to do to keep them entertained. Good for families and close to the seafront.

The hotel and pool areas were exceptional. The breakfast offered a wide choice and the seating areas were delightful. The staff were
We were upgraded to an apartment for our stay and although the accommodation was spacious and comfortable, the room was dark and the balcony was opposite a road which could be noisy at times.
Having said that, I would still recommend this hotel as a great place to stay but in our experience the accommodation upgrade was at the expense of the location of the room.
5.0
We had a nice stay here. Food was good and fresh and cooking personell very friendly. The rooms were also nice and clean. The service at the restaurant and reception could be improved however.
4.0
The hotel is great and can’t fault the staff, polite friendly and helpful. I did loose a day though because of a late easyJet flight also booked through Expedia. Alas it’s easier to talk to a brick wall than Expedia about this, not even sure they are real people might as well be BOTs, so next time will book direct with hotel and airlines.

This is a wonderful hotel in a beautiful location.
5.0
Beautiful, beautiful hotel, lovely gardens and facilities. Room was well equipped with everything we could need including spare towels for pool/spa. Staff very friendly and helpful. We had a room facing the road which was noisy but it was changed with no fuss to quiet inward facing. Fantastic choice and quality of breakfast. Half hour walk into Funchal which we preferred to irregular bus service. Large supermarket close by if needed.

Amazing property with great amenities, very good location, with access to central Funchal on your doorstep. Could not recommend enough. Thank you

Excellent accommodation and very helpful and friendly staff
4.0
Very comfortable, quiet, and clean with excellent staff. However, a bit remote from the centre of town, particularly now that they have ceased their in-house shuttle service.
5.0
With the "bang for the bucks" place to stay at, we can only recommend you to stay at the Residence. Accommodations, pool area as well as the restaurants are excellent. Family with kids will have a nice week by the poolside, but dont expect kids playground/activities. Evening entertainment feelt old and dated for us (mid 40s of age), possibly aimed for the +65.
We surely will be back at this premises again soon.

My husband and I had a great stay at The Residence. The breakfast buffet was vast and delicious. The property is beautiful to walk around. Although you cannot access the ocean from the property, the views are amazing and you can easily access the water nearby. Lots of beautiful walking areas nearby as well as restaurants. The hotel pools were lovely as were the restaurants and free entertainment. The staff was helpful and the facility was immaculate. Our room had a beautiful room, was clean and comfortable amd had amazing water pressure. We would definitely return.

We enjoyed our stay, especially with the room upgrade. The view from the hotel was breathtaking. The hotel is central to everything.
3.0
It was excellent. The location, staff friendliness and efficiency was of the higher order. The buffet breakfast and dinner was fantastic the like of which we have not seen before.
4.0
Everything was great but in our room was very loud at night.
We prefer to go to sleep not late to wake up before sunrise. It was impossible to sleep before midnight.
I believe there should be a choice of rooms in terms of noise level preferably at arrival.
Otherwise it was great.

This is our third stay at Porto Mare, and its just as good as we remember. Spacious and clean rooms, lovely breakfast buffet, great facilities for adults and kids. Our two year old especially loves the pools and playground.
5.0
We like the pools, breakfast and the buffet diner with folklore performance. Easy access to Funchal by public bus.The apartment was spacious and had big balcony. There was nothing which we didn't like. Excellent place to stay.

Stunning interior with magnificent gardens and pool area. Staff all very professional and friendly. Great choice for breakfast and change of theme if you want to eat in the evening. Happy hour a bonus and entertainment in the bar was really good. Great location - a gentle walk (no hills) into town in about 30/40 minutes plus bus stop located just outside the main entrance with regular service.

2.5
Lovely hotel with great facilities, including a really well equipped gym and a good choice of pools. The buffet breakfasts had a wide selection of hot food, as well as continental food, including cheese, meats and salads. We were upgraded on arrival to a very spacious and well equipped 2 bed apartment which had comfortable beds. The happy hour at one of the hotel bars is excellent value. Well worth the stay and would happily return.
2.5
My Husband and I stayed at The Residence in February 2019. The apartment was spacious and immaculately clean. The bed was very comfortable and we loved sitting out on the balcony during the evenings. The hotel grounds are beautiful. It is lovely being in Funchal but not staying right in the centre. The walk into central Funchal is easy and takes around 30 minutes. The surrounding area in Porto Mare is beautiful - there is a lovely walk along the coast and there are plenty of good restaurants and bars nearby. You are spoilt for choice. There is also a supermarket very close by the aparthotel so that was very convenient for having self-catering facilities. Breakfast was very good - lots of choice. We would definitely stay at The Residence again when returning to Madeira in the future.

We have stayed at The Residence on a previous visit to Madeira. This time it was in one of the Pool view rooms rather than a garden apartment. The ambience is just as good as it ever was but this time the tranquillity was disturbed by noisy neighbours and doors slamming.

2nd visit in 12 months,there will be many more.Residence ticks all the boxes for high standards,staff,location etc.
5.0
Such a beautiful setting with well manicured extensive gardens. Everything was spotless. What’s not to like with several pools, bars and restaurants to hand. Free transport into the old town, but if R&R rather than exploring is your thing, you wouldn’t need to leave the hotel complex. There is a green ethos of recycling which is good, too.
