Quinta das Malvas - Quinta de Santa Luzia

It’s well positioned outside of the main part of Funchal - though Funchal is all Hill. The property is old style and very well presented

The bed was a little too firm.

The property is looking amazing. It takes you back to the period it was built, around the 1800. It has a nice view from the garden, but a steep road to get to the parking place. However, that’s standard for Funchal.

Everything was great

Breakfast was really good, and the views and surroundings were fantastic. The staff were wonderful, and the room was clean. Happy to hear the house story and cheat chat with the staff.

The lack of air conditioning in the humid weather made sleeping a little challenging at night, with only a fan in the room.

Our stay at Quinta das Malvas was one of the highlights of our trip to Madeira. The house has a very special atmosphere - elegant, quiet, and full of history, but at the same time warm and comfortable. It felt much more personal than a typical hotel stay. The room was spacious and very pleasant, and we really enjoyed the views and the peaceful surroundings. Breakfast was fresh and enjoyable, with local touches that made every morning feel relaxed. A special thank you to Margarida for her kindness and helpful recommendations. She made us feel truly welcome and gave us useful tips for exploring the island. The location worked very well for us, especially with a car, as it was easy to start our day trips around Madeira. We would happily stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable place to stay.
