Hotel Quinta Das Vistas

A very big thank you to all the staff at Quinta Funchal Gardens. The facilities were amazing and we had everything we needed. Very comfortable room and the view from the balcony was great. We really enjoyed the breakfast buffet each morning and the evening meal was top quality too. All of the staff went the extra mile to make our engagement evening extra special for us, an evening we won't forget. Thank you all again.

Try it, I won't say a thing. Our social and mental batteries are filled with kindness, caring and loving environment. I am so glad.

We left feeling truly relaxed after a special week at this hotel. After sleeping soundly in our really quiet and comfortable room, we enjoyed a fabulous breakfast every morning on the terrace, with views down towards Funchal and the ocean. The terrace is also perfect for an evening glass of wine after a day exploring Funchal or simply enjoying the beautiful hotel gardens and swimming pools. The staff are very friendly, and we look forward to coming back to see them again!

The setting of this hotel and the views are incredible- from rooms and all the terraces. To have the wonderful breakfast outside looking at a complete panorama of Funchal Bay is unforgettable and these outstanding elements almost made us forget the few improvements (carpets need replacing) that Barcelo still need to make ... it's a work in progress... when they reach the end and it is perfect, rooms will probably be much more expensive. Staff are outstanding- Liliana who was so patient helping us find the best room for my disability that would also be perfect for our 20th anniversary. She also organised a treat for us on the day. There was a welcome card from Laura the Guest Experience Manager with Madeiran specialities on arrival & complimentary bottle of water each day. Staff in the restaurant- Newman, Helland and Alexandra are attentive, professional but so personal & friendly. Loved the casual cream clothing... Rooms are spacious- bed and mattress the most comfortable ever with high quality sheets and pillows. Balcony lovely, view exceptional. We had a very stained carpet- needs replacing but probably on the management's list of tweaks. Pool is amazing for people with mobility issues- ramps in both indoirs and out. Pool temperature far too cold both in and out. Views from it spectacularand gardens surrounding all incredible just needs to be warmer. Very modern changing rooms work well for after checkout. A superb stay- very chilled and quiet- we can't thank you enough. Please make pool warmer that was the only thing that we were bothered about.

It reopen from juni 2024 with new management. Totally renovated. I stayed her for my holiday. Amazing view, Nice and with styl decorated rooms, Great, friendly and helpful staff. Food is good. They make you feel special and welcome. Good place to stay and explore Madeira

This venue Quinta Funchal Gardens is a re-incarnation of Las Vistas Hotel.. Now owned by Barcelo Group it has retained its sense of Portuguese Quinta charm. I believe 70+ rooms Adults Only. Atmosphere/Ambiance Soft quiet relaxing streamed music throughout. Lounge areas consisting of comfortable tradional armchairs/rugs/soft lighting.. a piano platform (no performances during our visit in January) The Hotel seemed to be under occupied..we only saw probably 20 different people during a ten day visit...a very quiet and peaceful time of year after the Christmas and New Year festivities which I understand attracted a full house. Indoor and outdoor and Spa facilities fully functioning and delightful. We reserved a "panoramic" view King bed room and the view from the 2nd floor balcony was truly panoramic with views over Funchal City up to Monte and down to the Atlantic. Please note however this side of the Hotel does not benefit from sun hours on the balcony ..this is easily rectified by strolling around a semi circular perimeter overlooking Funchal/Harbour & Ocean with both pools situated facing all day sunshine East to West. The Staff were all friendly helpful and efficient. Location is up in the hills overlooking Funchal but if you are looking to pop out for a local shop for water/snacks etc it is in that sense a bit isolated because of the terrain. Bus routes are around nearby but we opted for a simple taxi into Funchal for less than 20 euros return for convenience and enjoyed lunches in Funchal together with a cable car trip to Monte Palace gardens and the Old Town and Fort in Funchal. All said..our overall experience of the Hotel and Holiday ( we stayed on a Half Board basis) and the food should be rated @ 9/10 . If you want a quiet relaxing and scenically jawdropping holiday then it's worth a visit. Keith Richardson Visit 10th＞20th Jan 2025
