Good looking hotel. Plenty of space. Swimming pool a good size and freshwater. Plenty of sun beds. We had a large room that came with an extended balcony so plenty of indoor and outdoor space. Staff were all very nice and the food/restaurant was excellent.

Porto Mare is a big resort combining 3 hotels, but its clever design means that nothing feels too big. Not the restaurants, the gardens etc. There is so much to explore, and always another pool to find. The staff were excellent and the food amazing. The location is ideal, walking distance to Funchal central or the promenade through the tunnel to a beautiful fishing village.

First of all, the garden was extraordinary. Jardim botanico da Madeira was nothing compared to this. The pool was although a little bit cold, but beautiful with the palm trees, and the night light. The snacks at the bar next to the pool were surprisingly good. And you have to try the poncha at the other bar during happy hour. The stuff was extremily attentive and kind. The breakfast was delicious, and the restaurant looked great with the pool next to the tables. We loved to start our days there. Our room was with oceanview. First thing in the mornings was to step out onto the balcony to get a view and taste of the ocean and the garden, and to listen to the parrot chirping. The interior design was cosy and really nice. The only thing wich came to our minds was the absence of a cool, signature scent at the hotel lobby. There are pharmacy and shops, plenty of bars and restaurants in walk distance - Il Basilico is the very best -, but if you'd like to get in to the center, I would recommend car or bus.

Location is central to restaurants. It is possible to walk along the esplanade going West. After a short walk along a road there is a board walk to Camara do Lobos, the fishing village. Buffet food was excellent as well as the breakfasts. The suite we had was very spacious with side sea view west facing. ideal for sundowners!

The hotel room was large with a beautiful view overlooking the sea and spotlessly clean with a modern decor. The food offers a number of restaurants with the main one offering a buffet for breakfast and evening meal. For both there was cooked options with a wide range of dishes the whole time we were there. The pool and surrounding area are very well maintained with beautiful gardens, along with there being the option for drinks and lighter food. The staff are very helpful and courteous and happy to help at all times
