Pestana Miramar Garden & Ocean Resort

Nice hotel, nice pools, clean and tidy, staff generally very helpful and polite, breakfast good, coffee possibly the worst I have ever tasted. Good for couples, kids -everyone. Air-con did not work for the first week of our stay and had no back up fans (I had to supply my room number before they said no to the fan, I assume this was because I was not in a superior room!). They reserved 500euros on my card and although they said it had been cancelled on a few occasions, it was not (leaving me with limited funds) so they get a low mark because of this. They charge you 5euros a day for parking which I think is a bit cheeky. Entertainment was similar to what you find at hotels in Bournemouth!

If you can fault this hotel there is something wrong with you!!

Had a great holiday in this hotel. The 3 restaurants served good food. Bars and snack bars very good. If you want a quiet holiday this would suit you fine.

Le jour de mon anniversaire, champagne au petit déjeuner, et bouteille offerte dans la chambre, cocktails offerts au bar de l'hôtel! Une attention surprise qui est un excellent souvenir. Les piscines et le jacuzzi très agréables.

Все хорошо. Чувствуется стиль. Оформление помещений отеля великолепно. Однако... отсутствие Интернета в номере вызывает неудобство. ТВ - с кинескопом... Бытовые электрические приборы очень старые. Это все печально.

We had not realised this resort was 2 hotels combined, so checked in where we had booked, the Miramar, to be taken along long corridors and up 2 lifts, to our room which ended up in the Village resort. We then had several very uncertain hours as we were given no information about things like the room safe, wi fi and hotel amenities, and getting around the resort was confusing. Once settled, we were very comfortable, our room ( studio superior), a good size, though unfortunately our balcony faced north so we never sat out as we got no sun, it had a wonderful view over the city and mountain, but the grey cloud glowering over the mountain nearly the whole time, did not encourage cheerfulness!

Personal (besonders am Empfang) sehr unfreundlich. Dunkles Zimmer im UG.Zimmerwunsch obere Etage wurde nicht berücksichtigt. Garagenmiete für Mietauto wurde in Angebot nicht erwähnt.

Viel Sonnenschein, aber im Zimmer immer dunkel, weil Nordseite und hoher Bewuchs vor der Terrasse. So mussten wir ständig Licht anmachen. Um Sonne zu erwischen mussten wir immer in den Innenhof am Pool, wo es oft sehr laut von anderen Gästen war.

Prima hotel vriendelijk personeel en prachtige locatie nabij het centrum van Funchal. Een auto gehuurd en het hele eiland bekeken. Diverse wandelroutes gelopen en genoten van de prachtige natuur. Vriendelijke bewoners en wat opviel was een erg schoon eiland.

Interesting,. but never to be repeated!
