Vila Ventura

Alle sehr freundlich, deutschsprachig, hilfsbereit. Frühstück normal mit frischem Filterkaffee und allem was dazu gehört. Im angeschlossenen Restaurant mit kann man sich gut aufhalten und essen.

I enjoyed a beautiful week of active vacation in Madeira. Vila Ventura was the ideal launch pad. I felt welcome immediately. My room was spacious and very clean, the balcony was large. The kitchenette allowed me to cook a little something and to keep my lunch in the fridge. The personnel were always friendly and very helpful. My room had good WLAN. The only thing I was missing was a hairdryer.

This apartment-hotel offers nice Roms with a little kitchenplace, bathroom and balcony. The view is wonderful. Blue sea behind some orange rooftops. And directly in front of our roomdoor the best restaurant in town, with faboulous barbecued fish dishes .

We stayed at the Vila Ventura for 2 weeks. Nothing was too much trouble for the very friendly and helpful receptionists Sandra and Paula . A decent size room and bathroom were kept spotlessly clean. Breakfast good. The restaurant provides top quality food and drink at a good price. Good,quiet location.A car is recommended if you want to travel around the island independently. This hotel is certainly the best value establishment we can recall visiting, including the 5 star places frequented regularly on business before retirement. You will not be disappointed.

We spent a week in February in a room on the second floor. Peek-a-boo views of the ocean from a large balcony over frontline Rocamar and Cais da Oliveria hotels. Updated kitchenette and bath. Beds were fine, not too firm, but pillows were lumpy. Helpful, friendly and kind staff. Very hilly area, it's a hike to the oceanfront walkway. Promenade not as well kept or as pretty as in Sao Marthino area. Very rocky shoreline with few swimmers in a rough sea. Enjoyed the cat community! Not much going on in Feb. Most guests leave the hotel during the day in cars, busses or tours. TV was mostly German as were the guests. Hotel restaurant is very good and fairly priced. Not many restaurants or shops in the area. A couple of small mini-markets with limited choices within walking distance.

Ive got to be fair and rate this hotel as a three star, which is all it claims to be, which is what we wanted for our little few days break, and as such it scores quite well. It's the sort of place that doesn't present you with all you could wish straight off, but the lovely helpful staff will find things if you Judy ask - kettle, hair dryer etc. It has a very nice little restaurant/bar, we can recommend the espetadas; breakfast was a little basic but adequate, which is all it ever tries to be. Room was basic but clean, and a nice big balcony. If this is all you want you won't be disappointed, and it's good value. We saw no evidence of fans or heaters but we didn't ask. All in all a good value 4 out of 5, and again, really lovely staff.

We had a lovely big room which was very clean. There was no toaster but one was quickly produced when asked for. No air conditioning and very warm at night but the receptionist was happy to find us a fan. We had a balcony but not much of a view. This area was mainly hotels and holiday lets but it was a short bus ride into Funchal which was lovely and you could pick up a bus to many places including the mountains! The restaurant was excellent and we ate there most nights, enjoying fresh fish and huge skewers!

This is our fourth holiday on the beautiful island of Madeira, and the fourth time we've stayed at Vila Ventura. We love the fact that it is a "small and friendly" hotel, with recently refurbished rooms which are spacious and kept spotlessly clean. We ate at the restaurant most nights, and the food was delicious, as always. The staff at Vila Ventura are professional and friendly, and are happy to help with any queries. I would agree with the reviewer who said that the pillows need replacing, but other than that, we have absolutely no complaints, and hope to return to this lovely hotel at some point in the not-too-distant future.

We always prefer small and friendly hotels with a more homely feel and that's certainly what we found at the Vila Ventura. Although we were possibly the only British guests at the time all the staff spoke very good English and went out of their way to have a chat and a joke or to recommend places of interest to visit. The rooms are immaculate with a small kitchen area although I must confess I didn't use it as there are plenty of good restaurants near by to sample not to mention the excellent on sight 'Garden Restaurant'. We so enjoyed the plentiful continental breakfast provided each morning. Well our bags are now packed and unfortunately we'll soon be heading back to rainy Manchester but I have no doubts that we'll be back. Many thanks to everyone for making this the relaxing holiday we were in need of.

Nous avons passé un superbe séjour dans cet établissement. Le personnel de l'accueil était soucieux de notre satisfaction et prodiguait des conseils touristiques forts utiles. Le restaurant était plein tous les soirs. La vue sur la mer depuis le balcon invitait à des moments agréables et décontractants en début ou fin de journée Seul point d'amélioration: Une petite poubelle dans la salle de bain serait fort utile
