PortoBay Serra Golf

It was close to the airport

Great value. Property is 15 min drive to Funchal and centrally located of renting a car on Madeira. Beware parking is limited on the property.

A friendly hotel in the hills of Madeira, a 15 minute drive from the airport. Quiet, relaxing, good breakfast, the restaurant serves excellent (simple) dinners, the old block is lovely.

Hotel is verry nice. Great place to forget about every day life. Beautiful area. Quiet. Amazing people work in. I had a morning flight and breakfast was ready especially for us!! Btw. It was amazing breakfast. The only one think i didnt like was paid afternoon tea which should be free but this is just a tip to management.

The hotel itself is in excellent condition with modern facilities. Even the basic room is very comfortable & comes with a small personal garden patio space. Beds are super comfy with sturdy pillows. Good breakfast spread & staff always on hand. Very quiet location- perfect if you are looking for some rest & relaxation or if you plan to golf at the spectacular course down the road. The village centre is a 5 minute walk away - there is not much to see & do there but the restaurant there does a good bbq (espetada). The start of the Portela to Ribeiro Frio levada walk is 4 kms away - easy, flat walk but also incredibly boring if going solo. Beware that taxis are very expensive so if you do not have a car arrange a private transfer in advance. If taking the bus to Funchal, arrive at least 20 mins in advance at the bus stop as it can leave earlier than scheduled time.

My wife and I needed last minute accommodation following a flight cancellation. We booked a night here and were treated so kindly from the moment I called to confirm our room type to checkout. We both wished we had spent more time in this beautiful room during our honeymoon and will look to stay here upon our return to Madeira.
