    Great location and my teens loved visiting the Lido with pontoon - only €2 for 17 years and under. Our family suite perfect - massive with 2 bathrooms and A/C. Food was good, but all buffets - got to eat at the a la carte at Royal Pestana. Great...

    Absolutely perfect location. Next to the beach and half an hour to Madeira best places. No problem with parking. Very helpful reception staff and all other as well. We were aware it's not a new hotel, but the price was good enough for this...
