"Excellent choice for breakfast. The setting and location is wonderful - sitting round the pool, looking towards the sea. Right next to the cute small town with some lovely restaurants. Hotel of a good standard with equally nice comfy rooms. Would have given a 5 out of 5 apart from on occasion, not enough staff on at the bar pool area in the day sometimes and some of the sunbeds are past their best. Would definitely stay here again."

Top Gaula Hotel Reviews

Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira

10/10 Excellent

"Reid’s Palace was easily one of the best hotel experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, the level of service and attention to detail was incredible. They personally showed us around the hotel and our room, and from there, the service never stopped. Our room was serviced several times throughout the day, and every evening we came back to thoughtful little gifts and special touches waiting for us. It felt like they were constantly anticipating what we might need before we even had to ask. The property itself is absolutely beautiful, but what really sets Reid’s Palace apart is the service. Everything feels intentional, personal, and incredibly polished. You truly feel taken care of from the moment you arrive until you leave. We have stayed at several beautiful places in Europe, but Reid’s Palace was in a category of its own. It’s more than just a luxury hotel—it’s an experience. Absolutely top tier and worth every penny. We would stay here again without hesitation"

Pestana Casino Park Ocean and SPA Hotel

8/10 Good

"Outdoor pools/amenities close too early. Nothing going on at night anywhere in the premises. Our room wasn’t very clean and tub/shower was small/tight."

Hyatt Ziva Madeira

8/10 Good

"Hotel was good enough, late booking due to flight delays and the staff bent over backwards to sort a room for us. Only negative was cleaning materials left out all the time in entrances to accommodation blocks, seems odd for a resort of this kind"

The Vine

10/10 Excellent

"An excellent hotel in a fantasric location. Staff really friendly, helpful and professional. Room excellent, particularly the view. Food fantastic. We had a brilliant stay and will be back."

Arts In Hotel Conde Carvalhal

"Love the place, it’s tuck away in a quiet road yet due to that it’s a 10-15 minutes to walk to restaurants and all transportation…"

NEXT - Savoy Signature
