“Nestled in a tranquil area, I found it's a short drive from both the airport and Funchal, offering a balance of accessibility and retreat. The direct ocean access and on-site diving center are ideal for active guests, while the spa provides a welcome contrast. From my perspective, its community-focused environment, where staff go the extra mile, makes it more than just a stay.”
