PolandThis is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Fantastic location, comfortable interiors and irreplaceable service. A romantic, picturesque place with a soul. I recommend it to anyone who values privacy, tasty cuisine, playing tennis and golf and wants to wake up with a smile on their face. See you soon !

PolandAbsolutely lovely. Great building, wonderful gardens and wider grounds. A levada walk to Monte very near. I did there and back in 5 hours and I'm not that fast. Not much else in walking distance . Very relaxing, particularly during pandemic! And reasonably priced at the time I went. I got an upgrade to main house. The restaurant and spa are a little expensive for me but the tea room and club house are fine. I spent most of my time in the gardens. Of course it is a little cooler than in Funchal and damp outside in the morning

United KingdomMy wife and me had an absolute fantastic stay at Casa Velha do Palheiro. The hotel is located on the hills above Funchal within extensive and lovely gardens. Pairing colonial flair with modern elements, the quiet area with its exclusive ambience clearly earns it place in the Relais & Chateaux selection. Special thanks go to Cindy, Sonja, and especially to Luis, for providing us a heartwarming welcome and an extraordinary service.
