Set in São Martinho, within a 10-minute drive from Funchal, Vila Marta offers accommodation with a private terrace and views of the Atlantic Ocean and banana plantations. Fresh bread is delivered to guests’ studios every morning.

There are not enough words to express the very high level of professionalism of this structure. Be prepared to be treated as friends, not as guests requesting service. Great lodging at a great value for money, constant and perfect cleanliness, front desk open almost all day and in any case hosts always available by phone. They will know how to accommodate your every request, from check in to check out, to itineraries, to places to eat, to possible car rental, to support for any minor inconvenience. A great place to feel special and cared for throughout your stay. I hope to come back soon.

If I could, I would put 20 stars! Everything was perfect: stunning view, comfortable apartment with everything you need, helpful and friendly staff, clean and well-kept territory, room cleaning, nice swimming pool. A lady from reception helped with car renting, it was very convenient to get it directly to the hotel and return there. Private parking had places all the time. It was really comfortable to stay here, seemed like you are a welcome guest but nobody bother you. Absolutely can recommend and hopefully will come back one day!

    If you are looking for a big, good location with a view and a parking space at a good price - this is the one. You are 13 min away from the busy city center but the walk is easy and the neighborhood is nice.

    The hotel's location is great, close to Funchal's city centre, with so many amenities ans shops near by. This is a 2** hotel, if you are travelling on a budget and only use the hotel to sleep, then this is a good option. Parking space is offered. It is a bit tricky, but the staff handles it very well.

    Great location (near the see, down town and shops/supermarket). Staff is very friendly (let us warm up baby food at night in the kitchen and got us have breakfast earlier in the check-out day). Hotel is not a modern, fancy 3 stars, but serves the purpose. They provided a crib for our baby, which was very helpful. Overall I liked and recommend.

    Pool, location, view and size of the room were great and just like in the pictures. BUT everything else is not even 3 stars (see comments regarding what we didn't like) that's probably why you can get the low prices compared to other 5 star hotels.

    The location is excellent. Next to a shopping mall, which has a big supermarket and also has a food court inside the supermarket, where the local people dine in or take away. The hotel is right in the city center, accessible to everywhere on foot. Breakfast is free and included in the room rate, nothing fancy but good price value for the room rate. There is a pool and sunbathing area on the roof. The room is nice, furniture is characteristic.
