This was my 4rth trip to Madeira and to Ponta do Sol, where I stayed at this great hotel (because the main hotel, Estalagem da Ponta do Sol, was fully booked). It is really nice, great design, big rooms all facing the ocean. Very good bedsheets, safe, flat screen TV, free wifi in the rooms. Breakfast is very good, food... More

We visit as restaurant. We ask to see the rooms and the staff was very helpfull. We will be back for a weekend, The location, is superb and design is really very good. And the staff is very happy and friendly.

We were delighted by the personnel, wonderful people, and although we had problems with the touroperators from the continent, they helped us a lot! We wanted a quiet, nice, romantic place for our honeymoon, and that's what we got! The food of the restaurant was splendid, the bathroom very comfy, the balconies(all with sea view) so retro-romantic! It's best for... More

The location is very nice, and so was the room. Unfortunately, the staff were extremely unfriendly and unhelpful. The same staff work the restaurant and reception, and they were unwilling servers and often unavailable and unhelpful at the front desk. We were very reluctant to ask for any information. I would not stay here again. On the second night there,... More

I stayed in this hotel in July and I can only say: "Perfect". Rooms are very stylish and clean, food is delicious and personnel is friendly. I would recommend it for your summer vacations - maybe is not appropriate for families with small kids, because in the evening music from beach bars can be loud.

We stayed in DaVila for a week in August. Unfortunately we weren't able to stay the whole two weeks of our vacation since it was already booked (we tried to reserve 3-4 weeks in advance). So i guess it's not the hidden gem any longer and if you want to stay there make sure to reserve well in advance. As... More

Really liked it here. Room was fab - big, kind of funky, clean lines, etc. just the way I like it. Really clean, which is a big bonus in my world. Bed v comfortable. Lovey sheets & towels. Can't fault the accommodation at all. The restaurant was fine. Food was ok. I've tasted better, but also a lot worse. I'd... More

Stopped for a drink and one course dinner. Tables on the pavement next to the beach sufered from the on-beach icecream bar's amplified music and announcer - it sounded like an club 18-30's evening. Food was tastie but 'stylishly small' portions, service was help and friendly and the kitchen adapted a dish to meet a request for 'plain chicken and... More

This was our 2nd stop in Madeira, we got here , parked the convertible and never left. It was sunny every day, the hotel was an EXCELLENT value , right on the ocean with a little inlet for safe swimming in front of it and you get to use (fully use) all the excellent amenities of the sister property, the...
