We have been using this hotel for many years, and decided to buy into the apartments. We love the facilities. There is a jetty into the sea, which we use for swimming and snorkelling. We see many beautiful fish. The on-site diving school offer tuition, dives and sea trips. Facilities include an indoor pool, an out door pool ( sea-level) and a large upstairs pool, giving fantastic views across the bay. There is also a large, glazed, indoor jacuzzi. The staff and service here are efficient, thoughtful and caring. There is an office which will book cars and trips. I was hospitalised during my recent trip and the staff were extremely supportive to my husband. They printed paperwork, made phone calls, and showed kindness and compassion, as true friends do. I recommend wholeheartedly that you visit flower bedecked Madeira, but also this wonderful hotel.…

This was our first time in Madeira which is beautiful and we will certainly return however not to the Carlton Madeira which is a nice hotel but a 4 star at best. the location is great the views over the pool and ocean from our balcony were amazing however it ends there. The restaurants are all buffet -and very busy, we only did breakfast in the end which was the same daily and not covid friendly - everyone using tea and coffee machines, why a team member could not pour this is questionable. No water in the rooms, no porter service, had to ask for tea facilities in the room, the towels are old and rough, the reception team are not friendly at all, however i must say all the other teams were very friendly and helpful. The pub and taverna were closed the whole time we were there - the taverna for a private function. The décor is now dated with 1970's carpets in the restaurants The Atlantic pool area requires cleaning the tiles are filthy and the bar area was not open despite the hotel being fully booked. also unless you have a pool view we did thankfully you will view the main road and car park So sorry no return to the hotel for us, but definitely return to Madeira…

This hotel must of been 5 star 20 years ago, rooms Still have carpets and are very basic, breakfast is shocking! But the coffee is good. The balcony’s are not child friendly at all my young daughter cant even come on here due to the 6” gap between the floor and glass balustrade, I’m surprised no child has been seriously hurt. Hotel it’s self is situated in a good area, and the top pool area and bar is great. Only problem is the pools aren’t heated and it’s not exactly been hot this week so my young daughter hasn’t even been able to play in the pools, we were told the indoor pool was heated so we went to check that out and was told it’s heated to 24 degrees which is still way to cold for an indoor pool.

We had a junior suite facing the pool and sea, very spacious, well equipped with fridge, TV and huge balcony. The bathroom had double sinks, a huge free standing bath and separate shower with fixed and moveable heads all nicely done. The pool areas are very attractive with our chosen area being the pool and area near the sea which seemed a lift ride away too far for many! Breakfast was nice if a little busy at times, but staff were doing well to replenish food and clear tables quickly. The main area are a little tired in places but given that most of our time was either by the pool or in the room this wasn’t off putting. The photos on the website really do not do the hotel justice and we would definitely stay here again.

Presently here and although covid safety measures in hotel are good the dining room is a disaster area children allowed to go upto food stations alone touching food and although tongs given this is unsafe practice.I personally feel no child under 12 should be allowed up to stations and should not be allowed to run around not following the dining area rules whilst parents sit and allow this come on pestana sort this out
