Everything was comfortable in the room. The breakfast is really delicious.

The jacuzzi was often too hot or too cold to use, off the four nights we were here, we were only able to use it once properly. The instructions around parking could be clearer as you’d need to drive through a very narrow alley to get to the hotel/parking lot. It turned out to be ok but it would be helpful to have instructions in advance. Also the check-in instructions could’ve been clearer. We were told that reception is open between 9am-9pm before coming but turns out that’s only for weekdays. On weekends it’s 1-9pm.

We had a lovely stay at Quinta da Saraiva. The hotel's location is great, overlooking Camara de Lobos and the surrounding hills, with great views all around. Camara de Lobos itself is within walking distance, about 20 minutes downhill (we took a taxi back up...!). Our room was a little smaller than expected, but it had a nice balcony/terrace. The pool / garden area was lovely! The highlight has to be the incredible breakfast spread that is offered - everything was fresh, homemade, and absolutely delicious! The staff were very friendly and helpful too.

It is a little tricky to access the hotel by car, as the driveway is hidden and you have to drive on a VERY narrow alley. Perhaps this could've been explained prior to arrival. Unfortunately, the jacuzzi also stopped working on our second night, although the staff tried to help.

Superb breakfast, wonderfully helpful staff. Excellent contact from Diogo prior to our stay to ensure everything was in order prior to our arrival. Airport transfer and hire car efficiently arranged and not excessively priced. Parking available (recommend small car) including electric charging point. Room immaculately presented with good quality toiletries in the bathroom. Good air conditioning. We were on the top floor with large balcony overlooking Camara do Lobos. There are a variety of rooms, some have a mezzanine balcony, some were ground floor with an outside seating area. Gardens and swimming pool well kept - saw pool being cleaned during our stay and staff working hard to maintain high standards. Worth a wander under the vines and bananas, around the garden to see the goats and chickens and views. Honesty bar and social area in which to spend time. Is walking distance to Camara do Lobos, about 25 minutes down steep hill, recommend bus or taxi back - staff have all information on public transport. Bus stop is a little up the hill past the property so need to walk back down, less than ten minutes, but steep. We walked up to O Lagar restaurant above the property, took about 15 minutes on road, no pavements - had a lovely meal of traditional espetada.

Not in the control of the property but there are very few shops and restaurants nearby so you need to be organised regards needing to bring anything back, like drinking water, which is recommended by the property. No fridge in the room but you can borrow glasses, plates and cutlery in the social area if you bring food back. Others have already mentioned it but if you hire a car, which is a very good idea here, be prepared for the narrow, steep drive. Get something small but with enough power to get up hills!

Very clean and quite spacious room, with comfortable bed and nice balcony with a view. Air conditioning was quiet and working well. The staff is really friendly and helpfull, they even rented a car for us. Breakfast was delicious. The pool is great, and there is plenty of space around it to lay and relax. And you can eat the bananas and grapes from the garden! It is quite far from the town, around 15-20 minutes walk down the hill, we never tried to walk back to hotel, as its all the way up, but you can easily get a taxi for 5-7euro.

Incredible View of the surrounding city and ocean, breakfast each morning at 8:30 was BEYOND incredible. staff were extremely friendly and helpful, each morning and evening had such a luxurious feel to it, with the glowing pool in the evening to the sun peaking over the mountains in the morning just an incredible all round place to stay!

honestly this place would have been a solid 10/10 for me if it weren’t for the 60€ charge for laundry. that’s about 80$ Canadian, you know what you can buy with 80$ Canadian, another hotel, a car rental for the day, a nice dinner for you and your partner. but to wash one load of laundry…. that’s wild. It is what it is though. loved the stay

The estate is beautiful and sitting by the pool really offers a sense of calm and relaxation. It's well located with good access to restaurants and bars, although we recommend having a car to move around. The staff is amazing and always eager to help. Special thanks to Diogo, who made sure we had the best time possible. Highly recommended and we will definitely return!

Access to the parking is a bit narrow but not as bad as other reviews make it out to be.

They property itself was on the hill, which had a spectacular view. We had a pool and a jacuzzi. The hotel has its own banana trees so they served us with their bananas. Breakfast was amazing lots of varieties you can choose. I was really impressed by the room which we had a sea view. We could see the rest of the city and the ocean. We had our honeymoon here in Madeira. They kindly prepared us a bottle of wine and some chocolates with a sweet greeting card so thanks for organizing it. The actual hotel has its own style, very unique and vintage.

Only things we did not like is the narrow road down to the hotel, from the Main Street around 200 m, which you need to be careful with your car And the rooms are a bit smaller but we liked the rooms which had a big bathroom.

One of the best places I’ve ever stayed at! Staff were absolutely amazing - super friendly and extremely helpful with any inquiries. The room we stayed in as well as the whole building and surroundings are of very high quality and well looked after. The pool and spa area is just as beautiful (maybe even a little more) as you can see in the pictures and perfect for relaxing after a long morning hike. Don‘t be scared to drive down the little street to reach this absolute gem - it’s gonna be ok! :) We’d definitely come back.

As everything else the breakfast is of high quality and very delicious, however we would have liked a little change every other day or so.

We enjoyed our stay at Quinta da Saraiva and found it of a great value for money. We hired a car for the period of our stay in Madeira and the carpark was availible at the hotel. The entrance lane is a bit narrower but with a bit of practise managable (but still adventurous) even with a medium sized car (we had Renault Megane). The breakfasts are very nice and staff was very helpful and answered to our needs or questions. However temptating the whirlpool and the pool in front of the hotel looked like, we did not try them out (the weather was not that warm during our stay unfortunately). The breakfasts are served on the terrace in front of the hotel where in the morning it could be a bit shady and cold (to be noted - we stayed at the end of april!) but the view is magnificent, and it was also possible to have a table with breakfast served behind the corner where morning sunshine reached and then it was perfect. When we imagined hot summer days that same shade for the breakfast could be actually very pleasant. The breakfast was great and very complete, with selection of fresh breads served on a platter every day accompanied by fresh fruits, cheeses, little sweets like pasteis de nata and more.. , yogurt with müsli and/or eggs made in different ways were swiftly brought on request (and such options were clearly offered). The breakfast was not opulent - and yet very elegant and absolutely satisfying and we preferred it this way.

This boutique hotel is perched above the harbor of Câmara de Lobos. The hotel and grounds have quite a history. Our breakfast every morning was made to order and served outside with the breathtaking view overwhelming the senses. The pool was refreshing and a ho tub finished off each night. The beds were comfortable and our room was spacious with a kitchen. The road/alley to the hotel is quiet small so if renting a car…make it a compact. There is plenty of parking for the guests just below the entrance.

Being up on the hill made for a challenging walk.
