We booked the stay because of really good reviews of the hotel and its 4 star rating and what was supposed to be a great breakfast. 1st room we were accommodated in had ants, we got moved to another room where the “AC” was very loud and barely working. The breakfast was very basic and we pretty much ate just the fruit. Overall the hotel is definitely dated and I wouldn’t rate it as 4*. I have to admit that they have a nice ocean view though. We originally booked 2 nights and after the 1st we decided to cancel the 2nd.

I love the location which is closed to other tourist attractions like the Cave and the Chapel in Sao Vicente. The lava pool in Porto Moniz and the levada walk. I really love the ocean view of this property especially for other people who love nature, this place is for them. Overall this place is so beautiful.

Monte Mar Hotel Madeira

An excellent 4 star hotel with good facilities, very clean, lovely pool, very good scenery. Only problem that we found was that it catered too much for the package people with 'entertainment' on every night and heards of people wanting to sit down at the same time for food. Well away from Funchal, the local town does not have any restaurants so we had to go to Sao Vincent which has a good choice of eating places...but you do need a car. Would go back again.
