Hotel Cais da Oliveira

This hotel is one of the three hotels. The reception is located at Hotel Rocamar, which is quite far. The room is spacious with a kitchenette, but the decor is a little simple and old-fashioned . The balcony is huge with a sea view. There is a hotel private parking area that costs 7.50 euros per night. Otherwise there are free parking on the street which is hard to find and paid parking which is free at night. The gym, swimming pool, sauna, and steam room are free of charge m, but they close at 6 pm, which is quite inconvenient. There are also many restaurants inside, which you choose to include with the room. I overheard that they did program for Christmas and New Year. It is perfect for those who just want to stay in the resort and not to go around the island.

We had an amazing room it was like the penthouse suite Lovely sea views cleaned every day lovely pool

We very much enjoyed our stay here. It’s part of a resort of three hotels that share the same facilities. We had two rooms both with a lovely sea view and balcony. The small kitchenette was basic and a tiny bit limited but ok for basic cooking. Only one room had a coffee machine. We only ate once in the main self-service restaurant which was enjoyable but slightly overpriced. We loved happy hour at the bar and also enjoyed the evening entertainment. All the staff were very helpful though the waiting time at reception could be long as there was generally only one person on the desk. We hired a car were able to park for free on the street outside the hotel and the hotel has a car park (€7.50/day). There are a few shops within walking distance. There are quite a few steps around the hotels though I think most areas are accessible by ramp or lift, but possibly not the pools. Thanks for a wonderful holiday.

These apartments are more like 2 star accommodation, don’t be fooled be their pics. The rooms are dirty, dated, damp and damaged. The kitchenette is ancient and the bathroom was dirty and had seen better days. The pillows were rancid and the rooms door looked like it had been broken into at some point. To top this off there was drilling in the room above.

Lovely location, very helpful staff, massive room for two people, which was a pleasant surprise as my daughter and I could spread out, she took the bedroom with two single beds and I took the sofa bed as I'm an early riser, we had two bathrooms. lovely kitchenette with all that we needed. The breakfast was fantastic and lots of choices of hot and cold food. We had dinner in the al cart restaurant which was very tasty. The hotel staff left a bottle of bubbles for my daughter's birthday, which was a very nice touch. They have a Gym, spa, indoor and outdoor pool, and lovely places to sunbathe on the side of the cliffs, with great sunrise views. Few shops and restaurants are within walking distance. Took the shuttle bus from the hotel to Funchal for a day trip.

Lovely hotel, very clean, staff friendly and efficient, lots of little areas to use as shared among 3 hotels, not an issue for us, but may be for some, Madeira hilly so lots of steps, ( lifts available). Local restaurants served lovely food and reasonable prices, local bus to Funchal on time, good to use as a base
