It was lovely fine days full of comfort from the always helpful stuff, gorgeous garden to walk and relax in, and a marvelous cliff overlooking the marina and sea of Funchal. The balcony/terrace was south oriented - full of flowers in pots, with a sunshade, table and chairs - lovely place to take a glass in the evening.
The only small minus was a bit of possible noise from neighbour's room, but that wasn't a problem, rather just a notice.

My husband and I stayed four nights and had a very positive experience. The staff was unfailingly friendly and helpful and allowed us to check in early. The hotel has a low density in terms of number of rooms and a relaxing atmosphere was prevalent. The breakfast buffet (included in price) was excellent and provided a good variety of good quality choices. The pool, while outdoors, was heated sufficiently to allow a swim even when the temperature was on the chilly side. The room was clean...

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at editory Ocean Way funchal . The rooms were very comfortable, we got a beautiful balcony with Ocean View that was spectacular. The hotel is definitely a five star . Love the bathrobes and the slippers to be able to go to the spa . Luxurious pool towels were provided. And special call out for Andrea, Mikaela and Sophia at the front desk, and Catarina in the restaurant. We prearranged a number of excursions and they helped us with all the arrangements. Great...

We had a fabulous time! The hotel is charming and we had a great room overlooking the ocean. We were upgraded which was a pleasant surprise. The promenade walk is beautiful and for the best fish go to Barqueiro Restaurant off of the promenade. The staff was very helpful! We also walked to downtown Funchal and old section of town- make sure you walk to old part- Street Santa Catarina. Breakfast at hotel was excellent and with great views of the coastline.

We visit this hotel for the second time and both times very satisfied with our stay. The personnel is very friendly and helpful, rooms are very clean and with modern design, facing mostly partially the ocean. Hotel design is modern and practical, food is extraordinary, a lot of amenities are available - as free group classes at the pool,spa center and entertainment after dinner. It is really a feeling to have vacation in the paradise.

It's been my home for years. Wonderful landscape, pools even sea water pool.
Nice staff good pool Manager and staff, very devoted. It's relative quiet. No loud tacky Americans in sights, people dress
Decently even at dinner. You can chose
A mountain view, a Harbour view, or even
A dedicatedly sea view. I prefer the Harbor view since you see both , sea and Harbor.
Fine dining, especially the Red Lion across the street. Decent food well priced.

The Pestana is an excellent hotel facing the ocean. From our room we had an excellent view to the hotel pools and gardens and to the ocean. It was like being in the middle of the sea. Service was excellent and the staff incredibly helpful and nice. We had breakfast included and, leaving at 3:00 a.m., they offered to bring tea or coffee to our room. We accepted and we had a complete continental breakfast brought to our room at 2:00 a.m. at no charge.
The hotel has beautiful outdoors/indoors...
