This is a lovely hotel with a comfortable feel. The bedrooms are large and well laid out. Perfect hotel if u want peace and quiet. Excellent friendly service from all staff. It was just too quiet for my husband and I as we like a bit of atmosphere. Not rowdy but just some! Often we were on our own in... More

Leaving behind a host of small domestic crises, transport glitches and some ghastly spring weather in the Uk, we arrived dishevelled and unkempt in Funchal, and were immediately charmed by the wonderful atmosphere of the Quintinha. Despite the fact that my travel companion announced our arrival by the untimely (and inappropriate!) dropping of a large bottle of duty free gin... More

This was the second time we have stayed at this hotel, the first being in 2005, and it was even better this time with the addition of an indoor & outdoor pool together with a spa. It also made it very convenient to be able to fly direct from Leeds with Jet 2 including transfers & baggage. The hotel is... More

This was our first trip to Madeira and we couldn't have been happier with our choice to stay at this hotel. We do not like the large chain hotels and prefer smaller properties. Quintinha Sao Joao was perfect for us and they provide a very personal touch. The staff were very helpful and friendly - and Rosie offered lots of... More

This was my second visit to this beautiful hotel and I wasn't disappointed. The hotel was opened in 1998 (I think) and it has all the mod cons that you would expect from a modern hotel. However, the decor has been enhanced by a wonderful blend of antique furniture, pictures and prints. The various lounge areas are appointed with comfortable... More

This is a hotel with a difference. Unlike so many of the large 5 star concrete blocks that inhabit tourist resorts this is a small hotel where service to the guest really matters. The staff make friends with you and it matters to them that your stay is enjoyable. We were upgraded from a junior suite to a larger one... More
