Overall Ratings & Reviews Quinta do Estreito Vintage House

A lovely hotel in need of retouching, peeling paint and worn carpets. The views are all great, better to consider a 3* and you will not be disappointed.

Super friendly lady at Reception check in.Helpful clear explanation of facilities. The hotel spotless A bit of wear tear on room drapes and bed base but Spacious room and bathroom good shower and superb balcony views.Small dining room meant 7.30 breakfast was crowded but by 8am empty.Buffet was adequate great scram egg and typical portuguese cakes fruit etc. Pool terrace was perfect ,views overlooking hills and sea (small sauna cabin looked great did not try) The pool bar restricted hours.Oddly hotel lacks any kind of lounge or bar area to sit in apart from the terrace. I enjoyed hotel but disliked the area.Unless you have car or take taxi there is nowhere to walk outside the hotel The roads are absurdly steep narrow and pavements limited. You can walk to supermarket thats all unless you like mountain hiking.The most awkward thing about hotel is the location. My first time in Madeira so it came as surprise to me but if you know the island maybe you are familiar with this. Fortunately the local Bolt app taxi can save you money. Yellow cab to funchal was 30 euro while the bolt averaged 6 -11 euro a trip

Great stay

Great location, great views. Needs a little bit of repairs in some areas but nothing extreme. Staff was very nice, helpful and always in a good mood. Parking onsite is a plus. Breakfast was repetitive everyday but enough choice to keep you happy. Great place overall.

It was a little to find on the day of our arrival, but after that it was a perfect location. It was quiet but had easy access to the highway to get to all destination. The staff was very nice and helpful. The rooms were clean, a little old and in need of some repair. The yard is beautiful with trees and flowers, well maintained. Convenient parking available, not necessary to park on the street on steep hills.

Beautiful hotel and gardens with lots of old world charm! Wonderful breakfast and service with a variety of food to choose from. Service was excellent! Ana at front desk was very pleasant and took care of our needs. Norberto was wonderful at the outdoor bar.

Unfortunately the air condition system wasn’t working in our room while we stayed, and the room was terribly hot all the time! So, we hardly sleept at all. Since we paid for an air conditioned room we didn’t get what we wanted. Maybe the manager should think some refund.

Quiet hotel with very nice sea views. The receptionist was very attentive in explaining everything related to our stay.

LOVED STAY AT THIS HOTEL FOR 15DAYS, GREAT STAFF, WAS AMAZING ALL ROUND, FOOD WAS GREAT, AREA IS BEAUTIFUL AND QUIET. BEST TRIP EVER

Amazing location, staff friendly, the property itself just needs a little bit of attention with the plaster. However overall a good place to stay

Nice hotel with beautiful views of the village and ocean. Rooms are a decent size with balconies. Breakfast had a good selection of hot and cold options. Staff were helpful and friendly and the most important feature was a flat parking lot on property, if you’ve ever been to Madeira you can appreciate this feature.

Property is in a good location, with free parking. However does not qualify as 4 or 5 star hotel, no fridge in room or coffee/tea making facilities. The bed was hard and uncomfortable, with pillows as flat as pancakes. Hotel needs modernising with leaks, paint on walls bubbling, dated warn carpets, warn hard flooring in need of varnishing, balcony had concrete chunks missing with metal bars exposed. Breakfast was the same every morning with eggs, and cheap streaky bacon and hotdogs with selection of cereal, bread and fruit. Should add more with pastries, beans etc... easy fixes for the hotel to reach its potential as it could be really nice and the staff were lovely.

We enjoyed a very relaxing vacation at the hotel. The staff is very helpful and the views are amazing. The indoor parking is very convenient (BTW the car is a must, the area is not pedestrian-friendly, and there is a lot of places to see on the island where a car is the best way to get to)

Liked the pool, dinning room good , parking good reception good, didn't like no tea tray in room , no fridge in room, aircon in room poor, balcony furniture needs replacing, sun lounging beds round pool very uncomfortable over worn and need replacement, the pool bar was closed, breakfast was lacking choices, no toaster, one day ran out of English breakfast tea bags. The hotel is a bit run down and needs tideying up and painting, the grounds are large and interesting, all the staff were fantastic couldn't falt them. The Quinta was like stepping back in time, We did enjoy our stay very much.

Great views, nice garden, and good breakfasts. Bit away from central Funchal, but that was probably a good thing.

Lovely hotel in a quiet village with easy access to Câmara de Lobos and Funchal - nice to have a hotel with more of a local feel and some personality. Hotel staff friendly and helpful. Would have been nice to have a bar open for an after dinner drink.

Maria Magdalena The Best Server. Restaurant ; Excellent food.

Really enjoyed our first visit to Madeira and would love to come back when the flower festival is on.

Enjoyed five days in this hotel on bed & breakfast basis. It is more suited for adults only. The hotel could be a set piece from the "Hercule Poirot TV series" based on its main lay out. The modern affinity pool and bar service area is however excellent as is the buffet breakfast provided. WiFi worked well in reception area but would recommend it should be available in hotel rooms.The ambience of the hotel to a small degree is spoiled by the new modern road system in front of the hotel and a supermarket that is fairly adjacent. The package we had included transport to and from the airport that worked well apart from on arrival other booked parties failed to materialise that delayed us for about an hour. We would thoroughly recommend the Jeep Safari 5 tour and would have done another if we were staying longer. Avoid Funchal if there is more than one cruise liner in port. There were three when we visited, and the Blue Line Monte Tours were hopeless as there was no space to hop on and off as promoted resulting in a 26 Euro round trip without stopping off at any of the attractions en route! A good choice of restaurants to suit all tastes in street adjacent to the cable car station.

This hotel is definitely not 5 star as advertised and also etched on the entrance door. It is in a desperate need of updating from the room down to the sunbeds. What a shame as the hotel is in a nice area up in the hills with fantastic views over Camara do Losbos and the sea behind. We took the hotel shuttle into Funchal one day to be dropped off somewhere behind the old town with quite a long walk and a longer walk back up hill to catch it for our return. It was a long drive back dropping people on roué at another hotel. We discovered the local bus the next day! The hotel has 2 restaurants. Baccus restaurant was excellent with very good service. This was where we had our breakfast which was good with good choices.
