Quintinha Sao Joao

Delicious breakfast. Gardens. Bar with piano. Popular with older guests but we are in our 50s and loved it. Not pushy. Very helpful staff. Full of classy furniture and sitting areas.

Bit of uphill walk back but does you good. !

5 Stars for a hotel I didn’t visit? Yes, because their staff behaved in such a friendly and professional way following a problem with our booking. It turned out that due to an issue with the booking system, our booking over New Year could not be honoured. Rather than just tell us that this had happened, they managed to locate a room at an amazing hotel as a substitute. As if this wasn’t enough, they also arranged for free transfers from the airport and for our return. I think you can always judge the measure of any business by the way they treat their customers to resolve a problem. I would say that Quintinha Sao Joao could not have performed any better. It was absolutely exceptional throughout! Thank you so much for pulling out all the stops for us to ensure we had a great stay in Funchal.

The receptionist couldn’t be more helpful. Booked us for the tasting dinner and wine the food was excellent. As was the everything else including the „how to make a pancha at the bar.

Restaurant should have had more staff as the tasting dinner was very popular. It took too long
