Pestana Miramar

TripAdvisor Review
Portugal, Europe
Funchal

Elegant, grand and charming, the Pestana Miramar is a wonderful example of twenties style and modern amenities coming together in perfect harmony. This is certainly one of Portugal's grandest hotels. Savour that first trip up the grand stairway to the front door, and your gateway to a wonderfully luxurious and relaxing holiday in the heart of Madeira.

Experience the unique charm of the elegant Pestana Miramar, Madeira

One of the many wonderful things about the Pestana Miramar is that it combines its elegance with a real sense of charm. The views are wide and expansive; the décor is wonderfully rich throughout… And yet, dining can be a very cosy and relaxed experience here. And while the guests' rooms maintain that sense of elegance, it's never at the expense of real comfort.

A big advantage of staying at the Pestana Miramar is your close proximity to Funchal itself. It's a beautiful, vibrant city looking out over the perfect blue waters of the Mediterranean. You can explore to your heart's content without ever straying too far from your wonderful holiday home.

Another advantage: when you stay at the Pestana Miramar, you can make full use of all the facilities of the hotel's sister property, the Pestana Village. Between the two resorts you get a wealth of restaurants and bars to choose from, as well as a choice of swimming pools. There is also an excellent Health Club, and a well-stocked games room.

Perhaps one of the biggest 'perks' of staying at the Pestana Miramar is your room itself. Each of the hotel's ensuite superior studios affords an exceptional view. Sit out on your private balcony, cool drink in hand, and gaze out over the gardens or out towards the mountain and relish the sort of views and the relaxing ambience that holidays to Madeira are all about.

For your added convenience, studios are equipped with kitchenette, cable TV, radio, phone and safety deposit box. So you'll have everything you need for a stay-at-home evening, and a wonderful opportunity to revel in the stillness and the beauty of it all.

Holidays to Madeira give you a uniquely relaxing holiday. And if it's relaxation you crave, then Pestana Miramar is going to be your dream destination.

TripAdvisor Review
Great food and helpful and friendly staff.

This is my second visit to the Pestana Miramar hotel. A big improvement has been the option of, a la carte restaurants along with the usual buffet restaurant. The food and especially the service at these a la carte restaurants is excellent. The restaurant manager Claudia is the most charming and likeable person you could have to serve you. She was the making of our holiday along with her Nepalese colleague and wine waiter. Have to also mention the friendly room cleaner Delta, who is so quick and efficient. Needed a relaxing time after Covid and these people helped us to accomplish this. There is no gift shop within the hotel which is a pity. Overall, an excellent hotel with a lovely atmosphere and extremely helpful stall.

Great stay. Fantastic service

A beautiful, elegant, traditional-style hotel in a great location in Funchal. Fantastic, well-kept garden. Very clean. The hotel service was very nice and professional - both at the reception and in the restaurants. Large, ergonomically furnished rooms. Food very good compared to other hotels.

Great place

Great hotel with an unusual layout, elevators etc never sure what floor you were on, kids loved it and called it a Harry Potter hotel. Staff was great and always friendly. Beautiful garden and close to everything needed. Strongly recommend the place! 👍

Would definitely return

We are sadly leaving the hotel tomorrow morning but wished we had booked longer. The Hotel is traditional and in keeping with Madeira. The tropical gardens around the hotel grounds are outstanding (better than the paying tropical gardens on the Monte. The staff are the friendliest I have ever encountered, nothing is too much trouble and that includes all staff regardless of their profession. We preferred both the A la Carte restaurants in the Miramer for evening meals, lovely food and unusual menus. You have the option to eat at the Pestana Grande Hotel which we did only once, unfortunately I was not impressed with my meal in the Italian restaurant . The breakfast buffet in the Village/Miramer was good too with lots of choice. We would definitely come back here.

Excellent food and service

We ate at the a la carte restaurants at this hotel but we stayed at The Grande. The meals were excellent and the service was brilliant especially Claudia who works in both a la Carte restaurants. Claudia was very busy but still took the time to explain the menu and talk to us, very professional and friendly. The gardens were beautiful and lite up for Christmas 🎄 we would eat here again without a doubt
