Hotel Pantai di Funchal

We really enjoyed our stay at Baia Azul. This hotel has everything! Gorgeous views from the lounge area, a lovely bar with entertainment at night, excellent service, lovely comfortable rooms, and a very nice pool area. We cannot fault it! The breakfast was also lovely. Would definitely stay here again!

The staff is friendly, the room is a good size and everything was clean. The room has a mini fridge, slippers and robes. They also provide pool towels. There is a cleaning service everyday and they change all the towels, including the ones for the pool. The bed was not the best as it was quite hard and had a spring mattress. We enjoyed the indoor pool, the jacuzzi and sauna. We haven't tried the outdoor pool as we only spent time there in the evenings. The breakfast was good. I'd come back as it was a nice experience overall.

Wonderful experience and the best hotel during our stay in Madeira. Perfect price and value proposition with a staff who are really customers oriented and friendly. Smaller hotel what is never overcrowded. Nice charming design elements. Very good breakfast with selection of local cheeses and meat. Real juice would be the only needed improvement and some pastel de Nata for the breakfast would add to the mandatory Portuguese experience. Otherwise 100% perfect stay. Excellent swimming pool with sea water. Yes. The rooms are somewhat dated but super clean and comfortable. I didn't came here to see golden chandeliers so l was super satistied! Excellent location and direct sea access. What more could one look for??

My stay at this hotel was truly exceptional. The lady at reception was very helpful, easy to talk to, and explained everything clearly from the moment I arrived. The room was amazing, with a beautiful view that made the experience even more special. All the staff were excellent and friendly. The two girls working at the bar in the afternoon were wonderful — unfortunately I forgot their names, but one of them was Venezuelan. They were both very welcoming and professional. The breakfast team was always respectful and ready to help. One lovely lady was so thoughtful that she prepared my outdoor table setup in the morning before I had even picked my food. The gentleman who seemed to be the manager handled the staff and operations very smoothly — you could really feel how organized and professional everything was. I also noticed the lady who I believe is the GM. She looked incredibly hardworking, present during the afternoon, evening, and morning, always supporting her team. I even saw her celebrating staff birthdays with them. This is exactly how true leadership should be. Anyone looking for real hospitality should visit this hotel. As a Hospitality GM myself, I can confidently say this is an approved place to enjoy a wonderful experience with your loved ones. Thank you to the entire team for such a memorable stay.Keep it up

Service and food was excellent, with beautiful ocean views and infinity pool. Pool table was good but not much activities at teen club. Steam room was out of service during our trip. Overall a good, relaxing break.

Я выбирала отель с видом на океан по доступной цене. В итоге, нашелся отель с очень просторными номерами, панорамным окном, кофе/чай, удобной ванной комнатой с биде, большим балконом. Единственные моменты: раздельная кровать для пары и слабоватый душ. Шум ночных волн на любителя:) Нам пришлось закрывать дверь на балкон, хотя и так было довольно шумно. Сервис очень дружелюбный.  Завтрак вкусный и свежий. Много выпечки, напитки, нарезки и горячее.  Не ожидала, что будет бесплатный трансфер до центра и обратно. Абсолютный плюс этого отеля, потому что находится он не в шаговой доступности от центра.  Виды, чистота возле отеля, свой пляж - это потрясающе.  Далее мы проживали в частном секторе и много что посмотрели на острове, но первые две ночи в Orca Praia остались в нашем сердечке💘 С уважением,  Елена из России

the location was great with a car, so we could travel the island. the hotel was more than we expected. the service was perfect. the room is big, excelent view, great souna and pool. very recommanded

Wir haben 3-Sterne gebucht und eigentlich das Erwartete bekommen. Frühstücksbuffet war reichhaltig, da aber 2 Hotels von Dorisol hier zusammen verköstigt werden, hat das dann den Charakter einer besseren Jugendherberge. Beginn 7:30 h ist für Wanderer zu spät. Personal generell sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Aufstieg zur Rezeption mit 120 Treppenstufen etwas mühselig. Für den Indoorpool muss man reservieren (!), aber Becken zum Schwimmen zu flach, Massagestrahler kaputt, Whirlpool kalt und blubbert kaum, kann man komplett vergessen. Zimmer abgewohnt, Schimmel im Bad in den Duschecken, aber Betten waren gut. Hatten Oceanview gebucht, Zimmer in 8. Etage aber mehr ein Tree-View, am Baum vorbei konnte man etwas das Meer sehen, das ist eine Mogelpackung. Hinter dem Hotel ca. 30 m Luftlinie Privathaus mit 12 Hunden, die ab 6 h anfangen zu bellen. Sehr, sehr nervig. Kühlschrank schloss nicht richtig, da vereist, somit Wasser in der Bude, habe ich selbst gerichtet. Fazit: nicht empfehlenswert

A localização é boa mas como fica numa avenida principal existem muitas motas a passar durante a noite. Infelizmente a nossa estadia coincidiu com obras num prédio ao lado e as 8h00 já estavam a trabalhar os martelos pneumáticos. De qualquer forma o hotel é mal insonorizado e ouve-se muitos barulhos dos quartos ao lado. A casa de banho já precisa de ser reformada. Ainda tem banheira com cortina. O pequeno almoço é bom! E no geral o hotel tem boa apresentação.

We booked a triple room 3 beds last min with late bird price. However they gave us double room 2 beds. It's on the 1st floor just next to tennis court which is quite noisy. It's 31 degree F, no air conditioner. Only 1 tiny window can be opened for fresh air but its facing a foot path with many guests access to the indoor pool, gym...etc. Not enough privacy. Location is ok as many small supermarkets, restaurants and bus stops near by within walking distance. Hotel facilities are good for the price.
