Hotel Jardim Atlantico

The assessment of the location of the hotel is safe extremely from the expectations of travellers subject. But whoever is looking for peace and quiet is definitely very, very well cared for. The next town, Prazeres, is not very far away, but it's first steep uphill, so it's not a place for lazy walkers. As everyone should be prepared for this hotel because of its location, by the steep coast 500 meters high above the sea, often times in the clouds disappear. Almost every evening presents itself a fantastic sunset, the depending on weather and Wolkenlage from normal about adventurous, to breathtaking runs. Thanks to the newly-built street now this hotel is much faster than added on my last visit 6 years ago. If you look at the location on the internet, will notice that the road runs alongside apparently fairly close to the hotel, but not to worry, the road is in any area of the hotel. In town there was fairly limited shopping mall, a few newer building where you could, unfortunately empty. Like most I agree that you take a rental car for this hotel and to make you want to explore the island. The location of the hotel offers no restrictions as for most places the island over the new streets are easy to get to and if you want to enjoy the scenery of the island, runs in the old streets, as long as the time permits and then usually the possibility to return via the new streets to accelerate.

The service at the hotel is excellent. From the moment you arrive for all wishes was taken into consideration. The request for a room in the terrace houses was fulfilled, although another room quoted. At the older people was when it comes to choosing to detail and pointed out that the Studios in the main building are better then, problematic only if you booked apartment or bungalow. Advice from the front desk was very friendly and always willing to help. If the weather on the hotel was not as good, you could ask at the hotel, where the weather is better on the island. The staff spoke usually pretty good German, one can definitely get further along with English. Otherwise, the hotel offered everything you could imagine: Regular lectures on island, nature and the people - on the reception desk free, detailed suggestions for hiking in available, which is at the welcome detail - once a week the manager, the totally involved vegetation is a cultural guided tour of the place - as well as complimentary transfers to the neighboring towns Paul do Mar and Jardim do Mar down the coast. So you can here each a way to walk, and the other bus ride - Funchal is for a reasonable price of 20 euros - otherwise they will also offered trips and rental car at the front desk. The handling of complaints I can't say I had no and didn't hear.

The hotel's restaurant is comfortable and clean. The breakfast buffet was gigantic. For people who went fault, I wonder what you at home for breakfast. It has 10-14 different kinds of bread and rolls, if you care to look, as many rolls in a variety of versions. The bread at the hotel baked rolls, I wasn't too sure, but everything was very tasty. Also the 5 types of jam and yogurt for cereals are homemade. The 4 -5 juices are freshly made. Good, sausage and cheese for some perhaps a bit short, but also here is simply the vegetarian options noticeable. happy you can appreciate if you have booked half-board. As the excellent evening buffet is with 27.50 Euro very expensive. Each week day there's another, mostly typical of the country, theme, the emphasis is mostly on fish, but usually even the meat and vegetarian at their own expense. There were always several salads and hot vegetables, for vegetarians mostly also a to two other vegetarian dishes. The dessert you could not create the selection. Everything was very tasty and tasty. Very well seasoned, with salt is handled reasonable and sparse, as I expect a bio- and Wellnesshotel. A shame that many, without having to costs pulled salt.

The outdoor pool made a very good impression, has a decent size and is very well maintained. Due to the weather though was only rarely used. The indoor pool is very small. For water treatment will only organic produce. The spa area made a good impression, but the rates are quite high. The grocery store is the most important thing on board, is safe a little more expensive than in the normal shop, but the prices are not overly. An absolute must is the 800 meters long Barfußpfad. Key and towel were available at the front desk. The descriptions are true it has been removed and spoiled our feet for the is not so easy, really feel like you are new born. Moreover, from here also brilliant views to the neighboring valley.

The had a studio room size by some 30 sqm, is right outside the entrance with a small kitchen, which is the most important to the kettle and toaster includes. The bathroom is large, with bath, toilet, bidet, and large vanity. In the living/sleeping area there is a big wardrobe, desk, a small sofa with a table and chair as well as a small table with two chairs. A flat screen TV on the wall, the unfortunately not all programs played back. closes in the terrace houses a lounge, a about 10 sqm large terrace. The cleanliness is very good, the condition. Close to the front desk are also descriptions about the Feng Shui-concept of the hotel, this explains the guestroom color schemes.

If you like disturb, should it out just accept: in many areas of hotels there is due to its location no cell phone reception (especially in the terrace houses). join the homecoming reception manager is with heart and enthusiasm. Otherwise you can always around the hotel to advise you if you see, and takes time for you ask.
