The EDEN Mar is part of a 3 teiligen hotel complex, all Bodies 3 hotels are mutually to use. Rooms are very big and furnishings dignified. A true feast for the eyes, the botanical garden, the fostered and maintained. Indoor and outdoor pool are partly heated, the Jacuzzis anyway. Supermarket is available and bus station after Funchal in front of the house, there is also a courtesy shuttle several times daily. Was the second time here and will gladly again come! Only the hotel atmosphere is for disabled persons certainly very difficult. Read more

very nice, well-kept hotel complex. Pool landscape and 2 indoor pools compensate for the ideal bathing possibilities in the ocean (only baths partially. Closed and no sandy beaches).
proximity to Capital Funchal and the shuttle bus are ideal for excursions.
to Madeira and will stay again to the hotel we come at any time gladly again!
for a hiking vacation I would because of rather wet and windy weather in the mountains rather a other season as the winter recommended. Read more

very good CT, spacious hotel area in a good location.
free Wi-Fi in the lobby, unfortunately unbelievably slow (this is a disgrace!)
good food with a big selection -as it is a little more than a distraction, that the breakfast no fruit juices, but only dispenser juices are offered, pity.
all in all still very positive. Read more
