Wonderful holiday in Madeira
We had a wonderful holiday in Madeira staying at Quinta da Penha de Mar. The hotel was perfect for us as couple, not flashy and upmarket like many of the big hotels along the main strip. It was in a great location close to the port and harbour and within walking distance of the main town, shops and restaurants. The staff were so friendly and helpful, particularly would like to mention Marilyn who always had a smile for us. Lovely swimming pool area, always found a sun bed and felt safe enough to swim in the sea from a platform. Helpful life guard always watching to keep people safe. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Downside were the pillows which were rock hard and uncomfortable.We ate mainly at the Brothers which was a restaurant, part of their sister hotel Quinta da Penha de Franca. We ate from the set menu which was a very reasonable 25euros pp and varied daily. We celebrated our Silver wedding anniversary during our stay and were supposed to have a Madeira cake as a treat from the hotel but were given a bottle of fizz instead. Unfortunately we both don’t drink. All in all we had a wonderful holiday. So much to see and do that we will need to return and would definitely stay at Quinta da Penha again.
