Curral das Freiras Spa Hotels

"Very comfortable hotel with amazing ocean views, clean, nice beds, excellent service. Breakfast was great, plenty of food to choose from. Decor is modern and fits very nicely with wilderness of Madeira. Strongly recommend for high quality hotel."

"The hotel is a solid offering for a good priced all inclusive. Serve your own drinks around the pool during the day. Constant snack bar. Great pizza. Yes, it’s focused more on the saga holiday demographic but in our 40’s, no kids, we don’t want roudy anyway! It’s perfectly located to walk into Funchal, have meals out when you want the variety etc. The negatives: Unfortunately my pyjamas went missing with the laundry, having been left on top of the sheets. Nothing in the hotel laundry, nothing in the contract laundry. They can’t just disappear! The pool was freezing - nice for actual swimming but too cold just to chill in. Dinner - if you go in after about 8pm, the nice salads (prawns / cold meat) had gone and were not replaced. We specifically checked what was on offer one evening and decided to stay in the hotel because of the offering but because we like a late dinner (we’re younger than the typical demographic of the hotel) the nicer stuff had gone. A real shame as we’d have eaten out by that time in the holiday. The menu in the à la carte restaurants could when been more varied - but we didn’t eat in them."

"Nice property, buffet breakfast and a nice variety of dinner options. "

"Great location."

"Amazing! Amazing staff! Great representation of Madeira. I can’t wait to come back! Awesome awesome!"

"The location deserves the highest praise, and the room was clean and comfortable. However, the view was disappointing as it overlooked the spa roof rather than the valley. The shower was excellent, although there was no bathtub. Breakfast was very basic, though this may be intentional to avoid overwhelming choice. The spa facilities themselves are great, but opening hours are limited to 10:00 AM–7:00 PM. Since we were out most of the day, we had to rush back in order to use them. In my opinion, hotel guests should receive either free or discounted access to the spa. Dinner was decent but very expensive, with extra charges for side dishes adding up quickly. If you have the chance, I would recommend dining in Funchal or the surrounding areas, where prices are much more reasonable."
