Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    We really liked our stay. The hostel is in a great location, close to the beach, restaurants and supermarket. The room we stayed in was very comfortable and quiet. The windows face the main street, but the room was not noisy. The insulation is very good, and the room also has a fan in case of heat. Very easy check in and check out.

    Location is great, away from the hussle of funchal and good for exploring the west side of the island (this might not be to everyones liking though). Resturant options are good too with 3 or 4 to choose from and the buffet changing theme each night. Staff were friendly and helpful when needed. View from the bedroom was amazing. Infinity pool is in a great location.

    Great location, on cliff overlooking the ocean with amazing views. Big comfortable room (studio) with small kitchenette, bathroom, twin beds, seating area and balcony; very spacious. Friendly and helpfull staff. Nice common room with fireplace. Some other reviews were unimpressed by the food but I disagree: it's not a gourmet restaurant but the breakfast and dinner buffets were varied and of good quality (during my 5-day stay). Excellent value for money - would stay there again.

    Great location - good starting point for exploring the western part of Madeira. A supermarket is close by and several restaurants within walking distance. The exterior of the house is beautiful, there is a large garden with seating and kitchenette with barbecue grill (although we didn't use it much, because - at the end of May - the weather was too cold to sit outside). The house has a distinct traditional feel, photos are exact. Except for the bathroom, all rooms are really large and spacious.
