Reviews based on Amenities
My wife and myself are currently holidaying in Madeira and having spent our first week at the impressive Casa Velha do Palheiro Hotel, the second and third ones at Quinta Splendida Botanical Gardens & Wellness Centre at nearby Canico (see subsequent Reviews), we are now spending our last 6 nights in a 2 Bedroomed Apartment in Palheiro Village.||||The Village itself is made up of a variety of different Apartments and Villas and accessed either via the Main Gate or the entrance next to Palheiro Golf Clubhouse - extremely convenient for visitors such as ourselves without a car(something strongly recommended for those planning on exploring the Island) looking to play golf and eat at the Clubhouse (see Reviews) as well as visit Funchal. The latter can be assessed by local Bus No38 with the Stops conveniently located near the Main Entrance.||||Other facilities available to Village guests include a nice Swimming Pool area which also has a table tennis table and equipment.||||On the Management front, the key person is Cristina who is based at the Golf Clubhouse. She was extremely helpful both before our visit and throughout our stay. In addition, all the Palheiro properties are COVID compliant with masks still required inside and no shortage of hand sanitizers.||||Another most enjoyable aspect to our return visit to this lovely Island which we will, no doubt, repeat before too much longer!
