We stayed for 7 nights (family of four, two rooms). The hotel was impeccably clean, the staff were all really friendly and helpful, the food was excellent - I'd go back there any time!

Beautiful hotel, friendly staff, clean, great food, stunning location. 10/10! All of the staff were amazingly welcome and great with our 4 year old. Marisa (on reception) went above and beyond to make our holiday perfect. We can’t thank her enough. This was our second stay as a family and we will definitely be back again!
My daughter and I have just returned from staying at this wonderful hotel, we had an amazing stay. Extensive breakfast, lovely staff, great location. Highly recommend. We loved this hotel and Madeira and plan on returning. Definitely book a room with a sea view if you can.
Our first visit to Madeira found us staying in the Western suburbs of Funchal at the Baia Azul 4* hotel. It's location overlooking the bay with the solitary rock we liked to call Dwayne was ideal for coastal walks in both directions. A good hour walking to the west is where you'll eventually find the gorgeous fishing village of Camara de Lobos, a favourite with Winston Churchill. Also navigable via bus. There's a handful of bars along the promenade for the odd pitstop which also applies in the opposite direction towards Funchal to the East. There's plenty of eating establishments locally and lots more a short bus, taxi ride or free hotel shuttle into Funchal city centre. We tried a few and didn't find any to be a disappointment. The hotel itself is 4* and is worthy of it's status. All the staff are friendly and attentive albeit some of the waiters during the breakfast service prefer not to engage in any pleasantries. Lots of choice for all tastes at breakfast. We didn't try the two other restaurants. Evening entertainment is varied, very good and chilled. Bar prices very reasonable for a 4* hotel. Shout out to a very hard working young gentleman called Arif. My wife really appreciated the little chocolate squares served with every hot beverage. Our sea view room on the 3rd floor had a comfy bed and everything you need and always clean and tidy. However, the cleaners do not replenish tea bags. I'd suggest bringing your own. Fridge is great and was ideal for chilling our locally purchased beer and mineral water. The pool and pool bar area is great although I think that some of the loungers are stretched and worn and could do with replacing. Bring your noise cancelling earphones if lounging near the edge of the pool. The infinity pool's slurping noises are a bit loud when the pool is being used. All in all, I'd definitely recommend this hotel.
