Our 4th visit to the Quinta and we will be back. Food is totally amazing, having breakfast outside surrounded by bird song and lush stunning gardens, tended by a wonderful team of gardeners. The beautiful Beresford restaurant. The Quinta manor house is stunning. The staff are what brings it all together with such care and detail. Bedrooms are spacious, elegant with beautiful bedding, taken care of by the dedicated team. The pool and sun bathing areas are immaculate. A very special place ! Well done to all

A top hotel with very close attention to detail. Great food, service and a soothing, relaxed atmosphere.
The pool area and gardens are stunningly beautiful.
We booked a junior suite to celebrate our 30th anniversary and were very impressed. We had a lovely balcony overlooking the gardens and sea. The hotel went above and beyond to make our stay feel special.
There is a great free WiFi service that covers every square inch of the hotel,
pool area and grounds.
Evening dining options alternate between the indoor ‘Beresford’ restaurant and the outdoor terrace. Breakfast is served every morning on the terrace and comprises of a combined self-service buffet/ table service for cooked dishes.
Lunch is served by the pool daily until 5pm.
There is, of course, room service.
We had a lovely week-long holiday and would highly recommend this hotel.
Funchal, like most of Madeira, is very hilly. From the hotel, it is about a mile down a very steep hill to the marina, bars, shops, museums and restaurants. The hotel offers a complementary shuttle bus to and from the marina area. However, this ceases at 17.45. Taxis are plentiful and relatively inexpensive at around 12 Euros each way.
There are a good range of organised trips that can be arranged through the hotel. We booked some of these which we found well organised, informative and value for money.
This was our first visit to Madeira and we were very well looked after!
This is the third time we have stayed at Quinta Jardins do Lago. It was so very relaxing wandering through the lush gardens, visiting Colombo, the Galapagos turtle. The pool area serving lovely bar meals. The restaurant has a menu which changes daily and an ala crate menu, the food is different but delicious. The staff in all areas of the hotel are wonderful. I would definitely recommend staying here.
We had a wonderful stay in this lovely hotel surrounded by the most beautiful gardens. The food was amazing and all the staff were very friendly and attentive. Our room was clean and comfortable and had a wonderful view. Thank you for making our first stay in Madeira truly special.
