Vidamar Resort Madeira - Dining Around, Free Dinner

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had. The hotel grounds are clean but our dated, with most furniture worn out. We stayed in the junior suite which is a new addition to the hotel. The hallways smelled like cigarettes. The hotel should add something to help with the scent, along with wall art and plants. The space was not inviting. The room although new lacked basic necessities. The shower needs a shelf for products. The staff seemed to be subpar. There needs to be more staff around the pool to offer pool service. Gilda, a front desk rep was very unpleasant and not welcoming. Lastly, the front desk wouldn’t answer the phone after 7pm on most nights. I had to call the hotel from my personal phone at one point. Will I stay here again? Absolutely not.

Gorgeous ocean front setting with couple infinite pools. Great for family vacations. The hotel offers free breakfasts and dinner in a buffet styled which is very nice. They also have a few restaurants for dinner options. Gym is also very nice too. If I have to suggest the hotel can be a bit better - I had wished the bed sheet (additional protective layer) can be a soft typed rather than a rough plastic film Tyler which makes every turn noisy and annoying so eventually we had to pull off this layer for a better sleep quality)

Great experience to stay at Vidamar hotel. Lovely and friendly staff that offer fantastic service. The hotel is located in a great area of Funchal with easy access of the Marina, town center or great starting point if you are heading to the mountains. We as a family had a great stay and enjoyed the facilities that this hotel had to offer. Just few things to mention, the rooms are clean and kept clean by very kind people. The pool facilities are excellent and the food options are amazing.

This was a random selection as the hotel hadn't been built the last time we visited Madeira. It was a great choice. It's a spacious, modern hotel onh a wide clifftop location and every room (300) with a sea view and overlooking the pool deck with two large infinity pools, two kids pools, and an indoor/outdoor pool. We a superior room on the upper levels (we paid - not much- to upgrade on arrival). The hotel has lots of glass, chrome and marble, all well maintained and spotless. Room was well equipped and, again, spacious with an enormous bed and its own balcony. Service was first rate - never seen anything quite so quick - other hotels should copy. Food buffets are extensive. Location is a reasonable walk to Funchal centre (or short bus ride) All in all, great and nothing to fault. 'Highly recommended'
