Quinta B.

Phenomenal location, service, breakfast and calming atmosphere. Stunning views and pool. The breakfast was different every day, served on a cream tea style tiered plate with fresh and local ingredients. We were welcomed with a Maderian wine, complementary biscuits and water. Rooms were spotless and tidied every day. It was a 5* hotel experience.

Quinta B is located in the old part of Funchal within walking distance to the harbour and old town restaurants. Hence, you do not have to take the bus nor a taxi. The B&B is perfectly managed by the owners who offer a fantastic, individual breakfast every morning. They are also very friendly and helpful. Rooms are comfortable and perfectly clean. Thank you Heide and Jochen!

5* for breakfast, views, comfort and access to restaurants This lovely small (4 rooms), very well appointed B&B has rightly received excellent reviews. We stayed in the Porto Santo room for 4 nights in November 2022. A very comfortable room and bed, en-suite with rain shower, safe, lots hanging space and drawers, Socket and light switch near bed for phone charging. Breakfasts - wow!, laid out like an afternoon tea tray: top layer fruit pieces and cake; middle - butter, homemade jams or local honey or sugar cane syrup, yoghurt; bottom layer cheeses, ham or chorizo, tiny fresh salad, all accompanied by fresh bread rolls, and omelette or eggs if ordered the night before. Great coffee, with refills, freshly squeezed orange juice. Outside terrace with views over the harbour with a small pool, a stroke or push to the other end, but great to cool you down on a hot day, even in November, ample sitting areas for guests. Views - from front terrace to the sea, port, city to the west with cable car, great place to watch cruise ships arrive or depart. Location - surprisingly peaceful, 5 minutes’ walk from old town with lots of restaurants and cafés. Easy access to city centre for buses and excursions. We used bus 29 - an amazing trip in itself, €1.95 skilfully driven up countless hairpin bends to a levada walk along to the Jasmine tea house at 600 metres or more above sea level. Note this b&b has lots of steps at the entrance so if you have mobility difficulties then it probably isn’t for you. Recommended? Yes 100%
