Quinta do Lorde Resort Hotel Marina

Beautiful location. It's nice and quiet here and a great place to relax. They offer complimentary breakfast, but it would have been nice if they mixed it up a bit from day to day. The rooms are nice and big, and we had a large patio to enjoy as well. The grilled octopus at the restaurant by the marina was great. Tuna steak was over cooked though. They also did not have an ironing board or iron in the room which we had to request and then was taken away after they cleaned our room. All in all a very enjoyable experience.

This excellent hotel was a real gem in our trip to Madeira. The hotel itself has a big territory, private beach with a pool with ocean water ( and also a regular pool in the territory). We had a suite, which was very nice, big, with comfortable bed and huge bathroom. The hotel offers a free parking, and it is better to have a car if you are staying here, it is far from anything else. Breakfasts are good, some time the refill of the food is coming late, but in general there is nothing to complaint about. You can have a breakfast on the balcony with a spectacular view to the ocean.

We were in the marina with our sailboat. It was the most peaceful marina we visited in all if Madeira. Showers are good, staff is helpful and scenery is beautiful. There are no ships, so you will need to travel to get groceries, best to come supplied .

If you want a quiet peaceful holiday in a beautiful place, the rooms are large and really nice with views over the marina, you can sit outside the captain's bar on the marina enjoying a glass of wine and some food while watching and listening to the yachts bobbing about as the sun goes down. It is very quiet and peaceful here, there is a tennis court and a good dive center, and whale watching trips from the marina, you will need to hire a car to explore the beautiful island with its stunning scenery. The downside of this hotel is that there was not much variety of food in the restaurant.

Quinta do Lorde resort was fantastic. It surely exceeded our expectations even for a short stay. We wished we would have booked longer.
They allowed us to check-in early upon request, offering friendly service accompanied with a welcome drink. They also were so nice as to upgrade our room without request or charge to a beautiful sea view room. We couldn’t have gotten luckier with our stay.
They also offer a number of pool amenities along with a private stone beach.
The marina was one of the best parts with a little market and the BEST diving center in Madeira. You never really need to leave the resort.
The only improvement could have been the food. It was by no means bad food, but not as traditional tasting as other restaurants in Madeira.
We would definitely recommend this beautiful but quiet getaway!!!!!

Despite the fact that it's located on the windiest part of the island, it is really a great place to spend some days, if you like peacefulness. The surrounding area is big and well cared of, but misses some more open businesses. In March we had only available 1 coffee shop and 1 restaurant in all the resort. In a nearby town, Caniçal, there are great fish snacks at really low prices. The rooms are well taken off and the staff are really helpful.

The property is very big. We stayed in one of the sea view suite rooms and it was lovely. The room was really big and had the most fabulous view of the sea from the balcony! This is like a small village with own swimming pools, restaurants, shops, parking places, the marina, bars, promenade, beach and even church!! Perfect for a quiet holiday. If you are looking for nightlife this isn’t the place for you. We enjoyed the sea pool and terrace during the day and were lucky to have some good weather! The surrounding area is fantastic for hiking. We had a hire car for the week, which was a great way to see the island, and to get to the hotel from the airport. A nice thing was that we were greeted with welcome drinks at reception. The staff and service were very helpful and friendly.

Very nice Resort with a beautiful view from some of the rooms over they bay or little harbour. However the staff (especially the older ladies at the restaurant) is not really polite. The younger staff is very kind and willing to make your stay a great experience. Very good location to start a hike to the east end of the island and to rent a kayak tour to paddle the bay.
