"This is a beautiful hotel based on a former gentleman's farm. It is close enough to the city to make access easy but just far enough away from the center to feel slightly secluded. For those who enjoy travels with something of an historic appeal, Quinta da Bela Vista hits the spot."

Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira

10/10 Excellent
"Reid’s is a beautiful property with multiple pools and diving access to the ocean. Our stay involved changing rooms ( not the hotels fault), and not all rooms are the same. The first room had a walk in shower but the second room had a very slippery tub shower. There was construction going on during our stay that made for noisy afternoons. The food was really good and there are multiple restaurants, however, I would reserve a table in advance of your stay to guarantee your spot at dinner. The service was exceptional."

8/10 Good
"After moving to an air conditioned room and getting the premium drinks upgrade our stay definitely improved. The staff were amazing and went out of their way to help you with whatever you ask. Evenings entertainment showed some great talent, most singers were amazing. Daytime activities were fun but were limited to very few. System for the shuttle bus to town could be improved as it was a free for all and people had to eventually get back off. Breakfast and lunch options were good however dinner was a hit or miss and we ate out a few times as a result. I would recommend this hotel as its waterfront location is beautiful however only if you get the upgraded options."
