Vila Baleira Funchal

This is a nice hotel and the staff are very friendly and helpful. We had a sea view room on the 3rd floor which overlooks the main road which we liked but might be a little noisy for some. The beds are a little hard for our taste and pillows very small, had to ask for extra pillows which was not a problem. Room was cleaned every day and towels changed too if you throw them in the bath. Rooftop pool is small pleasant, a bit cold in December though. Pool bar reasonably priced decent food and drink during the day. All in all enjoyed our 9 day stay.

Amazing experience. Although Hotels.com did not pass on our full booking to the Hotel, the staff promptly ajusted the reservation to our requirements. Loved it all. Hotels.com lay down the booking quickly and the Lince Hotel promoted us a wonderful stay, an amazing experience. Thank you to all the Lince Hotel staff and Hotels.com.

The positive of this hotel is definitely the location. Right in the Lido area; it’s very handy to most of Funchal and it’s tourist spots. The hotel owe a lot to their staff too whom are very kind and welcoming. A few points that made I wasn’t so happy about: The room I booked stated an included breakfast, but when I arrived, they said I had to pay extra for it. The bathroom had fixtures missing. The room was very basic, and not as inviting as the images suggest, but it was still pleasant.
