“Poor food”

We have visited Pestana Village in the past and returned Dec 2024 because it has very good customer service, the grounds are lovely and the hotel’s location makes it easy to walk into Funchal. As others have commented, Pestana Village is quite worn and is well overdue a thorough refurbishment. However the food during our recent stay was really poor and very disappointing. Mixed salads and vegetables that all tasted the same, tough meat and unappetising fish dishes that had been kept warm for hours, virtually no hot vegetable dishes and what there was very poor quality, blancmanges every evening of different colours but no flavour. It felt like everything is made using the cheapest available ingredients, probably from tins, jars or packets. With Jet2 we were paying the equivalent of £200 a day for a couple half board which really is enough to provide good quality, fresh food. Someone somewhere is making a very healthy profit! Despite the lacklustre food, all the staff were always friendly and helpful.

“A really nice and good hotel, but the food lags behind.”

The hotel is centrally located in relation to the city, the harbor and the large hotel area with the many restaurants. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed and with big balconies.

The hotel is centrally located in relation to the city, the harbor and the large hotel area with the many restaurants. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed and with big balconies. There are large common areas, a good pool area and a nice big garden. Everything is well maintained and clean but bears the mark of being a little worn. The staff at the hotel generally make a very good impression. Breakfast is okay. Unfortunately, the food at the evening buffet is a sad affair without much taste. The fish and vegetables were generally overcooked and dry. It was sloppy, disengaged and professionally poorly executed. The desserts, on the other hand, were reasonably good. The prices for drinks in the restaurant and in the bar are at the absolute high end.
