10/10 Exceptional

I loved it! I had a sea view and as expected the sunset was amazing from any angle of the hotel. I enjoyed the breakfast served here. The front desk staff were very professional & helpful. The location it's conveniently (15-minutes away from Funchal) if you decide not to rent a car since public transportation is reliable in the area, literally there is a bus stop right in front of the hotel.... Well recommended.

Ceara, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

In a great location if looking for somewhere a bit quieter but still with amenities in walking distance. Block C is the most convenient for the pool, bars and breakfast. Lovely stay and we wouldn't hesitate to return.
Mark, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was well appointed and clean. While it was difficult becoming accustomed to the European electrical system within the rooms, we were able to educate ourselves within a short period of time. The hotel was very clean, the staff was very accommodating and the meals were very good. The parking was a bit difficult as the garage was tight but we managed. Overall, would recommend the hotel to others.

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed staying at golden residence. Location was great, breakfast bar with lots of different options available, housekeeping was excellent. Although recenption staff were friendly they wouldn’t provide any information unless you ask them and I think hotel is missing some kids entertainment when we had heavy rainy days.

Big rooms, friendly staff. The only thing that could be better is the indoor pool area. Seems very old and some things are broken.
