4-star hotel with expansive tropical gardens and ocean views in Funchal
Gardens and Grounds
Pestana Miramar Garden & Ocean Hotel sits on the grounds of the former Hotel Miramar, a property once used as a retreat for Portuguese nobility. The gardens are filled with mature tropical planting, including bougainvillea and agave, spread across multiple levels with mountain and sea views. A bridge connects the main building to the Quinta Perestrello annex, which has its own pool and billiard room.
Pools and Wellness
The hotel offers three swimming pools: two outdoor pools and one heated indoor pool. The indoor pool area also has a sauna, a Turkish bath, and a hot tub. Guests can book massages, beauty treatments, and hairdresser services, and the fitness centre is open for use.
Dining
Three on-site restaurants serve guests: the buffet restaurant, the Miramar restaurant with a colonial tearoom aesthetic, and a burger bar for daytime snacks. Themed dinner nights include Italian, Madeiran, and vegetarian options, and half-board guests can also dine at the Pestana Grand's restaurants. Happy hour at the bar runs from 5:30 to 6:30 with discounted Coral beer and cocktails.
Family and Entertainment
A kids' club and a games room with pool tables and chess sets are available for children and families. Daily activities include aqua classes, yoga, pilates, and a Poncha drink demonstration led by the animation team. Live music performances and themed dinners provide evening entertainment without a loud atmosphere.
Location and Accessibility
The hotel is a 20- to 25-minute walk from Funchal city centre and a 5-minute bus ride from the lido area. Two supermarkets are within a few minutes' walk, and a bus stop with lines 1, 2, and 4 is right outside. Pets up to 15 kg are allowed, and the property offers accessible parking and lifts to all levels.
