Enjoyed our stay (2-weeks) in this great hotel, friendly team, very helpful. Weather was very warm at 23 celsius in November, often a bit windy in the afternoon.
Great food, especially in the restaurants. If you need food for your soul, the church service in the English Church in Funchal is inspiring.

Great location, great staff and amenities
Great location with all available amenities. Easy access to Forum Madeira mall as well as Funchal attractions. The staff are extremely positive and proactive to make your stay comfortable. Only negative is that the hotel needs a revamp with the flooring in the common areas, the dining area a bit run down. The rooms are really good size but again, the furniture needs a revamp.

Madeira's a great spot to vacation and we thoroughly recommend the Pestana Grand Ocean Resort. It's in a quiet location - about 25 mins drive from the airport, so no flight noise and far enough away from the cruise ship dock to be impacted by their daily arrival - but still convenient for Funchal via bus or walking along the promenade. The staff were great and very friendly/helpful, the room we booked had a fine ocean view and was spotless. We'd certainly stay there again.

Good all around resort, if a little quiet and sedate for some. Could use another seafood restaurant nearby instead of a couple of miles away. Maybe not charge for every little thing.
Still, we had a good stay.
