Tui Blue Gardens - Adults-Only - Savoy Signature

Room very clean. Very good buffet breakfast. Indoor pool nice. Highly recommend

First thing to say is, i feel harsh giving it a 4/5 review, as we had an excellent holiday. The staff are amazing, this was probably the highlight of the hotel. Zamir, Natasha and Gee were excellent. They work so hard to make sure your trip is as enjoyable as it can be. The aquafit being a particular highlight. The pool bar had a good choice of lunch options and it was all fairly reasonably priced for a hotel bar. The location is great. Go left down the hill and you'll get to Funchal in 30 mins, go right and you'll hit a ***** of lovely bars and restaurants. I'd recommended the 'orientation walk' when you get there it's a lovely introduction to Funchal. I only knocked it down a point because the evening buffet was a little lack lustre. There wasn't much choice and things didn't tend to go together. I expected there to be a bigger spread for a 4 star hotel. Also to note the rooms were particularly small, with very little room for storage and the balcony was tiny (we were at the side of the hotel though, the rooms facing the sea seemed to have bigger balconies). We couldn't sit in the chairs provided as there just isn't enough room for your legs. Overall though we would go back, maybe go bed and breakfast (lots of lovely local restaurants around) and maybe we would book a sea view room. We had such an excellent time, there was always something going on! Enjoy!

Small and friendly hotel with great staff especially Zamir who was working everyday, all day, on his day off, 12hr shifts making sure everyone had a great stay and made the most of the holiday. He’s straight forward honest and very knowledgeable. Credit to TUI & hotel. Hotel breakfast/dinner - no complaints plenty of choice (worth booking HB) Lunch & Drink prices are reasonable Hotel generally is very clean. We did 2 excursion’s 1. Exclusive Dramatic: well worth the price and excellent guide Grace. Best Island tour we have done 2. George’s family boat - what an amazing day out with the family. Best food we had all week was on these 2 tours. We would definitely book again if we returned. Definitely recommend speak to zamir Madeira dance show at hotel was fun to watch. All staff friendly & work really hard Thanks to everyone for the enjoyable stay.
