Top 5-Star Hotels in Machico

Beautiful location. Splash pool and sauna unfortunately still not ready when we visited. Other services great though. Good selection of bars. In general good selection of food although we found the different restaurant a bit disappointing; it was mostly the same food as the buffet, only presented nicely. Apart from the check in where the reception kept accusing us of booking the wrong room for a family (we didn’t) generally great service.

The location is great; close to the airport and the sea. Many bad reviews have been written about hygiene, especially about vermin. We had a room on the 9th floor and did not see a spider, ant or cockroach. The hotel is old, including no good ventilation in the bathroom, few sockets and the air conditioning does not cool optimally. Despite that, we are happy that we spent the night here :)

There seems to be a small problem with the booking, which is why I was stayed in another hotel. Since it was late in the evening, the hotel owner drived me. That was incredibly nice from him. This is why I can't report so much about this hotel except the friendliness of the staff.
