The hotel is up high on a hill , and it is always wet and foggy.
The property is beautiful, service is great, but it is always rainy

El hotel es impresionante… los alrededores con los jardines, casa del te, el spa y la piscina…. Todo es realmente increíble. Una pena haber pasado allí solo una noche… el desayuno en el jardín es todo un lujo… nos ha gustado todo!!!!

The location was perfect, away from the hustle and bustle of Funchal. The hotel was beautifully serene, excellent service without being over the top. Complimentary access to adjacent gardens and a challenging golf course gave us everything we wanted for a winter break.

A very pleasant and relaxing week, just outside of Funchal. Fantastic property with an even more fantastic garden as the nearest neighbor, we would highly recommend a stay

In early May this year my wife and I returned once again to spend some time in Casa Velha. We came with the usual high expectation of good service, quality and traditional comfort, sadly our hopes were severely dashed! I could detail all the various poor issues that we experienced but I resist as too numerous to mention! Maybe the best way to express our disappointment is to say, your standards have fallen below acceptability. While some of the staff did their very best to help us, they were obviously uncomfortable and embarrassed in the hotel’s demise. We have enjoyed our visits in the past.
