Quinta Jardins Do Lago

Quinta Jardins Do Lago is an elegant 5-star hotel in Funchal, Madeira, set within a historic 18th-century manor house. This botanical retreat is famous for its 25,000 m² of varied gardens featuring a resident giant tortoise and a vast collection of exotic plants. Located on a hillside overlooking the city and the Atlantic, it offers a peaceful alternative to the busy harbor area, though the old town is only a short distance away. The property features a large heated swimming pool, a traditional billiard room, and a fine-dining restaurant that uses local ingredients. Each of the 40 spacious rooms and suites includes a private balcony or terrace facing the lush grounds. Practical amenities like a free weekday shuttle to the city center and accessible facilities make it a versatile choice for both relaxing getaways and family trips.
