Overview
- hotel description
- Pestana Miramar description
The Pestana Miramar with its traditional Madeiran décor and tropical gardens shares its extensive grounds and facilities with the Pestana Village. With views towards the Atlantic, it makes for the perfect Madeiran get-away.
Blending traditional Madeiran décor with modern facilities
The traditional features in the hotel pay homage to the Miramar Hotel that was built back in the 1920s and used to exist on this land. As you wander around certain parts of the hotel you’ll notice grand architectural details as well as beautifully selected antique furnishings. This said, the hotel also has modern facilities including a large outdoor swimming pool with a separate area for children to splash around in (some facilities are shared with neighbouring hotel Pestana Village Resort). You can also pay locally to enjoy the spa and health club which offers an indoor pool, whirlpool, sauna, fitness room and Turkish bath. For some friendly competition you can head to the games room where you’ll find a snooker table and table tennis.
Perfectly positioned
The Pestana Miramar is situated in a great location to make the most of all Funchal and the surrounding areas have to offer. Sat in a slightly elevated position, just a short distance from the sea front, you can admire those views of the Atlantic ocean as you wander around the hotel grounds. You’re also just a 30-minute walk from the centre of Funchal of you're up to the challenge of combatting a few hills to get there – pop into a bar for a Poncha, peruse the vibrant colours of the market or wander down Rua de Santa Maria and admire the beautifully painted doors.
Tropical gardens, perfect for walking
The gardens at the Pestana Miramar are a tropical paradise with over 5,000m² to explore with an array of plants, flowers and trees to enjoy. Around the garden you’ll catch glimpses of the shimmering ocean and there’s even a giant chess hidden amongst the flowers.
