Villa Sao Goncalo  

Just outside central Funchal, minutes from Palheiro Golf Club and the Pinnacle Viewpoint. About 3 km from the city center and a short drive to Funchal Marina. A mix of a standalone villa and a family-friendly aparthotel in a golf-side, easy-to-reach location.

Rooms range from individually decorated guestrooms to full-kitchen apartment-style suites and a private villa option. Expect kitchens with full-sized refrigerators, ovens and microwaves, separate sitting areas and flat-screen TVs. The property blends relaxed island décor with practical touches like an elevator and a children’s playroom.

Take a dip in the outdoor pools, sweat it out in the fitness center, or serve up something from the barbecue area. There’s a spa offering massages, body treatments and facials, plus an outdoor tennis court and table tennis for active days. Onsite parking, car rental and a 24-hour airport shuttle are available (surcharges may apply).

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property keeps you connected. Additional conveniences include a computer station and express check-in.

Two on-site restaurants include the Club House serving Mediterranean cuisine, plus a bar/lounge for drinks. Buffet breakfasts are offered daily (for a fee), and the villa option also features an onsite restaurant and BBQ facilities for casual meals.
