Funchal's historic and cultural centre is just a pleasant 15 minutes’ walk away – a flat stroll along the port from the seaside annex Penha França Mar, or a steeper walk through the lovely Santa Catarina park from the original hotel complex.
Botanical gardens, shopping centres, municipal theatre, museums, restaurants, bars and cafés plus many more interesting places to visit are close by.

The hotel complex comprises two distinct sections: the original part, sitting on a cliff, was built around an old manor house, surrounded by luxuriant, subtropical gardens, whilst a more recent addition, the Penha França Mar, is located right on the ocean shore with direct access to the sea via a swimming platform.
A small footbridge and a lift connect the two hotels, and the guests have access to all the facilities offered.
