Planted among extensive banana plantations, the Hotel Vila Ramos on the island of Madeira, Portugal, is located one mile from the historic town of Funchal, named after its abundance of the aromatic herb fennel. The hotel is situated on a quiet hill and offers sun drenched views overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and mountains.
Guests can travel less than two miles to Funchal's Se Cathedral, which was built between 1493 and 1514 and features a Mudejar ceiling made of cedar wood, along with a Baroque carving of the golden Sacramento chapel. The Botanical Gardens, which include plants from all over the world, are situated three miles away. Madeira International Airport is 11 miles from the hotel.
The Hotel Vila Ramos contains a pool with children's area, along with a sauna and massage room. Visitors can enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner in leather-upholstered furniture at the Hotel Vila Ramos Restaurant, which serves international and regional cuisine amid a contemporary, wood-paneled setting. Snacks and light meals are featured poolside during the summer season, and guests can sip cocktails at one of the two on-site bars. The hotel also contains a library, game room, private parking area and panoramic terrace. Complimentary shuttle service is available to and from the hotel's sister property, which includes a sports park and fitness center.
The 116 guestrooms at the seven-story Hotel Vila Ramos feature direct-dial telephones, cable television, safe-deposit boxes and minibars.
