The property is beautiful and rooms were very nice. Pools were clean but freezing cold, as none are heated except in the spa and there’s no hot tubs either. Coffee shop was excellent, the young lady that works there was amazing. Gelato place was good. The sports bar left a lot to be “desired.” Workers were rude and after ordering drinks 2 times we never received them. Took an hour to get our food when we ordered before others who received theirs in a fraction of the time. The teppanyaki was amazing and our chef was a delight. Carvao was okay, ordered our steak medium and it came out well done. Buffet was subpar and dinner was often cold. Overall, this resort needs some work but it was fine for a few days.

Really lovely stay at this hotel

The set up and architecture of the village is great. Staff in sports bar, cocktail bar, Oishii, entertainment and spa were great. The coffee in the coffee bar was fab and the staff there were lovely. There was always a sunbed which was good. Food in Oishii and Beach bar was particularly good. Having to book your restaurant at 8am the day of eating is a pain. Thankfully I'm a morning person so not such a big issue but it meant you had to sit with your finger ready at 8am or there'd be nothing available. I only found this out from other reviews not from reception. Food in world Cafe always only like warm, even if you were the first there! Reception service was very hit and miss. We weren't told on arrival that our bracelet opened our door, only found out when we went to get a second key card. Waited about 15 mins at reception while someone went through the whole app with someone checking in, finally a lady (skipped me and attended a woman behind me first) came over and asked if she could help. She was the one told us we didn't need a card to open the door. I asked for a robe and she said no problem and put it into her phone, I never got a robe. The day of checking out I asked for a packed breakfast as our flight was at 6:30. I was told this was no problem so we were put down for 2 packs, again I watched her put it into the computer. The next morning when we went to get it there was no record of it and no packs. I was really annoyed as I'd left nuts and small snacks behind.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lovely stay at Dreams Madeira We had a really lovely stay at Dreams Madeira. The resort was spotless, staff were friendly, and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. I’d definitely recommend booking a Preferred Club room — it really elevated the experience. The time of year we visited was perfect, not too busy, and the evening shows were great. The only areas for improvement were the restaurant booking system, which wasn’t very straightforward (we could only book via reception as Preferred guests), and the sun-lounger cushions — they weren’t always available and, when they were, some were a bit mucky. Easy enough to fix with a towel, but slightly off-putting. Overall, a wonderful experience — we’d happily return!

The place was nice, the beach within the hotel is great, staff are all very friendly and helpful, and the activities held by the resort are lovely. However: The floor of our room was filthy and was never mopped by the staff when they cleaned during the time we were there. Two of us got food poisoning that lasted 24 hours (we only ate at the hotel). This caused one of us to be unable to attend the whale/dolphin watching and due to it being too short notice, we were refused a refund on the cost of the trip. There are no security cameras near the lifts and toilets, which is pretty worrying as a woman. We found this out because one of us accidentally left their handbag in the toilet near the restaurants for 30 minutes and upon returning, the contents of it had been stolen. The bar service is painfully slow, especially the bar near reception, easily waiting an hour to order and receive a drink.They also dont play music and it's just awkwardly quiet in there, but it's the only one open late. There is minimal evening entertainment and everything stops around 11pm. It's very dull. The Mediterranean restaurant was pretty bland, and the tappenyaki restaurant was nice but a pretty minimal effort from the chefs. The Aircon broke in our room on our penultimate night. We noticed in the morning that it no longer stayed on and just shutdown suddenly despite working fine before. As we were leaving early the next day we didn't bother raising this.

Please refer to google for our full review with pictures and additional details! Avoid at All Costs – Not a 5-Star Resort (Closer to 3 at Best) My wife and I stayed here 6 nights for our honeymoon (booked via Expedia) and it does not meet Dreams standards. We’ve stayed at Tulum, Riviera Maya, Cabo — this resort doesn’t compare. Arrival: No welcome drink/towel, no luggage help, no escort, phones never worked (safety issue). Room Service: €20 per order, limited menu, late-night “option” was a cold ham & cheese bagel. Phones broken, so all requests had to be made in person. Towels/Housekeeping: Inconsistent service, fresh towels only with tips, many ripped or stained. Pool towels only from 1 far location and had to be signed out. Water/Drinks: Bottled water scarce, gym cooler broken, alcohol bottom shelf, wine upgrade €35. Cleanliness: Stained curtains/sheets, dirty glasses/dishes, ant infestation in room and buffet, insect in bathtub, mouse at restaurant. Food: Often cold/bland, poor variety. “Unlimited à la carte” misleading — reservations almost impossible. Service: Minimal to non-existent. Long waits for menus/water, staff disengaged, language barrier huge. Facilities: Pools freezing, spa unusable 2/3 days with chemical issues. Lobby bar too small, toiletries poor quality. Departure: No help at 3 AM checkout, staff didn’t ask about our stay. Not a 5-star property — major issues with service, food, cleanliness, and management. Strongly recommend avoiding.

Ants eating the eggs at breakfast buffet

Spa Hydrotherapy Pool was unavailable due to “chemical imbalance.” On the third day, chemicals were dumped into the water while guests were there. No compensation was offered.

This was a “fresh clean glass” that was brought to us at breakfast with lip stick residue

We had a lovely honeymoon staying here. The food was great and the views were excellent. However, there were some issues with the resort. We had an issue with ants in our room, and even after they sprayed the room, we still had some which wasn't the greatest. Additionally, the dinner options were great, but they booked up extremely fast. I would make sure people know when checking in that you have to book your dinner reservation before 8:02am otherwise, it will be completely booked. At check in, they told us the dinner bookings are open between 8am and 4pm, but that's not quite true.

Beautiful location and very nice rooms. A la carte restaurants were impossible to reserve so had to eat at the buffet almost every meal. Staff did not seem happy to be there and were mostly international so didn’t feel much like Portugal. It was pretty isolated so we didn’t see much of the island.

We were disappointed with our stay at this resort. While the staff were friendly and kind, there simply weren’t enough of them to deliver the level of service expected from a five-star property. The buffet food was consistently lukewarm and lacked quality. Accessing the à la carte restaurants was nearly impossible, as reservations were always booked. We did experience an issue with our room, which was eventually resolved, and the Wi-Fi was spotty throughout our stay. We had upgraded to the Preferred Club, but in our opinion, it wasn’t worth the additional cost. Aside from a separate lounge with self-serve drinks and snacks and a private check-in area, we didn’t notice any real added benefits—especially since the regular check-in wasn’t busy when we arrived. On a positive note, the resort itself is beautiful. The rooms were stunning, and the surrounding grounds were truly picturesque. That said, for the price point, we expected a much higher standard of service and overall experience. There’s definitely room for improvement.
