"Opened in 1998, this 5 star lifestyle hotel is located in the centre of the city of Funchal and, provides all its guests a top exclusive and personalized service. The restaurant of the hotel "Casa da Quinta", that the Chef Fausto Airoldi supports, is already a gastronomic reference of the island. The bold architectonic project and its harmonious integration on a vast and ancient Estate was widely complimented by the international press and awarded with the Award of Architecture of Funchal in 1999. In August 2002 after a deep renovation the Quinta da Casa Branca was accepted as a member of the exclusive network of independent resorts "Small Luxury Hotels of the World". The Quinta da Casa Branca is the ideal place to enjoy a cocktail in the evening or to read a book. It's a true retreat in the busy city of Funchal."
