I thought it was a nice touch that she wrote her first name on my keycard holder so I could ask for her by name if I had any questions.

Belmond Reid’s Palace

Arrival/Check-In: Landing early at Madeira Airport, an architectural marvel, we picked up our rental car for a little tour of Funchal before heading to the hotel. After taking the cable car to the peak in the village of Monte and the Botanical Gardens, we set our sights on checking in. The hotel lies just west of the center of town and up a high hill, offering spectacular views.
