XO Private - The Luxury Travel Collection
The finest online directory for the discerning traveller

A hotel with a soul, just like a good wine. The Vine is sophisticated and luxurious. A dip in the panoramic rooftop pool, a vinotherapy session in the spa or a gourmet dinner with a view over the city: these are just a few of the pleasures awaiting guests at The Vine. Located in the heart of the historic centre of Funchal, the hotel is an ideal starting point to explore Madeira.

Grey, green, purple and brown are the dominating colours of the hotel, representing the four different seasons and the maturation of a grape throughout the year, each colour designated to a floor where the 79 spacious rooms are to be found.

With Chef Antoine Westermann, holder of 3 Michelin stars, in charge of the kitchen, providing a masterly blend of expertise in French cuisine and the best natural local ingredients, and with an amazing panoramic view ‘UVA’ offers a superior kind of experience. In the Vinotherapy Spa, the ingredients from which the best wine is made, Merlot, Chardonnay and Cabernet, are always present. Nectar of the gods wine uplifts the soul.
