Video: Afternoon Tea at Belmond Reid’s Palace, A Timeless Madeira Tradition

During my latest visit to Madeira, I made a point of capturing as much footage as I could with my new camera, taking it everywhere I went. At first, I wasn’t sure what I would do with it all—but after filming an afternoon tea experience, I decided to turn it into this video (with the help of some slightly cringeworthy AI narration 😅).

Let me know what you think—and if you’ve ever experienced anything like this!

Welcome to afternoon tea at Belmond Reid’s Palace—an elegant tradition steeped in history, refinement, and the art of slowing down.

Set on a sunlit terrace overlooking the Atlantic in Funchal, this timeless ritual invites you to unwind and savour the moment. From delicate pastries to perfectly brewed tea, every detail reflects a legacy of sophistication and hospitality.

If you find yourself in Madeira, this is one experience you simply won’t want to miss.

☕ A celebration of tradition, taste, and breathtaking views.

    Beautiful view but you’re right about the AI narration. Brought back memories of a short stay on the island several years back. Thanks

    It looks wonderful. I am definitely a fan of afternoon tea here in England. I love the sun terrace and if I visit Funchal again, I will have to book Reids Palace. 🙂
