Very nice hotel in an amazing location, overlooking the sea and the cliffs, amazing view on the sunrise if the weather allows. Big room in the newest part of the hotel (added in 2020), quiet, with private balcony, confortable, nice attentions in the room, very clean. The staff was very nice, helpful and smiling. Big car park. Just off the Santana village where you find the famous triangular houses. 45' away from Funchal. Restaurant for lunch/diner is a few hundred meters away, very nice quality too.

FAQs about hotels in Madeira Islands

The Island of Eternal Spring

With lush landscapes, brightly coloured flowers and a mild, year-round climate, it’s easy to see why Madeira is called the ‘Island of Eternal Spring’. Its interior is mountainous, so most resorts are coastal, many at the foot of steep cliffs.

One such resort is Paul do Mar, a fishing village known for whale watching and surfing, as is Jardim do Mar, on a plateau just east. Nearby Calheta has 2 white sand beaches protected by breakwaters.

The main resort is the capital Funchal. Cascading down slopes, it has the lion’s share of 5-star hotels in Madeira on Booking.com. A cable car ascending into the hills offers fantastic views towards the harbour where cruise liners and ferries from neighbouring Porto Santo island are berthed.

East, Caniço’s sandy beach is nestled between rocky cliffs, while Santa Cruz is the nearest resort to Madeira Airport. Machico is the 2nd biggest city and has the best nightlife outside Funchal, but the best Madeira hotels for families are in quieter resorts such as Porto da Cruz in the north.

Santana is home to the triangular-shaped, thatched houses typical of the island, and twisting mountain roads lead to São Vicente, an attractive hill town with red-roofed houses. By the north-western tip is the village of Porto Moniz whose offshore rocks shelter natural rock pools.

The breakfasts and dinner were great and staff were always smiling and friendly. I celebrated my birthday and everyone was so lovely. Special thanks to our waitress and the bar staff who were always so friendly and cheerful. Walks from the hotel down to Calheta or up to the Levada are amazing. We will definitely return. Thank you!

    Unique location on the beach and a five minute walk into town. Excellent personal service and attention with a quick response to any issues. Front Office particularly friendly and efficient. The issue is that perhaps with the prices that are now being charged, expectations become higher.

    The only one real "city" on Madeira, very lovely, green, excellent choice of places for breakfast and dinner. Prices are also better than everywhere on an island. The cable car and Monte park are exceptional. You would probably spend more time travelling around the island than in Funchal itself. But transport connectivity is the best from Funchal as well, especially if you take buses

    Beautiful beach, nice nature.

    Beautiful beach, nice nature. The restaurants are rather expensive. Some of it might be due to extra costs of water and electricity. Still, the normal restaurant at Porto Santo is as expensive as a top restaurant in Lisboa. And no, quality of food is not the same. Best value for money was Mar e Sol. Other than that, I would come back.

    Machico resort is not for the night clubbing holiday maker, It was however for us a slow paced setting with a good selection of restaurants and supermarkets with walking routes for those who wish. The harbour offered boat trips, whale watching and surf lessons, the latter was enjoyed from the safety of a dry vantage point. Local bus into Funchal for 2-60 euro single was 50 mins away which opens up further opportunities for excursions and sight seeing like the red or yellow hop on hop off bus tours which operate from the promenade where the ticket is valid for 24 hours allowing to to spend time where the mood takes. Weather forecasting in resort will not take into account the drizzle from the mountains with can add a cooling break from the sunshine and occasional rain. Enjoy.

    Santana is a perfect location to explore the north coast. Not far away from airport and capital, but still on the north. Two hiking starting points are nearby: Queimadas and Achada do Teixeira. Santana also has an only large supermarket on the whole north coast, so you can buy delicious food right there. No such option in Porto Moniz or Seixal.
