Meliá Madeira Mare is a beautiful seaside hotel with stunning ocean views and a modern, elegant design. The rooms are spacious, clean, and many offer breathtaking balconies overlooking the Atlantic. The staff is friendly and attentive, making the stay very comfortable. The pool area is relaxing, and the breakfast buffet has a great variety of fresh options. The location is convenient, close to Funchal center. Overall, a great choice for a relaxing and stylish getaway.
Lovely hotel. Well appointed with beautiful sea views. Excellent food at both breakfast and dinner. Staff were without exception totally customer focused, couldn't do enough to make the customer experience a great one. Special thanks to Artur and the guys on reception who patiently helped my MIL with her lost luggage. Thank you for making it a great holiday.
Beautiful hotel with wonderful pools. Seated by the outdoor pool with a great sea view was a real bonus. Generous sized rooms and good breakfast with a huge choice. The staff were friendly and Diogo on reception was particularly charming. We had a wonderful week there, the second visit for my son and his wife.
Enjoyed our stay here for a few days and overall very few complaints. Our major one was the quality of food on the breakfast buffet. Food was plentiful and service very good but the quality of the food was not very good. It is a large hotel with classic continental breakfast and some hot items. After 3 days we were ready to not eat there anymore. Our room was excellent and very large.
This was our fifth stay at Meliá Madeira Mare and, once again, it reminded us why we keep coming back.
The hotel enjoys a fantastic location, comfortable rooms, beautiful sea views and everything we need for a relaxing stay in Madeira. However, what truly sets it apart is the people.
Across every area of the hotel, the standard of service is consistently outstanding. The team are friendly, professional and genuinely committed to ensuring guests have a great experience. There is a warmth and authenticity to the service that is increasingly rare to find.
Many hotels can offer similar facilities, but what makes Meliá Madeira Mare special is the atmosphere created by the people who work there. Throughout our stay we felt welcomed, valued and looked after, and that is what keeps bringing us back.
The greatest compliment we can give is this: we have already booked our sixth visit for November to celebrate our wedding anniversary and are planning to return again next June for a seventh stay.
That says everything about how highly we regard this hotel.
Highly recommended.
