This charming hotel is situated directly beside the sea on the south coast of Madeira, just 50 m from the wonderful beach. From its cosy rooms guests can enjoy stunning view over the crystal blue Atlantic as well as of the picturesque village of Ponta do Sol. The surrounding area houses a number of shopping facilities and entertainment venues, while the coffee shops and bars that line the promenade are the perfect final destination for a leisurely evening stroll. The venue itself also boasts an air-conditioned restaurant with a spacious terrace where one can sample delicious seafood, sip white wine and enjoy the mesmerizing views and the soothing breezes. When the weather isn't that great the venue has its guest's well-being taken care off with the heated indoor swimming pool and the massage services it offers.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
The room was incredibly spacious for just two people, the beachfront location, and also walking distance to restaurants, couldn’t be better. We had an amazing view of the ocean right from our window, and the sunsets were absolutely breathtaking every evening. The mix of beach and charming architecture made the whole experience even more special. If you're visiting Madeira, this place is a must!
We just stayed at the hotel and we really enjoyed it . The customer service is outstanding. Specially Celia Fretas is very helpful and goes above and beyond to accommodate customer needs. The breakfast is good and has a lot of variety. The room is always clean . It is great location close to everything
Thank you to Celia (with an accent) for a memorable stay in early October (Room 403). Special thanks to the lady breakfast chef whose omelettes are properly cooked and presented . It is not often to find a hotel where all the staff are kind and helpful.
Hope to stay again one day.
Nice hotel in a quiet location. Ideal if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of Funchal. Our room was clean and spacious but I was surprised that our balcony was not cleaned during our stay. Pigeon poop! The breakfast was generally good with a wide selection of which to choose from. We ate dinner in the restaurant once, it was ok. I thought the idea of 'Show Cooking' is that the food is cooked for you while you wait, but we just had two previously cooked steaks warmed up in front of us! Bit bizarre. Sun Spot Cafe was our go to place. Lovely food and great view. We also walked the Levada Moinho & Nova. Steep walk to the start of these, but worth it. Be wary booking the hikes through MB Tours. Ours got cancelled at the top of Pico Do Arieiro before we had even started the paid for trail. Communication was not great and some people in our group were not in the best of health to be taking on a hike like this. Overall we did enjoy our stay
We had a great overnight stay here, wish we could’ve stayed longer! The location is superb, right on the ocean front within minutes walk of all the major sights of Porto do Sol. Small markets and eateries just out in front of the hotel. There is a good, free, secure parking area beneath the hotel. Our room was huge, bright, and airy with beautiful ocean views. Everything was clean and comfortable. We had a small fridge, smart TV, and good internet connection. The buffet breakfast was excellent, pretty much everything you could ever want, plus some. We made use of the fitness room one morning and found it to be very basic, barely useable. There were two pieces of cardio gear, plus a very poorly maintained cable multigym, and a few random dumbbells of up to 8kg – and not even matching pairs! One of the highlights was the rooftop terrace which has comfortable seating and deck chairs/umbrellas where you can enjoy the sea views in the evening sunlight. Overall we had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend this place to other travelers.
