We stayed for a week in this perfect hotel. The location is amazing. Staying with our teenage/early 20's children, we took 3 rooms - 105, 106 and 112. Each room has its own balcony with table and chairs to enjoy the view along with a little pull out drying rack. 105 being the smallest of the 3 rooms has a shower room with the best view of the ocean! 112 has a different view onto the ocean with a beautiful Mountain View combined. All rooms have a minibar. Rooms are clean and bright and it's lovely to fall asleep to the sound of the sea! We stayed half board which is something we don't normally do. Breakfast is varied, well stocked with something for everyone. Evening meal has the same menu every night and whilst there are a range of choices it does get repetitive. Food though is fresh and there are 3 courses. We actually arrived too late on our first night and staff offered us a lunch in the rooftop restaurant which was amazing. The staff are all very accommodating and speak a few languages. Towels are provided for the pool areas just remember to obtain a complimentary entrance ticket from reception before you go as the natural pools are actually run by a different company. We hired a car which we feel is a must in Madeira as this beautiful country has much to see and do. We were glad that we choose to stay in Porto Moniz as it is the quieter side of the island which suited us. The hotel itself was busy but also quiet at night making it the ideal place to stay.

Great location... honesty lacking from the hotel

The hotel is perfectly positioned about the natural pools and we had a lovely 6 night stay here, using it as a base to explore the island. Our room looked out over the ocean with fantastic views from the balcony. Housekeeping was very efficient and our room very clean and comfortable. We booked our stay on a HB basis and as an anniversary treat. Breakfast was fantastic with plenty of choice. Dinner could be taken at the rooftop restaurant or at the seaview restaurant. We preferred Seaview. However, we arrived to discover extensive renovations right next door to the hotel ..we assumed it was another Business until we called by reception to advise our bookings at Seaview could not be honoured as it was closing to allow kitchen equipment to be transported and installed ' next door' at the hotels new premises!! For the next few days breakfast was served at the rooftop restaurant, which had no means to keep hot food hot and only approx 10/12 tables were undercover and protected from the elements I understand that work needed to happen but I am very disappointed that the hotel were not upfront with the fact that facilities would be out of commission as a result of building work, especially for our anniversary itself. Most of the staff were fantastic and a real credit to the hotel.

I didnt realize this was on the other side of the island. I am happy we stayed here. Very quiet at night and everything you need right there. Be sure to rent a car if staying here. It cost 90 Euros from the airport to the hotel by taxi.

This hotel is situated in a very nice location facing the lava pools.The beds were comfortable, the balcony was spacious with a beautiful view of the ocean and the buffet breakfast was good. It is within walking distance to all sights in Porto Moniz . There is lots of parking available. Staff were friendly and efficient. We appreciated the thoughtful welcome and departure gifts.

A unique gem of a hotel. The views & sounds of being so close to the sea is incredible. Rooms are clean & modern, dining options, particularly the rooftop restaurant are superb. You definitely will need a hire car if you want to explore the local area, as porto moniz is quite small with just a handful of places to go.

Super friendly staff. Room was clean and comfortable, potentially due for some upgrades tho. Tub had a tall step-up. Stunning views from balcony. Two dining options. Dinner was just ok. Breakfast had just about everything to satisfy everyone. Walkable to other stores and along the waterfront. Super quiet at night.

Nicely situated on the sea front with rooms looking out onto the bathing pools below. The hotel has extra parking a few minutes walk away accessible with the room card. The staff were all friendly and helpful and breakfast was very nice with a good selection but seemed to be lacking a toaster. The room was comfortable and well maintained but smaller than we thought and was rather musty on arrival which cleared quickly once the windows were opened. We spent just a few nights here and I’m not sure if there was enough to do beyond that even though we had a car, very limited eating options in the resort but the restaurant at the hotel was very good. The resort lacked any nice little bars to stroll out to in the evening. Overall a nice short stay.
