"Recommend Porto Moniz, the beach at Calhetta (one of very few shady beaches), Skyview. The hotel is on the sea front and near to a small beach which is largely laid to pebbles and volcanic sand."

"The views are by far far the best part about this place - uninterrupted ocean views from both the bedroom and living room / balcony. On top of that you get the sound of the waves there constantly so sleep is great."

"beautiful hotel Definitely recommend sea view rooms, sunrise is lovely Fairly quiet when we stayed thanks to covid Very clean and safe Staff were exceptional, especially the pool bar man and the sundeck bar!!"

"It's so close to the beach that you can hear the waves from the room which is heaven and if that's not your thing the doors are soundproof. Best view I've had in a hotel (just the ocean)."

"We come often and always have the friendliest of welcomes, all the staff extremely helpful, location perfect - right on the ocean so it feels as if it’s just you and the sea and yet a short walk into Funchal."

"We wouldn't stay anywhere else if we return to Madeira in the future, The Pestana Promenade is the best, thank you to all the staff for making our stay wonderful, hope to see you again sometime x"

"My room delightful with panoramic ocean views and fab balcony to relax on after a busy day of sightseeing."

"To get 4 beds relatively close to the seafront with umbrellas, we had to arrive by 6:30am at the latest, otherwise you’d have 2 sets of 2 beds at opposite ends of the cliffs and could spend the day without umbrellas."

"Tile flooring is good for wet feet coming back from the beach. But for me the biggest plus was the location - from the beach club/pool area (just across the street) there is access to the sea in a protected spot."

"The hotel is about 8 min. walk down hill..."
