The superb hospitality from the front desk, breakfast and pool bar staff. The comfort and space of the room. The location smack dab in downtown Funchal. The impreccable service offered when booking restaurants or needing instructions on routes and calling cabs on my behalf. The extensive breakfast buffet which was fresh, delicious and straight forward.

The hotel was really great. It reopened the 21th of July 2025 and we were the first guest. The food was delicious. - Buffet for breakfast and a la carte menu for lunch and dinner. Really good coffee and nice cocktails also. It was fresh and top quality even ig i am very picky😅 The pools were gorgeous, sunbeds are also included. There was also a towel trunk to give you as many fresh towel as you want. The hotel is not crowed and childfriendly. The staff was so nice and helpful. After our stay i went to the Pestana for 2 days and the comparison was hard. I must say our stay with Navigator was much better than the Pestana next door and cheaper.

FAQs about hotels in Madeira Archipelago

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.

When we arrived we were told that we got a free upgrade which was incredible. Large room with a view to the ocean on the top floor with spacious sitting room and huge bathroom. There were all the essentials that you need including a toothbrush and shaver etc. It's an all inclusive resort and the food was delicious. Huge choice and different themed dinner every night. Including entertainment and activities around the pool. We stayed for 2 nights and it was a great experience. Very quiet and peaceful resort.

We really enjoyed our short stay at this beautiful resort. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The place is really nice and the beach just wonderful. We visited Porto Santo in December - it was not that warm and the sea very refreshing, but you can still swim in the sea. The advantage was an almost empty beach and a very calm atmosphere at the resort.

We were lucky to be there for a pool party they’d organize on the roof and it was amazing, a lot of activities (like barber corner, massage corner, tattoo corner…) and good music! Would 100% recommend to stay there!

Although there are many tourist in the city, it actually doesn't feel very touristy to me. People are very relaxed and friendly. I met a nice couple from England and a father/son duo from France on our whale/dolphin 3 hour tour. We had fun spotting dolphins and laughed when we were all getting splashed by the waves headed back to Funchal.

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.

The volcanic pools were closed due to high waves, We learnt at the reception that the best time to enjoy using them is May-October. Aquarium is fine but rather small. We've tried Rooftop Restaurant - great food but not the cheapest in the world. The Beerhouse is a great place in good weather. With rain you are forced to stay inside. Porto Moniz is small with the volcanic pools its main attraction.

Santana is a perfect location to explore the north coast.

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.

Calhetta itself is small and the main part of it centres around the harbour. As you might expect this means that all the major activities are boat-based such as whale and dolphin watching, sailing, fishing, excursions etc. but there are also lots of restaurants and bars overlooking the harbour where you can get a great meal - especially if you like fish - or just relax for the evening and watch the sunset.
