Top Madeira Whale Museum Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Ziva Madeira

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay. The room was lovely and the location great. Lots of restaurants to choose from - but can be challenging to book a restaurant . If only there for a week you may not be able to visit each restaurant. We managed it through a lot of careful planning and accepting very late reservations."

Albatroz Beach & Yacht Club

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was exceptional. Each day they greeted us with warm smiles. They enjoyed working at the hotel and interacting with guests. The property was extremely clean and well maintained. The rooms are a bit outdated though. The breakfast is high quality."

Hotel Amparo

8/10 Good

"Nice, local, quite authetintic- what we want to see when travel 😁 Lovely. A bit old but feelings are very good."

Residencial Família

8/10 Good

"Very nice family hotel. Breakfast was great thank you. Unfortunately we didn't arrive until 3.15am and the hotel was closed however we phoned an emergency no. and a member of staff gave us a key code to access the key. Few minutes walk to the promenade very well maintained. Currently building work at hotel. Thanks for our breakfast and coffee this morning. Regards Sean & Melanie"

Villas Madalena

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was very good — clean and well equipped. Bed linen, towels, kitchenware and appliances were all provided, and the parking was great too. The view was amazing, and of course the special Madeira touch — watching the planes take off and land, visible even from the room. Overall, everything was perfect. Highly recommended!"

Machico Beach, a Home in Madeira

10/10 Excellent

"I liked the location, the sea view, well equiped kitchen, modern furnishings, the very handy laundry area, useful car parking, communication with A Home in Madeira and the lovely friendly welcome from Rosario. Supplying beach towels is a great idea. Two very small points, neither of which detracted from the holiday but might bother other people - there was a smell of foul water in the ensuite bathroom which disappeared after I flushed all the appliances with water. And the double bed is a bit creaky."
