Lovely hotel in quiet location by the ocean

Not as close to Calheta as thought when I booked but it was only a 10 minute drive & worth it for the 2 small sandy beaches, bars, restaurants & shops. There is not very much in vicinity of hotel but there is bar & restaurant within easy walking distance if don't want to stay in hotel every evening. Room was clean & spacious. No tea/coffee making facilities but when asked for a kettle & cups they were happy to provide. Buffet breakfast was ample and varied with choice of indoor or outdoor seating. Swimming pool was large with pool bar for drinks & food. Indoor pool also if weather not so good. We enjoyed our stay in this quiet location.

Great spa facilities, room spec and location

Friendly staff, great deal with buffet breakfast included (though you won't get away with nabbing any lunch from this), good spa facilities with jacuzzi, steam room, indoor and outdoor pools, and one of the best beds we have encountered in hotels. The nearby Maktub can make the area very busy on Sundays but otherwise there's sufficient free parking. WiFi is in the lobby, but the hotel is getting upgraded with WiFi throughout floor-by-floor - if you need WiFi in your room, check which floor you are allocated to.

Very last minute winter sunshine break

Welcoming, helpful staff. Beautiful views from every room. Spotless rooms with kitchenettes. Breakfast was lovely every morning in the restaurant. Although I travelled alone I could see that the hotel is extremely child and family friendly.

Hidden gem

We chose this hotel as it was in the village of Paul do Mar where our local friends were getting married The location is perfect for a true experience of a coastal town in Madeira with amazing views walks swimming and snorkeling The hotel was perfectly located just above the sea wall so you can sleep and wake to the sound of waves The service in the hotel was fantastic and all facilities great Maybe a softer pillow would have been nice! We mostly swam in the sea but the pools were very week kept As a family we enjoyed the bars and restaurant nearby too Paul do mar is a hidden gem

PAUL DO MAR

Air conditioner did not work, mattress very hard. Telephone did not work. No amenities in the shower. It is on the end of Ribeira das Galinhas so you have to walk back and forth to the Port. There are no restaurants around or a small supermarket were to buy water or something to eat. No Internet in the rooms.

Great Hotel at a Stunning Location

This was our second stay at the Paul do Mar Aparthotel. The staff and very friendly and all spoke very good English. All rooms are oceanview and only 100 feet from the shore. From your balcony, you can watch the sun go down over the ocean every night. Breakfast was good with hot and cold food and fresh fruit every day. Dinner was excellent. We swam in the outdoor pool (unheated) and the indoor (heated pool). A rental car is recommended to get from the hotel to the many hiking routes and levada walks at the west end of Madeira which we consider to be the most beautiful part of the island.

Nice hotel with no passing traffic

Superb choice of hotel attentive staff, excellent breakfast but the most pleasing was the peace and quite. A wonderful spot to either relax by the pool or tour the island. A car is really a necessity. The hotel is an Apart hotel and the rooms are very spacious but the kitchen arrangement only allows you to do minimum cooking, which we found suitable there is a large fridge and a micro wave which is ideal for reheating prepared meals

Spacious rooms

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Great room and facilities. Breakfast (the only meal we had there) was excellent. Location was close the the sea. Slightly disappointed about the surrounding neighbourhood as it is obviously a place where teens gather. A bit noisy at night. (We were there during the run up to Easter) Would be a good place to go with children. Fantastic location to watch the sun setting at night, and great for finding the sun.
