I am currently staying at the Cliff Bay Hotel and have been thoroughly impressed with the overall experience. The service is exceptional, with staff consistently demonstrating a high standard of professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality. The hotel's elevated position offers breathtaking views, enhancing the serene and luxurious atmosphere. Furthermore, the culinary offerings are outstanding each meal has been expertly prepared and elegantly presented. The Cliff Bay Hotel truly excels in providing a refined and memorable stay. Lastly, for those wondering: yes, you can swim in the sea. The hotel provides two lifeguards on duty at all times by the water, ensuring guest safety. The sea is remarkably clear so pristine, it almost feels drinkable. A visit to the Cliff Bay Hotel comes highly recommended and should be made without hesitation. The best!

Exceptional Stay at Cliff Bay! Cliff Bay is pure paradise. Perched above the ocean with stunning views, it offers the perfect mix of luxury, tranquility, and warm Madeiran hospitality. Our room was elegant and spotless, with a view that took our breath away. The staff were outstanding—attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. Breakfast on the terrace overlooking the sea was a daily highlight. From the beautiful gardens to the infinity pool and Michelin-star dining, every detail was perfect. A truly unforgettable experience. We’ll be back!

An absolutely amazing hotel. Can't fault it at all. So many places to eat quality food, live entertainment while you eat and drink. We've just eaten at the Sushi By The Sea restaurant and the food, drink, staff and entertainment were first class. We were fortunate enough to have our room upgraded, OMG, the Executive Suite is incredible, thank you Cliff Bay Hotel team 😁

A lovely hotel. I recommend it if you would like a luxury holiday. Staff are very friendly, a great buffet breakfast, delicious fresh fruit, freshly squeezed orange juice, lovely bread & local cakes & pastries, also a choice of hot food. There is a lovely swimming pool, a gym , a spa, 3 restaurants, a bar with entertainment & there is also a cinema. If you fancy a 5 star holiday in Madeira this is the place to go. One thing I was not happy about was my husband booked a massage for his back. He went for the massage and the therapist started to to massage his bottom first , he explained he only wanted his shoulders& top of his back done. She continued to massage his bottom. He asked her to stop & she didn't. This is not acceptable. If a client does not want something done , respect their wishes. I had a manicure & it didn't last a week. This was also disappointing. Our experience at the Spa was disappointing. On the plus l had a leg massage & that was good .

Probably one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. The service, location, food, and amenities were all amazing. We paid about $400 USD per night for a Funchal Bay view which felt like a bargain, considering we booked the included breakfast rate. The hotel is nicely situated off the main road, but very walkable to an abundance of restaurants nearby. They have so much live music as well! Happy hour is from 5-6 PM which includes 50% discount drinks. During our stay, they had live guitarists, pianists, violinists, and more. At night, they have more live music in the bar area, typically from 830 PM to 11 PM. Drinks are served with complimentary light snacks. The breakfast is extremely expansive and is held in the Rose Garden restaurant. I highly recommend the fruit as much (if not all) of it is grown on the island. I tasted some of the freshest kiwi and grapefruit in my life here. The Rose Garden also hosts great views of the ocean which we got 5 breakfasts in a row! We typically arrived for breakfast between 8 and 830 AM. Finally, the amenities were fantastic. They have multiple saunas, steam rooms, jacuzzis, indoor/outdoor pool AND. salt water pool, tons of outdoor sun chairs, a huge spa area, and gym. I would definitely stay here again if back in Madeira.
