Location

Beach holiday on Madeira! This popular hotel is located next to a small marina, directly on the golden sandy beach (man-made) of Calheta. This is a rarity on Madeira, as few hotels on this beautiful island can offer direct access to a sandy beach. The town center is approximately a 10-minute walk (1 km) away. Funchal is approx. 35 km away and Madeira's international airport is approximately a 40-minute drive (approx. 50 km) from the hotel. We recommend booking a rental car (EDV-code: FNC012A) to easily explore the island.
