Calheta Beach - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"Staff were very friendly! Entertainment and food were fabulous. Pool spotless, great to see the manager being there on the complex walking around observing. The bar staff and waiters/waitresses were charming and nothing too much for them. With the facilities, we were disappointed on first day to have no aircon in our room, heard others had same problem with this. We were moved to different room same day but it meant we lost time unpacking and packing again. Overall the stay was so lovely and we would recommend this hotel. We certainly will be returning."

Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira

Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira

10/10 Excellent
"Reid’s is a beautiful property with multiple pools and diving access to the ocean. Our stay involved changing rooms ( not the hotels fault), and not all rooms are the same. The first room had a walk in shower but the second room had a very slippery tub shower. There was construction going on during our stay that made for noisy afternoons. The food was really good and there are multiple restaurants, however, I would reserve a table in advance of your stay to guarantee your spot at dinner. The service was exceptional."

8/10 Good
"Great location and architecture. Lots of room options. Generous 'all-inclusive' offering. Music far too loud at main pool. Discarded Food outside next door's room was left for >12 hours before collection despite prompt. Food options are great...IF YOU CAN GET BOOKED IN. We had several messages from Hyatt prior to arriving, asking if we wanted to select a specific room...It would have been far more useful if they had asked us what restaurant we wanted to book for our first 2 nights...there was no availability when we checked in."

"The Evening buffet didn’t meet our expectations. It had overdone meat in several different options. The food wasn’t hot and the salads were almost gone. We both didn’t think it was worth the money. The breakfast buffet was much higher standard. Couldn’t fault anything else. Design, staff, cleanliness and facilities were exceptional"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Ribeiro Frio?
The best area to stay in Ribeiro Frio is the immediate vicinity of the Ribeiro Frio Natural Park, particularly along the regional road ER103.This area is essentially the heart of Ribeiro Frio, centred around the popular trout farm and restaurant. You'll find a small cluster of accommodation options here, often guesthouses or traditional Madeiran homes. It's the starting point for several well-known levada walks, including the popular path to Balcões viewpoint, which offers stunning mountain vistas. The general layout is very rural, with winding roads and lush vegetation.Couples looking for a peaceful escape into nature will find this area ideal. The opportunity for long, scenic walks directly from your doorstep, combined with the tranquility of the mountains, makes it superb for a relaxing getaway. The local restaurant offers traditional Madeiran cuisine, adding to the authentic experience.For solo travellers seeking an active holiday focused on hiking, staying near the Natural Park is also a great choice. The direct access to the levadas means you can start your adventures early, and the limited amenities encourage a focus on the natural surroundings.
