4* Calheta Beach

Calheta Beach

Calheta, Madeira, Portugal

Star Rating: ****

Framed by cliffs and overlooking the wild Atlantic Ocean, this all-inclusive hotel is a superb spot for a Madeira getaway on the island’s dramatic southern coast.

The hotel’s sunny, modern rooms all open to balconies with dramatic ocean or mountain views – and besides gazing at those vistas, there’s plenty more to keep guests of all ages entertained at Calheta Beach. Little holidaymakers will love the supervised kids’ club with its range of daily activities and games, while adults can indulge in some much-needed me-time by the pool or in the spa, with its range of tempting treatments.

Prefer time on the sand? The hotel has direct access to Praia da Calheta for sun-filled days spent splashing in the surf. If the great outdoors beckons, then the 25 Fontes Falls – a remarkable group of waterfalls and unspoilt walking trails – is just a half-hour drive away.

The all-inclusive offer here is first-rate, with a selection of restaurants and bars to choose from throughout your stay. Sample home-style Madeiran dishes in the à la carte restaurant, a sumptuous spread in the buffet restaurant, or laid-back bites at the poolside bar. After dinner, enjoy a moonlit stroll on the beach and listen to the waves lap the shore as you plan your next day in paradise.
