If you’re looking for a luxurious stay by the beach in Madeira, I can’t recommend Dreams Madeira Resort Spa & Marina enough. Located in Caniçal, this 5-star resort combines breathtaking ocean views with top-notch amenities.
The outdoor swimming pool and private beach area are perfect for unwinding, while the lush gardens and terrace add a touch of serenity to the experience. The hotel offers fantastic service, including a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, and even room service if you feel like relaxing in your room.
Speaking of the rooms—they’re spacious, air-conditioned, and well-appointed with everything you’d expect from a luxury resort. A comfortable desk, minibar, flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom make it feel like home, and I appreciated the thoughtful touches like a kettle and a wardrobe large enough to keep everything organized.
Breakfast was a highlight for me, with options ranging from buffet to continental and vegetarian. And the dining experience doesn’t stop there—the on-site restaurant serves a mix of French, Mediterranean, and Portuguese cuisine. They even cater to dietary preferences with vegetarian, dairy-free, and vegan options.
For families, there’s a children’s playground, making it a great choice if you’re traveling with kids. And for beach lovers, Prainha Beach is just 1.5 km away.
The location is also quite convenient, with Madeira’s international airport just a 13 km drive.
Dreams Madeira Resort truly delivers on its promise of luxury and relaxation—whether you’re there for a short getaway or a longer stay, you’ll feel pampered and refreshed.
