I don’t think I have ever had such an immaculate room in all our numerous hotel stays. Superb is all I can say
Extremely comfortable super towels and hostess tray. There is even a fly screen on the balcony door
Highly recommended

It was a lovely stay and we were so lucky to have had the Seaview. We had the balcony door open all night and slept to the sound of the waves. The bed was huge and super comfortable.
Staff were really nice

We stay just one night, It was just an emergency stay for us, as we found out, that we were one night short of accommodation. There was an OK restaurant in the village.

I liked the great view to the ocean and parking space underground, but it’s very hard to open the garage sliding door. A washing machine with soap and a clothes hanger to dry your clothes on the balcony. Air conditioning.

Very large house, pictures didn't do it justice. Great facilities for cooking and washing clothes. Great value as well.
Lovely private outdoor area to relax. Not far from Porto moniz for the pools, and a nice bar down the road for the best poncha in Madeira and close to the levada walk

Loved the sea pools, with cafe for after swim drinks. and the peaceful evening walks. Easy to catch a bus further afield. Harder to get to levada walks than I expected, and I would avoid the ones that come back down steep hills to coast - rough and dangerous surfaces

This is not a sand beach vacation.
This is not a sand beach vacation. There are tidal pools to swim in if the weather cooperates. Be aware that the north side of the island is cooler and more likely to rain. We enjoyed our 2 night stay by the ocean but that was enough

Very good base to explore north-west side of the island
Very good base to explore north-west side of the island
Nice option if you want to cool down in the pool-there are actually 2 spots with ocean water, one more natural than the other, both can have better tourism services and catering options

A beautiful little town with the most beautiful swimming in Madeira in natural pools with sea water and sea fish. Protected from the waves and great for bathing and swimming, in a beautiful wild nature surrounded by rocks. Everything is close by car, the most beautiful levadas, the Fanal forest. Really spend more days.

We were driving around Madeira Island for 8 days & Porto Moniz was 1 of the most scenic area, beautiful rocky formations with the natural pools. We only stayed overnight, but wished we could have spent more time here, experience swimming the natural pools. Beautiful instamagramable picturisque views. We highly recommend Porto Moniz.

Porto Moniz is a tourist town in the far north of Madeira.
Porto Moniz is a tourist town in the far north of Madeira.
the ocean view is amazing.
The city has both natural and paid natural pools, where the only option is to swim.
if you are a fish lover, there are really many good restaurants in this city.
for us, the tastiest fish was Espada.
It is also a great place to visit the Fanal forest, the Telegrafico gondola and the Rabacal area.
for us, who are fans of bends, steep roads, beautiful nature and of course the sea, this part of the island was the most beautiful.
The breakfast is served on a terrace, next to the ocean. Superb experience. The staff is as friendly as we have ever met. The (almost) brand-new studio has great bed(s), a spacious bathroom, a handy kitchenette. Studios is not next to the ocean, that's Hotels, but it's only 100 m to go, sit and breathe the play of water and rocks. Porto Moniz is a thumbs up, Aqua Natura Studios is another thumbs up. Free parking, a jacuzzi on the roof. And extras you can only find in a Spa: wellness, massage, pedicure, ...
Everything was perfect! This is the best hotel we have ever been, every detail was considered. We were so impressed. There was s coffe machine in the room, welcome drink with champain, and ocean view! I would give 100 stars for this view!!!! The breakfast was delicious, the room was very crean, the staff is very attentive and kind. There isnt better hotel in Porto Moniz, maybe even on the island.
The hotel is new and nice. The staff is super nice and helpful. Nice breakfast at the Sea View Rooftop. Free entrance to the natural pools and the ability to use the facilities of the other 2 Aqua Natura hotels in Porto Moniz is very nice. Also the welcoming drink, the chocolate in the room and the small farewell gift were greatly appreciated.
Terrific place, spacious, well equipped and maintained. Outdoor area was fantastic, nicely landscaped and lit at night. Tastefully decorated, absolutely lovely and close to all amenities. The sea is a few minutes walk and the grocery store almost next door. Clearly the best part of our two weeks in Madeira.
Great value for the accommodation price. Super polite English speaking staff, willing to accommodate us in the middle of the EURO 2020 football match (Portugal vs France). Also, we had the opportunity to choose our room. Parking place right in front of the accommodation.
Very clean and cosy apartment with a nice terrace where you can just sit and watch the environment. It has a good location in Porto Moniz near the beach, shops and restaurants. We would like to stay here one more time. The communication with the host was also great.
The location is very close to ocean pools; our room was quite spacious. Good parking: they allow to park both in the underground garage and behind the hotel. Breakfast was OK. The people working there seemed extra nice and helpful.
The staff was very kind. The breakfast was included, great options, eggs, fresh orange juice.
Had a private balcony with sea view which was amazing. Overall a perfect hotel. Close to the pools and restaurants/shops.
We had a great two nights stay as part of our tour of Madeira Island. The hotel was great, very well situated in Porto Moniz. The parking and indoor pool were a real plus that made our stay easy and comfortable.
Hotel is very beautiful, we had a Ocean View room , I liked everything and thank you so much for the complimentary service like chocolates and champagne . You need to try the menu from restaurant so delicious 🤤
It's a spacious, clean and well equipped apartment. Location is excellent - very central to all Porto Moniz attractions, restaurants, hiking routes etc.
Great base to explore the north of Madeira.
Great location. Easy access to everything you would need in Porto Moniz. Nice garden patio. Super cute decor. TV with Netflix in case of those endless rainy days:)
