Pestana Carlton Madeira Ocean Resort Hotel

Due to a flight cancellation, I ended up staying an extra day on the island and naturally chose this hotel again. I booked a smaller family suite—though labeled as compact, it was actually quite spacious. Two queen beds plus a sofa bed easily accommodated four people with room to spare. That unexpected extra day turned into pure relaxation: lounging by the pool, enjoying the sea views, and savoring delicious meals. The hotel restaurant prices are comparable to local dining options across the street, where there’s also a supermarket nearby. I picked up wine and snacks to enjoy back in the room—such a nice touch. The main pool is filled with seawater, perfect for floating with your head just above the surface. There’s also a second pool down a few steps, and if you’re confident in the water, you can even swim out into the open sea. It’s such a unique and peaceful experience—highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind in a beautiful coastal setting.

Pestana Royal All Inclusive Ocean & Spa Resort

This resort truly exceeded my expectations! Located in Funchal, Portugal, it's super convenient to get to the city center via public transit. The property boasts three beautiful pools—perfect for relaxing or just enjoying the lively atmosphere. The food and drinks were outstanding: a wide variety of fresh options at the buffet, plus unlimited beverages—all included in the all-inclusive package. I was especially impressed by the daily activities and entertainment, particularly the energetic poolside vibe led by Gonçalo. He stood out as one of the most friendly and professional staff members I’ve ever encountered during a vacation—he made every moment feel special. The only minor downside was being assigned a room designed for guests with accessibility needs, which wasn’t what I requested. When I asked to switch rooms, they explained the hotel was fully booked. Still, that small hiccup didn’t ruin the experience at all. From the welcoming staff to the stunning ocean views and top-notch service, this resort delivers on every level. I’ll definitely be returning.
