Very large house, pictures didn't do it justice. Great facilities for cooking and washing clothes. Great value as well.

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.
Really great hotel with superb staff, facilities, restaurant and location. It is a complete package, everything here is above Madeira's average standard. Nicely designed room, well equipped and very comfortable. You will get a good welcome drink from Madeira wine and on top of that also pleasant surprise is a bottle of sparkling wine in the room. Fantastic breakfast with plenty to choose from. There is a stunning rooftop pool area with sunbeds and bar. Very convenient location close to natural pools. Totally recommend.
The hotel is run by a family. It's nice and cosy, clean, bathroom of good size, and we had a balcony overlooking the sea. It is 2-3 minutes walking to the free (old) natural pools, and around 5 minutes walking to the new (paid) ones. You are right on the main street with restaurants and Christmas lights in Porto Moniz. Breakfast was good, although a bit inconvenient that they only served it from 9 to 10 - but we planned around that!
Casa das Escaleiras offers a truly exceptional 180° ocean view and is located in a privileged position overlooking the lovely town of Porto Moniz. It's a modern house totally rebuilt instead of an old dwelling, whose nude stone walls have been integrated cleverly into the cosy bedroom with wooden ceiling. The house is fully equipped (even a separate barbecue room and a swimming pool are awaiting you) and uses solar energy.
The atmosphere is very natural and wild, the hotel being not too big. View and the room was amazing as was the check-in hotel staff. The design and layout of the room is great and the mattress is super comfortable and well insulated. Overall the location and area was absolutely gorgeous! Fantastic value for money, and we would recommend this hotel to everyone who wants to visit Porto Moniz.
We loved the location of the hotel, with all the restaurants around plus in a close proximity of the ocean. You can open your window and listen to the powerful sounds of waves breaking on the coast.
Both the natural and paid pools are close by for you to enjoy.
If we were to come to Porto Moniz again, this hotel would be a first choice on our accommodation list.
Lovely new hotel in the cute town of Porto Moniz. Breakfast was amazing, and we loved having a studio so we could cook our own dinners. The hotel is brand new and very nice. They were still doing work downstairs on some rooms, so if you're there during the day it can be loud. We also loved that we got passes to the natural salt pools included in our stay.

We were at four different apartments/ hotels and this is the N1! Worth for the money.
The gentleman running the hotel was really kind and sweet, you can tell he really cares about the place. The location in the town was perfect, with great views of the mountain and ocean. the room was super clean and seemed newly renovated. For the value, the room really exceeded my expectations.
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
I cannot begin to put into words how serene this place is - it exceeded our expectations above and beyond
if I could rate the hotel and staff and town a 20/10 that would be even not come close to how perfect this place is!
The staffs are friendly and the location is amazing. The apartment is located super closed to beautiful natural swimming pool Porto Moniz (2 mins walk) and many many nice restaurants, groceries. Atmosphere is great!
Perfect location, quiet neighborhood, 5 min walk to the natural swimming pools, the house was spotless and the owners really nice and helpful. Would highly recommend staying at Porto Moniz Villa to everyone
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.
Clean and quiet rooms, tasty breakfast. Hotel is situated in very nice part of Porto Moniz. Many people can also appreciate 10% discount in hotel restaurant (we love local food) and souvenir shop.
Hotel is very clean and contemporary with large size rooms. It is ideally located in Porto Moniz right near the pools and also near grocery store and restaurants.
The attention to detail and comfort is outstanding. It’s like a luxury five star hotel inside a cozy, local cottage. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
