Enotel Sunset Bay

Cleanliness and room service is the biggest advantage. Beautiful view from the window, comfortable bed, spacious rooms. The food is delicious, everyone will find something for themselves. Delicious bread, fresh fruit, hot and cold dishes. Very clean canteen. The location is another plus. Great as a place from which you can get everywhere on the island by car. The hotel is located on the street, but it is not passable, so it is not noisy. In the immediate vicinity of the guarded beach and restaurant. Beautiful sunsets.

The hotel exceeded the expectations, the staff was very friendly and helpful, also flexible with various asks. They allowed us to early checkin at 10am instead of at 2pm. Is good for travelling with kids. Liked the pool and sauna and terrace. The room had a lot of space. Dinner buffet may seem expensive, but is a good option to go to with toddlers, is free for small kids.

This hotel is in the best location of Ponta Sol. It's right in front of the beach and around the corner from 3 or 4 really good restaurants/bars. Our room was spacious and had a window out to the beach, which we opened and sat to enjoy the view. Most importantly, the two ladies at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellent with hot and cold options, and they even have a chef that will cook you something to order. In terms of attractions we did the tranquil and scenic walk to Madalena do mar (45min) and the two Lavadas (moinho and nova).

Very friendly and helpful staff. This is a perfect location for visiting other parts of the island. Rooms were very spacious, sun terrace on the roof, gym, sauna and swimming pool free of charge. Free underground parking, although spaces were limited. The hotel is located on the sunny coast (rain is rare), there are few restaurants and cafes around. Nice and quiet place.

Enotel, if you have not heard of them, is a well-established chain of hotels and resorts in Madeira. Enotel Sunset Bay is located right on the seafront at Ponta do Sol with restaurants and bars all within walking distance. The hotel consists of several 'buildings' or rather facades, so I was surprised when I walked in to see a huge lobby. There is also a heated indoor pool next to the reception. For an overnight stay on the 10. January, I was given a room with a great balcony overlooking the sea. The room has 2 huge beds, the decor, bathroom, cleanliness, and size all exceeded my expectations. The breakfast is excellent, and we are spoilt for choice. I especially recommend the receptionists who were very friendly and helpful with tips. After a 30km walk from Funchal - it made such a difference to have such friendly personnel and a nice hotel room!
