Studios by Aqua Natura Hotels

Excellent place to stay in Porto Moniz. Location is super convenient, close to the natural pools and with enough parking spaces (either underground at the hotel, or the parking next door). Super helpful and friendly staff, willing to give recommendations for your days in Madeira. Breakfast, even though in a different building close by, was also delicious with multiple savory and sweet options. The room was spacious, with enough equipment to make your own food in the studio if you want. The bed and the pillows we also comfortable and the small terrace of the room gives enough space to relax after your excursions.

This hotel absolutely blew us out of the water. On arrival, the staff member on desk was exceptional! He took time to explain the island to us, showing us where hotspots were located, as well as local restaurants and the sister hotels. The hotel also gives all guests free entry tickets to the saltpools daily, this was a welcome (and unexpected!) added bonus, as it meant we were able to skip the large ques. He then proceeded to offer us a welcome cocktail, which was a local Madeiran wine with fruits and Lemonade. When we arrived in the room, there was a personal welcome message waiting, a bottle of Madeiran sparkling wine and chocolates on the pillows. We made use of the hot tub on the roof and had the place to ourselves (we were able to use the full suite of facilities at the other hotel but as we were only there for 1 evening we didn't bother). The room was well presented, comfortable and extremely clean. When leaving, the hotel provided us with a homemade pot of marmalade, postcard and pen. We were impressed with the hotel from the get go, but the additional personal touches just made it feel so above and beyond!

We really enjoyed our stay at Studios by Aqua Natura Hotels. The experience felt very welcoming – we received some lovely extras like a bottle of bubbles and free tickets to the natural pools, which was a really nice surprise. Free parking was also a big plus and made things very convenient. The studio was clean and comfortable, and overall the stay offered great value.

Very well located in the center of Porto Moniz, the room of the studio was very big and the kitchen area has the minimum equipment (a pan, two saucepans, some sharp knifes, a cutting board etc..). On the third floor (rooftop), you have a jacuzzi and some sunbeds to chill / relax. We had an issue with the room (two single beds instead of one double bed) and the personnel tried their best to find a solution. Free parking and free entrance to the natural pools as well and access to all the amenities of the two other hotels located in the city (spas, swimming pools etc…)

Our Studio was very well equipped, with kitchen kit, 2 plate hob top and a fridge. Shower was marvellous. The balcony was nice and big, but with no nice view due to the buildings in front. Breakfast was very good, with lovely views of the sea and pools from the balcony and outdoor tables.
