I cannot commend this hotel enough. We spent a week there on a bed and breakfast arrangement. We found the rooms to be palatial, the room service was excellent and all of the staff, from reception to the cleaners most willing and polite. There was always plenty of sunbeds with foam mattresses, and a surfeit of towels which were supplied... more

Have just returned from yet another holiday at this hotel and cannot fault anything, OK the Thomson Holidays rep was hopeless ("I don't know anthing about local buses I'm only here to sell excursions"!) but that isn't the Cliff Bay's fault. We'll be back in 2010. more

My husband and I have just returned from our second visit to this fantastic hotel, it is the first time we have ever been tempted to return to a hotel and we were not dissapointed. We would recommend The Cliff Bay to anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable holiday. The staff, a real dedicated team, could not be anymore polite,... more

The Cliff Bay is a dream: the location on the sea is perfect, the pools offer great views, the gardens are peacefull. It is really a pleasure to stay at this hotel. The service is good and people know very well their job. Very good service but not stiff. I went to Madeira to play golf with some friends. And... more

Hotel was top class, rooms large and airy and A/C worked well.Huge balcony with side sea view.Huge bed(only tiny complaint was that it was a bit hard, with a funny spring that dug in where it shouldn't).Two lovely pools to choose from with plenty of sun beds and towels.Breakfast was amazing, the choice was out of this world and everything... more

It was our first visit to Madeira and The Cliff Bay Hotel, both of which really exceeded our expectations. The weather was in the mid 70's for the whole week, perfect for strolling around Funchal, stopping for food / drinks in one of the many bars and restaurants. Everywhere was clean, tidy and well maintained and as you'd expect, the... more

We went to Madeira for our one year late honeymoon and wanted to make this holiday very special and memorable, I have to say Cliff Bay did not disappoint us! It's beautiful hotel situated on cliffs and overlooking ocean, very classy and luxurious. As soon as we arrived we had very warm welcome, staff was extremely helpful, our garden view... more

We have just enjoyed our third visit to Cliff Bay. We now realise just how many guests are regular return visitors, many of whom come every year, this says a lot about the sustained quality and class of the hotel. Return visitors get 10% off all bills at the hotel plus a special free early evening cocktail reception in addition... more
