A fairly new resort that will develop rapidly over the next decade. Currently the small island is relatively undeveloped and provided a beautiful, relaxing background for our recent holiday. This spa hotel is 5-star all inclusive and provides excellent, clean facilities in a spacious low-rise development with pleasant gardens. The 5-mile sandy beach and dunes are just yards away and...

The room was very clean and well maintained.The check in was slick and the reception staff were full of smiles from the word go.

From the moment of arrival, the staff made sure we were really looked after. Rooms were way above expectations and very clean, as was the rest of the grounds, didn't leave the resort once, and yes maybe that makes me a heathen, but boy it was good! I'd definitely go back... :o)

Dear Guest, Thank you for your previous contact. I inform that the best way of visiting our sea life is with scuba diving instead of snorkling. The weather sometimes can be windy but not every time. Looking forward to welcome you next week. Kind regards, João Martins Hotel Manager More

This is a lovely hotel. Great rooms, beautiful surroundings, beautiful beach with +/- 11km being the hotel +/- in the middle. The beach sand is therapeutic for some light diseases (check in the internet for more details). For those who love to walk on the beach, this is a must! You got plenty of sand/beach to take (check google maps).... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Pestana Porto Santo Beach Resort & Spa is located on the fantastic Porto Santo beach , a sandy beach 9 km long, and it is surrounded by a tropical garden of 30,000 m2 and two enormous outdoor pools of a natural style, making it one of the best hotels in Porto Santo. This hotel in Porto Santo operates under an "All Inclusive" regime, making it the ideal location for anyone wishing to spend holidays in Porto Santo without any concerns at all. So, if holidays to you mean time with friends and family, enjoying the sun, the sea and the therapeutic sands of Porto Santo, taking a dive into the pool, exercising in the gymnasium, playing a game of tennis on the multi-purpose court, or simply relaxing in the spa, then the Pestana Porto Santo is the hotel for you. The rooms of the Pestana Porto Santo are decorated in tones of blue and ocean green and include a private balcony. Although it is a hotel with "All Inclusive", it has 3 restaurants that offer a selection of Italian and Mediterranean cuisine and three enchanting beach bars, which includes the "Sunset Bar", which has fantastic views over the sea. The concept of this resort in Porto Santo underscores the philosophy of preserving the environment, taking into account the needs of sustainability of the surroundings where it is located. Various solar panels have been installed and the hotel has its own desalinisation plant, which has earned the hotel "The Green Key" certificate for its environmental management. The beach of Ribeiro Salgado, which is a concession of Pestana Porto Santo Beach Resort & Spa, was presented with the Blue Flag by the FEE - Foundation for Environment Education, due to the quality of the water, the information and environmental education, the environmental management, and the safety, services and support infrastructures. The main village, Vila Baleira, is a mere 5 minutes by car from this 5 star hotel, as is the 18-hole golf course, which offers you the unique opportunity of playing on a course designed by the Spanish champion Severiano Ballesteros; all this, with the sea as your horizon. ... more   less
