Estalagem Ponta do Sol is a four-pearl property dramatically perched on top of a cliff overlooking the southern coast of Madeira Island and across from the beach. The 54 rooms are minimally decorated with black and white and come with air-conditioning, mini-fridges, outdoor space, and picture windows with fantastic views. The outdoor infinity pool, stylish restaurant, lobby and pool bars, and panoramic whirlpools are all designed to give guests spectacular views. Other features include a library lounge and game room, bike rental, free shuttle bus, yoga and Qi Gong classes, diving instruction, and wellness spa with hydrotherapy, sauna, and steam room -- all great distractions from the non-activity in the village. Free breakfast and free Wi-Fi are added perks. If this spot is booked, it's worth checking out the comparable Saccharum Hotel Resort & Spa up the coast.

This three-and-a-half-pearl, 69-room hotel is located in the peaceful village of Ponta Del Sol on Madeira. It's an ideal base for exploring the island, with a picturesque beachfront location and a quiet atmosphere. Rooms are modern, with a classic twist, and some have private balconies with superb ocean views. However, they lack both Wi-Fi and electric kettles. The hotel has a sleek indoor pool that's great in the winter months, and a fitness center that's free for all guests. A restaurant serves traditional Madeiran cuisine and a generous free breakfast buffet, and all-inclusive rates are available (though food can get repetitive and drink options are limited). Travelers preferring more amenities might like Quinta de Casa Branca instead. It's a quiet boutique hotel that adds an outdoor pool and full-service spa.
