The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Room was great and the hotel picked up from the passports that it was my wife’s birthday and left some bubbles for us when we returned from a Levada walk. Turn left out of hotel and walk 20 mins and some great restaurants got to try Bistrot Des Agnes. Turn right and 25 mins walk into Funchal. We’re coming back and will definitely stay at Porto Mare again" [](https://expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Porto-Mare-Hotel.h1058018.Hotel-Information) ![The Cliff Bay](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/200000/190900/190859/f2330a78_y.jpg) ### The Cliff Bay 10/10 Excellent "The hotel was marvellous in every way and we will certainly be returning next year."
