Pestana Churchill Bay

This is our first visit to Madeira and it went beyond our expectations. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful from the start, from the receptionist to the hotel staff, caterers, waiters, waitresses, cleaners alike. The location of the hotel was just what we wanted, not too busy and a good range of restaurants within walking distance. The hotel restaurant offers excellent food but a good idea to book a reservation. Our room was located on the ground floor with a balcony overlooking Camara de Lobos bay. It had a large bed, excellent shower, room enough for clothes, (if you have long dresses they won't hang up as the wardrobe has two shelves lower down, I hung mine in the bathroom off the shower) a fridge which was very useful to keep the water cold, a TV, a very good hair dryer which I was relieved about as this is the first holiday I haven't taken my own and a small table and two chairs on the balcony. Included in the service was a bottle of water each day and tea and coffee facilities. Our room was cleaned daily and fresh towel were supplied when needed. Everything we would have wanted. We hope to visit again in the New Year, would definitely recommend.

The location at the little harbour was very beautiful. Its less busy as Funchal but with all facilities like restaurants, shops etc. Also the weather is better because situated af the more sunny side of the isle. The staff was very friendly and helpful in a personal and kind way.

Hands down the best holiday we’ve had in years! If you’re going to Madeira, stay here and you’ll not regret a minute of it. The hotel was beautifully decorated, immaculate and clean, very comfortable and views were stunning. The staff were the friendliest people we’ve met on the whole island and they tended to our needs with patience, kindness and understanding. We were always welcomed with a smile, and they make you feel so looked after with their impeccable, professional and friendly service, whilst also respecting privacy. We’ll be so sad to leave! The location was fantastic, right next to the sea, with a bustling atmosphere of the local fishing village. Thank you, Pestana Churchill Bay. We’ll be back!

Beautiful room and very elegant public rooms in this very charming pousada in a small and picturesque fishing village. Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent food, lunch was very good and breakfast was excellent. The hotel is in a wonderful setting in the very centre of the village of Camara de Lobos. Views are amazing!

Nice room, fridge, t and c, water and box of biscuits Excellent choice for breakfast with great view over the harbour. Managed to build the hotel with a decent roof space for restaurant, pool and sunbathing
