Calheta Beach – All-inclusive | Savoy Signature

Really great service, terrific staff. Comfortable room, very clean. Food a bit repetitive and pretty bland. Plenty of it but a bit limited in choices if you don’t want pork or salad every day!

Good 9 day stay, Susana at reception very helpful & knowledgable. Suite very spacious & clean. Food was pretty average although staff very efficient, Andre was very attentive. Pool was very cold..!! Overall would stay again if visiting the area.

Most of the staff surly and unfriendly. Food very disappointing poor choice and lukewarm. Staff in restaurant unfriendly . Paid extra 40 euros for upgrade and was only shown the wine list the day before we were leaving. Unable to book the a la carte restaurant . Meals in a la carte restaurant limited and of different quality to other diners. Bed linen not changed at all during stay.

Everything was just fine

Hotel was fine, food and drink selection ample, staff were lovely. The area currently leaves something to be desired, most coastal areas of Madeira that we saw were mountainous, and Calheta had suffered from rockslides so severe that the the local restaurant had it's roof caved in and all of the few local shops / bars in the harbour were shut and cordoned off. On top of this there was repair work taking place on the rock face to prevent further falling, so drilling was audible all day. A shame, it didn't spoil our short break but it was disappointing that you had no option other than the hotel's facilities and that there was the work noise during the day.

I enjoyed the peace and quiet. Staff were there but not constantly around you. It’s a great relaxing place and will be returning later this year

Very nice hotel, staff friendly and helpful, room nice (203) , food and drinks good although the hot food was warm but appreciate that it is hard to keep food hot when its buffet style, overall would recommend, pleasent for a short break

Liked: friendly and helpful staff, all the public areas were clean attractively decorated and comfortable, beautiful view from balcony, pleasant dining areas, well laid-out pool and outside seating area. Disliked: Very little storage space in the bedroom; outside area had one small covered-in space a long way back from the swimming pool for non-smokers but smokers were everywhere else; one morning we moved seats four times because every time we settled down, someone lit up next to us. Advertised as 'all-inclusive' but access to the restaurant (as opposed to buffet) is limited and using the room's safe is extra; we took the 'premium guest' upgrade but it wasn't worth the cost. The hotel is excellent for those who want to spend their time using the facilities there: Calheta Beach itself is quite isolated - the hotel shuttle to Funchal is 20 Euros and taxis are a lot more, but there are several good island tours which pick up from the hotel for those who want to see more of Madeira. Overall, even taking the 'dislikes' into account, I enjoyed staying at the hotel and would recommend it.

Liked: friendly and helpful staff, everything about the hotel

Such a lovely hotel in a great location. Well laid out and managed grounds. Food was high quality and varied. Already planning my return.
