ELEGANCE AND SEA ACCESS... classic, sophisticated, gourmet cuisine, direct sea access, views, quality service, spa, healthclub, free Wi-Fi...
The Atlantic Ocean stretches as far as the eye can see at the foot of The Cliff Bay... Perched on the top of a natural promontory, the hotel is surrounded by gardens - with innumerable secluded corners and centenary palm trees extending to the very edge of the cliff face. The panorama is completed by a magnificent view over the bay of Funchal to the east of the hotel.
This 5 star hotel, one of Porto Bay Hotels premium resorts, assures that every single little detail has been carefully conceived to present genuine peace, well-being and elegance. In the hotel's sea access area one can combine the Atlantic Ocean breeze with the spell-binding views when choosing the new pontoons and solariums.
The most influential restaurant guide in the world, the Michelin Guide, has awarded the Il Gallo d'Oro, The Cliff Bay's gourmet restaurant, run by Chef Benoît Sinthon, with a star. This is Madeira's first and only star.
Pamper yourself with a visit to the spa, which offers massages, body treatments and facials. If you're looking for recreational opportunities, you'll find an outdoor pool, an indoor pool and a hot tub. Additional amenities at this hotel include complimentary wireless Internet access, concierge services and babysitting (surcharge).
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.

Could not recommend this place highly enough. All the rooms are well appointed. The food is excellent wherever you eat. The staff are so very helpful. Its like a home fro home.
A lovely hotel with excellent staff and ambience on a beautiful island--this was our third visit and I suspect we will be back
Our vacation in Madeira and our stay at the hotel were among the most delightful experiences we’ve ever had. The hotel offered every amenity imaginable: from the welcome—which immediately made us feel like the most important guests—to the spacious room, room service, fast elevators, and excellent facilities (including both indoor and outdoor pools and the option to swim in the Atlantic Ocean). Finally, regarding the restaurants, the service, and the food quality—words cannot do them justice; it is highly recommended.
We had a very nice experience at this hotel. Fully booked but never had to search for a sunbed. Service is very friendly in the breakfast time. The breakfast was great. Our room was nice and clean and the turn down service great. Our diner at Il Gallo d'Oro was exquisit.
We had a wonderful 5 days at Cliff Bay hotel. Staff absolutely loved amazing. Food excellent and highly recommend it
