Travelers will be forgiven if they feel as though they are on a tropical Asian island, rather than in Portugal, when they visit Madeira, thanks to the isle’s temperate climate. Its volcanic history did not only help shape a wild yet gorgeous terrain such as what you can see in Ponta de São Lourenço, it also led to the formation of attractions like the black lava bathing pools. Thrill seekers can also try climbing Pico Ruivo, the tallest peak in Madeira. Alternatively, they can proceed to Cabo Girão, which features a skywalk that rewards travelers with gorgeous ocean and cliffs views, or explore the trails of Laurisilva Forest, where they can spot Levadas, narrow stone irrigation channels unique to Madeira. Travelers should also not miss out on trying out local food and drink. The wines are renowned internationally, while the traditional cuisine is also worth trying. Below are adults-only hotels in Madeira for you to choose from.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and access to adults-only amenities and services. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on December 20, 2024.
