Location is 10/10 - right next to the natural pools. All natural pools in porto moniz are open to the public. Has also a Spa, and has a pool on the rooftop. Super clean, insane view from the balcony
Residencial Salgueiro offers wonderful sea views and a central location in Porto Moniz, on the northwestern tip of Madeira.

We loved the location of the hotel, with all the restaurants around plus in a close proximity of the ocean. You can open your window and listen to the powerful sounds of waves breaking on the coast.
Both the natural and paid pools are close by for you to enjoy.
If we were to come to Porto Moniz again, this hotel would be a first choice on our accommodation list.

House has all the comforts of a family vacation home, spacious well equipped kitchen, private lounging bbq patio, family room… parking driveway is a little tight but still very nice to be off street. Beautiful views, quiet locale but also close to nearby attractions, grocery and restaurant. The drive to and from property is hilly and sharp turn at places, can take getting used to but not unusual for Madeira. Silvia the host is very responsive, kind and welcoming, checkin and out was simple and easy. Wonderful stay! Highly recommend.

Staff was super friendly and helpful. Welcoming drinks at the arrival, sparkling wine at the room. Spacious room with huge bed and even bigger pillows. Free access to the natural pools. As pools were too cold for us, we enjoyed the jacuzzi zone on the hotel roof. Breakfast was nice, with many fruit options and a nice view. Good value for money.

Loved the sea pools, with cafe for after swim drinks. and the peaceful evening walks. Easy to catch a bus further afield. Harder to get to levada walks than I expected, and I would avoid the ones that come back down steep hills to coast - rough and dangerous surfaces

This is not a sand beach vacation.
This is not a sand beach vacation. There are tidal pools to swim in if the weather cooperates. Be aware that the north side of the island is cooler and more likely to rain. We enjoyed our 2 night stay by the ocean but that was enough

Very good base to explore north-west side of the island
Very good base to explore north-west side of the island
Nice option if you want to cool down in the pool-there are actually 2 spots with ocean water, one more natural than the other, both can have better tourism services and catering options

A beautiful little town with the most beautiful swimming in Madeira in natural pools with sea water and sea fish. Protected from the waves and great for bathing and swimming, in a beautiful wild nature surrounded by rocks. Everything is close by car, the most beautiful levadas, the Fanal forest. Really spend more days.

We were driving around Madeira Island for 8 days & Porto Moniz was 1 of the most scenic area, beautiful rocky formations with the natural pools. We only stayed overnight, but wished we could have spent more time here, experience swimming the natural pools. Beautiful instamagramable picturisque views. We highly recommend Porto Moniz.

Porto Moniz is a tourist town in the far north of Madeira.
Porto Moniz is a tourist town in the far north of Madeira.
the ocean view is amazing.
The city has both natural and paid natural pools, where the only option is to swim.
if you are a fish lover, there are really many good restaurants in this city.
for us, the tastiest fish was Espada.
It is also a great place to visit the Fanal forest, the Telegrafico gondola and the Rabacal area.
for us, who are fans of bends, steep roads, beautiful nature and of course the sea, this part of the island was the most beautiful.

The tenants are very comprehensive. I was stuck at
Madeira for 2 days during a correspondence and had almost no
money and no one there. They took me from the airport
and made my stay a real dream : they took me to beautiful
places, gave me food and everything almost for free.
The place is not like a fancy hotel but if you are looking to
experience REAL Madeira, this place is perfect for you.
That know all the places that tourists don’t know and they are kind
That literally saved me from the nightmare I was living.
The breakfast is served on a terrace, next to the ocean. Superb experience. The staff is as friendly as we have ever met. The (almost) brand-new studio has great bed(s), a spacious bathroom, a handy kitchenette. Studios is not next to the ocean, that's Hotels, but it's only 100 m to go, sit and breathe the play of water and rocks. Porto Moniz is a thumbs up, Aqua Natura Studios is another thumbs up. Free parking, a jacuzzi on the roof. And extras you can only find in a Spa: wellness, massage, pedicure, ...
The hotel is run by a family. It's nice and cosy, clean, bathroom of good size, and we had a balcony overlooking the sea. It is 2-3 minutes walking to the free (old) natural pools, and around 5 minutes walking to the new (paid) ones. You are right on the main street with restaurants and Christmas lights in Porto Moniz. Breakfast was good, although a bit inconvenient that they only served it from 9 to 10 - but we planned around that!
Casa das Escaleiras offers a truly exceptional 180° ocean view and is located in a privileged position overlooking the lovely town of Porto Moniz. It's a modern house totally rebuilt instead of an old dwelling, whose nude stone walls have been integrated cleverly into the cosy bedroom with wooden ceiling. The house is fully equipped (even a separate barbecue room and a swimming pool are awaiting you) and uses solar energy.
Awesome location right in front of the aquarium and natural pools in Porto Moniz. The views from the rooftop are spectacular, and the infinity pool and cabanas are the best place to enjoy your stay. But the best part is the service — from the wonderful reception, the little gifts they provided guests, the waitstaff at their restaurant… Worth the drive out from Funchal!

A really good choice when in Porto Moniz! There is no doubt - one stays there in comfort. And the ocean view is great, especially during sea storms! Most of the personnel is very professional in all aspects though some few people from the hotel crew would need to improve their English and get some additional customer care training
Everything! We booked the hotel not knowing it was literally next to the volcanic pools we wanted to swim in. The hotel required a few reservations for the jacuzzi/sauna and breakfast but beside that, it was amazing. The view from the room was stunning!!! My wife and I loved our stay here at Aqua Natural Madeira!
An exceptional hotel with a cool ocean view to meet the sunrise. All the staff was amazing: friendly, easygoing and helpful. And welcoming compliments relax you and set up for holidays from the very check-in. The room was nice and clean. Furthermore, the hotel has a very good restaurant and not bad SPA.
it was beautiful and clean, not just actual cleanliness but also design. loved the separate kitchen. I was able to cook there after shopping at supermercado in Porto Moniz.
I really liked the place and look forward to going there again ( my comments below are why it is not a perfect 10)
loved the WiFi
Very large house, pictures didn't do it justice. Great facilities for cooking and washing clothes. Great value as well.
Lovely private outdoor area to relax. Not far from Porto moniz for the pools, and a nice bar down the road for the best poncha in Madeira and close to the levada walk
The breakfast was great, not only European but also local specialties. The hotel is right in the center and free parking is provided. Very nice and helpful staff. Great locations, beautiful nature and an absolutely amazing natural swimming pool a few minutes from the hotel.
Very clean and cosy apartment with a nice terrace where you can just sit and watch the environment. It has a good location in Porto Moniz near the beach, shops and restaurants. We would like to stay here one more time. The communication with the host was also great.
The location is very close to ocean pools; our room was quite spacious. Good parking: they allow to park both in the underground garage and behind the hotel. Breakfast was OK. The people working there seemed extra nice and helpful.
It is a good location to explore the north of Madeira. Some shops and restaurants are available close to the apartments. We really liked the garden and the shared living room. Nice to have breakfast. Good value for money.
The staff was very kind. The breakfast was included, great options, eggs, fresh orange juice.
Had a private balcony with sea view which was amazing. Overall a perfect hotel. Close to the pools and restaurants/shops.
Great location. It was more than we expected.
Everything close by - swimming pools and market.
It was very good choice. We wish owner to put more pictures from balcony- view of the ocean is amazing!
