OUR SAY
A small, oceanfront retreat where swimming is the daily ritual. Ideal for travellers who want a personal hotel with real sea access and a calm, classic mood.
We love this property’s small-scale, oceanfront confidence: it feels like a private club on the water, with enough facilities to make staying in feel like the best plan.

Tell Me More About This Hotel
Albatroz Beach & Yacht Club is a 5-star hotel located in Madeira, Portugal
Albatroz is the rare Madeira hotel that feels both intimate and properly coastal. Set in subtropical gardens with direct access to the sea, it has that small-hotel ease where staff learn your preferences quickly and days fall into a natural rhythm: swim in the seawater pools, read in the sun, then drift to lunch without checking the time. The mood is quietly classic rather than flashy, and the setting does a lot of the heavy lifting, 400 metres of oceanfront, salt air, and that bright southern light. It’s a stay for people who want the sea close and the atmosphere personal.

Dreamer's
Verdict
It's all about the ocean-level swimming pool for me - it's absolutely incredible! Then add the sea-view tennis court, plus another swimming pool.
Stay Score
We've done the research for you and audited Albatroz Beach & Yacht Club to find out exactly what this hotel is perfect for! The Stay Dreamer's Stay Score is like a review score, only focussing on the things that really make a stay.
8.3
Conscious and Eco-Luxury
Why We Gave This Score
The hotel reports being energy self-sufficient via photovoltaic panels that generate its electricity, and it has applied for Green Key certification, signalling a structured sustainability programme rather than vague “eco” messaging. The eco angle supports the luxury rather than replacing it, so the experience still feels polished and comfort-led.
8.9
Laidback Beach
Why We Gave This Score
With only 20 bedrooms and a tranquil garden setting, days naturally revolve around swims, sunloungers and quiet terraces rather than a high-energy resort programme.

Insider Tips
A swim in the saltwater sea-level pool at dawn or dusk is not to be missed
Hotel Location
Set on the south coast near Santa Cruz, the hotel is close to the airport and an easy drive to Funchal, yet it feels tucked away in its own gardens with the sea as the main backdrop.
How Close Are Restarants?
There are a few places in Santa Cruz, but for a wider choice you’ll usually head into Funchal or nearby coastal towns.
What Is Nearby to Albatroz Beach & Yacht Club?
Getting there: Fly into Madeira Airport (FNC) and you’re very close, so a short taxi is the easiest move, or drive if you’ve hired a car. Getting around: You can walk into Santa Cruz for cafés and seafront wandering, but you’ll still want a car or tours for levadas and coast trips. The upside is returning to an easy, near-airport base without long drives at the start or end.
Hotel Address: Quinta Dr. Americo Durao Sitio Da Terca, 9100-187 Santa Cruz, Portugal
