Hotel Roca Mar

Great location, beautiful views, amazing sunrises good spa facilities and nice breakfast.

Spa opening times are strange, we wanted to use them after busy days exploring the island, but at 18:00 everything is closed.

Amaxing location, just on the cliffs with a view over the ocean. Room was big and comfortable. Breakfast was good with some adjustments every day. Canico is nice small village, away from the hustle and bustle of Funchal but close to everything.

Strange SPA working hours. Pools and sauna work till 18:00, but in Madeira you are all day somewhere hiking or exploring island and exactly after 18:00 is the time when you would like to relax in the indoor pool.

Beautiful ocean, clean and comfortable room, big bed, amazing view from the balcony. Breakfast was variable and tasty.

Spa and pool working hours only from 10:00 till 18:00, this is uncomfortable if you wish to explore the island and not only be in hotel all day.

Well maintained and lovely

The ocean pool should be cleaned on the pool floor

The spacious room and the free upgrade, the kitchenette in the room, the sea views, the proximity to local bars, cafes and restaurants yet it's not in the hustle and bustle of Funchal if you can call it that. It's really laid back the local area. The breakfast is good but some mornings I felt it took too long so I ate in my room and then went straight for the bus to Funchal.

I wasn't keen on the price of the evening meal as it wasn't included and the a la cart restraurant wasn't for me as I've tried octopus before. The local area has a lot of German visitors and residents. I can speak a tiny bit of German but I need to improve. Some English people wouldn't like the language difference. I wish there were more English speaking guests to chat to though.

Amazing location! Rocamar and Royal Orchid hotels are a complex of 2 hotels right above the ocean, which is why I choose this place. Upon my arrival on March 29th 2024 for a one week stay in Canico I was upgraded from my double room with sea view and balcony to a 40m2 studio in the Royal Orchid which was perfectly equipped, spotlessly clean (spacious bath room and room service every day) and very comfortable, with a big balcony overlooking the ocean and the waves putting me to sleep. Breakfast until 10:30 was very good with a lot of choice. I loved the 2 outdoor seawater pools for swimmming. Nice spa with indoor pool and small sauna, and a fitness room. An absolut highlight were my two 1hour massage treatments by Sofia at the Spa, she is truly amazing! They were by far the best treatments I ever had in a hotel spa! Sofia, thank you again!!

Very good and abundant breakfast buffet. Good quality food. The restaurant is very big and it gets quite busy in the morning! Spacious room and bathroom which were both spotless. (cleaned every day) Great view over the ocean and surrounding coast from the balcony. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great location

Our room was just above the restaurant which has a very large terrace overlooking the ocean. The live entertainment in the evening could be clearly heard as well as the conversations of people sitting on the terrace. Fortunately, as evenings were a bit cool (it was 3rd week of March), not many people were sitting outside very late but in summer, it is probably a lot more noisy.
