Our take
The Editory Ocean Way is a five-star Funchal hotel with indoor and outdoor pools open all year, a spa with sauna, a garden, a fitness room, a restaurant, a bar and a pool bar. A 9.1 rating from more than 180 reviews shows the service holds up. I would choose it for comfort and pools; travellers on a tight budget will find simpler guesthouses in town.
- Explore the spa facilities early in your stay to make the most of the sauna and relaxation areas.
- Try the traditional restaurant for dinner; the local cuisine options are a highlight.
- Take advantage of both the indoor and outdoor pools, especially if you're visiting during cooler months.

Why guests love itI recommend The Editory Ocean Way to families who want a polished Funchal base where swimming never depends on the weather. The indoor and outdoor pools are open year-round, the garden gives children space, and the pool bar keeps afternoons easy. The spa and sauna suit parents after a levada walk, and the restaurant serves Mediterranean and Madeiran dishes, so dinner can stay on site.
