The Reserve - within Savoy Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World
Rooftop pool, private beach, and spa in the heart of Funchal
About this stay
The Reserve offers a luxurious escape in Funchal, blending city convenience with resort-style amenities. From the moment you arrive, the sea views are a constant companion, whether from your private balcony or the striking rooftop pool area. Days here can be spent lounging by the pool, unwinding in the spa with a sauna and hot tub, or taking part in a yoga class. The private beach area provides an exclusive spot for sun and sea. Evenings invite strolls to nearby attractions like Madeira Casino or the Marina do Funchal, both just a short walk away. The hotel's design reflects its historic character while providing modern comforts, making it suitable for both families and couples seeking a refined stay.

Our take
I recommend The Reserve within Savoy Palace to travellers who want five-star facilities without leaving the centre of Funchal: a rooftop pool, a private beach area and a full spa and wellness centre sit a short walk from the city's sights. Rooms have balconies, many with sea views, so ask for one when you book. Guests rate it 9.7 from 64 reviews. Those after an isolated retreat should look outside the city.
- Make sure to explore the rooftop pool area for panoramic views of Funchal and the ocean.
- Take advantage of the spa and wellness centre; consider booking a treatment for ultimate relaxation.
- Walk to the Marina do Funchal in the evening for dinner and to enjoy the waterfront atmosphere.
Why we love it
- The striking rooftop swimming pool with sea views
- Exclusive access to a private beach area
- Comprehensive spa and wellness facilities
- Prime city-centre location near attractions
Why guests love itThe Reserve within Savoy Palace is a five-star hotel in central Funchal with a rooftop pool, a private beach area and a spa and wellness centre, so families can split the day between swimming and the city. Rooms are air-conditioned with balconies, and many look out to sea. The central location keeps walks to the old town and the marina short for children. Guests rate it 9.7 out of 10 across 64 reviews, and I would book it for a family treat in Madeira.
