Savoy Palace
Savoy Palace is a large, design-forward Funchal resort with 309 rooms, six pools, a rooftop infinity pool and Portugal’s largest hotel spa, all wrapped in a modern interpretation of Madeira’s gardens and landscapes.
Savoy Palace occupies a central Funchal site within walking distance of the waterfront and city center, yet its scale allows it to operate as a full resort. Madeira-born designer Nini Andrade Silva drew heavily on the island’s flowers, forests and terraces in shaping the interiors.
The hotel has 309 rooms and suites ranging from garden-facing categories to ocean-view accommodations and premium Club-level options. Pale materials, soft curves and botanical motifs keep the rooms connected to Madeira rather than feeling conventionally cosmopolitan.
Laurea Spa spans roughly 3,100 square meters and is described by the hotel as the largest spa in Portugal. It includes 13 treatment rooms, indoor pool, sauna, Jacuzzi, steam room, ice fountain, halotherapy, sensorial showers, relaxation areas and fitness.
The property operates six swimming pools, including the adults-only Galáxia Skypool on the 17th floor. Restaurants and bars range from fire-focused Pau de Lume to rooftop Galáxia Skyfood and more relaxed garden and poolside venues.
Savoy Palace is best for travelers who want Funchal convenience with true resort infrastructure. Its pools, enormous spa and rooftop spaces make it particularly strong for travelers who plan to spend meaningful time at the hotel itself.
