The luxurious Hotel Saccharum offers stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean, blending wellness with pleasure and sustainability.
The luxurious 5-star Resort Saccharum is nestled in a tranquil bay on the southwest coast of Madeira. With a clear focus on wellness and sustainability, the resort also impresses with breathtaking views of the Atlantic and culinary delights. The stylish decor is influenced by the history of the site, once a sugarcane mill. The blend of modern design and traditional charm creates perfect harmony. The hotel is located by the sea and is just about a 25-minute drive from the island's capital, Funchal.
When booking the Savoy Premium Experience (SPE), enjoy enhanced inclusive services (€80/person per night, included with selected room categories, for more information see below).
Saccharum boasts 7 restaurants and bars. As a tribute to the hotel's origins, the decor in most areas features antique machinery and metals once used for distilling liquids like rum.
