<\/div>\n<\/div>\nSixty metres above the Atlantic, The Views Ba\u00eda surveys Funchal from a privileged position. An adults-only hotel where city, mountains and sea remain present from the first coffee to the final drink<\/strong>.<\/span>
\n\t
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/h3>\n

Some hotels seek out a view; this one appears to have been designed around it. Set on a hillside above Funchal, The Views Ba\u00eda looks across the harbour, the city\u2019s tiled rooftops and the mountains rising behind them. In the morning, ships can be seen approaching the island; after dark, the bay glows below.<\/p>\n

\n\t
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

The mood is contemporary and cosmopolitan, without unnecessary ceremony. Rooms favour light and landscape, facing either the Atlantic or Madeira\u2019s green slopes. Its adults-only setting keeps the pace pleasingly calm, while the city remains close enough for dinner, museums or an unhurried morning at the market.<\/p>\n

\n\t
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

The outdoor pool follows the line of the horizon. Inside, guests will find a heated pool, gym and spa with sauna, Turkish bath, jacuzzi and treatment rooms. Returning from the streets of Funchal, the climb back to the hotel brings a welcome change of register: less noise, cooler air and the city spread out below.<\/p>\n

\n\t
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

At the top of the building, Desarma occupies the 11th floor. Chef Oct\u00e1vio Freitas draws on Madeira\u2019s produce, memories and landscapes to create tasting menus that are precise, assured and firmly rooted in the island. The Michelin star offers recognition; the cooking supplies the argument.<\/p>\n

\n\t
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Elsewhere, Bay View serves meals against the panorama, while Woogie Boogie takes care of cocktails as the sun slips behind the mountains. The hotel\u2019s character lies in this balance between Funchal\u2019s urban energy and the measured distance of its hillside setting.<\/p>\n
