Hotel Information: Popular with couples seeking active holidays that include health-club activities as well as leisurely sunbathing, Tivoli Ocean Park Funchal celebrates its oceanfront setting with a two-storey panoramic window wall in the marble lobby, offering views of the pool terrace five storeys below, and the ocean beyond.

Amenity highlights: The sundeck overlooks the ocean and has a family pool and a children's pool. Aqua aerobics classes take place in the heated indoor pool, part of the complimentary health club with fitness centre, sauna, steam room, turbo shower, and spa tub. The Thalassothys Spa offers treatments and beauty services. A complimentary bus transports guests daily to Funchal's Old City near the cable car station, stopping en route at the marina near the modern city centre.

Insider tip: Guests can take cable cars from near Funchal Old Town up to the Monte area for gardens and panoramic views, then return in 19th-century style – in a traditional two-seater wicker sledge. Men in traditional white cotton clothing and straw hats push, steer and brake the sledges, which glide on wooden runners and can reach speeds of nearly 50 kilometres per hour. The two-kilometre journey takes about 10 minutes.
