INATEL Porto Santo Hotel***
Island of rare beauty is dubbed the "Golden Island"...
Nine hundred kilometers from Lisbon and only forty-five from the island of Madeira, the beautiful island of Porto Santo rises up from clear warm waters in the middle of the immense Atlantic Ocean.
Full of natural contrasts, able to satisfy sun-worshippers with its exceptional 9-kilometre beach, Porto Santo is one of those rare unpolluted spots with its medicinal waters and sands. In 1418 João Gonçalves Zarco and Tristão Vaz Teixeira sailed to this island, marking the beginning of one of the most glorious phases in Portuguese history - the Discoveries. Their arrival in Porto Santo was the first step towards the great voyages that followed, which spread the fame of the Portuguese around the world. INATEL Porto Santo is located in this oasis of nature.
It is in the hotel's outdoor swimming pool that guests gather on warmer days not only to bathe in the sun, but also to be captivated by the natural beauty of the landscape. We have an amphibious chair, allowing us to contribute to greater equality in access to the pool.
The hotel has 36 totally equipped rooms. Bar, restaurant, swimming pool, Wi-Fi, game room meeting room and private parking.
