Socalco is a truly gorgeous accommodation for a unique stay in Calheta. The entire property is beautiful, lined with gardens growing grapes, herbs, and vegetables under the scenery of a Madeiran coastal hill. Every corner of Socalco is tastefully decorated and the rooms have a clean and modern aesthetic that exudes comfort. The rooms boast views over the coast and breakfast is a true highlight, enjoyed on the terrace with a view over Calheta beach. Breakfast is also thoughtfully curated, with meats, cheeses, fruits, tea, coffee, and a cooked egg breakfast, all of exceptional quality. We were so pleased to stay here and we will absolutely return if we are back in Madeira. Treat yourself to even a few nights here, it's absolutely worth it!

Beautiful hotel, lovely staff all very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, I loved the breakfast and the two evening meals we had were top quality. You can also order drinks and snacks during the day if you are relaxing at the property. The room was perfect (cascata, room 10) very private with lovely views and everything you need. It was worrying driving up the road the first time as it is very steep and with a sheer drop off the edge of the car park and road but to be honest after one day driving in Madeira you are used to it!

Everything was top notch. The property is fantastic, our room was beautiful and very clean. The breakfast was wonderful. We stayed for dinner one evening and service and food was fantastic. Don’t hesitate to stay here. Our only challenge was navigating parking on a very steep hill - but this is true of many places on Madeira.

The most wonderful stay

We had the most incredible stay. The views were fantastic from the hotel/room. The breakfast included was amazing, you need to have dinner at the restaurant. The staff at this hotel were incredible and made the stay even more special. We look forward to staying here again when we next visit Madeira.

Not enough superlatives to describe this hotel

We stayed in the cascades room. Absolutely beautiful . Breakfast on terrace with gorgeous fresh and delicious food. Everything here here is quality- food, service, craftsman furnishings and fittings, fabulous tended grounds. Loved our little Levada walk around the room to the river source. Everything so secluded. Views are incredible.

We had an incredible stay at Socalco! We stayed in the cave room and it was a beautiful and unique experience. The room was comfortable and the property grounds are gorgeous. We had an incredibly relaxing stay- a perfect retreat after hiking around the island. The staff gave excellent recommendations for places to explore. I highly recommend getting dinner at their restaurant. We ended up eating there both nights of our stay because we had such an incredible experience the first night. Everything is made fresh and includes food from their garden. Their is no menu, the chef changes what he makes daily.

Amazing hotel

Our stay at Socalco Nature was truly unforgettable. The hotel is ideally located above the town to relax and enjoy the beautiful views. The rooms are welcoming, with lovely big windows to sit in and look out onto the vineyards. The staff are incredibly welcoming and go above and beyond to ensure you have the perfect stay. We didn't want to leave, and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for relaxation, delicious food, and beautiful views.
