Choupana Hills Resort & Spa

A Design Retreat Above the City

Perched on a south-facing slope above Funchal, Choupana Hills Resort & Spa is a five-star property known for its distinctive architecture — a blend of Asian and African influences set into the forested hillside. It's a member of the Design Hotels collection, and the elevated position means most of the 62 rooms and suites look straight out over Funchal and the bay.

Wellness at the Centre

The resort's spa leans into “essential simplicity,” pairing architectural sophistication with a genuinely calming atmosphere. It's best visited between May and October, and suits romantic breaks, wellness stays, and wine-focused trips alike, given the resort's proximity to Madeira's wine region.

Good to Know

  • Location: Above Funchal, on a forested hillside overlooking the bay
  • Rooms: 62 rooms and suites

A good choice if you want a quieter, design-led stay just a short drive from central Funchal.
