"What an awesome stay! The place is nestled in the mountains a few km above Sao Vicente. You’ll need wheels! It is a typical village surrounded by locals - not a tourist in site. The perfect getaway! The property itself was great. Obviously lived in, so you’re in somebody’s actual house rather than a faceless rental. Everything you need is there to cook, clean and sleep soundly. Communication with the owner was brilliant via WhatsApp, and entry was easy via a key safe. Drive has space for a...

"The view is great."

"Het huisje ligt rustig in de bergen. Je hebt een (huur)auto nodig om het eiland te verkennen. Uitzicht is mooi (je kijkt richting de oceaan) maar de inrichting is erg basis. Nauwelijks voorzieningen aanwezig in het huisje. Ze zijn wel bezig met opknappen en renoveren maar het is allemaal wat ouder/basic."

"What an amazing property with the most fantastic views - perfect part of the island with the little beach below and cable car access The owner was really responsive with messages and very helpful, even helping to organise a birthday cake Had a little trouble with alarms going off when we arrived but it was soon sorted Can highly recommend the restaurant in town called Ferrugem - staff were wonderful Also True Spirit Jeep Tours to the North with off roading and vineyard/winetasting - they even...

"Lovely property, great view, real authentic experience of the island. Ideal for couples looking to explore. Many amenities very close by shops,restaurants, beaches only 30minutes from Funchal it was perfect!"

"Very impressed. Hugo was a great. Friendly and helpful"

"The view and the proximity to the local sites. "

"This is hands down the best VRBO experience we have ever had. The house is beautiful, tastefully decorated, comfortable beds, and has a well stocked kitchen. We thoroughly enjoyed making meals at home and eating them outside while taking in the breathtaking view. It was just my wife and our 3 year old daughter, but the house could easily be a good place for two families. The only negative is getting in and out of the tight car space. However, realistically this helps you get prepared for...

"Items in the bathroom needed repair, there was a lack of utensils and general information on the use of the electrical setup. Worse of all the Property Manager insinuated that we may have broken the towel rack instead of us finding it that way. THIS EVEN AFTER I GAVE HIM SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO MAKE THE PLACE MORE PRESENTABLE AND CONVENIENT FOR CLIENTS...."

"our family have five adults, stay for one week. Maria is very good landlady. House is very clean, cozy, and very nice. we are enjoying there very much. maybe we will go back again. thank you"

"1st trip 2 stunning Madeira, organised accommodation ( flight & rental car) 2 weeks b4 arriving. The new villa is very spacious for 6 (no single beds). Kitchen & 2.5 bathrms are well equipped mostly (needs corkscrew, colander, more towels, outdoor furniture, but had dishwasher & laundry tablets). Expedia shows the villa in Funchal (it is not). The letting agency hasn’t fixed this (could c the villa on other platforms, elsewhere, & google maps doesn’t recognise its street address correctly, u...

"Our host João was very kind and helpful. The property was very good and was as described in the listing. It included all the facilities that we needed and was located a 10 minute walk away from Central Funchal. All in all it served as a lovely base to explore the rest of Madeira from."

"Excellent stay, 10/10 recommend. Very clean and well maintained, beautiful views. Host was easy to communicate with, responsive, and had lots of thoughtful touches (local fruit, water, etc). Well stocked kitchen for cooking. Would recommend a car, but that’s true for most of Madeira. "

"Endroit propre Propriétaire sympas bien reçu Belle vue sur la plage En revanche, Réception jamais présente a part pour l’arrive et le départ Il y avait un bar avec piscine où il y avait jamais personne si on voulait boire un verre ou autre Machine à café hs+ machine à boisson hs lors du séjour la seule machine qui fonctionnait était celle des cigarettes Endroit reculer donc circulation moyenne Endroit encore en cours de travaux"

"We found this apartment extremely difficult to find with the directions given. We had to ask help from locals to find it. Perhaps it would have been easier if we had a GPS with us for directions. Once found the apartment was great, very quiet, had all we needed (other than a corkscrew for the wine). A lovely area to visit."

"Good size apartment/house with an amazing view to Funchal. There was an issue with the hot water but was resolved within two days. Very clean and comfortable."

"Beautiful house with fabulous pool. We did not hire a car for our stay. Taxis were fairly cheap -€6 to centre of Funchal. Very clean and spacious. Would definitely recommend."

"Sunset views are amazing. The a/c was nice. Did not need to go to grocery store for any of the little things used everyday. Will definitely rebook and will encourage friends to also."

"This renovated rustic Madeiran guest house is up in the hills above the main town of Calheta, in Arco de Calheta parish. It is comfortable and fairly quiet. The hosts are extremely nice and accommodating and very responsive to anything that is needed, and were very helpful. Finding the property is somewhat difficult initially, both with Google maps (as warned) and even with the provided directions (which are a bit difficult to understand) but Jose' and Mary graciously met us in town when we...

"A lovely, comfortable house with everything you need. Location is so peaceful (15 mins drive to Funchal.) Patricia & Fernando helpful & friendly throughout. Welcome pack was excellent. The island is beautiful but you definitely need a car to get around. We managed to see so much of this beautiful place. So many places to eat & take in the views. Driving isn’t for the faint hearted but it’s worth it to see everything. The house is clean & comfortable. The pool is perfect and the games room a...
