"Very good communication, given the door codes before arriving. Accommodation was excellent, bed was very comfy and shower fab. We used public transport so you need to work out the buses that pass the door unless you don't mind walking. It's about a 25 minute walk to the airport from the property. Lovely garden area and has a banana plantation right in front of accommodation. Airport is very close so many flights taking off and landing. If using buses you can use the 113 bus to and from machico...

"Excellent property if you're looking for a short stay away from the crowds, with a local flavour, ocean view and surrounded by small vineyard and gardens."

"This property was clean, modern, and well decorated! It had everything we wantes in a VRBO, and the kitchen was fully stocked. It is perched atop a tall cliff, and provided very scenic views of the ocean, as far as the eye could see!"

"We really enjoyed staying here. They had wifi, nice kitchen, even shampoo provided and washing machine + pods, fast service and replies and an easy check-in. Everything was like on the pictures and the contact was always really fast and friendly.
What should be considered is that there are a lot of small animals around which is normal like centipede and ants but we could easily handle them just to keep in mind.
We stayed there in Mai 2024 and it was a bit colder (+ tiles so maybe some warm...

"Nice multi-level property with a rooftop terrace that provides a great view of Funchal. Management was quick and responsive. Be aware that if the weather is hot there’s no AC. They provided a room AC that worked for the bottom floor, and fans for the other two bedrooms…but it was warm for sleeping…but otherwise really enjoyed our stay!"

"The service of the team war excellent! Couldn‘t be better. The accomodation was well equipped and great.

"Loved the property and the pool. Great place to hang out for an hour or two between excursions.The only issue was the lack of local shops for buying breakfast etc,"

"The accommodation fully matches the description. The location offers a breathtaking view of the city of Funchal and the harbor, yet it is absolutely quiet and still very centrally located. Communication with Carlota was flawless and without waiting times. All in all, a clear recommendation."

"Wir waren Mitte November für zwei Wochen in diesem Haus. Trotz des geringen Abstandes zum Flughafen liegt das Haus sehr ruhig. Man kann startende und landende Flugzeuge hören, aber die Lärmbelastung war sehr gering.Das wunderschöne alte Bauernhaus wurde liebevoll modernisiert und ist mit allem ausgestattet was wir benötigten. Der Garten ist gepflegt. Nur an die Parksituation des Autos mussten wir uns erst gewöhnen, es klappte mit unserm Kleinwagen aber einwandfrei."

"Had never been to Madeira before but I think Funchal is a great base.
The house is tucked away in a residential area with lovely gardens and ocean views.
Lots of space for four adults (and probably more), though more than 2 couples wouldn't each have a bathroom, the third one on the main floor, while handy, is just a toilet and washbasin.
The kitchen was great for meal prep after trips to the supermarket to buy from the wonderful array of fresh fruit, veg, meat and especially fish (and the...

"Pros:
Had a wonderful time in your Beach House! The views were more beautiful than I ever imagined.
Family had one of our favorite vacations.
Cons:
Showers need immediate repair. First bedroom shower downstairs was stopped up and the pan filled with water. The other 2 bedroom showers leaked and flooded the bathroom floors.
A little repair would make a big difference."

"Wunderschönes sauberes Haus mit überraschend gutem Duft. wir haben es geliebt abends nach dem ein oder anderen Tagesausflug nach Hause zu kommen. Besonders schön war die Möglichkeit Planespooting in absolut perfekter Sicht betreiben zu können. Falls wir Madeira wieder besuchen, wissen wir jetzt schon bei welchem Anbieter wir buchen."

"We were really looking forward to this place as it was our last accommodation on the island. Unfortunately we didn’t realize how high up in the mountains you are - it adds like 15 mins just trying to get up to the property from the towns near by You’re far away from everything! Parking in this place is also very annoying and hard if you’re not a good driver to maneuver around tight corners of the gate and stone walls. Additionally the photos made us think these individual places were spaced out...

Dreams Madeira Resort Spa & Marina - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"Right from our arrival the staff took care of us. Buffet closed at 10pm and we arrived at 945. They took us to the buffet and told us not to worry, our bags would be in our room.
As the week went on we enjoyed the amenities of the hotel. Lots of great activities to do at the resort including local drink making, art, yoga, tai chi, meditation, exercise classes, tile decorating.
Food was outstanding. Never been to a resort where the food was so good. Al a carte options were awesome. Buffet was incredible for breakfast lunch and supper
Weather was so good. 19-22 degrees daily. The pools were cool but refreshing in the sun.
Tours around the island were easy to book. And fun to do. We did jeep tours of the northwest and northeast part of the island 2 separate days. Pickup and drop off were at the hotel. Super simple. Super fun
I would recommend dreams hotel and the island of Madeira to everyone who enjoys top notch food, kind people, and wonderful scenery. A hikers paradise as well. We will be coming back. Dreams hotel was so great."

"Great location and caring staff, with a few small improvements needed
The location of the hotel is wonderful, and the island itself is absolutely beautiful. It would honestly be a shame to spend all your time just staying at the hotel — we explored the island, enjoyed the nature, watched the sunrises, and truly appreciated our time here.
The reception staff were very kind and caring, which made our stay even more pleasant. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience.
We especially appreciated the access to the sauna and the option to request a lunch box. Since we chose to wake up early to watch the sunrise and explore the island, we unfortunately never made it to breakfast (even though it was included in the price), so the lunch box option was very helpful for us.
However, there are a few things that could be improved.
There were no slippers in the room, which would have been a nice addition. Also, the lunch boxes were inconsistent: one morning it was prepared only for one person (even though there were two of us), the next day it was for two people, and on the third day again only for one. We were not sure why this happened.
Another issue was the strong smell in the room upon arrival. It smelled heavily of chlorine, almost like a hospital. It made the first night quite uncomfortable. Perhaps adding some light room fragrance or sachets could help create a more welcoming atmosphere.
Overall, we had a good stay and enjoyed our time on the island. With a few small improvemen"
