Just What We Had Hoped For
We were two retired couples who stayed at Villa Murphy for 10 days in mid -February. The villa itself suited us prfectly with the two en suite bedrooms set apart and very private. Perhaps we were a little too early in the season to really enjoy the wonderful balconies especially for meals and the villa itself was difficult to keep warm. Nevertheless we were on the sunny side of Madeira so had many beautiful sunny days and lovely sunsets over the ocean.

Excellent experience
The house and the location were perfect. The house is about 30 minutes outside of Funchal, and is in a very quiet area surrounded by houses and home garden plots. Many of the lovely towns (Jardim do Mar, Maddalena Do Mar) are very close, and access to the mountain levadas is close as well, by way of Prazeres. The property manager was very quick to respond, professional, and helpful. The house itself is spectacular. A second floor wrap around patio is accessible through both bedrooms. I'd stay here again. This may not be the place for you if access to services is important. There's no phone, no internet and no substantial grocery stores. All of the above are probably a 15 minute drive. There is a small grocery store and cafe with a friendly owner very close by. But this remoteness is why we loved it so much.

Loved it - sun, scenery and an amazing home
We absolutely loved our stay here. Every morning we went out onto the balcony and looked out over the ocean and, in the evening, watched the sun set. The kitchen is well-stocked with pots, pans and dishes, and there is a large fridge. The bed was very comfortable - not too hard or too soft - and we slept well every night. Not only did we eat on the balcony, but also used the patio at the bottom of the garden - again with beautiful views over the water. More than anything else, we couldn't get over how quiet the house and area are. Periodically, a rooster would crow, but there was no traffic noise or rowdy neighbours; it was just plain quiet. There is a friendly, local cafe across the street where food and drinks are very inexpensive (scabbard fish on a bun - 5 Euros; a small Coral beer - 1.20 Euros; freshly squeezed orange juice - 2.40 Euros, to give you an idea). We loved it so much, my wife and I are seriously thinking of coming back to Madeira and spending a couple of weeks (or more) just to enjoy the sun and scenery - and we would definitely come back to this rental property.

Calm and caring owner
Our checking at a late hour was completely managed by Sarah which was a very pleasant start for our stay. The house is located in a calm neighborhood and is fully equipped. We lack of nothing from outdoor furnitures to spices to cook. Sarah is very thoughtful regarding her guests as she is always reachable by phone for quick tips about where to eat or where to hike. It was a pleasure to stay there, explore the area and meeting her and her husband Ciaran.

About the host

Hosted by Ciaran & Sarah

Host profile image
We are living on Madeira for almost 20 years. We have always worked with holiday rentals and tourism and we enjoy it very much. We live in the next village so are on hand should you need any help in finding your feet. We love madeira and know all the very best places to explore. Our daughter was born here 10 years ago, so another reason to love the Island even moe. The Island has much to offer you. Come and see us soon.

Why they chose this property

We built Villa Murphy in 2006 - we designed the build ourselves having found lots of other villas for sale quite small and dark. We wanted to offer our guests open space and lots of light. We also wanted nice big balconies from the bedrooms and panoramic views of the ocean. The villa is a beautiful large building with lots of space throughout the property and never fails to impress our guests: hence our reviews.
The village location too is very typical of rural Madeira and is a great base to explore the surrounding nature. The people are very friendly and local bread, vegetable and fish vans still deliver in old Maderian style to your door.

What makes this property unique

The villa is a large, spacious, bright and airy property with wonderful ocean views. The balconies, bbq terrace and bottom garden patio provide even more space. You can enjoy breakfast on the top balcony, bbq your dinner on the bottom terrace and retire to the garden patio for an evening drink. Perfect. This property easily accommodates up to 4 adults but is also ideal for a couple who like their own bedroom and bathroom with plenty of space.
The location is ideal to get out and about and explore: all the best sites are only a short drive away starting with the marina and beach being a 5 minute drive to the famous rock pools of Porto Moniz only a 25 minute drive away.
This side of the Island is renowned for warmer weather and beautiful levada walks.
The villa is the perfect holiday accommodation: very well appointed and in a great location to explore.
