Magical
Casa de Maloeiro was magical. It is an ultra-modern and very comfortable house. The setting is stunning and the views spectacular. Although we got a cold wintry spell during our stay the house was very warm and cosy in itself even before we warmed it up further in the evenings with the log fire. The hot tub was a real treat after days of exploration. Can't wait to come back and stay here again.

Wonderful vacation property
The house and Jacuzzi and BBQ were fantastic. I would recommend the owners install a dishwasher and provide a bbq grill tongs and bbq grill spatula as well as a better bbq grill grate over the fire.

A lovely modern villa.
A fantastic villa with amazing views. The log fire kept us warm on the chillier evenings. There was no air conditioning, but it wasn’t needed in February.
The kitchen was well equipped and the outside log bbq was great for barbecuing.
Sitting in the hot tub of an evening watching the stars was a highlight.

Rundum zufrieden
Ein sehr schönes Haus mit allen Annehmlichkeiten, die man sich vorstellen kann. Whirlpool und Pool super.
Da es sich um zwei Schlafzimmer und eine Schlafcouch handelt, würden wir die Unterkunft eher für 4 Personen empfehlen als für 6.

Amazing stay! Wish we could live here (that's how great it was)
From the title of this review you can already tell how amazed we were by this stay at Casa da Maloeira. We spent our first days in Madeira here and we wish we never left. This house had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay and the photos didn't disappoint. When we checked-in we were surprised by a tote bag welcoming us and fresh flowers - felt immediately like home. Talking about the view: you can actually see the ocean and the landscape is absolutely stunning. The rooms are comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need, all the amenities were in perfect condition and it felt like all the details were well thought out. 10/10 would stay here again and for a longer period of time, so we can fully enjoy.

The pictures were promising, but this was our worst experience in terms of accommodation ever
Unfortunately, we can't recommend this place to anyone. We've even had health issues due to poor maintenance of the whirlpool!
Positive:
- The property and the house itself are beautiful, the view is great and there is a pool as well as a whirlpool - that's it!
Negative: This is going to be a rather long list...
- The whirlpool caused a hot tub folliculitis among all guests. While some only experienced minor issues my fiancé had severe symptoms. It happened around the 4th day of our stay. While scrolling through the reviews on booking we found that we weren't the only guests that experienced this. Quite shocking that the agency did not properly take care of this issue.
- Cleanliness upon arrival was poor. We took off our shoes and after walking around the house for only a few minutes our white socks were brown. Really?
- There were insects everywhere in the house. Only two windows had fly screens which made it impossible to let windows open during the day or night without inviting all types of insects from the outside
- The bigger bathroom upstairs had two major issues: The shower screen had very poor waterproofing. After every shower half of the bathroom was flooded. The toilet was very prone to clogging. Only a few tissues too much and it was clogged.
- Equipment: For such a modern house the equipment was dissatisfying. There was no dishwasher and only one trash bin for three lavatories. No vacuum cleaner, no AC
- The storage room suffered from a very bad smell and the washing machine made the laundry smell like a wet dog
- WiFi connection was ok in the living room, but poor as soon as you were upstairs or outside in-front of the house (no WiFi at all)
The list goes on... But I don't have enough characters left to fully write my review. Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. The house is also located fairly remote and apparently built in a wind corridor with a temperature drop of around 4-5 degrees compared to e.g. Arco da Calheta.
