We stayed in the house in the summer. It was very clean and convenient. All we needed was available. It was for us necessary to rent a car because the house is situated away from public facilities (and in the hills). We loved the heated pool en the view was magnificent. We really loved our stay in the house and Madeira.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We hope to see you again in the near future.
Two couples and two kids for 10 days. The Casita gave privacy for the other couple and the main house lower level and patio was an excellent common area for everybody. Pool was great for kids. Kitchen had everything. 7 minutes to beach and large grocery. Garden was great and we cooked on the bbq. I would recommend this to anybody.
Google maps does not recognize the address or name of the church so I would get a pin for getting there the first time. Easy parking on street, and fun way to walk to the rental on the path.

We were delighted to spend time in this wonderful villa. Everything was extremely clean and as described. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and any queries we had were dealt with immediately by the owner. We will miss the sea views which we could see from every room in the main villa. The villa was very private and was only approximately 100 metres from a hotel that served good food and drinks. A car is a necessity as there is little else in walking distance and everything is very steep. We enjoyed trips to Calhetta where there were a few restaurants and bars and a supermarket. We utilised taxis to get around which were recommended by the owner and reasonably priced. A great holiday!

Thank you for your kind remarks. It was a pleasure having you stay at the villa.
The main house is great for four people as a family or even two pairs. Very nice bathrooms and equipment everywhere. The TV is great.
The second house is a great addition for two to four more people. It is smaller but very nice.
But the best part of the house is the terrace, the garden and the pool. It is a great view over the ocean and the mountainside. We enjoyed it very much.
When we had any problems, the host is answering very quick and arranges actions quick (the pool got a bit murky and it was taken care of within two hours).
All in all, I can recommend this accommodation very much. Thank you so much.
Una bellissima proprietà, in una meravigliosa tranquilla posizione panoramica, dotata di tutti confort e qualcosa in più. Piscina riscaldata a 30 gradi e BBQ fantastico nel giardino coloratissimo dai fiori e banane
Ma quello che la rende veramente speciale è la host, gentilissima e disponibile per rendere la vacanza ancora più piacevole
Super raccomandata

Sejour parfait dans un cadre ideal au calme.
L annonce meriterait 1 precision: 1 des chambre et cuisine sont independants( surement un plus non mentionné)
La pergola surement recemment instalee est 1 plus egalement mais non mentionnee.piscine tres agreable .
Serviette de toilette en quantite ++
Manque peut etre micro onde et produits menagers.
Adresse difficile a trouver pour nous mais hote qui reponds rapidement si besoin: tres bon sejour
Diese Unterkunft ist aufjedenfall weiterzuempfehlen! Wir waren super zufrieden damit. Die Lage ist grandios, mit Blick aufs Meer. Sah alles so aus wie in der Anzeige beschrieben. Der Check In war Dank der genauen Informationen der Vermieter sehr einfach und unkompliziert.
Wäre beim nächsten Besuch auf dieser Insel eine erneute Buchung wert!

Two families from different parts of the world met in Madeira and we all enjoyed our stay and used the house as a base for exploring Madeira. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals; we even used the bbq. In April, the weather was still quite cool and we were grateful for the heated pool. The house looks just as in the pictures. We loved the new outdoor dining area and used it all the time. The small house was perfect for our teenage kids. We especially liked that the neighborhood is walkable. Yes, it is steep, but quite manageable. Just make sure to go to the bar uphill, so you can tumble down back to the house after a drink or two.

Super séjour dans cette belle maison moderne et équipée. Seuls éléments à regretter je dirais sont l’absence de place de parking (tout le monde se gare dans la rue escarpée) et de micro-onde. La piscine chauffée est superbe, la terrasse donne sur un magnifique panorama vue sur mer, c’est magique ! Salle de douches à l’italienne tres modernes et propres. On a passé avec les enfants un super séjour, dans cette partie de l’île où il fait toujours beau !!! Splendide quelle belle île 🤩

Dear Clemence
Thank you for your review, it is really appreciated and helps us to improve the property to give you an enjoyable stay. We are so glad that you enjoyed your holiday there.
We are now looking into installing a microwave in the main house.
The property is off road but this is the main reason why it is so peaceful and tranquil. The road is very quiet and there is ample parking, leaving you a short walk to the property
Best wishes
