Wonderful View, great homebase to explore the island...
We had an excellent week staying at this home. The views were amazing, the house was well taken care of, and clean. We traveled all over the island from this location and we truly enjoyed the stay. Thank you
My wife and I had a wonderful time at this place on Madeira. The hosts were lovely and very helpful, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about their guests and wanted us to feel at home.The house is very well equipped with everything you might need (and more), which is especially helpful given luggage limits when flying.Calling the view breathtaking is definitely not an exaggeration. We loved being able to sit outside on the balcony or inside in the sunroom and still fully enjoy it.We would love to come back.
Beautiful House on Mountain Top great view if Arco de Calheta and Ocean side right from balcony outside your bedroom or dining room balcony. Bewutiful Sunrises & Sunsets everyday during our stay
We stayed 5 weeks at this fabulous house wanting for nothing, everything you can want for is available with stunning views . The host Jose is first class with communications etc. I highly recommend this host and her property. We had the perfect stay and will be returning.
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.
We had perfect vacation in this house. The house is equipped with everything you need. The house is absolutely clean and calm. A great kitchen, a nice dining area, confortable living room, nice bath- and sleeping rooms. The view to the ocean is fantastic. If available, we would book this house once again.
This beautiful property and view was one of the best places we have ever rented. The house was spacious, clean, comfortable and just enjoying the view was a highlight of our trip to Madeira. The hosts have thought of everything and were quick to respond to any questions with great advice. Perfect stay and we loved being away from the hustle and bustle of Funchal.
Big place with big kitchen. Everything we needed. But,
Had to park on the steep road overnight. Sewer smell in bathrooms probably due to no heating there.
Overall a very nice stay!
We would stay there again for sure

Thank you for your feedback. After around 20 years renting our place, we always had 5 starts on everything as you can all see it on the advert...samehow and i don´t understand why you maked this review, when for sure there is no smell in those bathrooms, just because we don´t had central heating in the bathroom it don´t mean they smells bad. Plus, when i asked you if everything us ok you replaid saying that everything was fine, why have you not said it then?
Best Christmas wishes
We had a brilliant 2 week stay at the villa. The views from the balconies were amazing both day and night. The house was very well stocked with everything you could possibly need! The beds were extremely comfortable. The house is up a windy road and you do have to park on the road but we had no issues at all. Thank you!
This house was more spacious than I imagined. It was located in a beautiful area, with a magnificent view of the lower levels and the sea. It was fully stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need on a vacation. Some day I’d love to return. Thanks
An eclectic mix of decor inside this house makes it very relaxing, warm, and comfortable……especially the beds!The hosts could not have been more attentive. No request of them was ignored. They were very accommodating.The enclosed sunroom with complete windows was a very important feature for us……on a high clifff in the region with gorgeous and most interesting views.Stay here and enjoy immensely would be our assessment.
We spent a wonderful holiday in this holiday home, which is really equipped with everything. At the end of October we were able to sit in the open conservatory or outside on the terrace a few times, with an indescribable view. We were out and about during the day, which is almost a shame. The two of us only had 1 bedroom, there is room for at least 5 people.
See you soon Madeira LG from Berlin

Beautiful home with spectacular views
This is a truly beautiful property with phantastic views over the village and ocean. We felt at home from the minute we arrived and would have loved to stay longer. The house is perfectly maintained and offers everything you can think of. Modern furniture, lots of space, large balconies and a very well equipped kitchen which is far above average make this home a very special place and certainly one of the best holiday homes we have ever rented. Our special thanks go to the very friendly landlord Rosa. We will try to come back soon.

This house was exactlly as stated in the details.
Thank you very much Rosa, for making our stay in your house possible.
It is an excellent home and a perfect location, and a wonderful place to relax.
Rosa was an excellent hostess, and would thoroughly recommend this house to anyone whether it be a couple or a family. We have been to Maderia several times but this was absolutely perfect, and will most definately come back again next summer.
Once again Rosa thank you very much for everything.

Beautiful views but too cold in winter
We stayed 9 nights in this house.
PRO
* Magnificent views from all the rooms (Arco de Calheta and sea)
* Very friendly hostess
* Spacious and well-equipped
CONTRA
* Too cold inside the house, we had to carry around an electric heater to keep warm
* The bed in the master bedroom is very uncomfortable, hard with springs

Thank you for your feedback. Considering you were my first guests to point it out about the bed. What is very odd is during your stay, I asked you a few times if everything was ok and you said yes everything were perfect... never asked for a second heater. As we all know there is nothing we can do about the weather, Madeira also has winter time…END of NOVEMBER is winter.
About the bed is 2 to 3 year all, in Portugal we use hard beds with springs but we will look it to it and see if we need to get a new one.
Thank you once again; hopes to see you on or next visit to Madeira. We will do our best to satisfy your needs.
Regards

This home in Arco de Calheta is the perfect location if you're looking for a beautiful, affordable place to unwind after an active day. First, the house is beautiful. The views are magnificent. The home is completely stocked with everything you'll need to enjoy your stay. It serves as a great hub to explore the best parts of the island. If you're an active person looking for hiking, sunrise viewing, swimming in natural pools, and other adventures, you will find all that within reach. To be fair, this is not "Club Med" You will need to rent a car (this is my personal opinion, as there is a reputable taxi service available.) Driving here takes some getting used to. There are many steep hills, narrow roads, and hairpin turns. Parking anywhere on the island can be challenging, but if you get going early, you'll have no problem. All that said, I should mention that I'm 70 years old. This place is like a fountain of youth. You can go all day, return to a beautiful home, take a hot bath, then sit out on the deck with a glass of wine and enjoy an awesome sunset. Maybe feel like a young person again.
Fantastisch!! Wat een geweldig huis met een nog waanzinniger uitzicht over het dal/baai. Super ruim, netjes, erg compleet. Wij gaan zeker nog een keer naar deze locatie terug.
Das Haus bietet eine hervorrande Ausstattung und einen herrlichen Blick über die Küste!Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und bedanken uns sehr für diese schöne Unterkunft, die unsere Erwartungen sogar noch bei weitem übertroffen hat!Die Ausstattung des Hauses bietet wirklich alles und noch viel mehr als man benötigt, die Sauberkeit ist top, der Ausblick spitze, die Betten bequem,...Wir kommen gerne wieder und bedanken uns für den schönen Aufenthalt!
Nous sommes ravis de notre expérience. La maison est tout à fait conforme à la description, elle est spacieuse, propre, la vue sur l'océan est magnifique dans le cadre idyllique de Madère, que demander de plus... À notre arrivée, nous avons pu bénéficier d'une délicate attention, soit une bouteille de vin. Nous étions ravis de partir explorer l'île chaque matin et heureux de revenir dans le confort et le calme de cette maison en fin de journée pour relaxer en dégustant "vin et tapas" tout en admirant la beauté de la vue du soleil couchant sur la mer. Nous avons pu compter sur Rosa pour répondre à nos questions lorsque nous en avons eu besoin. Merci pour tout et nous espérons pouvoir revenir un jour!Marie-Claude et SergeQuébec, CANADA
Wir haben uns in diesem bestens ausgestatteten und sehr sauberen Haus sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist sehr gut. Die Betten sind prima. Die Vermieterin ist immer sofort zu erreichen, sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Lage auf der Insel ist wirklich prima. Man kann sehr schnell viele Wanderungen erreichen, man ist in relativ kurzer Zeit in Funchal, aber dennoch abseits des Großstadtrubels. Wir würden jederzeit wieder dorthin fahren. -Bezogen auf einige vorige Bewertungen möchte ich noch einiges richtigstellen: Ja, es stimmt. tagsüber kann man die Autos aus dem Dorf hören, aber es ist nicht vielbefahren, sondern ganz normal. Das Haus selbst liegt an einer Sackgasse, und da es etwas tiefer liegt, hört man da praktisch nichts.Nachts ist es sehr ruhig, bis auf die üblichen Hunde und Hähne. Mit geschlossenem Fenster hört man diese gar nicht. Alle Räume sind über die Klimaanlagen sehr gut und einstellbar zu beheizen.Und die Sonne kommt zwar erst nachmittags herum, aber das Haus ist ab morgens durch die vielen Fenster sehr hell.
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt in diesem Haus. Der Blick ist wirklich wunderschön. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet was man sich wünscht. Die Selbstversorgung fällt nicht schwer, denn es ist alles vorhanden. Parkmöglichkeit auf der Straße nach der ortsüblichen Methode. Auto sollte vorhanden sein. Zur Begrüßung gab es einen leckeren Wein und Bananen, die dort ja überall wachsen und einfach toll schmecken. Der Kontakt zu den Vermietern war sehr gut über Email bzw. Fewo-App und es wurde sehr schnell reagiert, wenn Fragen auftauchten.
Wunderschöne Wohnung mit mega Wintergarten und toller Aussicht. Super Ausstattung, super bequeme Betten und tolle Bäder. Alles vorhanden für den Start in eine tolle Woche. Supermarkt paar Minuten entfernt mit Bistro zum Essen, ganz günstig mitzunehmen wenn man zu faul zum Kochen ist. Guter Ausgangspunkt für den Westteil der Insel. Kommen bestimmt wieder. Danke für alles
Das ist ein Traum. Alles da was man braucht. Sehr sauber. Die Lage und die Sicht aus dem Wintergarten ist traumhaft. Leider konnten wir mit zwei Personen nicht alles nutzen. Wir haben uns selbst gekocht und dafür ist die Küche perfekt. Hochwertige Geräte...Dazu ist man sehr schnell auf der Hochebene. Nur das Wetter war nicht ganz optimal aber dafür kann die Wohnung nix.
