This is the second time we have stayed at Casa Das Flores. Its great. Spacious, clean and really well appointed. Great location and so quiet too. We simply love it and we will return. Thanks Camilla - look forward to booking again soon.
We were let down by another host on the island, and luckily found this villa. An excellent location for exploring the island, the villa is lovely, lots of space, very clean and first class facilities. Easy and helpful communication with the host. We had a lovely week. Thank you.
You often hear that the photos don't do the property justice, these really don't. Our initial conversations with Olga were assisted by Google translate as my German is as non existent as her English - and they had the support of a local, English speaking lady to show us around which was great. The property was spotlessly clean and really well equipped with coffee machines and a nice welcome pack of fruit and wine - and a nice touch of villa monogrammed dressing gowns. The view from the terrace over the valley below and the village and sea beyond was stunning - we never tired of it. The initial drive up to the house (you will need a car) was a little surprising and hilly but you get used to it after a while. All in all, a beautiful place to stay, we had a wonderfully relaxing and luxurious week, thankyou so much to Olga and Alexandra.
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!
Hugo and his team are very welcoming and helpful before and on arrival.
The view is wonderful at all times of the day and the accommodation perfect for our party of seven. We hired cars for the duration, a must to enjoy what Madeira has to offer. We very much enjoyed the local village and various spots along this southern coast line. Calheta beach offers an array of restaurants and a supermarket close by.
A very chilled and enjoyable holiday on this sunny side of the island.
We enjoyed our fortnight here last summer so much that we booked it again and stayed for another two weeks this year.
It is a stunningly beautiful property with huge rooms that are well furnished plus a lovely heated swimming pool.
We learned our lesson last year and hired a more powerful car this year which made it so much easier negotiating the steep hill and hairpin bends to access the property
OK, this was our first VRBO booking and it will certainly not be our last. With all the C19 rubbish going on - they have been brilliant with cancellations and refunds.
On to our stay at the "Sun & Moon" at Arco da Calheta. It was brilliant.
From the start, the comms from Christina were spot on - nice and regular with lots of information. We were 4 hours late landing - but still met up and drove up into the hills.
The location (for us) was spot-on. We didn't want to be in Funchal or mass-produced hotel on the coast and the villa is nestled in the hills up some windy roads. Views are really great at all times of the day, and nice and quiet.
The villa was spotlessly clean and Dora the cleaner didn't leave any stone unturned - even doing our washing when we were out fot the day which was a nice surprise!
Our daughter spent every hour at the villa in the pool - a nice temperature when you got in. Pool towels were provided which cut down on our luggage weight considerably.
The main bedroom's bed is massive and comfy mattress - a really good night sleep.
The BBQ/ pizza oven annex is really great as well - we BBQ'd a lot.
But it was the little touches that really stand out - like cotton buds being provided. Having two teenagers we were relieved the wifi was quick and reliable. The place even comes with its own secure garage (not massive, but we got our rental Focus Estate in there).
Locally there are supermarkets (scary parking) and only 20 minutes to Funchal with a really easy drive. We parked in CR7 car park on the sea front and it wasn't massively expensive. In fact, most places on the island are no more than an hour's drive from the villa.
We really enjoyed the stay and cannot thank Christina enough for making our holiday special.
