Beautiful house with Amazing Sea Views

We are four American women who loved this beautiful house with amazing sea views. We walked into the local village for coffee every morning and took taxis into Funchal most days. We loved the on/off bus in Funchal. We could walk to the famous statue on the sea from this house. It was a great trip!

Spectacular views

The most striking feature of the villa is the setting and the views over the ocean . Panoramic unobstructed views allowed us to view sunrise and sunset. Very spacious ( we were 6 adults) inside and outside Plenty of parking, overall clean except for some ants in a downstairs bedroom . Great location in garajau with restaurants groceries cafe/ bakery nearby. Only issue was the pool was not heated on our request. Manager response was not satisfactory. Otherwise this would be 5 star rated

Amazing base to explore the island, perfect for families Positive: The upstairs balcony offers stun

Amazing base to explore the island, perfect for families : The upstairs balcony offers stunning panoramic views, with a lovely BBQ and seating area, by far our favourite place in the villa. The villa is really spacious throughout and the kitchen is really well-equipped if you plan to cook properly. We found the villa was very clean on arrival, with plenty of towels for the bathrooms and poolside. The games room has both a 3/4-size snooker table and a darts board, along with a couple of games sets (poker, ludo, and cards), and a connection for your phone for music. The wifi worked really well throughout the villa and was super easy to connect to Netflix etc, there were plenty of books left from previous travellers and a few DVDs. Within walking distance, there are a couple of small local shops selling fresh bread, fruit/veg if you run out of things and a couple of nice local restaurants. It only takes about 10/15 mins to walk down to the Christ Rei and the cable car was 10euros down to a pretty pebbled beach. There is a larger supermarket, 5/10 min drive away, if you need to do a bigger shop. We were able to get taxis really quickly via Bolt and went to Funchal a few times (11 euros for a 6-seater taxi), where there is tons to do and see. The GuestReady app the villa uses for support was always very responsive, and I'd recommend downloading it before you arrive. We were a bit disappointed that, having contacted the villa beforehand to ask about getting the pool heated (we went in feb), we were told to bring Euros in cash. When we got there (with the cash), the pool was unheated, and we were then told to pay by bank transfer and had to wait 24-48 hours for the pool to heat up, so we paid for a week (Sat - Sat), but in reality, we only got half a week (Tues-Sat). Some oven gloves and a couple of tea towels would have been useful. Probably worth saying that the fancy bath in the master bedroom is for display only!

Thank you, Michelle, for your lovely review and for choosing our villa as your base to explore the island. We're delighted to hear that your family enjoyed the stunning views from the balcony and the facilities the villa offers, such as the well-equipped kitchen and the games room. It's fantastic that our location allowed you easy access to local shops and restaurants, and that you found the GuestReady app responsive and helpful during your stay. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience with the pool heating. It's important for us to deliver what we promise, and we're currently looking into this to ensure a better experience for future guests. Your feedback about the oven gloves and tea towels is appreciated; steps are being taken to address this. Thank you for bringing the bath display issue to our attention as well. We look forward to hosting you again for a perfect stay in the future. Best regards, GuestReady Team
