This villa is just sublime! Beautiful villa, absolutely gorgeous location, well stocked kitchen, communication with Rui was excellent with very prompt responses. There was nothing at all to dislike. If you like privacy and seclusion, with fantastic views, then this is the villa for you.Short drive (15 mins) to a few supermarkets. Jardim do Mar is a village only a short drive away well worth going to see.Nothing negative to say at all about this villa, location, host, etc. Just superb!
This place is a slice of heaven. Do yourself a favor and stay here. We loved it.

Great home with incredible ocean view
We spent almost one week at this home. The views are beautiful. We were looking for calm, peaceful, silent area and we got it there. We enjoyed every minute we spent there. Beds were good, bathrooms clean, kitchen well equipped and fireplace ready to use. It was really great time for us.

Only with your comments, we can improve our service.We are delighted that you have enjoyed your stay at our Villa and found the peace and quiet you have been searching for. Hope you can stay again in the future when visiting Madeira island.
Beautiful property on the edge of the earth. The sunsets are amazing from the balcony, dinner table, pool, and anywhere else on the property. The pictures in the listing do not do justice for the beauty and privacy of the house. Five out of five stars, easily.

Christmas on the "Island of Eternal Spring"
We have spent Christmas holidays 2010 in this beautiful property. It was perfect and secluded getaway to have a rest after a very busy year. We went to France, we saw Niagara Falls, we visited Washington and Chicago, we explored the caves of Indiana, we went to Alaska and mingled with brown bears in Hallo Bay, we crossed the Arctic Circle and we flew more then 30000 miles in the 2010. Our stay in Villa Miradouro was the icing on the traveller's cake. Madeira is beautiful and we will definitely come back again.

Perfect villa
Lovely villa in superb position.
The whole booking process and arrival went very smoothly. Nothing to worry about when booking this property.
The villa is as described if not better. Lovely view from the roof terrace. Well equipped kitchen for cooking.
Beautiful views from every window, even the bathrooms.
The best thing for me was the complete quiet and calm. No planes overhead, no traffic, no noisy neighbours. Maria very helpful.
Would be very happy to stay again

Our visit to villa mirador
We were a little disappointed by the decor and accessories. Everything was old and tired .
Broken pool furniture . Old furniture, uncomfortable beds . Basic kitchen utensils . For such a lovely property these things let it down .
Situated near to one of Madeiras famous Lookouts. Great location with marvelous views right out of your Bedroom, or from the Pool or the Kitchen. A really great Spot. Only some downturns have to be mentioned. The Kitchen Equipment is quit old and worn out. The House is situated down a steep slope. The owner doesn´t allow you to drive down. You have to carry your luggage up and down the slope. Same with your shoppings. You are not allowed to close the gate at the propertys entry which is allowing curious people from the nearby lookout to venture down to the House or to the pool ( happened twice to us ) In summary : a really great villa with only some downturns !!!!

Only the Location was stunning
The Villa could have been a 5 star experience. The location is incredible with unbelievable views and the peace and quiet of a country inn. However, as nice as the views and location were, the condition of the furnishings and accoutrements left a lot to be desired. The bed in the main bedroom needs to be replaced immediately. The kitchen was appointed with the bare minimum in terms of utensils and the outdoor furniture around the pool and on the balcony and decks needed replacement. Although the listing indicated that the home had a clothes dryer, it was inoperable and although the housekeeper was notified, no effort was made to fix it. The towels and linens were rough and worn. Rui, the property manager did not return VRBO email messages concerning questions about the Villa, so there were some surprises when we arrived. If not for the incredible location, this would be classified as a mediocre experience at best. It appears that the investors are more concerned with milking all the money out of the property instead of maintaining it to be the stunning place it could be.

We strongly disagree with Jane's review which appears to be retaliatory in nature due to inability to get the clothes dryer operational. Upon checking it by our staff, there was nothing wrong with it. All other claims are blown seriously out of proportion and completely unrealistic. The outside wooden furniture is replaced regularly due to weather conditions and the property is maintained to a very high standard.
Lovely private villa with 180 degree Atlantic view
On arrival we were very pleased with the quality of the villa, the private and secluded location and the stunning uninterrupted views of the Atlantic.
However, we had a few issues over the first few days, which included cockroaches in the kitchen drawers, our bedroom, and bathroom. We reported this, to both the housekeeper and the property manager, expecting a pest control company to arrive. Nothing happened. We also reported that the dishwasher had stopped working after three days, and despite promises to repair it nothing was ever done during the next three and a half weeks of our stay. We also reported that the oven door didn't close properly, and were told to raise the oven temperature. This resulted in the oven control knobs being too hot to touch. The general kitchen equipment was very poor. The lawned garden looked wonderful on arrival, but a month later when we left, the grass was up to 1ft high in places. The gates were fixed open so we could not stop two local stray dogs using the garden as a toilet. As compensation for these problems, we were offered a three night stay at another villa, which was very nice, but we assumed the issues at Villa Miradouro would be dealt with in our absence. This did not happen. Overall, it seems to us that there was a reluctance to spend money to properly deal with the issues, although Maria the housekeeper did her best and was extremely thorough and helpful.

Response from VrboOwner on 19 Aug 2023
What Rosie and Clive have experienced has been a string of bad luck as some of the equipment such as dishwasher failed during their stay. Since Madeira is heavily under construction it is almost impossible to get somebody to come and fix the machines. On the other hand, the dishwasher is only a few years old so we thought we will get a technician to fix it in time but it took weeks before he received the parts and fixed the dishwasher. We actually ended up buying another dishwasher in the meantime as well.
As for the cockroaches we never ever had any issues, even though this is a common problem on Madeira. But since the property location is away from everything and located in the middle of nature the cockroaches have always stayed away. It was a lone incident and we have thoroughly swept the place, removed all furniture and in the end found two of them. It was not an infestation of any sort and definitely not to call and fumigate the place. The situation has been dealt with and we did not have any problems since.
The grass is always cut when needed, but during the dry summer months it has to be left a bit longer.
The stray dogs situation has never happened before and was since dealt with. The area is otherwise fully fenced but they arrived during the front gate. We are working on changing the gate system so that it can be fully closed even when the car is parked inside.
It was just a mix of unfortunate incidents that happened with Rosie and Clive, but all points they mentioned have already been dealt with and resolved. It was just bad timing when it was hard to get the people, as well as a string of bad luck where everything that could go wrong went wrong at the same time.
We always try to go above and beyond for our guests and gladly spend money on continuous improvements and will continue to do so.
Wir waren im Januar 2024 im Haus.
Die gesamte Anlage ist gepflegt und sehr schön.
Kommunikation mit Rui und Maria war ausgezeichnet!
Im Haus findet man alles, was man braucht. Uns fehlte an nichts!
Wir bedanken uns herzlichst bei Rui und Maria für den Aufenthalt und Unterstützung in allen Fragen!
Liebe Grüße
Natalia und Arno
Wer es noch nicht weiß: MIRADOURO bedeutet im Portugisischen soviel wie "Aussichtspunkt".
Und genau das ist diese Villa: ein perfekter Aussichtsort direkt an der Steilküste. Die Betreuung durch Rui und Maria ist hervorragend (besser geht es nicht!).
Der Pool ist sehr groß und perfekt sauber - ebenso die komplette Villa: extrem grosszügig und extrem sauber!
Das BBQ-Haus (ja: es ist ein eigenes HAUS nur für das BBQ!!) ist einzigartig! Ich war schon in vielen grossen Villen aber sowas hab ich noch nie gesehen! Auch der Garten ist riesig und die eigenen Feigen- und Mangobäume tragen traumhafte Früchte, die man gerne verkosten darf (kann ich nur empfehlen ;-)
Alles in allem ein unglaublicher Luxusurlaub für Leute, die gerne abgescheiden, ruhig und selbstversorgt Urlaub machen.
Es gibt aber auch in kurzer Entferung (ca. 10 Min. mit dem Auto) einige gute Lokale falls man nicht selbst grillen oder kochen möchte.
Es war die schönste und bestausgestattete Villa, die wir bisher bewohnen durften.
Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!!!
Wir haben den Aufenthalt auf Madeira und in der Sonnenuntergangsvilla sehr genossen.
Meine Familie war bereits von ca. 17 Jahren auf dieser Insel urlauben und haben die Sonnenuntergangsvilla bereits damals (nur von aussen) gesehen und uns gewunschen dort ein mal unseren Urlaub zu verbringen.
Die Aussicht ist Traumhaft und wir haben sowohl Pool als auch die Ruhe genossen. Die Haustiere wie die Katze und die beiden Hunde sind sehr liebenswert und zutraulich.
Die Insel selbst hat sich in dieser Zeit doch sehr verändert und es ist vieles für den Tourismus geändert worden, ich sehe nicht alles als Vorteil. Der Preisunterschied auf der Insel ist enorm.
Zur Villa, sie ist von der Bauweise sehr schön - einige Dinge gehören repariert und instandgesetzt bzw. erneuert.
Schweren Herzens sind wir wieder abgereist, wir wären gerne länger geblieben.
Ohne einen Mietwagen nicht zu erreichen. Die gute Fee “Maria“ hilft wo sie kann. Der Pool ist arschkalt. Wenn ein beheizbarer Whirlpool vorhanden ist, kommen wir wieder.
Wer eine Location zum Erholen sucht und Einrichtungen wie Ballermann o.ä. grundsätzlich aus dem Weg geht, ist hier bestens aufgehoben.
Und...jeder Sonnenuntergang ist ein Spektakel für sich.
Great villa in a wonderful "away from it all" location. Communication with the owner was excellent and on site staff very friendly. If you want peace and quiet with fabulous views then this is the place for you.
Neben dem superschönen Objekt, welches man selbst für die schönen Inselausflüge nur ungern verlassen mag, hat uns die Betreuung durch Rui Agriao sehr geholfen- selbst nachts um halb drei lotste er uns nach verspäteter Ankunft zu Madeiras vielleicht einziger 24 h-offenen Tankstelle und ermöglichte den Checkin im Haus. Das ist Einsatz, vielen Dank nochmal! Achso, für alle Nespresso-Enthusiasten- es gibt eine Nespresso Maschine, die in der Hausbeschreibung nicht erwähnt ist ;-)
This property is amazing in every aspect. The views were superb at every angle of the house. The accommodations were very comfortable and welcoming.. The rental home and surrounding property was meticulously maintained and Rui was amazing on his efficiency. We loved this so much that we rebooked this house to this April and can’t wait to return to paradise.
Der weite Blick auf den kompletten Atlantik ist natürlich 1a mit Sternchen. Viel besser geht es sicherlich nicht!
Allerdings ist das Haus/Villa etwas in die Jahre gekommen und es wurden nötige Arbeiten nicht ausgeführt. Als Beispiel kann ich die Silikonfuge am Waschbecken im Badezimmer nennen. Die Hälfte fehlt komplett, die andere Hälfte ist einfach nur vergammelt. Wir hatten ein paar Tage sehr starken Regen, es tropfte an verschiedenen Stellen von der Decke. Die Mikrowelle ist sehr alt und auch was Geschirr und Küchenequitment angeht, könnte und sollte man einige Dinge austauschen. Für den Preis habe ich einfach etwas mehr erwartet und wurde somit etwas enttäuscht. Im großen und ganzen hatten wir trotzdem einen schönen Urlaub! Meines Erachtens nach sind die Bewertungen für das Objekt etwas zu positiv. Der Besitzer sollte wirklich ein paar Euro in Renovierung/Modernisierung stecken, damit der Aufenthalt dann auch wirklich perfekt ist. Maria, die Haushälterin, ist natürlich ein Schatz, keine Frage!
