Aug 9, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sehr komfortables Haus für 6 Personen Das Haus ist sehr großzügig geschnitten und aufgrund der perfekten Aufteilung mit drei Schlafzimmern und drei Ensuite Bädern perfekt für 6 Personen geeignet. Es gibt einen großzügigen Wohn-Essbereich und eine hervorragend ausgestattete Küche mit Induktionsherd. Draußen gibt es genügend Liegen und auch vier gemütliche Sitzgelegenheiten sowie einen großen, Grill und genügend Holz für tolle Barbequeabende. Die Kommunikation mit Joana war angenehm und die wöchentliche Zwischenreinigung mit Handtuch- und Wäschewechsel hat uns ebenfalls sehr gut gefallen. Wir haben auch kurz den Besitzer kennengelernt, er war ebenfalls sehr sympatisch. Im Juli/August kann es heiß auf Madeira werden und in den Schlafzimmern wird es dann schnell warm. Eigentlich kein Problem, denn man könnte einfach nachts die Fenster offen lassen und die Räume wären optimal belüftet. Dies ist aber leider nicht möglich, weil man dann von Mücken gestochen wird (wir hatten jeder über 30 Mückenstiche und es gibt keine Mückennetze) und der Nachbarhahn kräht ab 6:00 Uhr morgens laut und unentwegt. Beides (Mücken und Nachbarhahn) haben die Vermieter selbstverständlich nicht zu verantworten. Mit Repellent und Ohrstöpseln haben wir uns gut abgeholfen. Worüber wir uns aber wirklich geärgert haben war die Aussicht. Die Fotos in der Annonce sind sehr geschickt aufgenommen, denn man kann auf keinem der Fotos das große Hotel (mit mindestens 8 Etagen und Rooftop-Pool) sehen, welches unmittelbar mit dutzenden Balkonen in Richtung der Villa im direkten Sichtfeld zum Meer liegt. Es ist einfach unserer Meinung nach nicht in Ordnung, das man diese erhebliche Einschränkung auf den Fotos so darstellt, als wäre die Sicht ungetrübt. Gerade wenn man als Urlauber viel Wert auf Privatsphäre und auf eine freie Sicht legt, sollte man sich dessen bewusst sein. ##### Dariusch M.

From the reservation to the handover everything worked great. Joana is just great, she communicates proactively and is very helpful and responsive, big compliment! Every time again with pleasure... ##### Kuno V. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Burton R.

Our grandchildren loved the pool and the adults loved the views. It is well equipped, clean and comfortable. We found it easy to walk downhill to the shops. It would be a steep walk getting back but there are several taxi ranks in town and that’s how we returned. If we return to Madeira we would happily book it again. ##### Burton R.

It has lovely gardens and a nice pool with good garden furniture. It also has some lovely views and it is not too far to walk to some good restaurants and bars. However sadly all of this great stuff is let down by the constant noise from the building work on the adjacent property with constant drilling, banging and other construction noise from 8am every day. It is certainly not the peaceful quiet location advertised! ##### michele l. Stayed 10 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arne B.

Jolie vue sur la mer et Funchal. Bien située. Piscine chauffée avec supplément qui a permis aux enfants d'y passer des heures. Locataires à l'écoute et arrangeants. Attention accès à la maison non adapté aux personnes à mobilité réduite, il faut marcher et c'est très pentu comme sur toute l'île. Construction d'une maison à coté qui a fait un peu de bruit certains jours mais sinon c'est calme. Très bon séjour sur une magnifique île. ##### Valerie W.

It is well designed, spacious, well equipped and has a great layout that allowed you to eat, sleep, swim and relax with the minimum of fuss. There were only two of us in the villa but even with 6 there would have been plenty of room. The bedrooms were a generous size. It was as per the photographs . The pool was warm and a pleasure to swim in. The kitchen was very well stocked with anything you might think you’d need, and stuff you may not have though of. We didn’t use the bbq but that looked more than adequate. There was a welcome pack and plenty of information in the guidebook. The property is in a residential area with lots of private parking. We had chosen not to hire a car and this did mean plenty of walking into Funchal, and back. Not impossible but for ease of shopping and if you want to explore more widely a car would be useful. It was generally a private and peaceful location, aside from some neighbourhood dogs and a cockerel, the peace made their conversations more noticeable I suppose. Overall we judged the Villa to be comfortable and classy. ##### Graeme J. Stayed 7 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael F., Uk Feb 7, 2019 #### First Class Accommodation This is a beautiful contemporary villa where every detail has been carefully considered. Everything you could possibly need for an enjoyable hassle free stay has been included. We particularly loved the pool, which is possibly the warmest we have ever swum in, and the fabulous views over Funchal bay. Despite not hiring a car, we managed to get around quite easily. The No. 45 bus approx. 200 meters walk behind the villa runs every 20-30 minutes into Funchal, and a taxi back from the Lido area was around 7euros. Also for tours around the island try Madeira-Island Taxis, very reasonable at 60euros for a 4-5 hour private tour. We had wonderful support from Clementina and Rui (the owners) throughout our stay, who were very generous hosts. Highly recommended. ##### Michael F.
