There are many restaurants within walking distance and parking is very inexpensive and easy in front. Nice to be away from the city but still close to visit as needed, would recommend for a relaxing stay!"

There were issues with the room but we were kindly offered alternatives. Breakfast was included and you couldn't eat enough. The grounds were impressively level given the graduated levels of Maderia's landscape."

10/10 Excellent

"The house exceeded my expectations; the pictures on the site do not do it justice. It is beautiful, with calm surroundings that provide a peaceful atmosphere.The place was immaculate, and Joana and her family made us feel welcome, as if we were part of their family. They were always ready to help, and I can't thank them enough. They definitely deserve a "Best Host" award!The kitchen is well-equipped and modern. I live in the United Kingdom and was initially worried about cooking. However, upon arriving at the property, I was blown away. It truly felt like a home away from home.What can I say about the location? It was peaceful and beautiful, surrounded by mountains, and the views were exceptional.Two large supermarkets are just a 10-minute walk away, and they are very affordable. I found delicious, budget-friendly food at Pingo Doce Canteen. I definitely recommend visiting if you’re like me and on a budget!The stunning beaches are only about a 15-minute walk away. There are two beaches to choose from. The people in the area are friendly and welcoming. We really enjoyed our stay. The location is a bit hilly, but Madeira is built on mountains, so you will get fit and lean during your holiday.Thank you, Joana, and please send my regards to your family! Mountains, I can assure you that you will get fit and lean by the time your holiday is over.Thank you, Joana, and please send my regards to your family!"
