Villa was clean and comfortable and in a great location with an amazing view. The pool was lovely and one of the best we’ve had for cleanliness and not being too strong with chemicals. Alberto was super helpful and nothing was too much trouble and we will definitely be returning to this villa on our next trip to Madeira, highly recommended.

Stunning little property

Location was superb for exploring the island as well as evening walks. The local cafe's were great for snacks and poncha! We made use of the pool and garden room most days. Views from the villa were lovely and it was very quiet and peaceful. Alberto was a fantastic host - very responsive. Would definitely recommend.

Alberto is a very friendly host and was extremely attentive during our stay. It’s an amazing location and the pool area is very beautiful as is the inside barbecue room. The only slight drawback was that several of the tiles had chipped off the pool and my youngest cut his foot on them. Also be aware that heating the pool and air-conditioning is an extra charge that doesn’t show up on VRBO.

Gutes Ferienhaus mit sehr freundlichem Vermieter

Alberto ist ein sehr freundlicher und zuvorkommender Vermieter. Er hat realistische Vorstellungen und viel Erfahrung bei der Vermietung von Ferienhäusern. Auf unsere extrem verspätete Ankunft hat er trotz seiner Arbeitszeiten Rücksicht genommen und uns noch in der Nacht den Schlüssel übergeben.Das Haus selbst ist gut in Schuss, könnte jedoch an der ein oder anderen Stelle ein paar Schönheitsreparaturen gebrauchen. Die Lage ist wirklich ruhig und die Aussicht wunderschön. Das Ferienhaus ist insgesamt ein Preis-Leistungs-Gewinner.

A great base for exploring Madeira

We had a lovely stay here. The villa was great for us as it's quite high up (great views) and was also slightly cooler. Good and clean, nice pool, and friendly, helpful owner.

Une parenthèse enchantée

Nous avons séjourné dans ce logement durant une semaine début avril.Maria et Alberto sont de très bons hôtes, ils sont arrangeant pour l'heure d'arrivée lorsqu'il n'y a pas eut de locateurs avant. Nous avons pu accéder au logement à 12H. Ils restent disponible durant tout le séjour au moindre problème, ils sont très réactifs.Le logement est très sympathique, il dispose de tout le nécessaire pour le séjour. La vue est magnifique, a mis chemin entre mer et montagne, le silence y règne.Plein de chose à faire à proximité.La piscine est un petit plus mais nous n'avons pas pu en profiter à cause de la météo.Il y a aussi une terrasse couverte avec BBQ qui est très utile pour les jours de pluie.Merci à Maria et Alberto de nous avoir accueilli.

SEJOUR AGREABLE A MADERE

Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Maria et Alberto. La maison correspond à l'annonce. Nous avons bien profité de la piscine chauffée. Nous avons loué la voiture d'Alberto. Il est venu nous chercher à l'aéroport et nous a raccompagné à la fin de notre séjour. Belle île à découvrir grâce à de nombreuses randonnées. Nous sommes restés une quinzaine afin de profiter pleinement de ce formidable environnement.

Wonderful Madeira.

Modern, spacious well designed property in a quiet location with ample facilities for a comfortable self catering holiday. Surrounded by magnificent mountainous scenery, we enjoyed a months stay in February, and were fortunate to have good weather on 26 of our 28 days stay. Alberto and Maria are lovely people who care about their guests, communication throughout was excellent, we hired a car at the airport and the satnav link Alberto provided took us straight to the property where he was waiting to greet us.This was our fourth visit to the beautiful island of Madeira and probably the best, it left us wanting more. The property is located approximately a ten minute drive from the town of Calheta where you will find a Marina and a good selection of restaurants, there is also a Pingo Doce supermarket that is open seven days a week until 10pm each day 👍😎

Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Objekt ist sauber und gut eingerichtet. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Sie sind jederzeit erreichbar ud reagieren sofort. Für die Erkundung der Umgbeung benötigt man ein Fahrzeug. Wir haben dabei das Angebot der Vermieter genutzt und das war sehr praktisch. Aus unserer Sicht empfehlenswert.
