Nelson is a great host! All was perfect: online contact, great list of activities and recommended restaurants, veeeery warm welcome and beautiful house with amazing ocean view, exotic garden and very nice pool. The place is very cozy, quiet and allows to relax fully.

Thank you, Rafal, Dominika, Alicja, and Michal, for your kind comment.
It's great to know that you, a wonderful and super friendly family, were happy here in Madeira and at Stone House, a beautiful window overlooking the sea.
I appreciate your visit and hope to have the pleasure of seeing you again in the near future.
See you then.
Sehr netter Vermieter. Die Wohnung hat einen super Blick. Trotz schlechtem Wetter haben wir die Zeit genossen.

Thank you Antje for your kind comment.
It was a great pleasure to have you at Stone House.
You were exemplary, so it will always be an honor to welcome you to one of my homes.
Come back whenever you can. You will always be very welcome!
Until next time!
João a été un hôte 5 étoiles ! Très compréhensif, très attentif et plein de bons conseils. La maison est idéale pour 4, bien équipée avec une vue magnifique sur l'océan, le musée d'art contemporain et les jardins en terrasses de Calheta. Le jardin commun aux 3 logements sur plusieurs niveaux dispose de plusieurs endroits ou se poser et admirer la vue et d'une agréable piscine.Alors oui, la salle de douche est un peu petite mais on est dans une maison ancienne rénovée, pleine de charme. Et oui, la route pour y accéder est sinueuse et étroite mais on est à Madère et ici, c'est comme ça partout Bref, une très bonne expérience pour nous 4 qui nous a donné envie de revenir à Madère !

Vous avez été formidables, d'une gentillesse et d'un professionnalisme exemplaires ! Vous serez toujours les bienvenus à Madère et chez moi.
À bientôt !
Schönes Haus in toller Lage und toller Aussicht. Strand und Restaurants sind auch zu Fuss erreichbar, wobei diese 100 HM unterhalb des Hauses liegen. Der Gastgeber hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen. Wir würden das Haus nochmals buchen.

Sehr schönes Haus mit tollen Ausblick auf das Meer. Vormittags liegt die Terrasse angenehm im Schatten zum Chillen / Ausruhen. Schnuckeliges Haus auf 2 Etagen mit Pool für 3 Häuser. Dann gibt es auch noch einen traumhaften Garten mit Blick auf das Meer, der Schatten und Sonne bietet. Sehr sympathischer und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber (Nelson), von dem es ggf auch süße Bananen aus dem eigenen Garten gibt. Winziger Unannehmlichkeit: wer größer als 2m ist muss in Erdgeschoss Kopf einziehen
