The house is new and fully stocked. The owner is awesome and very gracious! We enjoyed our two weeks here a lot and will rent it again when we’re back. Great location too!

Beautiful house and location
This was a fantastic place to stay. It met all of our expectations for cleanliness, appearance, and amenities. All of the furnishings and household items were in great condition. The views are outstanding and there's nothing better than eating a meal on the patio with that sunset. The only downside for us was that the mattress was very firm.

Extraordinary experience
I have travelled a lot around the world over the last 25 years or so, staying mainly in numerous holiday flats. Many of them were good, some were excellent, but Searenity beats them all. I could list a few tiny points of criticism here too, but that would lead to a false overall impression when reading. All in all, it was the best stay in holiday accommodation I have ever had.

Sehr schönes Ferienhaus in guter Lage. Die Aussicht auf den Atlantik ist grandios. Hier kann man abschalten und den Urlaub genießen 😌
Wir waren 12Tage Anfang März hier und können das Ferienhaus ohne schlechtes Gewissen weiter empfehlen. Wir wurden von Anfang bis Ende bestens von Rita betreut.

Wunderbares Ferienhaus in toller Lage
Das Haus verfügt über alles was das Herz begehrt.
Eine super ausgestattete Küche, bequeme Betten, großzügige Duschbäder, einen großen und bequemen Wohn- Essbereich, eine geräumige Terrasse, einen schönen Pool - und einen traumhaften Blick über den mit Bananen bewachsenen Hang auf den Atlantik.
Wir waren zu Dritt und haben uns rundherum sehr wohl gefühlt, konnten nach den Ausflügen über die Insel perfekt im Pool und auf der Terrasse entspannen und den Sonnenuntergang genießen.
Gastgeberin Rita hat uns herzlich empfangen und nicht nur einen liebevoll zusammengestellten Willkommenskorb mit heimischen Spezialitäten vorbereitet, sondern auch noch selbstgebackenes Brot, Kuchen und Früchte aus ihrem Garten vorbeigebracht.
Es hat uns so gut gefallen, dass wir noch während des Urlaubs den nächsten Aufenthalt gebucht haben.
Absolut empfehlenswert!

Wonderful time on Madeira
We had a wonderful in Rita‘s place on Madeira. Her communication, tips and recommendations were on point.
On top of that the place offers everything you need to have a good time. The pool and view is insane and the flat offers everything you need.
Rita is such a wonderful person. We even received a orange cake from her as a gift.
I can highly recommend this place - Dominik

Wonderful Getaway Place
The stay at Searenity Home II was wonderful. The house is beautiful, with modern furniture and equipment to meet your everyday needs. Whether you want to prepare a packed lunch for a hike in the mountains, have a simple barbecue or cook a 3 course dinner to enjoy while watching the sunset, this place has it all. Even if you don't feel like doing anything at all, the inviting deck with its swimmingpool and oceanview has got you covered.
Above all the hospitality of the host Rita, with her friendly personality and recommendations of what there is to do around Arco Da Calheta, was amazing and topped our perfect stay off nicely. We are already looking forward to our next stay at Searenity Vacation Homes.

Best stay ever
Especially in this corona time, we were very happy to to stay in this very very clean house were everything we needed was provided, and we felt very welcome by the kindness of our host Rita. She gave us a warm welcome, was available on any moment, gave us good advises, there was a welcome basket with specialties from Madeira, wine, fruits and water and she even surprised us with a home baked orangecake!
The house was really beautiful, the view amazing and the pool very nice - although a bit too cold for my husband...
Anyway: THE perfect stay for us!

Wow
Wow wow wow. What a stunning place. We stayed for five nights over Easter with our two year old daughter. The villa was even better than the pictures. Spotlessly clean in every room, with plenty of storage but also with all the things you might need on a holiday. Rita and her son were lovely hosts and we were very grateful for the starter pack of food they bought us since the shops were closed for Easter. The view from the terrace is divine. Even on a cold or wet day, you can sit inside and see the private pool and the sea beyond from the lounge and both bedrooms. Evenings on the terrace with a glass of wine were blissful, and Rita provided some wood so that we could cook dinner on the outdoor bbq. The location is great for the little beach at Calheta (which also has a good playground if you have young children) and for Funchal (about a 30-40 minute easy drive). You do need a car, but assuming you have one, I would not hesitate to recommend this beautiful place.

Wunderschön
Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt in Madeira. Das Haus war wunderschön - alles was man brauchte war da. So ein sauberes und geschmackvolles Haus, hatten wir bisher noch nie gehabt. Der Check in klappte hervorragend. Rita und Ihre Kollegin, die uns dort begrüssten waren sehr sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Kommunikation klappte reibungslos. Wir können das Haus nur weiter empfehlen und wollen auf jeden Fall nochmal wieder kommen. Danke
