"A very nice place to stay as a base whilst visiting around the beautiful island. Its not far from Funchal by BOLT taxi service and close to airport too, so not difficult to travel to the main centre."

"Eine sehr schöne Lage, aber das eine Zimmer, das wir hatten, sollte unbedingt renoviert/repariert werden. Dann ist es dort bestimmt angenehm zu übernachten und die Gegend zu genießen."

"Nice, quiet place. Do not need aircondition in October as we were. Only two single beds option. Good transportation, close to highway. Layout of apartament very nice. Yes, I recomend this place."

"The place is very nice the view was fantastic"

"Remote location but a great view. Problem-free arrival and check-in (despite a delay on our part). The room was clean and equipped with the most necessary. Unfortunately, the room was cleaned only once during our stay and was extremely damp. Many of the advertised services (e.g. breakfast, restaurant, etc.) were no longer offered. If you do not have high demands and only need the accommodation as a place to sleep and explore the island the rest of the time, it is sufficient. The...

"Excellent property, with an amazing veranda. We had an great time here and hopefully will be back."

"The night before I booked the Vrbo as I was flying in from the United States and needed a place to stay for one night before going to the resort. I’m less the 8 hours I found out my plane reservation got switched. I email and asked if I could get at least a portion of my money back and he said no. Eight hours before he had no one, so it wasn’t like I blocked others from coming. I just felt he was rude and not at all flexible."

"Carolina was a great host! The place was clean and so peaceful up on the mountain side near the airport. Under 30 min drive to the main trails or Funchal. The only downside is the roads leading up to the property were quite steep and narrow-you definitely have to be a decent driver. Cannot wait to stay there again. "

"Everything was perfect. The house won us over from the very first moment: clean, spacious, and incredibly welcoming. The three bedrooms are a dream – the beds are super comfortable, just perfect for a restful sleep. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need, just like home! We had an amazing time and will definitely come back with great joy! Wholeheartedly recommended!"

"Great location"

Amazing garden

"Wonderfull hotel with amazing garden. Nice staff. Clean. Very good breakfast. We were not that impressed with the dinners we had on the hotel, we prefered the other restaruants just outside the hotel instead. Be prepared for many stairs and some steep pathways, as the rest of the island. "

2/5 Poor

"No parking in the resort, only 7 minutes away walking uphill, most uncomfortable with suitcases even if you dropped off the suitcases you would still need to walk the distance and pay. I dislike separate beds in a couples room Tough toilet paper No shampoo conditioner supplied, only a kind of soap 1 small chocolate bar in the room, for 2.5 euros, not fun or enough Receptionist quite unkind, makes no effort to be kind or friendly "

5/5 Excellent

A beautiful stay!

"After landing in Madeira, we headed straight to the property and were delighted to arrive. The surrounding area and grounds are beautiful and have all the facilities you could need including the pool (albeit, a bit chilly for this time of year), massage area and other areas to relax. Our room was incredibly clean, comfortable and very informative about the area and property facilities. Our favourite aspect was Berta’s breakfast. She is a wonderful and warm woman, who would go above and beyond to help and cater to the guests needs. The food was delicious and set us up for the hikes ahead! "
