The hotel is in a great location, just 5 minutes from the airport, making it very convenient. We asked for early check-in, and the staff kindly arranged it for us. The breakfast was simple but tasty, and the coffee was excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was cleaned daily, with fresh towels and toiletries (shower gel and shampoo) provided. The beds were new and very comfortable, and the gentle sound of the ocean outside the window added to the relaxing atmosphere. The large terrace with an ocean view is an ideal place to enjoy a glass of Madeira wine while taking in the stunning scenery We would definitely stay here again!

The host was very nice, he helped me park the car, and was always available. When I had troubles with a snoring and sick room partner, he offered me a different room. The rooms are clean and minimalistic. The bathroom was also clean. The beds are not so comfortable but they do for the purpose of sleeping. I was there in summer and had a light blanket but it was enough because it was hot outside. The location is great. It’s next to the airport, there is a beach down the road and a spot where you can also swim. I saw many jump in the water and swim there. Also restaurants and a supermarket nearby. But food inside the room is not allowed. So important to eat before you go to the room. I rented a car so I was flexible to move through the island. And at night it was nice to return to a spot which is safe and easy to reach. look, it’s not a resort. It’s for a purpose :). The purpose of sleeping and that’s it. It has wlan (network), it has a shared bathroom, it has a bed in a shared room. You spend the day in the island and at evening return there and sleep :). It’s good for arrival and departure day. Or days where you are nearby anyways. Also there is a costal hike which is not far from there. Best part is that the host is very nice. He respond fast. He helps with problems and is very polite. I like to support people like this because it’s genuine :).

We have stayed in Madeira in different places and this was by far the best one we have had! It was super duper clean, fully equipped and the host was extremely helpful and very kind and put fresh vegetables and fruits of her garden in the kitchen so we can all have them! They were delicious! I can whole heartedly recommend this stay!!!

Fabulous little home in the hills, off the beaten track. The terrace has lovely views in the evening and it’s everything you need for a private, comfy stay. The hosts were so friendly and accommodating. We stayed for two nights and it was a great base from which to explore Madeira’s central hikes.

If you're staying in Madeira, this residence is an excellent option! It was very clean and spacious with all of its amenities accurately described in the rental posting. While it's up in the mountains, grocery stores, bars/cafes, and a gas station are all only a short drive away. There is a breathtaking viewpoint of the mountains nearby and even the view from your back patio & front patio are great! The few requests and questions we had were promptly addressed by the host who was superbly accommodating. Enjoy Madeira!
