Home in Campanario
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 50 reviewsNew Attached Home Stunning Ocean Views D
Daniela's place was perfect! We particularly liked the view from the balcony with side sea views and the roof terrace overlooking the sea and back into the mountains. As a welcome there was a small surprise with local products. Communication and key exchange was very easy. We can only recommend the apartment and will definitely be back.
Home in Corujeira
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 91 reviewsVilla Golden Charm
The stay was very nice. Great environment, easily accessible by car in sports mode. We have the pool and the view incl. Sunsets enjoyed very much. Orlanda was at the house at 3am upon arrival at night and gave us the key. Within one night and one day, the pool was nicely heated up. Highly recommend!
Condo in Gaula
4.95 out of 5 average rating, 75 reviewsGuesthouse Olival
The place was even better than described, there was nothing missing. The communication with Dina and Paulo was perfect, it was always very responsive and the two were extremely friendly. From the property you have a perfect, unrestricted view of the Atlantic Ocean and the airport. Upon our arrival, little nice touches of the two were waiting for us. It was very clean throughout the place. The property is very modern. There are brochures in the accommodation, with activities that you can do in Madeira, among other things. The parking space in the place was easy to reach and was very beneficial. Overall, we can recommend this place with its landlords to everyone. The accommodation was perfect and contributed to the perfect holiday in Madeira.
Home in São Vicente
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 117 reviewsSea House
Constantino has a fantastic place. We spent 5 days here. The location is excellent, with a natural pool right next to the house, and an easy walk to Sao Vicente. Everything was spotless, and Constantino had thought of everything. There were even rock shoes and fins for the guests to use! Constantino himself was extremely friendly, and gave some great local recommendations. We'll definitely be recommending this place.
Villa in Arco da Calheta
5 out of 5 average rating, 51 reviewsVilla Acacia- Spectacular Ocean view & heated pool
We treated ourselves to a luxury getaway and this space did not disappoint. The views are incredible, we had everything we needed to create an incredible vacation. The house was even bigger and better than we could have hoped. Tanja was incredibly helpful and responsive. Follow her instructions to get there. We were first timers to Madeira and it won’t be our last visit. As a side note, we found the beds, linen and rooms so comfortable and quiet. Nothing is missing with this one.
Condo in Gaula
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 29 reviewsOcean Cliff Apartment
We enjoyed our stay at the apartment. The view is identical to the pictures shown. Everything you need is available in the apartment, but partly in a small number of pieces. The only drawback to the apartment is the planes, as they fly directly over the apartment. During the day you don't get any of this, but in the evening it can be a bit annoying. Communication with Juan was easy and fast. That was very positive. We are happy to recommend this accommodation!
Home in Estreito da Calheta
4.85 out of 5 average rating, 47 reviewsTia Maria Cottage
We stayed in Juan's beautiful cottage for a week and felt completely comfortable! Everything was sparkling clean, the kitchen is very well equipped and nothing is missing. The view from the living room and from the balcony to the sea is beautiful. We would choose this place again any time we come to Madeira.
Rental unit in Arco Da Calheta
4.9 out of 5 average rating, 40 reviewsA&M House
we loved the location - it is a drive away from the main attractions which was great for us as we enjoyed the peace and quiet Sandra was super helpful and we had no problems during the stay the flat provides everything you need, not a high end place but we didn't care about the fancy design -everything was clean and up to date
