Although it rained we had a lovely time, we swam in the pool
everyday, spent time in the sauna and explored the island by car. A
very positive family holiday.

Altogether a great place. I just would add that the owner
helped us rent a car with a local vendor and great conditions after
we did not get the one we had booked.

Great location, we loved using the swimming pool and pool
table. The dart board had been removed which was slightly
disappointing but not the end of the world. Sauna is small (ok for
2 people, more would be a squash) but we made good use of it! Taxis
into Funchal don't cost much, we would recommend staying here if
you're in a group.

Ein tolles Haus in wunderschöner Lage mit vielen
Möglichkeiten. Unbezahlbarer Blick aufs Meer und den
Sonnenuntergang. Gut ausgestattete Küche, aber teilweise in die
Jahre gekommen. Die Matratzen waren unbequem.

We LOVED our stay! The pool was so relaxing and it was in such
a peaceful location. There is a lovely view of the ocean and a
beach just across the road which you can access via cable car. The
games room was so much fun! Would definitely recommend!!

utterly superb airbnb. the space available for use is massive.
we were a group of 7 on an Mtb holiday. the garage was a dream
space for bike security and maintenance. the upstairs games room
was used as a twin bed room with more than enough space. ample
bathrooms for the large group . Well stocked kitchen and great
dining areas. fantastic views from the pool area . the hosts were
very flexible and accommodating the several changes I made in the
run up to the vacation for both length of stay and numbers of
people staying a truly brilliant Airbnb perfect for large groups
.

Beautiful villa, very spacious, great outdoor area and pool,
we had it heated to 24 degrees which we found to be quite cold (it
was February though), we still managed to use it but would
recommend getting it heated to a higher temperature of going in
winter months. The area was lovely, fantastic views including the
Christi Rei looking over us! The local restaurants are in walking
distance, although it is quite a long up hill trek, and they are
very reasonably priced. I'd definitely recommend downloading the
bolt app for getting around Madiera, they are cheaper than taxis
and easy to use.

Wonderful hosts who were incredibly friendly and helpful. They
even provided fruit, bread, coffee and milk for the first morning
which was lovely. The house is spacious and as shown on the
pictures. It has a lot to offer (sauna, pool, billiard..) and the
outdoor area is amazing. The view on the ocean is incredible. The
beds are definitely more on the harder side and the furnishing
partially has gotten a bit long in the tooth. However, we really
enjoyed our stay and thank our hosts again for their
hospitality.

I went to this house with two friends. Our Madeira booked a
taxi transfer to the house for us, which was very nice. When we
arrived at the house the owners were waiting for us to show us
around. They also got us some food and drinks for the first night
which was much appreciated. The house was absolutely beautiful, and
matched all descriptions from the advertisement. It looked even
bigger and more beautiful than on the pictures. The pool was
amazing and the view was stunning. The house has everything you
need and there were dozens of towels and lots and lots of crockery
and pots and pans. The house is located next to a very beautiful
viewing point next to the sea. The area is amazing and quiet. It is
recommended to hire a car when you want to explore the island
because the roads are super steep. On about 10-15 minutes walking
distance (uphill) is a street with some restaurants and a
supermarket, which is very nice. 10/10 would come back again
sometime.

We had a great time here. The house is very comfortable
and has everything you need. We enjoyed the swimming pool &
game room and took advantage of the close proximity to the ocean /
cafe / cristo rei. The cable cars were a big highlight! The hosts
are lovely and very responsive too. Thank you again for hosting
us!

The villa is in a wonderful position for exploring the
island with great local bar across the road and restaurant on the
beach accesssed by cable car .A short but steep walk , 10 minutes
only to a variety of local restaurants what were very good and
fresh bread and small supermarkets We did not need to hire a car as
used Bolt taxi app that worked very well and much cheaper than
taxis Fabulous pool and very helpful with check in and all
arrangements Wonderful view over the sea and Christo Rei statue
Quiet residential area

We had a fantastic time at the villa. There is a steep
path to reach it but it is more than worth it. The pool, the views
and the house are all amazing. The only thing we regret is not
staying longer. Communication with the host Bruno was effective and
he sorted out one issue we had very quickly. We hope we van visit
again in the future.

Great house and really good space! Brilliant location very
near the beach and the view is incredible. Lots of fun to be had in
the games room :) It's quite a steep walk to the little town but we
actually didn't mind it. Would definitely stay again

14 Tage Aufenthalt
Das Haus ist sehr schön, allerdings ein wenig hellhörig. Die
Türen sollten unbedingt mal eingestellt werden, da Sie teilweise am
Boden schleifen undman dies speziell in der Nacht im ganzen Haus
hört. Matratzen sind sehr hart (aber besser wie zu weich) Ansonsten
ist das Haus sehr zu empfehlen.

Everything perfect!
The communication before was very good, and from check-in to
check-out it was just perfect. The house is perfect for 4-6
persons, everything you need is existing. The view perfect, pool is
nice, BBQ-place cozy, the play-room cool. Overall satisfying, we
would like to come back :-)

Such a nice place
This house has everything you can ask for to feel at home.
Wonderful view from the pool/terrace and you can have fun in the
gameroom. It is a "little" bit up hill to walk to shops and
restaurants. We didn't have rented a car, but it was easy to make a
deal with the taxidrivers to make a stop at the supermarket and get
the shopping done. We can recommend restaurant Frango da Guia in
Garajau - and don't forget to visit restaurant do Forte in Funchal.
Our daughter and son in law had a great dive with divecenter at the
beach right in front of the house.

Communication was very fast and always friendly. House and Pool
extremely well cleaned. Nice neighborhood, breathtaking view, small
beach very close, restaurants and shops not far, but steep uphill
in the village.

The place is beautifully situated across from a popular
tourist spot. The views from the pool are magical! We loved the
outdoor lounging, swimming, and the fun games room. The hosts are
friendly and quick to respond to the minor issues we had. It's a
hike to the shops and restaurants and we found we needed to rent a
car to make life easier. The house suited us perfectly. The island
is gorgeous!!!

Relaxing hiking holiday
We had a group of six people, my wife, brother and sister
as well as two postgrowth representatives (both already adults).
During the week we visited the Levadas and nature around the
island. Botanical garden and Funchal also belonged to place of
excursion. The location of the apartment was excellent for this
purpose.

Great villa in great area!
We stayed at this villa with friends in October 2018 and had a
fabulous time. We all loved it. The villa is perfect and is
equipped with everything you need for a really comfortable stay. It
is very clean and has a great layout, with living area, kitchen and
bedrooms on one level. Having 3 individual bathrooms was great and
there were plenty of towels and extra bedding if needed. The pool
and outdoor areas are wonderful. There are 6 loungers and an
outdoor table which was great to eat al fresco! There is also a BBQ
at the back of the property. We had the pool heated which I would
recommend, as we were able to use it every day. There is a great
games room upstairs which is ideal for families and friends. There
is a sofa bed up there too, but we didn't need it. The owners
Susana and her husband were so helpful and easy to work with and so
were the property managers at Our Madeira. They all made the whole
booking process and stay really easy. Although it is an uphill walk
into Garajua, it is fine, and only takes 10-15 minutes and there
are lots of restaurants, bars and ice-cream places to visit as a
reward after walking there - then it is all downhill on your way
back! There are plenty of supermarkets in Garajua too. A couple of
nights we got takeaway food from Tourigalo, which was reasonable
and very tasty. Right across the road from the villa is a little
bar if you want a quick drink and snack or take the cable car down
to the beach and try the restaurant there, it was great. For a
couple of euros a local bus will take you into Funchal in about
15-20 minutes so you don't always have to drive either. Plenty of
taxis in the area too. I wholeheartedly recommend this villa and
hope to return in the future.

Perfect Family Villa
Our first visit to Madeira was made unforgettable by the luxury and comfort of this villa. Extremely well appointed, it contained all that our family could have wished for; large communal areas, a huge games room, a gym and a lovely pool and poolside area. It is situated across the road from the coast with a small shopping area a 10 minute walk that also contained a number of restaurants.

Sehr geräumiges und zweckmäßiges Ferienhaus
Das sehr geräumige Ferienhaus in bester Lage (Meerblick, gute
Einkaufsmöglichkeiten) hat 3 schöne Schlafzimmer mit jeweils
eigenem Bad mit Dusche und/oder Badewanne, zusätzlich zwei
Schlafgelegenheiten auf den Speicher, Dort auch Tischfußball und
Billiard. Zahlreiche geräumige Schränke sind vorhanden. Die Küche
ist zweckmäßig und vielfältig eingerichtet, eigentlich fehlt
nichts. Die Qualität der Messer und mancher Gerätschaften könnte
besser sein, wer viel selbst zubereiten will sollte sein eigenes
scharfes Messer mitbringen. Auch das Sofa im Wohnzimmer ist sicher
nicht das neueste und etwas durchgesessen, aber das war es auch
schon mit der Kritik. Das Schwimmbad war sauber, lässt sich nachts
einfach abdecken. In einem Fitnessraum im Keller gibt es eine
funktionierende Sauna, ein Laufband und Punchingball. Sitzplätze
und Tische drinnen wie draußen sind zur Genüge vorhanden, auch ein
Grillplatz und eine große Garage sowie eine Außendusche am Pool.
W-Lan funktionierte schnell und ohne Störungen. Wir haben uns zu
viert sehr wohl gefühlt, kleine Mängel wurden sofort beseitigt. Das
Haus ist sicher auch für Gruppen/Familien mit 6 oder 8 Personen
geeignet.

La villa était en tout point conforme à l'annonce et nous y avons passé un très agréable séjour. La situation est idéale près de Funchal. Nous nous sommes sentis comme chez nous. Nous avons bien profités de la piscine dont l'eau était à 28°. Merci à Susana pour son accueil.

Everything you could ask for and more!
Nice to find a place exactly as represented online, plus more! We had a location that was close to all amenities but also felt so exclusive and private. Our family gatherings were well attended and loved by all guests invited to many celebration parties! Villa comes equipped with everything needed to host company. We asked for the pool to be heated (recommend if you like a warmer swim). The pool was well enjoyed by all and made our stays at home unbelievable! Our favorite beach was just below the Villa and one of the most famous attractions was my bedroom view! Cristo Rei do Garajau! The drive under Villa garage and remote gate felt very secure. From the full kitchen, laundry, games room and each room having access to a private bath made our stay so very enjoyable! The owner was always responsive on any requests made. The cleaning staff were very friendly and helpful (loved cleaning day!). Any extra cleanup or prep for our gatherings was done amicably with the cleaning staff all arranged! Such a stress free stay!

SPLENDID VILLA
Magnificent villa, hyper equipped, according to description. We
enjoyed the sea view, and the location of the house, close to
FUNCHAL. Everything was perfect, especially the games (billiards,
babby foot, ping pong ...). Our next trip to Madeira will
definitely be in this villa.

Villa mit vielen Möglichkeiten, gute Lage
Die Villa bietet viele Möglichkeiten für eine junge Familie.
Hervorragende Ausstattung und guter Service. Die Lage für Ausflüge
an die vielen schönen und beeindruckenden Ziele auf der Insel ist
ideal. Da die Villa langsam in die Jahre kommt, gibt es keinen
fünften Stern. Im Ort (steil bergauf) findet man Geschäfte und
Restaurants. Steil bergab gibt es einen beeindruckenden
(Stein-)Strand. Madeira ist top!
