Fantastic Calming Sea Views

What a fantastic calming sea view this little cottage offers! We loved waking up to the sounds of the waves crashing down below & watching the gorgeous sunset from the privacy of our patio. The location feels like we truly are on our own little island. Unless we drove out into the villages/towns, some days we wouldn't see another person. So peaceful! Bruno met us at check-in & kindly guided us to the cottage. He showed us where things were located around the cottage which we found very helpful. We were also welcomed with several items such as bread, milk, sparkling wine, fruits which was very nice for tired travelers. The rental has just about everything you might need (appliances). The washing machine really came in handy and we used the BBQ on Christmas day when we figured most restaurants would be closed. We walked down the 130 steps (yes, I counted) from the private access beach hut down to the pebbled beach 3 of the 7 days we stayed there. We saw 2 people max on each of those days. The weather in Madeira was pleasant (esp compared to winter in London) but it was not sunbathing weather (plus it rained) else we would have made better use of the nice private beach hut. The cottage was pretty clean overall but the floors were quite dusty upon arrival (we like to walk barefoot inside the house so we can fully relax). I had to sweep up the whole place first since we felt dust on our feet after we walked around inside. I did mention this to Bruno that the cleaners must have forgotten to sweep/vacuum & mop the floors, for the sake of future renters. Like the listing says, it is a VERY steep & narrow climb down a 1-lane driveway to get to the cottage (the other side is the drop from the cliff). Although it might be a bit scary & challenging for some drivers, it wasn't too bad for us as my husband is good at navigating challenging roads. However, we did make it a point to get back to the cottage before it got dark, to be on the safe side. Note - Pack (or buy) your toiletries (soap, shampoo/conditioner, lotion as they are not provided) and bring a pair of slippers (or flip flips) for inside the cottage as the living room has bumpy cobble stones. Also, we used the property booking agent (Our Madeira) to help book us a car rental. The prices were fair & airport pick up /drop off was convenient so I'd recommend getting your car rental through them also. We had a lovely & relaxing holiday. Thank you so much!

Wirklich Traumhaft schön

Es war wirklich traumhaft schön. Das Appartment, sowie die Umgebung und der fast private Strand. Die Aussicht vom Appartment ist wirklich unvergleichlich schön. Wenn man aufwacht kann man direkt auf das Meer schauen. An sich ist man ungestört, allerdings ist vor dem Appartment ein Garten der von einem freundlichen Gärtner betreut wird. Dieser ist allerdings auch öfters anwesend auch wenn man ihn so gut wie gar nicht sieht/hört, da der Garten unter dem Appartment ist... Der Weg zum Appartment ist echt nichts für Ängstliche Fahrer - das muss man schon wissen... Gerade hochzu... Wenn dann einem einer entgegen kommt muss man rückwärts... Zum Glück ist uns das nicht passiert, aber man sollte schon wissen das es den Adrenalinspiegel deutlich erhöht wenn man diesen Weg fährt! Und Tip - unbedingt ein paar mehr ps beim Auto buchen... Die Anstiege sind einfach zu doll dort...

Perfekt

Die Unterkunft liegt eingebettet zwischen Meer und Bananenplantage, nachts kann man das große Panoramafenster geöffnet lassen und dem Rauschen des Meeres lauschen, die Unterkunft ist sehr sauber und mit allen was man braucht /brauchen könnte (Toaster, Taps und Filtermaschine, Mixer, Entsafter, Waschmaschine und Geschirrspülmaschine). Die Straße zur Unterkunft ist einspurig und etwas abenteuerlich, aber sicher. Sehr freundlicher Kontakt

Excellent little hideaway

From the moment we booked Bruno was in contact with villa details, places to go, places to eat, etc. The view from the villa was amazing however the road to it gets the pulse racing - iy=ts quite steep!!! Villa is small but perfect for 2 people with evreything you need for a short getaway.
