Wir haben alles so vorgefunden, wie angekĂŒndigt. Wir wurden sehr persönlich und empathisch begrĂŒĂt und wĂ€hrend unseres Aufenthaltes begleitet.
Wir können die Unterkunft nur empfehlen und werden bestimmt wieder kommen.
Hier ist alles sehr schön. Die Vermieterin ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Probleme werden sofort gelöst. Leider ist die Autobahn akustisch doch recht prÀsent. Sonst top.
Die Wohnung ist sehr grosszĂŒgig gestaltet, liebevoll eingerichtet mit allem, was man braucht.
Filomena kĂŒmmert sich sehr nett und gibt wertvolle Tipps. Die Aussicht ist traumhaft und mit Bus in der NĂ€he der Wohnung ist man recht schnell im Zentrum von Funchal. Ich kann die Wohnung sehr weiter empfehlen!
Wir (Ehepaar Anfang 50) haben den 2016er FrĂŒhling auf Madeira in vollen ZĂŒgen genossen. Wesentlichen Anteil daran hatte die wunderschöne Unterkunft, mit allem Komfort und diesem traumhaften Ausblick. Eine tolle Lage und auch nachts ein genussvoller Ausblick auf die Stadt. Die Vermieterin Filomena haben wir ausgesprochen freundlich erlebt mit liebevoller FĂŒrsorge und guten Tips fĂŒr den Aufenthalt. Insgesamt werden wir gerne wiederkommen!
You can tell from the other reviews that this property is very highly thought of. It is actually the base floor of a three story villa (yes the other two are rented out as well) and access is gained by dropping down 30 or so steps through a terraced garden. Car parking space is on the road (which is a No through road) and so only utilised by other residents.
The great views over Sao Goncalo and Funchal come from the fact you are about 400m above sea level and the roads leading to the property have some very steep sections. Yes a bus service does stop just around the corner but the final hill could be tough for anybody but the fittest. I would recommend a car but one with a large engine otherwise you could spend two weeks coming up in first gear like I did (1.2 Corsa).
The layout of the place is just like the pictures and would be comfortable for four but we were only two and it suited our needs perfectly.
The front of the property is terracotta tiles and there is a small semi circle where two sunbeds could be placed comfortably. There is also a table and four wooden chairs as well. The garden goes down in terraces and are maturely planted and quite lovely.
Inside the property had most appliances you could need and all the accoutrements are all serviceable.
There are not too many restaurants close by and so eating means cooking in or taking another trip down and up the hill. However, Filomena is a font of knowledge of the local area and has many attraction and restaurant details in the property and if you seek her opinion she is very forthcoming. We found her a great help and she provided perfect customer service and was quick to respond to any of our queries.
I certainly would not hesitate in recommending this property to any relative or friend as the location and facilities were just right for us and far better than stopping in a hotel.
Yes there is a constant hum from the Rapide (dual carriageway) which is down the hill but it is not really noticeable (except when a large motorbike screams it's way along but after 15 seconds peace descends again). I certainly found sitting out and reading easy and relaxing. There is also good shade if you are not a sun seeker although as the sun comes around the hillside it does get harder but there is a large umbrella with the property and so that helps (just have to watch if it is also windy!).
