We do travel a lot and want to express that the house and its cleanliness is outstanding. We enjoyed the views and the pool. The contact with Ana was very friendly and prompt.We highly reconmend this property.
Scenic location in residential neighborhood, but within very short driving distance of restaurants,
Host is very welcoming and attentive. Clean, spacious, modern accomodations. Recommend car.
Scenic and quiet neighborhood. Great " base camp" to explore the entire island. Stayed for the full month of May. An amazing experience!
There is not much left to say. The house is gorgeous, clean and perfectly furnished, nothing is missing. The pool is also beautiful and very clean, in addition it is quiet and the view is incredibly beautiful. Also the owner and her brother are very friendly and accommodating.
Beautiful villa, lovely views and (after the scary hairpins) a great road network that makes the whole island accessible. We had a fabulous stay and were sorry to come home, but we will be back! Must mention the really good communication with Ana, who was a pleasure to deal with. A car is a must, possibly tricky for toddlers in the grounds, but a real delight for anyone wanting to explore the lovely island from a really comfortable base. Ana, thank you for letting us stay in your lovely house!
From Day 1 communications with Ana and her brother were fantastic.
We were able to check in early and Duarte showed us the house and how things worked .
The photos do not convey how spacious and beautifully furnished the house is .
The outdoor kitchen is magnificent .
The pool was cold- as knew it would be - but we swam several times and loved it . The listing makes it clear the pool is not heated - so we were prepared.
Ana is absolutely delightful to communicate with .
The community are friendly - a lovely lady tends her vegetables next door and we managed to communicate by smiles lots of gestures etc .
If you want to be in a rural but not isolated position , with Kestrels , Buzzards and Swifts for company , but within easy reach of facilities - don't hesitate to book this property .
Beautiful flowers , cake , fruit and Madeira wine were left to welcome us .
Thankyou Ana - We love your house .
Hôte très réactive et très attentionnée, elle a fait en sorte de satisfaire tous nos souhaits.La maison est conforme au descriptif, très bien équipée et très confortable.L’emplacement est calme et très agréable.

Logement idéal pour découvrir madère. Beaucoup de randonnées dans l’ouest de l’île.
Seul bémol : chauffage de piscine à 30€/j non inclus contrairement à ce qui était marqué dans l’annonce donc quasi non utilisée car non chauffée pour pas augmenter les frais.
Sinon tout super !
Das Haus war wunderbar, sauber und mit allem eingerichtet, was man gebraucht hat. Der checkin Vorgang war super easy. Die Kommunikation war super und immer schnell.Die Matratzen waren sehr gut, ein bisschen schmal, aber gut.Alles in allem ein schöner Aufenthalt!Gerne wieder!
Superbe maison, avec tout le confort nécessaire et une très belle vue . Ana et son frère son disponible si il y a un soucis dans la maison. Nous avons passé de très belle vacances. Je recommande les yeux fermé !!
Verbrachten 10 wunderbare Tage in Calheta. Sehr schönes und großes Haus, für 6 Personen geeignet - für 4 Personen optimal. Sehr schöner Pool mit großzügigem Aussenbereich und vielen Terassen. Sehr lange Sonne am Nachmittag durch Süd-, Wedtausrichrung. Gerne wieder
Alles wie beschrieben, freundlicher Empfang durch Duarte, alles sehr sauber und sehr gepflegt und gut ausgestattet, Garten und Pool sind sehr schön. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig mit schöner Aussicht und praktisch für alle Unternehmungen im Westen der Insel. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen! Unkomplizierter Check-out mit Schlüsselbox. Würden das Haus jederzeit wieder buchen und empfehlen es gerne weiter.
Das Haus ist genau, wie auf dem Internet. Die Lage ist ruhig. Der Strand von Calheta ist mit dem Auto in wenigen Minuten erreichbar. Die schöne Levadas sind auch in der Nähe, genau wie die Restaurants und die Supermärkte. In jedem Fall soll man ein Auto mieten. Das Haus ist sehr gepflegt und geschmackvoll mobiliert. Alle Geräte funktionieren reibungslos. Die Matratzen sind sehr bequem. Als Willkommensgeschenk gab es eine Flasche von Madeirawein, frische Früchte und ein wunderschönen Blumenstrauss.
Das Haus ist so wie auf den Bildern ersichtlich. Die Aussicht auf den Atlantik und die Ausstattung des Hauses sind super. Die Kommunikation mit dem Gastgeber lief unkompliziert. Ich würde das Haus jedes Mal wieder buchen. Einfach nur top. Und definitiv nach deutschem Standard sehr gehoben ...
Ein rundum tolles Haus.
Besonders gut hat uns die gut ausgestattete Aussenküche und der Pool gefallen.
Insgesamt ist das Haus sehr gut ausgestattet, sodass man einen entspannten Urlaub, ohne Einschränkungen, verbringen kann.
Besonders gut fanden wir die sehr große Dusche und den überraschend guten Wasserdruck.
Alle Elektrogeräte sind auf dem neusten Stand der Technik, ausser vielleicht die Filterkaffeemaschine. Es ist ein Stabmixer und ein Standmixer vorhanden.
Auch sind Handtücher und Strandtücher in ausreichender Menge vorhanden.
Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist die sehr freundliche und zuvorkommende Vermieterin, die jederzeit ansprechbar ist.
Vom Balkon hat man eine grandiose Aussicht auf Calheta und das Meer.
Wir hatten wirklich eine schöne Zeit!
Très belle maison avec vue sur la mer
L intérieur est très bien agencé.
Tout est top.
Ana est très disponible pour répondre ou intervenir si besoin.
Une location juste parfaite.
Ich glaube wir hatten schon lange nicht mehr so ein liebevoll eingerichtetes und sauberes Ferienhaus. Normalerweise muss ich immer erstmal etwas putzen, bevor ich mich wohlfühle. Hier war alles super sauber und der Urlaub konnte sofort beginnen. Das Haus ist wunderschön, der Blick auf das Meer und den Pool ein Traum. Wir konnten im Oktober in den Pool, ist aber dann schon ein bisschen kalt. Trotzdem toll!! Mit Mietwagen konnten wir vom Haus aus alles super erreichen und wir haben tolle Touren gemacht. Die Zimmer sind großzügig und die Sommerküche ein Traum. Lediglich das Bett hätten wir uns etwas größer gewünscht. 1,40 ist dann doch ein bisschen schmal, wenn man aus dem Teenageralter raus ist. Trotzdem war auch hier alles bestückt mit sauberer und sehr einladender Wäsche. Wir kommen wieder....bestimmt!!!!
Easy enough to get to property from airport in rentacar. Don't forget lights in tunnels!!
Was met with a smile and took car into what I soon started to call "the batcave". There are no bats, just think parking inside with steps to main areas.
Property has all you need to eat, drink, sleep, swim, cleanse, chill and be a base to explore the amazing island. A few doors away is Antonio Dias, who will taxi you when drinking.. go hang with locals, drink ponchas and eat snacks at Poncha do Lombo doutor.
Up the hill is new (2021) restaurant Calheta Green which has great views and food including their chicken version of Espetada. You can also find great levada walks... paying 5 euro for walkme app is good investment... we did a circular route ( i think 6.3) which avoided tourists, but did combine with hitting 25 fontes which was touristville.
Coral beer is ubiquitous and probably best for marinating meat. Fortunately there is a startup brewery, Almirante do Atlântico a walk away, after which can grab a bite at As Fontes do Horácio.
Will be back.
Pictures don't do property justice, was lovely and clean, great to have big fridge freezer with ice machine and I do love induction hobs. Garden was beautiful and pool lovely. Thx Ana.
Modernes, freundliches, sehr gut ausgestattetes Haus
Wir wurden bereits beim check-in sehr freundlich und herzlich empfangen. Das Haus selbst ist sehr modern, freundlich und sehr gut ausgestattet und lässt somit keine Wünsche offen. Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin war Ana ausgezeichnet. Wir kommen gerne wieder
Nous avons passé 9 jours dans la maison et se fut un superbe séjour ! L’endroit est calme , apaisant . La maison est décorée avec beaucoup de goût et super fonctionnelle. L’accueil a été parfait ! Le propriétaire est très disponible ! La piscine est top, nous y étions avec nos 3 enfants et il se bien amusés . Merci pour tout .
Das Haus ist großartig und es ist alles da was man braucht.
Sehr wohnlich eingerichtet, man fühlt sich sofort wie Zuhause.
Die Eigentümerin ist supernett und zuvorkommend. Sehr zu empfehlen!
We had a great stay at Ana’s villa who is a very welcoming host (her brother too). You’ll find everything you need for having great time there. Fantastic views, super comfortable beds and blankets, bbq room, swimming pool, fully equipped kitchen.
