AREA
Property located in the northern part of the island, more precisely in Rosário, parish of the municipality of São Vicente. As it is in a more isolated area, you will not find any type of trade in the vicinity of the property. A ten-minute drive from the village of São Vicente, there you will find local shops, restaurants, supermarket and pharmacy.

Near the house, you will find the Miradouro do Rosário and access to several trails and levadas, where you can take the opportunity to stroll and explore the island.

The city of Funchal is 45 minutes away by car. If you choose to go to the center of Funchal, take the opportunity to explore the city and look for more information about all kinds of activities you can do during your vacation: cultural activities, radical activities, activities related to nature ... whatever the purpose of the visit to Madeira Island!

Beautiful spot but the house was a bit disappointing

Perfect spot when the sun is shining. The view is beautiful. Unfortunately the weather was cold and it was clowdy. Inside the house was a bit disappointing: small beds and a small bathroom, no electric heating.

A weekend with an amazing view

It was just for a weekend but it was great. It's not a luxurious house but the location, outdoor space and view were amazing. Very comfortable and great ratio of money/accommodation.

Fantastic place

The house was very clean, more than enough space in and outside the house, big kitchen. Very complete, the garden had a nice terrace. But the best is the view from the house at the mountains, forest and all the birds singung around the house! We had a fantastic holiday!

Nice view, spacious but a bit outdated

The house is beautiful in the hills with a great view. In November it can be too chilly and damp. We needed al lot of electric heating for that. The kitchen could be better equipped but has a lot. The matrasses in the beds were way too hard to be comfortable. That should be changed soon. Overall a good place to stay. But maybe better in summer than in winter.

Thank you for your detailed review. We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful view, the spacious house and the overall location. We’re sorry to hear that the mattresses felt too hard and will review this for future improvements. We also apologize for the lack of communication regarding the garden workers. Your comments about the heating, eco-friendliness and kitchen equipment are appreciated, and we will look into possible upgrades. Thank you again for your feedback. It helps us improve, and we hope you will consider staying with us again, perhaps in the summer to enjoy the location even more.

Excelent!

Not only the site is gorgeous with an incredible mountain view, but the house itself is really wonderful. There is a small supermarket and a bakery about 5 minutes by car, and of course, the amazing north side of the Island to discover. We weren't blessed with the best weather, but even in the few times it rained, we had a lot of outside locations around the house were we could relax, or even barbecue! If it didn't rain it was even better! So I recommend taking a good book, whatever meat/veggies you prefer for the barbecue, take long deep breaths and enjoy. It's a really comfortable place to be in.
