Thank you, Rafal, Dominika, Alicja, and Michal, for your kind comment. It's great to know that you, a wonderful and super friendly family, were happy here in Madeira and at Stone House, a beautiful window overlooking the sea. I appreciate your visit and hope to have the pleasure of seeing you again in the near future. See you then.

Die Bilder auf der Internetseite entsprechen exakt dem, wie wir es vorgefunden haben. Ein schönes, ruhiges Kleinod, mit Blick aufs Meer und traumhaften Sonnenuntergängen. Der Pool als Erfrischung nach einer Wanderung, oder auch einfach zum Genießen, perfekt. Den Pool teilt man sich mit den anderen Gästen, insgesamt hat der Vermieter drei kleine Häuser. Bei unserer Nutzung hatten wir ihn oft für uns alleine. Als Ausgangspunkt für Touren super, man braucht einen Mietwagen. Die Ferienhäuser liegen etwas oberhalb am Hang und sind mit allem ausgestattet. Wir waren im Stone House und haben uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Vermieter Nelson und seine Frau sind super herzlich und hilfsbereit und wir bekamen leckere Früchte aus ihrem Garten. (Bananen, Guaven ) Wie haben uns rundherum wohl gefühlt und können diese Unterkunft nur empfehlen.

Un superbe endroit.Ne pas avoir peur des escaliers, à Madère tout est en pente, ce qui permet d'être face à la mer dans un calme. Très reposantAprès une petite rando repos à la piscine, ou pour les plus courageux descente à la mer (attention 400m de dénivelé)Et surtout vous aurez affaire à un hôte de service et d'une gentillesse exceptionnelle, çà fait du bien de rencontrer des gens comme Joao.Bon séjour à Madère

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Urlaub in Calheta bei Nelson im "Stone House" Das Haus hat 2 Etagen, im oberen Bereich die beiden Schlafräume und im unteren Bereich WZ, Küche und Bad. 2 Terassen mit Sitzmöglichkeiten direkt am Haus. Der Blick auf den Atlantik ist wunderschön. Ein paar Treppenstufen nach unten befindet sich der Pool, wir haben die Zeit dort sehr genossen! Man teilt ihn sich mit 2 anderen Häusern,aber wir hatten ihn oft für uns alleine. Das Haus war sehr sauber und die Küche mega ausgestattet! Nelson ist ein sehr hilfsbereiter Vermieter, immer auf das Wohl seiner Gäste bedacht!Vielen Dank!

João a été un hôte 5 étoiles ! Très compréhensif, très attentif et plein de bons conseils. La maison est idéale pour 4, bien équipée avec une vue magnifique sur l'océan, le musée d'art contemporain et les jardins en terrasses de Calheta. Le jardin commun aux 3 logements sur plusieurs niveaux dispose de plusieurs endroits ou se poser et admirer la vue et d'une agréable piscine.Alors oui, la salle de douche est un peu petite mais on est dans une maison ancienne rénovée, pleine de charme. Et oui, la route pour y accéder est sinueuse et étroite mais on est à Madère et ici, c'est comme ça partout Bref, une très bonne expérience pour nous 4 qui nous a donné envie de revenir à Madère !

Schönes Haus in toller Lage und toller Aussicht. Strand und Restaurants sind auch zu Fuss erreichbar, wobei diese 100 HM unterhalb des Hauses liegen. Der Gastgeber hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen. Wir würden das Haus nochmals buchen.

Sehr schönes Haus mit tollen Ausblick auf das Meer. Vormittags liegt die Terrasse angenehm im Schatten zum Chillen / Ausruhen. Schnuckeliges Haus auf 2 Etagen mit Pool für 3 Häuser. Dann gibt es auch noch einen traumhaften Garten mit Blick auf das Meer, der Schatten und Sonne bietet. Sehr sympathischer und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber (Nelson), von dem es ggf auch süße Bananen aus dem eigenen Garten gibt. Winziger Unannehmlichkeit: wer größer als 2m ist muss in Erdgeschoss Kopf einziehen

Séjour parfait !

Le gite de Nelson est parfaitement situé sur les hauteurs de Calheta, la terrasse offre une vue magnifique sur l'océan. Logement bien équipé, idéal pour une famille de 4. Le jardin et la piscine (non chauffée) sont bien entretenus et le cadre est agréable. Nelson est très accueillant, serviable et gentil, toujours disponible et souriant, un réel atout pour rendre notre séjour parfait. Merci Nelson!
