Hospitality at Its Best
We recently had the most amazing one-week vacation at this rental home. From the moment we stepped inside, we knew we were in for a treat. The house was exceptionally well equipped, providing us with everything we needed during our stay.
One of the highlights of this rental was the breathtaking view it offered, augmented by the design of the home with its wall of windows facing the ocean. The balcony lounge chairs allowed us to relax as we overlooked the ocean with views out to Funchal and the mountains beyond. We looked forward to returning after a day of exploration.
The proximity to the ocean allowed us to hear the Cory's Shearwater birds at night with their distinct "wacka wacka" call. The beds and pillows in the house were comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The rental was impressively spacious. It exceeded our expectations, and the pictures truly did not do it justice.
We greatly appreciated having access to a wide range of channels, including streaming services. The location of the home is convenient to Funchal and yet sufficiently removed to provide a more serene atmosphere and access to eastern parts of the island. There are restaurants and shopping nearby.
The hospitality we received from Joao, who greeted us and gave us a tour, was appreciated, as was his gift bottle of Madeira wine, a thoughtful gesture. Without a doubt, if we have the opportunity to stay here again we will.
