Fabulous apartment
This is a lovely, well-equipped apartment which has a spacious balcony with ever-changing views of the sea and the mountains. It’s only a few minutes walk from the bars and restaurants of Porto da Cruz and only a short drive from the airport. We had a warm welcome (with Christmas cake!) from Carolyn. Recommended.

Un très bon séjour pour profiter de la mer et de la montagne.
Conforme à la description, pas de mauvaises surprises, appartement bien entretenu.
Nous avons apprécié le calme.
Quelques chiens et coqs au loin, mais ça fait partie du charme des vacances.
Nous avons aussi bien aimé la vue sur la mer et la montagne.
Cet appartement et son emplacement étaient parfaits pour les deux randonneurs que nous étions.
Nos hôtes ont été très accueillants.
Merci à Carolyn et Mark pour ce séjour, le cadre agréable et la salade du jardin.
Nous garderons de bons souvenirs de Madère.

About the host
Hosted by Carolyn
We moved here from England in 2016 having sold our restaurant/accommodation business there, and after extensive renovations opened our villa to guests in 2017. We enjoy meeting new people, and are already welcoming back guests who are returning to the beautiful island of Madeira and our home town of Porto da Cruz
Why they chose this property
This property has stunning view to the sea, town and mountain. It is set on a quiet lane and is approximately three to five minutes walk to the amenities, and beach. The apartment is homely with a large balcony which is partially enclosed so even in inclement weather it is sheltered and lovely to while away the hours watching the changing scenery and taking in the beautiful view,
What makes this property unique
We are ideally placed to visit the whole of the island. Plus we are only approximately fifteen minutes drive from the airport. Porto da Cruz is close to the main roads, and tunnel sections that make travelling around the island easy.
