On this level there is an office area, a bathroom with shower, and a bedroom with two single beds, which gives access to a nice balcony. The architecture of the house and the stone walls are typical of the area where it is located, which makes the rural experience even more authentic. The quiet atmosphere where this property is inserted, allows you to hear and enjoy the chirping of the birds, in a private grass garden. The outdoor dining area also connects to the cultivated area where you can find fruit trees accessible to guests, vines, lemon, anone, and tangerine trees, as well as yams, spinach, and other varieties of plants and flowers.

The house is very quiet. A small supermarket and a bar are nearby. The kitchen and house are well equipped. Everything you need is there. This accommodation is ideal as a starting point for beautiful hikes in the west of the island. ##### Ida R.

The house is filled with everything you need. Especcially the comfortable hammock was in daily use. At the middle of the stay we got new towels and a quick cleaning of the house. The contact to the team was very easy and without of any complications ##### Meike B. ### 6/10 Okay #### Raphaela F. 4 Mar 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Mould in the bathroom Unfortunately there was a humidity problem which caused mould and made running a machine to draw the humidity out necessary that was a bit loud in the night ##### Raphaela F.

La route est extrêmement pentue, déconseillée aux véhicules peu puissants. La manœuvre pour entrer dans la propriété est complexe en raison de la pente, d'un dos-d'âne et de l'étroitesse de la voie. Contrairement à l'annonce, la plage de Ponta do Sol n'est pas accessible en 6 minutes mais en 20 min. \* \*\*État du logement et équipements :\*\* L'équipement de la cuisine est assez limité pour le nombre de personnes que la maison peut accueillir. Nous avons constaté que certains éléments étaient endommagés (la hotte aspirante et un tiroir de la cuisine) et ils n'ont pas été réparés pendant notre séjour. Le mobilier de jardin (transats) mentionné ou attendu pour une location de cette gamme était absent. Le barbecue était difficile d'accès et nous n'avons pas pu l'utiliser. Une odeur persistante d'humidité se dégageait des canapés.\* \*\*Gestion et communication :\*\* Le gestionnaire, "An Island Apart", a été informé de ces désagréments mais aucune solution ou compensation n'a été proposée durant notre séjour pour améliorer la situation.\* \*\*Environnement :\*\* L'environnement immédiat est très calme, mais assez isolé avec peu d'activités à proximité sans voiture. Nous avons été incommodés à plusieurs reprises par des fumées odorantes provenant de feux aux alentours. ![Impossible de sortir le voisin nous bloque avec sa voiturz](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d95a359f-f8a3-4421-8d86-da108bd3e97f-1756656350095.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Des limaces dans le salon](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f68fe5dc-38c5-4212-82fc-b5acc08a7381-1756656349672.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Ma compagne a pris le tiroir cassé sur le genou](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5d013e81-94d4-4f42-b70a-06ef7f65c868-1756656349835.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Les ustensiles de cuisine](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f94603d4-70c0-4751-ad70-c14b7803ed8a-1756656349925.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Yorick H.

Man ist aber auch schnell auf der ER 101 und kommt überall hin auf der Insel. Uns hat es richtig gut gefallen und wir können es nur empfehlen. ##### Michael W. Stayed 12 nights in Nov 2023 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paula A. 28 Aug 2023 #### Alojamiento encantador Perfecto alojamiento para vivir la verdadera experiencia de Madeira. Muy confortable, silencioso para el descanso y con maravillosas vistas. Al no estar cerca de centro urbanos, se aprecian perfectamente las estrellas. Tiene todo lo necesario para tu estancia y aparcamiento en el propio alojamiento. ##### Paula A. ---
