Gina was very helpful and welcoming and contact with the owner was seamless prior to arrival. There is a lot to do on the island and a car is definitely required to see all the sights and navigate the various hills and valleys. We took the cable cars in Funchal and visited the botanic gardens which were lovely. Would come back to visit again ##### Paul W.

The communication and booking process was simple and clear. Being greeted on arrival with a quick tour of the villa was great. The welcome pack was much appreciated. The villa was very clean and we had no issues with the electric or hot water all week. 4 adults staying for a 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration. We had the most wonderful week and the weather was warm and a mix of sun and cloud which allowed us to explore as we wished of the beautiful island.Kitchen was well equipped with all you could need and more.Had great fun playing table tennis! Pool was a great addition and used most days. The only comment we would make, would be, it would be nice to have seating outside that was more comfortable for the older generation. Parents struggled to get down to the sunbeds to sit and without any support on back on the bench had to resort to going inside. Car hire given the location was a good choice and the directions and photos of how to get to the villa were fantastic. The local rally was on, the cars driving right past the villa made for an exciting mornings viewing. The drive up to the villa is quite a steep hill but once you got the hang of it no trouble. We would love to return to the villa again in the future as there is still so much to see of the island. ##### Rebecca M.

Auch der Blick aufs Meer ist fantastisch.Zum Spielzimmer können wir nichts sagen, das haben wir gar nicht genutzt.Auch die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter klappte sehr gut. Auch die Anbindung an die Hauptverkehrsader, über die man recht schnell überall hin kommt, ist gut.Jedoch waren wir etwas enttäuscht von dem Pool, der lediglich durch die Sonne aufge"heizt" wurde und deswegen eher kühl war, was bei den Außentemperaturen von etwa 18 Grad nicht unbedingt eine willkommene Abkühlung darstellte. Als wir diesbezüglich Kontakt mit der vor Ort zuständigen Person aufnehmen wollten, wurde auf unsere Anfrage leider nicht reagiert. Das fanden wir schade. ##### A N.

It was all and all a great experience. We did struggle with the posted amenities, for example the dryer would cause the main breaker to throw causing us to have to babysit it. The house is huge but also mainly cold surfaces so it can be hard to heat with the provided heaters, which can also trip the electric mentioned above. The beds were pretty comfy and the kitchen was super nice to have. Couldn't use the pool because it was cloudy most if the time and so it didn't warm but that is nature's fault.The area is great. I liked all of the local businesses along the road and it was super easy to get to the highway. The driveway is super steep and we didnt risk it on rainy days, otherwise we adapted to it. I really liked how staying outside Funchal forced us to explore the island. Seixal was our favorite. ##### Jackie G.

We found the villa with no problem using Google Maps link provided and checked in easily. We were surprised at how big it is! There were only three of us, but it would be more than big enough for a family of six. We found it to be very well-equipped, with everything that we needed to enjoy our stay. The pool was lovely, and heated to a good temperature - the worst bit was getting out, particularly if it was a bit windy! Car hire is essential as there isn't much in the local area - but there are a number of restaurants, supermarkets etc. in the nearby town of Ribeira Brava. A few things that might be helpful - the villa is located close to the village of Boa Morte, which is a little further from Riberia Brava than we expected, although this wouldn't have made any difference as we would have driven anyway as it's very hilly! - if you need to get more table-tennis balls (there was only one when we arrived and it was broken) the only place that sells them is Decathlon just outside of Funchal We needed to change our arrival date by a day - John was happy to oblige, but it seemed quite difficult to do this through vrbo (not sure why as I'm sure it must happen regularly). In the end, we agreed to just leave the booking as it was and John would just refund us for the day that we didn't use. Overall, we had a great time, and would definitely go back. ##### Owen R.

Med hjælp fra agentur og ejer lykkes det dog med godt humør. Ejerens repræsentant på stedet var til gengæld sur og ubehøvlet. Brok over for tidlig ankomst til trods for at vi dels havde meldt tidspunkt på mail og dels havde fået oplyst i huspapirerne at vi kunne få huset efter kl. 16 (vi ankom ca. 17). Selve huset er okay. Der er, hvad man skal bruge, og det var rent og pænt. Der er skøn udsigt over havet og bjergene. Desværre larmede naboens hund temmelig meget fra morgen til aften. Den blev bundet i en snor i haven og kom først ind om aftenen når han kom hjem fra arbejde. ##### Carsten E.

Der Pool ist super, das Haus sehr großzügig und sauber. Allerdings sind die Geräusche in der Nachbarschaft tatsächlich sehr laut (Hähne und Hunde). Da wurde regelmäßig mitten in der Nacht angeschlagen. Wir haben dann bei geschlossenem Fenster geschlafen, was aber wegen der nicht so hohen Temperaturen kein Problem gewesen ist. ##### Katrin v.

Prestations identiques à la description. ( Peut-être un peu plus de vaisselle serait bienvenue!) La piscine chauffée :au top! La vue est imprenable sur la mer et la montagne . C'est un point de départ idéal pour visiter cette magnifique île. Le propriétaire est réactif suite aux questions que nous sommes susceptibles de nous poser. Aussi nous recommandons cette location +++ ##### Ingrid B.

Wir waren für zwölf Tage in dem Haus, und das Haus selber war sehr schön eingerichtet, sauber, gemütlich und groß. Der Pool war schön und leicht gewärmt, von uns aber gar nicht viel genutzt. Leider haben ab morgens früh um 4 Uhr viele Hähne in der Nachbarschaft um die Wette gekräht und auch die Hunde im Tal haben eher wenig geschlafen. Dadurch konnten wir kein Fenster Nachts offen lassen, was mich sehr gestört hat. Das Kinderzimmer roch sehr muffelig, wo ich die Ursache nicht finden konnte, auch das hat leider beeinträchtigt. Der Spielraum mit der Tischtennisplatte war schön. Die Küche gut ausgestattet und der Blick über das Tal wunderbar. Dadurch habe ich dem Haus schon vier Sterne gegeben, auch wenn ich persönlich nicht wieder hinfahren würde und es auch nicht Freunden empfehlen würde. ##### Cornelia G. Stayed 12 nights in Mar 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jacqueline H. 25 Feb 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nicht zu empfehlen Anders als in der Beschreibung waren die Schaukel und der Basketballkorp vor Ort verrostet und sehr gefährlich für die Kinder. Es war dauerhaft kalt und die Heizungen haben nicht gut geheizt. Es gab kein Chick in und keinen Chek out. Wir waren auf uns selbst gestellt. Am Ende hat man uns sogar eine Kaution abgezogen, die völlig unberechtigt war. Man hat uns Sachen angekreidet die wir nicht waren. Und ohne effektive Beweise hat FeWo die Kaution an den Vermieter bezahlt, obwohl man uns sagte er müsse das erst mal beweisen, was er bis heute nicht getan hat. Bitte unbedingt die Finger davon lassen. Viel zu teuer und ungemütlich. Keine Sonnenlage! Und das Objekt entsprach nicht der Beschreibung Bsp. Schlafsofa! ##### Jacqueline H.
