Cosy cabin with amazing views

Pros: The location was fantastic, amazing views of mountains and sea, such a beautiful spot. Cabin was very cosy and well kitted out with utensils. The communal BBQ area was well sheltered and would have been a good spot to eat if the weather was better! Communication was good with the owner and his restuarant down in Paul Do Mar was great with very tasty, Brazilian inspired food. Was lovely to meet him and say hi.

Cons: A duvet would be a nice addition as only sheets and blankets provided.

Overall simplicity at it’s best!

Pros: The view from the balcony of the tiny black bird down to Paul do Mar is fantastic. All you need is a cup of good coffee (espresso can is available). When it gets chilly in the winter, there is a small electric heater. You can also buy wood from Celina and heat up the hot tub for some extra quality time (takes ca. 1.5 h). When you enjoyed the silence and want to have a vibrant place with lovely food, Maktub from the owner Fabio is a perfect choice. We enjoyed it a lot.

Looks even better in real

Pros: Stunning view and very comfortable bed. Attention to details. I recommend trying the owner’s restaurant Maktub about 15min drive away!

Pros: The view is amazing and great feeling to disconnect! Unfortunately, the hot tub was broken due to unforseen circumstances (in process to be fixed), but Fabio and Celina were wonderful hosts and provided us with a lovely voucher to dine at Maktub Pub in Paul Do Mar. Furthermore, we could use vegetables and fruits from the garden to cook delicious meals.

Pros: We loved the location of this place for our honeymoon. Very quiet and tranquil. Has everything you need. There are some good restaurants near the beach about 10min away one which the owner of these owns and it was the best food we had on the island! Very much enjoyed our stay and would recommend highly.

Beautiful location with small points for improvement (7,5).

Pros: The location of the accommodation is amazing, just as in the pictures. Waking up and drinking your morning coffee looking at the dramatic cliffs and the sea is something truly special. The BBQ spot in between the two houses also makes it a very good option for those traveling with two couples (like us). The owners are very responsive over WhatsApp.

Cons: For the high price, certain amenities could have been better. The lamps in the dining/BBQ spot did not work, there were no (small) trashcans in the apartments, the blankets were a bit small for two people and the parking spot is not reserved for the house. We came back one night to find there was no spot and had to climb the very steep hill on foot. Sadly, the jacuzzi did not work and could not be repaired in time.

Außergewöhnliche Unterkunft mit traumhaften Ausblick

Pros: Sehr süßes Cabin für zwei Personen. Die Lage ist atemberaubend. Sehr ruhig. Man hat eine kleine Küche in der man gut kochen kann. Ein paar Kleinigkeiten, wie ein Schneidebrett, Mülleimer und Föhn haben gefehlt.

Super miejsce, z dala od zgiełku, z widokiem na gwiazdy , góry i ocean i miłymi gospodarzami, którzy pomagali w razie py

Pros: Lokalizacja jest niesamowita, z pięknym widokiem na zachód słońca i hot tubem!

Atemberaubende Aussicht

Pros: Die Aussicht ist der absolute Wahnsinn. Es gibt nichts schöneres als beim Frühstücken im Sonnenaufgang, die unendliche Weite des Meeres erblicken zu dürfen. Ein kleiner Wermutstropfen ist der Blick auf das gegenüber liegende Tal, welches im Oktober 2023 von Waldbränden erfasst wurde. Die Ausstattung ist absolut ausreichend, es gibt sogar einen Grill, den man benutzen kann. Das Bett und die Dusche sind entsprechend der Größe der Hütte natürlich auch nicht übermäßig groß, aber das kann man auch nicht erwarten.

Cons: Leider gab es kein Brettchen in der Küche zum Schneiden. Ebenfalls wäre eine Ablagefläche statt einer großen Stehlampe sinnvoll. Wenn die Sonne scheint, teilt man sich die Terrasse mit einer Vielzahl von Eidechsen.
