It was a wonderful vacation. Thanks for the great time.
Pros: Quiet, beautiful place. It was very nice to find a pack of fruit near the door on the first and last days we returned home.
Cons: Madeira is the island with a really wet climate. I didn't find a good place to dry clothes, as it's quite wet in the house too. An electric heated towel rail in the bathroom would be very useful.

Good value for money!
Pros: The view, the location, the lovely garden! There is parking on the premises. And every morning you get fresh bread and fruits. Inside the house there is everything you need, even an electric heater. At walking distance (10min) there is a nice Tea House restaurant!
Cons: If anything…: At this time of year, the house (no8) was very moist, and smelled a bit moldy. There is little daylight coming through the small windows, so it’s pretty dark.

Idyllic, affordable stay
Pros: The Quinta was a lucky find indeed - it is a charming place, very green and lush and very close to the ocean. It is located in a very secluded and peaceful village close to many hikes, towns and other points of interest. The rooms were spacious and well equipped. I really don't understand the complaints about the cats, there weren't that many and the ones I met were very friendly. Overall, I would gladly stay again here to explore the beautiful island.
Cons: Some appliances in the room have seen better days. And while the location is very calm and quiet, the ocean can be quite loud - but that is a rather beautiful problem to have, if you ask me!

Pros: The place was amazing. Very spacious, but at the same time cosy and authentic. The garden and the surroundings of the Quinta were very beautiful, especially the view from the pool. The place was clean and well-equipped. Every day we got fresh bread, eggs and fruit. We felt very welcomed and would definitely recommend this place.

Great place with an amazing location, breakfast, cool view and terrace!
Pros: We stayed at the place for one week - it was great! We loved the location: peaceful, in nature, by the ocean, great overview of the coast/cliffs, amazing! Great fit if you are with the car, pretty comfy to reach all locations around the island and get back to the place to sleep and relax :) Our home had all needed facilities, we were able to cook and store food at the fridge, make some coffee and seat at the terrace. There was also a small pool by the parking, so we were able to swim a bit too! :) The shower had hot water, worked all good. We had some extra blankets and a radiator in the room too, as it got a bit chilly during nights. The stuff was really helpful and easy to reach out, we were also getting fresh bread and some products for breakfast every morning, was perfect! When we asked for some extra stuff, we always got it :) thanks for this!
Cons: The only thing we could specify would be changing towels during the stay if possible: as it gets a bit messy due to longer time of staying and us hiking and bringing sand etc :) also, it's quite humid on the island and they didn't get dry fully, so changing would be really helpful. We spotted few big mosquitoes and spiders, but were able to use the spray we were given, but still wasn't expected :)

Amazing views and a perfect location for a holiday.
Pros: The location was perfect. We had an amazing view of the sea and the mountains! They provided us local eggs for breakfast which were incredible. Everything was cleaned very professionally as well.

Best Stay in Madeira amidst Nature with all basic amenities
Pros: Liked EVERYTHING about this place. Cozy and comfortable stay that felt right at home. Super neat and clean. Everyday cleaning. Kitchen had all the necessary utensils for cooking. Great breakfast provided by Joana a day prior, we could leave easily early morning for the hikes without missing the breakfasts. Very thoughtful <3 Returned to clean bed, rooms, toilets by end of the day. Super Thank You! This place has a common pool and sun bathing chairs with view of the mountains and the sea. It was so soothing. You will be waking up to the sound of the sea waves, birds chirping and roosters screaming :P No city noise. There are also some cute , friendly cats to play with. No harms done by them. We accessed the place by car. Not sure of public transport. Haven't seen any. Place is 30-40 mins away from the Airport and Funchal.
Cons: Liked everything. But, it is nice to have some of the things below: A clothes drying rack to dry the wet clothes after getting wet from hike due to rain or beach or pool experience; an iron for the dry clothes. Also nice to have oil/black pepper for cooking.

Beautiful grounds, peaceful. Staff was excellent. Morning breakfast was delicious
Pros: Breakfast was good. Would be nice to alternate rolls and bread for toast in the morning. It was nice waking up to the ocean and hearing the waves at night. Great location for very little rain
Cons: More hot water for showers. Once the first person took a shower there was no hot water for the second person. Other than that the place was quiet and so relaxing. We will definitely book again if we go back to Madeira. Joana was so helpful

Pros: If you are looking for absolute peace and unity with nature - this is the place for you. Compact bungalows drown in greenery, rocks hang behind, and the ocean rages in front. The morning begins with a hundred-voice chorus of roosters. Rural flavor in every detail, simple friendly people. Extremely sweet Ms. Joana and delicious local bananas)) Convenient location, close to the extraordinary village of Santana, the beaches of Seixal and the baths of Porto Monish.
Cons: We were there at the end of January - it was quite cool and damp, so it was not possible to swim in the ocean
