Nice, clean, spacious apartment. Two bedrooms - in one 2 single beds, in other 1 double bed, large living room, extra kitchen, one bathroom. Very close to the airport - 10 minutes.

A cozy, quiet peacefull place we felt like locals in. We cooked breakfast and dinner (when not bought from the nearby burghezia O Machiqueiro Fora D'Horas) and enjoy it on the terrace outside, watching the planes taking off. We took full advantage of the washing machine couse we travelled light (only backpacks). Machico white sand beach is 25 minutes walk from this tradițional (i think) house. Everything was perfect for us.

Our stay in Madeira was truly unforgettable, largely thanks to our wonderful hosts - Goretti and Mauricio. This wasn't just accommodation; it was a completely personalized and authentic experience. The hosts were incredibly helpful and generous with their time, offering fantastic, local tips that completely transformed our trip. They went above and beyond to assist us with logistics and arrangements, which was invaluable. Beyond their amazing assistance, the breakfasts were simply outstanding—delicious, beautifully prepared, and a perfect start to our busy days of exploring. It was clear everything was made with care. This is the perfect place for anyone who values genuine hospitality and wants to see the real Madeira. We highly recommend this accommodation and sincerely thank our hosts for their warmth and generosity! We hope to return soon.
