The staff was really friendly and attentive, the location was very nice with restaurants, small shops etc., the room was clean and cleaned each day. We would prefer more comfortable matraces and pillows but it was okay. The breakfast was good, lots to choose from but same each day.

Fantastic ambiance, wonderful staff, great accommodations. The villa was gorgeous, and the views were second-to-none (sunset is perfect). Breakfast was more than I'd expect at such an oasis! Multiple "pool" options, incredible gardens!!! You're essentially staying in a botanical garden - better than some "official" botanical gardens I have visited. Even had fresh flowers in the room when we arrived. Most five-star hotels don't even go that far. Bravo, Dazkarizeh73!

Casa Bela Vista, hotel in Ribeira Brava

Casa Bela Vista is located in Ribeira Brava, just 1.3 miles from Lugar de Baixo Beach and 8.9 miles from Girao Cape. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking, and free Wifi.

The host was responsive. Due to flight cancellations and delays, the host allowed us to check in late and was very responsive through the msging app. We had 3 people and it was definitely comfortable with each of us having our own bed. View is amazin from the balcony. Keep in mind there is a washer, but there is no dryer. However, air drying on the balacony is a great option.

Casa Atlantico Dachterrassengeschoss, hotel in Ribeira Brava

Casa Atlantico Dachterrassengeschoss is located in Ribeira Brava, just 1.5 miles from Ribeira Brava Beach and 5.9 miles from Girao Cape.

The owners are so sweet and welcoming. They were there to welcome us on the first day with a big smile. Any questions we had we knew we could go to them without any issue. Location is great with a perfect view of sunset and ribeira brava. The studio was beautiful with a great view from the patio and the bedroom. Everything you might need available in the kitchen and washroom. We loved barbequing there more than once and loved the pool area. Can't recommend this place enough, it was one of the highlights of Madeira for us and we looked forward to spend a relaxing afternoon after having done a difficult hike in the morning! Did not want to leave.

    We used Ribeira Brava as a base for exploring walks in the west of Madeira using the local buses. It is a modern town in a narrow valley and lacks the charms of Funchal. However, it has a several eating places, shops and a small sheltered beach. It is a hub for a number of bus routes.

    I only have positives information to share. There was a coffee bar a 5 minute walk from the hostel - D Luis Restaurante- delicious local feed- skewers on a Laurel stick with chunks of delicious local beef . Difficult to get around without a car. Next time I shall rent a car.

    Public transport in Madeira is a pain, so if you don't drive, it's not easy to get here. Bus information are lacking or are not very clear. Ribeira Brava is a quiet, cozy place, where you can have good restaurants, supermarket and can start nice trips from here.

    Although this is listed as Ribeira Brava it is actually in Ponta do Sol which is lovely. really pretty little town with a few good restuarants tucked away down a side street. Beach is fab as you can go snorkelling on one side wihch is calm then there is a rougher section of sea if you want to swim in the waves. Nice cafe on the beach and a great one overlooking the bay.

    An authentic cozy house in a quiet place with banana plantation and a bench and table on a mount slope above the ocean. Good price, attentive and helpful hostess. In the middle room there is no window and though there is a ventilator in the bathroom, you'd better dry your wet clothes outside. One more cone is not great sound isolation of the room and if you are sensitive for noisy neighbors... mmm... God bless, we did not have ones! All the facilities for comfortable life.

    Delightful safe commercial working town.

    Delightful safe commercial working town. In high season tour buses stop here for a while . In winter very few tourists around . The Church is simply beautiful . Residents mostly friendly and helpful. Spanish speakers will be grand here as so many people either lived in Venezuala or are from there. The Valley is stunning . Reminds me of the lake district. Local bus service will take you to many a levada or other small towns in district . I think the Public Servants in this town should be commended for it's safety, cleanliness and tranquillity.

    This hotel was exceptional value for money. I was expecting much more basic accommodation for the money. The self-checkin was straightforward. The apartment was spacious and well equipped. Some snacks and tea/coffee were provided. There was an outdoors seating area. It was on the edge of the small town centre so sea front, restaurants and the excellent local museum were within easy walking. There was obviously a cycling group staying and they were able to leave their bikes in relative security in the foyer.

    Looks exactly like the pictures. Very clean, modern interior. Super convenient to park your rented car in the dedicated parking spot. In the middle of our 10-day stay the house was thoroughly cleaned and we got fresh sets of towels, linen etc. We felt very welcomed partly thanks to Sidonia, our point of contact from Home in Madeira, who showed us around initially and then during our stay kept us informed about for example weather warnings, current events in Funchal etc. We'll make sure to come back

    The staff is great, pet friendly, accommodating, overall nice people. We had 3 hotels cancel on us, they were our life savers. If you have a pet, don't believe the pet friendly policies in other hotels, they're not true. They only apply to rat sized animals. The beds were surprisingly extremely comfortable. For the price i expected a rock hard mattress but they put out the expense for quality mattresses. It's close to the comfort as my bed at home, maybe not as comfortable but my bed is $4000

    This small hotel is located in a very beautiful place between the mountains. The sound from the Levada Novo is very calming. There is a beautiful garden, well taken care off. The rooms are nice, very good size and clean. Mr. Danilo who runs the place is very nice and he cares about it. The breakfast was nice with eggs, bread, cheese, cereals and fruits, every morning Carmen or Mr. Danilo was ready to prepare the breakfast and eggs. We had a wonderful week and we absolutely love this place.

    Really lovely and peaceful place with a great sea view - unique opportunity to discover a local village of Madeira! The owner Carla and her husband were both so friendly and helpful, offering me food and water, and was always available if I needed anything. The bed was comfy, fast wifi, all clean and tidy- and all the other guests were really nice and respectful. Great value of the price, and highly recommended! Greetings from Norway!

    We liked the cozy, private home, it was clean and beautiful, fully equipped with all the things a person can need when it's travelling. They did a great job with the garden also, the only regret is that we didn't have enough time to fully enjoy it. We will definitely come back! If I could give a hundred stars, I would! The host is helpful, understanding and kind! Thank you for making our stay in Madeira better! 😌

    Great small property with 2 bedrooms above an open plan living room - kitchenette. Really clean and with all appliances / equipment you need including a washing machine. Location next to the famous Taberna da Poncha but whilst it is always busy in the early evenings in particular the noise isn't excessive. Parking is over the road and road is fairly busy as the main North - South road through centre of Madeira.

    Villa Cassolino may be the nicest vacation rental property at which my family and I have ever stayed: superb location on a hillside above Ribeira Brava with expansive ocean views, spotlessly clean, new, modern, bright, comfortable, quiet, easy gated off street parking, washer, fully equipped kitchen, easy check-in and prompt communication with an excellent host.

    This was incredibly great value for the price we paid. The apartment is huge has has everything you need for a comfy stay. Moreover, Ribeira Brava is a great place to set up a main base for exploring Madeira: besides being beach-side town, it has restaurants, grocery stores, and easy access to the highway. Would highly recommend for a long stay.

    It was a great view over Ribeira Brava and a very nice place. It was a bit scary to drive the car in the very steep streets to and from the place though. An experience! We really enjoyed our stay there and the host also gave us a very nice tip about a good, local restaurant.

    The views from our balcony were superb, day and night. Very nice breakfast and lovely staff. Although the Balinese decor might seem out of place in Madeira it is tastefully done and feels like it is comes from the owner's love of Bali rather than being a gimmick.
