Newly refurbished room .New shower facilities.
Nice and clean.
Fantastic view from balcony (chairs and table provided)
Enough space in the parking area(free of charge).
Close to the airport - view on landing and starting airplanes but still quiet and private.
We had a wonderful stay 😊

The location is very good- 10 min.walk from the center with stunning views over Machico. I had a private room with a bathroom in a private property - with shared common living area and a kitchen. Nonetheless, It felt like i had it all to myself - I barely felt any presence of the owners. They are very nice and welcoming ☺️ I enjoyed my stay:)

The location was really nice, up a hill with a view of the valley below. The host was extremely nice and helpful, the house was equipped with everything we needed and more, bathroom was clean and kitchen well equipped. And all that for a very reasonable price.

Perfectly clean, probably recently renovated, everything works as it should. Large convenient kitchen. We also use dashing machine. Huge supermarket is 200 m down the street. Convenient and practically empty parking is across the street at the pastry shop Panadería Esperanca - I find it easier to use than the garage. Pastry shop is good for breakfasts. Check in procedure with the codes is easy and fast.

The host was extremely communicative and clear about everything. He even sent pictures to go with each step of instructions. The indoor reserved parking spot was a life saver. We also had to ask to stay an extra night due to a medical issue and he was kind and accommodating.
One of the oldest towns on Madeira.. Nicely situated close to Airport. Walkable, many charming restaurants, marina with walkable bus station.. A very charming authentic Portuguese town. Love Machico..

Machico is so much nicer to stay in than Funchal if you like the quieter more laid back vibe. The shops and restaurants are all good but particular praise must go to all the ladies in Pastelria O Gala who worked tirelessly to keep their customers happy at all times - the Pastel de Natas were simply gorgeous and at EUR1.00 each were superb value. Try O Secreta for a really nice evening meal and don't forget to try the bread in Paderia e Pastelaria Flor de Machico

The apartment was spacious and very comfortable. The location was great ... within walking distance to the beach and also to the village centre. It is also close to the airport.
The name of the apartment was not very clear. In the small print it has Edifico VIP Baie, but I was looking VIP Paradise Apartments.

A lovely town of just the right size, lively but still calm - it has a lot of good restaurants, various stores etc that make your stay comfier than one in a smaller town, without the crowds of a bigger city which can get overwhelming. Funchal is a short drive away, and it is also a great base for all the trips and hikes especially around the eastern part of the island.
And there is a sandy beach well protected from the waves, so almost everyday is a good day for a swim!

Great place for my vacation.
Great place for my vacation. Quiet town providing all you need - supermarkets, one sand and one rocky beach, starting point for hikes and runners trails. Public buses to east part of the island ad Funchal. Bus to the airport - 5min ride for 1,3 eur. Great!

If you are without a car and want to visit most of the tourist places on Madeira Island you should rather look for a apartment in the Funchal city. That's a town where most of the buses go and you are going to have more time for your trips. The Machico city is also great and beautiful but rather quiet and somewhat local.
This is a great place to stay! I highly recommend staying here when going to Machico. The communication with the host is really easy and he is very quick to respond. The location is super nice, in the middle of a cute neighborhood. It's close to the beach (a few minutes walk) supermarkets, bus station and cafes/restaurants. We really felt at home here and would have loved to stay longer if possible. The house had everything we needed (there is even an oven!) and is really clean.
This was an excellent place to stay in Machico. Very comfortable bed with nice bedding, well designed large room with a seating area and every amenity you could need. Guest house has great kitchen and common areas. The location is perfect. Just minutes from the sea, great restaurants and cafes. Very easy to access hiking trails from this area. The hosts are very friendly, make you feel at home. They also have great advice for things to do in the area.
A lovely footpath through the garden. Every time you walked along you found a different plant. A large outdoor seating area plus a balcony or large window to view the valley down to the sea.
A very well supplied kitchen so much better than other places we have stayed in on Madeira.
Our stay was to short but will definitely return.
The photos do not do the place justice.
The location is very good- 10 min.walk from the center with stunning views over Machico. I had a private room with a bathroom in a private property - with shared common living area and a kitchen. Nonetheless, It felt like i had it all to myself - I barely felt any presence of the owners. They are very nice and welcoming ☺️ I enjoyed my stay:)
The host was really nice and welcoming. We received a glass of Madeira wine on arrival and taste of local fruits. I had a pleasant discussion with the host when watching football. His English is good. The accommodation was clean, kitchen is well equipped. There is a nice view from the terrace. The owner took us to the airport for 10 EUR.
Carla met us at the property earlier than we agreed. Welcomed us with Madeira cake and wine, juice for children.
20 min walk to the sandy beach, but durable. There are a few nice local restaurant in a walking distance.
Spacious and comfortable apartment.
She also gave Easter chocolate for my children when we parted.
The location of the apartment was very convenient. Everything that we needed for a few nights stay in Madeira was there. Free parking right outside of the flat. Supermarket in short distance. Fully equipped kitchen. Some coffee, tea as well. Watching sunrise during breakfast was just cherry on top.
Exceptional value for money, and very large place especially for 1 person. Could house a family easily. Easy enough to reach from Madeira airport by car and to Sao Lourenco reserve the next morning. Proprietors provided all the information needed to find the property and get in.
Lovely spot in small Machico, much preferred over crazy Funchal (which we did visit for full day tour). Had super room with patio overlooking square. Great hosts, awesome breakfast. Really nice restaurants in area, Enjoyable waterfront walks. Room comfy enough.
Great location near beach and airport, check-in at 1am after flight delay was no problem. Breakfast was very pleasant, we could also leave our luggage after check-out for a while. I would definitely recommend for the start of your Madeira journey.
Excellent location but the hotel is tired. I very much doubt it has been updated since originally built and the towels may be even older!!
Machico is a great place with lots of cheap / good places to visit. Best to stay in a private Villa.
Property is located in a great location, close to grocery stores, restaurants and the Machico beach and easy access off the highway. Our stay was perfect and Dina was a great host, answering our questions about various activities around town.
Very good location (close to the airport), free parking for the car, the house has everything what you need to stay in Madeira.
Mr. Tiago Teixeira sent us itinerary on places to see and restaurants to visit and gave us the welcome treat.
Wonderful staff and good attention to details, feels like a home away from home. Beautiful location and one of our favorite towns in whole Madeira with a beautiful beach and local shops with fresh fruit and hiking opportunities.
Great location to explore east side of the island.
Beautiful view from the balcony on a quiet street and steps away from the amazing viewpoint.
Close to Machico and all the great restaurants and beaches.
Friendly hotel right in the centre of Machico. many restaurants around. As we had an early flight back, they prepared even the package for us. Thank you!
