Banda Do Sol Self Catering Cottages
100 Caminho Da Ribeira Funda, Estreito Da Calheta, 9370-249 Estreito da Calheta, Portugal – Excellent location – show map
What an amazing place this is!! Heather has poured so much love into making this property feel like a home. We have been traveling for 2 months now and Banda do Sol is still our favorite place we have stayed because it felt most like a home. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is INCREDIBLY well stocked, but it’s all of the tiny thoughtful touches to putting the room together that really shine. The property is beautiful as well, and we really enjoyed the garden. The location was excellent, in a quieter area of the island (still with plenty of restaurants within a short drive if you don’t want to use the kitchen) Heather is so kind and we loved hearing about her life and love for Madeira. Thank you Heather for a wonderful stay and we hope to be back in the future!
