We really liked the house Alhinho we stayed in. Nice cosy living room, big kitchen, big comfortable beds with amazing pillows. The surroundings of the house Alhinho were also beautiful. We visited during March/April and everything around was blooming or was green, a beautiful apple orchard. The house had a beautiful private terrace/garden, which we did not manage to use because of the bad weather. The house was equipped with a bathtub and hot water flowed immediately and was really warm, I was so happy after a hike in the rain. We did not have breakfast in this accomodation.

It really felt like a home away from home! Private and relaxing location, beautiful surroundings and everything you needed was there. The beds were really comfortable! Sofia, the owner, was really helpful and friendly and welcomed us with a fantastic sourdough bread. Thanks for everything, we would definitely like to come back!

Beautiful location, in the mountains and forests. Comfortable bed and great shower and bath. Easy check in and parking. Great to get away from the business of the city and to be close to nature and animals. Fresh bread on arrival was a treat and the peacocks and levada close by to walk along. Lovely sun in the morning in January until about 3:30-4pm in the garden to enjoy the warmth of the sun.

The place is absolutely stunning. The views are amazing, the house is so pretty and beautifully designed. The kitchen has everything you need if you decide to stay in and cook for yourself on a rainy day (which we did). We were there over New Years avoiding the crowds of Funchal and its firework craze. Loved the quiet and the green. It's very private. Sofia is super organised and welcoming. There are wonderful walks starting right at Valle Paraizo. The pretty Camacha is a short walk away and we'd gone there for lunch and dinner a few times. We don't drive and got there and back from Funchal very easily by bus, bus stop is right by the entrance of the property. Peacocks walking around our house were delightful and added to the magical feel of the place, along with the beautiful trees, other birds and flowers.

Bolota is tiny but perfectly formed and ideal for a couple. It is beautifully located, thoughtfully designed, immaculate throughout and was a delightful place to stay. The support (messages to show you the way to find it, including a video, answers to questions etc) was superb.

Absolutely amazing place, perfect for island exploration! Sofia is a perfect host. Breakfasts organised "remotely" = food delivery is good solution for this place. You have a lot of privacy in here.

Valle Paraizo, paradise valley, as the name implies, is an oasis of 'old madeira' in all its charm and beauty. Our accommodation was a former estate worker's cottage sympathetically renovated to deliver comfortable holiday accommodation with an extensive garden with its own path up to a nearby levada , itself a footpath to Monte. At least two restaurants are within walking distance, the nearest being about 800m, Tijuca. Here, we enjoyed espetada (skewered char-grilled steak) as good as you'll get anywhere. Note: cards not accepted at Tijuca but this is far from insurmountable as there is a cash machine at the very well-stocked Continente supermarket just five minute's walk further into the village. From Valle Paraizo it is a short drive to the Botanical Gardens and the Palhiero (Blandy) Garden; and about half an hour's drive to the highest drivable point of the island, Pico Arieero. Here, the views and walks are breath-taking, and that's an understatement.

Location. Cottage. Friendliness. Pets in the garden..

Beautiful and absolutely quiet location in the middle of vegetation and away from the tourist traffic. The accommodation is in a rustic local style but quite comfortable. Communication with the housekeeper only electronically which suited me fine. Ideal for tourists who want to discover interesting places on the island.

The cottage is in an incredible position, tucked away in the hills but you can still see the sea! The shower was amazing and it has all the necessities to cook.of.you want to. The bed was very comfortable! The owner was very attentive and the communication was very easy and quick. Would definitely stay here again in the future!
