Very Private, beautifully renovated
Great hosts helped us with car hire. The house and furniture was very clean and furnished to a very high standard. Fast wifi with Apple TV. Although not necessary I would recommend a car to stay here The only improvements was the outside paving area needs updating. Overall a great experience.

Tolles Haus mit schƶnem Garten in ruhiger Umgebung auf einer tollen Insel
Ein tolles groƟrƤumiges Haus in einem schƶnen Garten. Alles vorhanden was man zum Urlaubsaufenthalt braucht. Sehr nette Vermieter, die sich immer erkundigt haben ob wir zufrieden sind und noch irgendwas benƶtigen. Im Haus auch sehr viel Kartenmaterial in allen Sprachen vorrƤtig, da findet man jedes Ziel oder Anregungen. Das Haus befindet sich ca. 20 Minuten mit dem Auto vom Flughafen entfernt. FlugzeuglƤrm hƶrt man absolut nicht. Im Gegenteil, das Haus befindet sich auf einer Anhƶhe und liegt sehr ruhig. Riesiger Supermarkt in ca. 500 Meter Entfernung, da bekommt man alles. Nach Funchal mit Auto 15-20 Minuten. Sehr schƶne Altstadt. Insgesamt ist Madeira natĆ¼rlich ein Superziel zum Urlaub machen. Man kann ohne Ende wandern, baden oder viele andere Sachen erleben. Uns hat es jedenfalls sehr gefallen. Haus und Insel einfach empfehlenswert und Daumen hoch.

Schƶnes Haus mit Macken
Das Haus ist schƶn, jedoch sehr dunkel und kalt. Hochwertige Mƶbel und gute KĆ¼che. Bad mit freistehender Badewanne zwar originell, jedoch sehr unpraktisch, speziell nach Wanderung in der WƤrme Mit dem Garten riesigen kann man nicht so viel anfangen. Besonders negativ war jedoch, dass jeden Tag sehr laute Musik bis nachts um 2 drƶhnte und trotz geschlosser Fenster man nicht schlafen konnte.

OTTIMA ESPERIENZA, RELAX E CASA MERAVIGLIOSA
Ottima e inaspettata esperienza a Camacha. Stupenda villa tutta a disposizione, che mette a disposizione tutti i comfort. Zona molto tranquilla, molto fresca la sera. Il proprietario, Richard, e la moglie persone molto gentili e ospitali. Assolutamente consigliato.
