Villa holiday rentals in Madeira Island

Vielen Dank liebe Eigentümer der Villa Retiro! Wir reisen viel und wurden selten so herzlich und nett empfangen. Wir kamen am ersten Abend spät an und ärgerten uns, dass bereits alle Supermärkte geschlossen hatten. Jedoch hatten die Eigentümer bereits einen ersten "Grundeinkauf" mit Brot, Aufschnitt usw vorgenommen. Zudem wurde uns regionales Obst und Früchte, regionaler Honig und regionaler Wein zur Verfügung gestellt. Ein Traum den wir nicht erwartet hätten und selten geschieht! Nach einigen Tagen wurde die Unterkunft sogar gereinigt und mit neuer Bettwäsche und Handtüchern bestückt - dies ist selten bei Ferienunterkünften. Des Weiteren wurde uns ein selbstgemachter Maracujapudding mitgebacht, welcher wirklich sehr lecker war. Zur Unterkunft: Alles was das Herz bedarf ist vorhanden. Selbst Windeln, Waschmittel, Spielzeug usw war vorhanden. Ansonsten ist alles wie auf den Bilder und wir haben die geräumigen Zimmer, das Grundstück und den Pool genossen. Danke an die Gastgeber!

Fantastic Villa! Absolutely amazing view, perfect for watching sun set. Great amount of space. You would need a car to get around as it's a bit far from things and hard to walk up the hill. Well stocked kitchen but frying pans are very scratched, I hope they replace them soon. Great communication from the host. We wished we could stay longer!

Maison très bien située , sur les hauteurs de Ribeira Brava. La vue sur l'océan et la vallée est incroyable. Maison spacieuse bien équipée et très bien adaptée aux familles. Nous recommandons à 100% ! Merci Maria 🙏

Jose and Sofia are excellent communicators, extremely charming and helpful. The Villa is a great size, well equipped and very comfortable and although anyone staying would need a car, that is explained up front and therefore is not an issue. The view from inside and outside is spectacular. Funchal is only 45 minutes away so easily reachable and there are multiple Levadas in easy reach for walkers. Sofia gave us great tips on good walks and restaurants etc (The Fish Factory in Paul do Mar, 10 mins away is fantastic) and messaged us to warn us of impending bad weather and days when the Levadas were closed to walkers. Although it is unlikely that we would visit again as it is small island and we were there for 12 days in mixed weather so saw everything possible, including Opera and a Classical concert in Funchal, we have no hesitation in recommending this as a perfect getaway in a quiet location. Thank you both Ali and Mike😊😊xx

A beautiful house with stunning views, well equipped with plenty of space for everyone. Clive always responded quickly to any requests. The property is within 30mins of Funchal and perfect position to go and explore the coastline and mountains of Madeira Would thoroughly reccomend !

Incroyable logement, avec une superbe vue sur l'océan. Hôte accueillant, disponible et réactif. Je recommande les yeux fermés :-)

Wir haben die Villa von Jan für eine Woche gemietet und Jan als zuvorkommenden und tollen Vermieter kennengelernt. Das Haus entsprach ganz und gar unseren Wünschen und Vorstellungen und war wie auf dem Inserat beschrieben. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt - ausser einer Kaffeemaschine mit Kapselsystem. Aber auch die ist mittlerweile vorhanden ;-) Die Villa war sehr sauber samt allen Zimmern und Bädern war sehr sauber. Wir haben es sehr geschätzt, hatte jeder ein eigenes Bad und zwei der drei Schlafzimmer sogar Pool- und Meerblick. Die Küche ist riesig und hat uns so viel Freude bereitet, dass wir die ganze Woche nie ausgegangen sind zum Essen. Ein weiteres Highlight ist natürlich der Pool und die Lounge mit Meersicht wie der Grill (BBQ). Für uns als sehr aktive Sportler war die Waschmaschine genial; so konnten wir jeden Abend nach unseren sportlichen Aktivitäten waschen und mussten nicht so viel Kleidung von zuhause mitnehmen. Lange Rede, kurzer Sinn; es war einfach GENIAL. Thank you Jan

Beautiful house, amazing view, great location. The host super professional, easy contact. 5 stars! Thank you

Nice big property with plenty of room, perfect for 6 of us for a week. Great location in Funchal about a 30 minute walk down hill into the city. Had great views from the terraces across the city. Overall its in a fairly quiet location, you do get some road noise and dogs barking but nothing excessive, only what you would expect from staying in a city. The property was very clean, nice mix of modern and traditional interior, showers were excellent. The outside spaces all had good views although some of the furniture could do with updating but was still useable. It could do with a bit of tidying up on the patio but overall it was a nice space to sit and relax Tomas was an excellent host, very clear instructions, good communication and very responsive. I would happily stay at this property again in the future

Just returned from a 4 night stay at Kents apartment with a group of friends. Apartment was spacious with great views over Funchal. The apartment is around 10 minutes taxi drive or bus journey (takes a little longer) from the centre of Funchal or up to the tropical gardens at Monte. There is a little shop for essentials around 10 minutes walk away, just a step hill walk back up. Kent was an excellent communicator from first booking. Would definitely recommend.

This house is a dream coming true! They are the best hosts too. The only bad thing about that house is that I had to leave (lol). I would stay there many many times more. Lots of restaurants and groceries stores close. My family and I loved staying in there.

What an amazing 5* villa! We absolutely loved staying here. Everything about it was just wonderful - architect designed house, incredible view, super comfortable beds and great kitchen facilities. Plus easy parking in the garage underneath. Also Rita who met us there was so friendly and helpful. We would definitely like to return one day!

The property easily lives up to the description and the pictures. The houses are fully equipped, very nicely decorated and comfortable. The swimming pools offer stunning unobstructed views of the ocean during the day and of the sky at night. There are no road noises, the place is truly calm. Grocery stores are a few minutes away by car, as are restaurants. Numerous hikes can be found in the region. The host is very reactive and will provide many recommandations related to restaurants and activities. Renting both houses to two families is a great way to spend time together while also having some privacy. I would go back there without any hesitation.

There was a group of 8 of us and we had the most amazing stay! The location is super close to the airport and the main town making it easy to get around. It is very private house so it feels like your own secluded space. The access to the beach is stunning and the large deck with the pool, sauna and BBQ make a perfect space to hang for the day. Would 100% recommend staying here! Thank you 😊

Die Villa ist wirklich sehr schön. Wie auf den Bildern. Miguel ist ein sehr hilfsbereiter Vermieter. Es gab absolut nichts zu bemängeln. Alles super.

We spent 5 woderful days at the Rock Villas. The place is even more amazing than in the pictures. Fabrice was very nice and helpful in everything we needed. The pool was a great way to end the day. The place is also very well located with many things to do at a short ride away. We highly recommend it!

Beautiful place and very peaceful.

Magnificent Villa. Stunning views of the sea. Quiet and peaceful. Safe and private neighbourhood. Would recommend renting a car to get to other towns outside of Madalena de Sol. Roads are grand to drive especially if you are used to Irish roads. Would highly recommend Madeira.

Die Betreuung durch Jorge war präzise und gut. Die Betreuung vor Ort durch Rita und ihrem Mann waren exzellent, sehr hilfsbereit und sehr zufriedenstellend. Die Unterkunft ist sehr empfehlenswert.

Margarida is a fab villa, with lots of space and stunning view across the valley and ocean (especially seen from the pool). There were wild fires while we were there which created a layer of ash during a number of mornings on the ground and in the pool, the villa owner went out of his way to clean the pool in order that we could continue to us it. They are incredible kind, thoughtful, helpful and responded very quickly to all enquiries. The villa has all the usual facilities including a dish washer, hair dryers, coffee machine and ample size fridge and freezer. The outdoor eating area is spacious where we enjoyed many BBQs.

Вилла с шикарным видом и всем необходимым чтобы чувствовать себя как дома.

The house was super - very spacious and clean, beautiful views, and a well stocked kitchen. It is in a private and quiet area. The house keeper was very helpful in setting us up and responding to any questions we had. Highly recommended overall.

Heather ist eine unfassbar liebe und herzliche Gastgeberin. Wir haben uns direkt Zuhause gefühlt und hatten stets eine Ansprechpartnerin. Das Haus und das Außengelände sind schön und sehr gepflegt. Besonders der Blick auf das Meer hat uns gefallen. Wir sind dankbar für die Zeit und kommen sehr gerne wieder! ☺️

Sehr modernes Haus mit phänomenalem, traumhaften Ausblick. Sehr angenehme und schnelle Kommunikation mit der Gastgeberin. Einige Küchenutensilien waren nicht sauber. Sehr gute Lage, um Wander- bzw. Ausflugsziele zu erreichen. Die Straße ist allerdings tagsüber viel befahren, was hin und wieder etwas stört. Die Fenster sind jedoch sehr gut isoliert, so dass der Lärm kaum zu hören ist. Wir haben uns dort sehr wohl und wie zu Hause gefühlt.
