Top Hotels Near Church of Our Lady of Light in Ponta do Sol from AU$95

"We just returned from a wonderful trip to Madeira. We spent about 3 weeks in Ponta do Sol in this wonderful villa - Casa Araujo.We loved the view from the house. The house was clean, check-in and communication with host were excellent. he wifi extenders were replaced when we pointed out that they weren’t working. The location was very quiet. We were in great shape from walking into town and back daily during our 3 week visit. We’ll definitely miss the workout when we return home! Very convenient location for driving around the island. All the restaurants in Ponta do Sol were excellent. We look forward to returning to Madeira, as this was our first visit."

"Front desk staff were very helpful arranging taxis for hikes. Seaview room was very spacious and bed was very comfortable Breakfast had a good variety of food. Tile in swimming pool was very slippery."

"It was noisy but the hotel is very close to the ocean. "

"Staff were kind, courteous and helpful in the entire hotel. This is a gem of a place to staystaybeautiful view "

"The hotel is fairly high up the hillside, so the drive up is exciting! The hotel itself is amazing. We had a great corner room and balcony with amazing sea and valley views. The staff were very friendly. The only downside was the restaurant was only open for breakfast during our stay, so dinners had to be elsewhere. "

"Beautiful place to stay :)"

"All was very good, lovely clean house and great island. "

"Property was a very good size, well equipped kitchen and plenty of spare towels and bedding. The host was brilliant with information for getting there, and we saw her quite a few times and she always asked if everthing was ok, even contacting us to let us know we had left the car lights on. There was a parking spot for us, and we would recommend hiring a car. The view from the balcony was amazing, it was the perfect getaway for us."

"Positives - The villa is very nice, the decor and furnishings are lovely and the view is stunning. All the bedrooms are a really good size, large comfortable lounge and the kitchen is well equipped. 'The Den' is fantastic if you have children staying, we had many hours of fun playing table tennis. The outside balconies run around the property on the coastal side and provide great spaces for enjoying the sun, or just getting away to read.Tips - access down the very steep driveway could be daunting for some. You can park at the top of the drive and walk down the side steps. I found it easier to reverse down the drive as turning space by the garage is tight.Having a car is a must for this property, the walk down to Ponta do Sol is possible but its steep and there are few pathways.Negatives - we arrived on a Thursday and found the indoor pool was freezing (unusable). Friday morning we were informed that the day prior to arrival a new pool heating pump was installed (fine with that things break) and the pool would not be useable for 48 hours (we should have been informed, as this work was obviously planned). The technician did not return until Tuesday to turn the new pump on (lost 6 days use of the pool, and yes I did chase everyday for an update). When it was turned on I was then informed there is a 40 euro per day charge, this should have been stated in the booking information. Overall great villa but the lose of the pool for most of our stay and the hidden charge is poor."
