"It was all above our expectations. We were made made so welcome"

"A really enjoyable continental breakfast, friendly staff and clean. When we got the room I thought I'd booked, with double bed and sea views, I was delighted, the owner was very helpful"

"Super close to the airport, beautiful sunrise view before breakfast"

"No problems, though be aware there is no reception of any sort. Parking is hit or miss, be prepared to park a few hundred metres away. One needs to be able to negotiate stairs (may be an issue to some)."

"Très bel appartement, tout était parfait !"

"Please note that this review is for the Hotel Solar do Bom Jesus in Santa Cruz - I was asked to move to this hotel when Hotel Amparo requested that I move to their sister hotel due to short-notice issues with the hotel. This was fine for me and it was handled very well by both hotels."

"Villa Bahari (named Villa Moniz on the house itself) is located on the windy side of Madeira with beautiful ocean views and easy access to PR8 hike along Ponta Sao Lourenco and water excursions departing from the Quinta do Lorde marina, like snorkeling in summer or whale watching in winter. The home is exceptionally large with almost too much living space to enjoy - would be great for a large party. Due to the wind, we were never able to enjoy the outdoor kitchen or dining area, and the firepit had no fuel and seemed to be a potential fire hazard due to the high wind and proximity to dry brush all around, so we avoided that. When we got to the villa, there was a terrible odor like smelled like sewage and mildew. We thought maybe it was due to dry water traps in the showers/sinks/toilets, so tried to go around and run the water for a few seconds in each room. But there was no water in the house. After multiple calls back and forth with property management, they were able to get someone to come out and get the water resumed on a Saturday evening, thank goodness. When we’re finally able to run water to all of the traps (along with opening all of the windows) we were hoping the smell would dissipate but it really never did. You become “nose blind” after a bit but as soon as you leave and come back, it’s still there. We cannot recommend this house for that reason. "
