Fabulous!

We stayed in this lovely house in late November 2022. It was extremely clean and had every kitchen appliance you could need. Tons of natural light, and we opened all the doors to get the cross breezes (since the weather was beautiful the whole time). The bathroom was very clean and the water pressure was good. The best pics we took were right off the terrace....views were awesome, no sunset was the same, and they were all incredible. Carlos, our caretaker was very friendly (he even helped my husband change a tire on our rental car), popped by to water the grass/plants (and let us know when he got there), & also came by the night before we left to say good-bye. There is a locking gate at the driveway, and the house was very secure. While we're used to barking dogs, the rooster(s) were another matter! While they weren't super bothersome (all part of the charm), they may startle you in the (VERY) early hours of the morning! The only problem a new guest may have is actually finding the house; your GPS will take you well past it, and when you turn around you have to look for the house number by the gate...the house roof is actually (almost) ground level to the street and blocked by the gate so, easy to miss (we weren't the only ones, a taxi came to take us to our excursion meeting place, and she passed it as well). We had a wonderful stay in this house and would highly recommend it!

Presque un rêve, tant c'est inimaginable de se retrouver comme chez soi dans une telle maison ! La première chose qui saisit depuis l'extérieur et une fois entrés dans la maison c'est une vue immense entièrement dégagée, comme depuis un vaisseau, avec l'océan en face de soi et les reliefs ascendants des montagnes sur les côtés. C'est ensuite un espace intérieur ample, qui offre différentes zones selon l'activité et le goût de chacun, et qui donne sur l'océan et les reliefs montagneux du fait des grandes baies vitrées. Les diverses pièces sont disposées de façon claire et agréable, la cuisine offre tous les appareils et objets utiles, les matelas sont de bonne qualité. Il existe un chauffage au sol, que nous avons évité d'utiliser. Ce qui nous est apparu au départ comme une limite, à savoir la distance depuis Calheta, les restaurants, Pingo doce, ne l'est pas en réalité, car la route se fait rapidement (en moins de dix minutes). Le contact avec Carlos a été simple et en toute confiance, accoutumés que nous sommes à Madeira, notamment Calheta et Paúl do Mar, où nous séjournons chaque année plusieurs semaines depuis une quinzaine d'années. Le lien avec les propriétaires a été simple et efficace.

Wunderschönes Ferienhaus

Wir haben den Aufenthalt im Höfner-Ferienhaus von der ersten bis zur letzten Sekunde genossen. Die Terrasse mit dem Blick aufs Meer ist umwerfend und wir haben uns daran nicht sattsehen können.Das Haus war blitzsauber, vor Ort hat uns Carlos sehr liebevoll empfangen und uns in alles eingeführt. Bei kleineren Fragen stand er stets parat, er kam während unserer Zeit bisweilen auf das Gelände, um die Außenanlagen zu versorgen; auch die Schwägerin des Besitzers hat zwischenzeitlich nach uns gesehen und gefragt, ob wir mit allem versorgt sind.Das Haus ist sehr zweckdienlich und liebevoll, wohnlich eingerichtet und sehr geräumig, die Kücheneinrichtung ist sehr umfassend. Die Abfahrt auf das Grundstück ist recht steil, aber mit etwas Übung kann man sie rückwärts gut bewältigen, rauf ist dann einfach.Tagsüber kann es heiß werden, abends / nachts kühlt es aber sehr schön ab - mit den beiden Sonnenschirmen kann man die Terrasse gut zu allen Tageszeiten nutzen, aber ein Verbesserungsvorschlag wären in den Schlafzimmern Insektenschutzfenster bzw. -türen, um die Fenster bzw. Schiebetüren auch nachts offen lassen zu können. Im großen Schlafzimmer gibt es eine Klimaanlage.Die Gegend ist recht dicht besiedelt mit Menschen und Tieren, man ist also nicht gerade einsam, aber die Geräusche der Zivilisation haben uns nicht gestört. Ein Auto ist unbedingt notwendig, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind nicht fußläufig erreichbar. Der Standort ist sehr gut geeignet für Ausflüge in alle Richtungen.

Villa con fantásticas vistas al océano

Pudimos disfrutar de una excelente estancia con muy buena ubicación y tranquilidad. Limpieza impecable. Carlos, la persona encargada de darnos las llaves, muy atento y agradable. Se preocupó en todo momento de que no nos faltara de nada.Por poner algo negativo, que no las camas no tenían sábanas, solo tenían un edredón. Para nosotros fue bastante incómodo dormir así, acostumbrados a dormir siempre en una cama con sábanas, algo normal, por lo menos en España y Portugal. Carlos intentó ayudarnos, pero el anfitrión no disponía de sábanas, ya que las camas siempre las viste sólo con un edredón.Creemos que este punto debería mejorarse y dar la opción a los huéspedes de tener sábanas, para quien suela dormir con ellas.
