    Excellent overall. Especially liked that it was in a quiet rural area but only a minute away from the main highway. House was well equipped. A great place to be based to explore the west side of the island. The only downside is that it's a bit of a drive for groceries but not a major issue.

    Irina was amazing. The home was cozy and exactly what we expected. It was special to stay in a 100 year old school house. The neighborhood is near a Levada for a nice walk. It is close to Calheta which is a great place to swim and stroll.

    Irina is incredibly kind and welcoming… from the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease.The house is located in a peaceful area a bit higher up, which makes it pleasantly cool, even on warmer days. Everything was spotlessly clean and well organized, and you can really see how much care she puts into the place.Irina also knows the island very well… if you’re looking for tips or ideas for your trip, she’s happy to help and gives great advice. And as a little bonus, her sweet dogs might stop by now and then to say hello … they’re just as friendly as she is.

    We spent 10 nights in this wonderfully adapted old school house. The atmosphere is calm and inviting. We were happily greeted by Irena our host and received a kind and wonderful welcome! The house was spotless and is well appointed. Everything you could need is available and Irena will work to make your stay enjoyable if you do find you need anything. Ceilings are low and the bed is short if your a tall person like me, but certainly doesn’t hold back the property or experience!

    Irina and her beautiful dog Enola, gave us a lovely welcome. The house is cozy and beautiful. The location is perfect if you want to go to the Levada Hikes and the Natural pools. I highly recommend it!

    We had a fantastic time staying here, and our trip to Madeira wouldnt have been the same without Irinia and Inola, who gave us fantastic recommendations! Thoroughly recommend :)

    It was really great! Irina is very kind. She knows a lot about Madeira en what to do. Enola (her German shepherd) is also a lovely girl. We had an amazing stay. The house was clean and cozy. The location is not ideal if you don’t hire a car. But also not a problem if you have a rental car. Then it is very do-able We have no bad things to say about our stay!
