Casa do Poço II - Villa with pool and sea view

Wunderbar!

We had a very nice time at Casa Do Poço. The hosts were very friendly and helpfull. We enjoyed the view from the rooftop and were very happy with the availability of a clean swimming pool.

Luiz and Isabel were very welcoming and the photographs show their beautiful property with a lovely pool with a long deck overlooking Funchal which was misleading as this was not the apartments outlook. The apartment was clean but was dated and gloomy as there was only one window which was in the living area, the bedroom had no natural light or ventilation. So it was necessary to have a dehumidifier on during the day. There was no sound proofing between the apartments and as our bedroom adjoined the living area of the next apartment we were woken early in the morning by loud voices, scrapping furniture and rattling crockery. The kitchen was not suitably equipped for a long stay as there was no oven and with the lack of preparation space we had very limited cooking options. We were also concerned about the number of electrical extension cables running multiple devices which could be a fire hazard. So taking the above into account we did not feel it was good value for money

Great place, lovely people

The appartement is very well decorated and we enjoyed especially the nice pool. Our host Luiz was always very helpful and friendly. Only negative point: The appartement is located directly at the street, therefore it is quite noisy.

I came with my husband for 5 days in Funchal. The place is perfect to relax after a full visit or hiking day in Madeire. The beautiful view from the terrace, the swimming pool, the rooftop are peaceful.The bungalow is written for 4. I find it perfect for 2 as the bedroom has no window and one needs to keep the door open with the living room. The description and pictures of the bungalow and shared property are exact, the place is super clean and beautiful. Moreover Isabel and Luiz are very reactive to any question. I recommend without hesitation.

Casa do Poco II was the perfect accomodation for our 10 day stay in Madeira. It answered precisely to the online description, but exceeded our expectations. The three bungalows are cleverly organized in the host grounds to ensure privacy. Although they share bathing and sunbathing facilities with the hosts, Luiz and Isabel, it was very relaxed and there was never a feeling that we were in the way. The bungalow was clean, comfortable and cosy with all the facilities we needed. The views from the terraces are stunning. Its location in a neigbourhood on one of the hills above Funchal gave it a very authentic feel, and the local bars and restaurants were good and friendly. We didn’t rent a car, but the local and urban public transport worked very well. The bus ride up and down to Funchal was an experience in itself. Luiz was very helpful with tips about restaurants and places to visit etc. We followed his advice, and it was never wrong. Thank you for that! If you are looking to experience Madeira and Funchal away from the tourist hotels of the Lido area, we can certainly recommend Casa do Poco. We certainly intend to return to Madeira and, when we do, we will happily come back. Jane and Peter Wesenberg, Oslo, Norway October 2020
