Casa dos Terços by An Island Apart, hotel in São Vicente

Located in São Vicente in the Madeira Islands region, Casa dos Terços by An Island Apart features a balcony.

The house was ideal for us, 3 adults, as we could have one bedroom each. That way there was enough space in the bedrooms, with double occupancy it might have been a bit of a squeeze. For a family of 5 or 6 it would also be fine. The house is spacious and has a very nice seasoned, lived-in, and somehow British touch, dating back to the beginning of the 20th century, where the family of the landlady had lived in for many decades and really made it a very comfortable home. It is well equipped, with plenty of dishes, plates and glasses, etc. as you can only find in a house that was really lived in, and not just done up on a small budget for rental. The house is airy and dry, which is not an easy accomplishment on this island, especially in autumn. There is plenty of space in the kitchen, the dining area, the sitting room, and very importantly also on the various terraces all around the house. The house is situated in a nice garden with interesting plants and which is still nicely maintained. The location is beautiful. Not easy to find on your own, so you should take the offer of the landlady to lead you there. Once found, access is easy, also the parking. It is very quiet all around, just a few animals in the early morning, no noise from neighbors or any traffic. Also, there is a nice view down onto the ocean, so you immediately get the feeling that this is a wonderful location for a holiday. Ponta Delgada is not the hub of activity on the island, but it is not very touristy, so nice and calm. Access to most parts of the island are vey easy and quick from here. Therefore an ideal base for all kinds of tours.

Casa Conduto, hotel in São Vicente

Set in Ponta do Sol and only 2.2 km from Ponta do Sol Beach, Casa Conduto offers accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking.

The house is big, very comfortable for 8 people, I could even say it easily fits 10 people. The whole property is beautiful. The house is beautifully made, it has a large kitchen with big windows, a big living room, nice bedrooms, one of them even with its own bathroom. Maybe the best part is the very very nice view from the backyard. The host was helpful and communicate. We had a really good time.

Vivenda Por do Sol, hotel in São Vicente

Set in Ponta do Sol in the Madeira Islands region, Vivenda Por do Sol has a patio and pool views.

Villa is huge and well equipment. You have everything there what you need. (Even slippers and hiking sticks!) You can enjoy the sun and take a dip in an amazing outdoor swimming pool with the incredible view of the village and the ocean. The view is just breathtaking. Ana’s place has a private big parking in front of the house. You have to drive down from the main street, just be careful because GPS was leading us around, from the other side throughout a narrow banana trees alley where you can't pass😅

Villa Alta Vista, hotel in São Vicente

Boasting mountain views, Villa Alta Vista offers accommodation with balcony, around 6.9 km from Santana's traditional houses. With garden views, this accommodation provides a patio.

We stayed here for two weeks. There’s a fully equipped kitchen (stove, fridge, kettle, toaster, microwave, drip coffee machine) with all the pans, utensils, spatulas and cork openers you will ever need. We were pleased to find basic spices, salt, pepper and olive oil already there. Sabino also took care of having coffee, coffee filters, tea, sugar etc. In the kitchen there’s also washing machine with basic detergents available. In the connected living room there’s a big TV, air dehumidifier with a dryer option, a sofa and a table. If someone thinks of remote working there’s also a desk and good internet connection with WiFi. From the balcony we could see the ocean and Porto Santo and from the windows in the living room the mountains. In the garden there’s a place to grill. The bedroom has a large, comfortable bed, cupboard and a hanging rack. We really liked the walk-in shower in the bathroom. House is situated in a very good location, close to the highway and close to many famous and beautiful Levadas (ex. Do Rei, Caldeirão Verde). Apart from that, the biggest upside are the lovely hosts! Sabino greeted us with a basket of local fruits (homegrown in their garden), local sweets and wine! He explained where everything is and how it works. He gave us frequent insight on the weather and guided us to local attractions and hikes. We felt like at home. Couldn’t recommend more!

    The accommodation was a hidden unique place with a beautiful garden and view of mountains, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. This space was truly remarkable and good for nature lovers and slow travelers. The location is perfect, offering easy access to Sao Vicente downtown while maintaining a peaceful and quiet environment.

    This house and its sorroundings is a little paradise in madeira, plenty of hiking paths and peaceful idyll. The host Paolo and his daughter Ana are very friendly and helpful and can give good directions of the area. I hope to come back someday to stay in this magic place again. até à próxima !

    For us it was perfect- calm, quiet , peaceful and very well equipped. Parking right in front of the house. Great host! A lot of useful info about Madeira in the house. Good location for exploring the island. Nice garden terrace with great views - both of ocean and the mountains. It's quite near the city and there is also a snack bar few hundred meters nearby for quick bite or a drink.

    This was out favourite place in Madeira. The owner did a fantastic work and renovation. A true gem for the agriculture tourism of the island. Spectacular 360 view of the mountaints. Super clean and quiet luxury made with good taste. Modern sauna and pool at your convenience, best way to relax after ling hikes. Well though details. Breakfast was good but for dinned you have to eat at the restaurants outside by the port (5m away with car). Friendly staff and local products

    The place is really quiet and peaceful - it's great to relax and forget about the busy city. The view is amazing! The rooms are really nice. They're comfy and cozy with everything you need to feel at home, but the best part is the terrace with garden. It's like a special outdoor area where you can sit and eat. From there, you can see everything even better. It's perfect for having breakfast while enjoying the view. The hosts are super helpful and polite!

    Really comfortable and clean with little kitchen area with everything you need and excellent shower. Beautiful scenic location of the mountains and clock tower and some view of the sea. Very quiet and peaceful. Really nice outdoor pool with no one else using it when we were there and just two other small apartments.

    A great place, an excellent city. Very quiet and peaceful. If you've rented a car, you'll love this place. Lush greenery surrounds the house, and there's a splendid view of the sea. The house appears to be of an older style, which justifies the touch of time that you can feel in the faint scent of antiquity. A couple of small shops are in close proximity. Apart from that, I would recommend it
