Make the most of Madeira

This well equipped and neatly laid out villa is a great family base, perfectly situated for accessing all parts of the island. Ribeira Brava has everything that the self-catering holiday maker needs. Views from the villa are always engaging and quick road routes mean you can head north for dramatic Atlantic waves, west for surf and dizzy decents, east for Funchal and tourist busyness. Madeira is a great destination and this property is a really reasonable base from which to enjoy it.

Lovely villa in a great spot, shame about a lot of problems

We have been to Maderia several times and love the island. The villa was well kept and in a great location, albeit quite a drive up the hill. The main problem was the pool was freezing. One of the main reasons for booking the villa was the heated pool and the children were very upset it was so cold as it cut short their enjoyment in the water. The local agent was not very helpful. She was rude when we contacted her about checking in, demanding check in time was 6.30pm despite it clearly saying 4pm on our documents. We agreed to meet her at 5pm as she couldn't come any sooner but she didn't arrive until 5.45pm. We had been up since 3am and had had a long day. When we were shown around we were told the washing machine was broken, a new one was provided but half way through the stay... it was clear she had known about this before we arrived. There was no BBQ and she said that was not her problem and there was clearly not going to be provided during the stay. There was also no toilet seat in the master bedroom's bathroom. She said she would get a new one, this never happened. In the end we contacted the property owner about the pool, who tried his best to help remotely but nothing seemed to happen and on the penultimate day we were told the pool heater was broken and they needed a new one. The owner has kindly agreed to a partial refund but we would have preferred a pool we could have enjoyed!

Non Heated Pool

I selected the property because of heated pool, however this was not the case, the surrounding sea was warmer, life buoy in unsafe condition, taxis will not use driveway ( too steep), no cushions for sunbeds, door stops in front of WC cause injury to foot, cooker dangerous frying pan toppled of gas ring spilling hot oil, does not get the sun by the pool until 11AM

October half term villa rental

Spacious well equipped family villa with fantastic views of mountain and sea. The location is very hilly with car hire essential as you need it to go anywhere. 10 minutes to Riviera Braves. 20 minutes to Funchal. Limited local amenities.

Great holiday

We had a lovely time in this house in Madeira. The pool and games room were a real bonus and the house was very spacious. The house is in a great part of the island only a short drive from Funchal. One minor issue was quickly sorted by the housekeeper. We recommend the dolphin watching and the many levada walks on the island.
