My room had a wonderful view of the trees and mountains and it was very comfortable. The decor of the room and bathroom were a perfect blend of rustic and modern. The room was also exceptionally clean - Filipa does a wonderful job of keeping the house clean and tidy and is also so lovely and caring! Ruben was also very responsive to any questions or concerns. Will definitely stay again!

The kitchen could do with some updates. I know most people probably eat dinner in the village, but for travellers wanting to cook whilst at the guesthouse the kitchen facilities could be improved.

Everything at this venue is designed to make you feel comfortable and welcome. The breakfasts are amazing and I loved the shared table. The sofa area with a wood fire is so lovely area at the end of the day. I often ended up taking about walking routes and other activities. The bedroom and bathroom were super clean and carefully detailed. Every interaction with Reuben and the Surf Lodge Family was lovely. As a solo female traveller I felt safe and cared for.

The house and location is beautiful. Incredible views over the mountains and to the sea. The gardens of the property are wonderful. It felt like a little bit of paradise. The room was really nice and comfortable, the bathroom clean. We organised a surf lesson with the owner which was easy and very fun. Breakfast was good, help yourself with lots of options. We had a great stay here.

The room could have benefited from more surfaces to place belongings on. For example, a shelf in the bathroom and a bench in the bedroom, and hooks to hang towels on to dry. There was a minor issue with ants. Walls are a little thin in the main house so you can hear the next room but wasn't a huge issue for us.

Everything was great - especially the vibe and possibly to meet and discuss the planned trails with other super friendly people who came for hiking. The rooms were very clean and nicely furnished with comfy beds and very nice bathroom with all facilities. Breakfast was amazing, you for sure won't start your day hungry. Sitting at the chimney in the evening to dry off the clothes after a hike was a great addition. The owners and staff were always ready to help. Really great place for solo travellers!

Very nice garden. Lots of flowers and amazing view of the mountains . Room was small but had exterior with chairs and table . Was a good place for 2 nights. Most of the people were staying for a long time there and doing surf lessons. Breakfast was ok, taken together with the other guests at the main house big table. Feeling of being in a hostel.

No instructions for breakfast. It was just mentioned to go at the main house for it, but nothing else on how to handle things . We asked other people how things work.

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.

Nothing like this, all location, accommodation, and breakfast were more than I expected. Truly recommended for those who love nature and peace.

I loved the breakfasts - super varied. Lots of pastries, fruit, cereal, eggs, bread and cheese. The staff were lovely and accommodating The location was great, only a 10/15 min walk to the seafront and restaurants (and supermarket) The room was clean and comfortable! A great shower! I enjoyed the terrace where I could read in peace and look at the mountains A cute cat visited the garden every evening

Nothing!

We really liked that the accommodation was located in the valley, you wake up with beautiful views everyday. The room was basic but clean and big enough for a few days. The bathroom was clean, maybe a few more towels would've been nice for a longer stay (We stayed for 4 nights). Breakfast was really good, nice to meet some other travelers and chat. Next to the accommodation there is enough parking space.

No complaints whatsoever the accommodation. However we liked the Southside of Madeira a bit more because there is less rain :-)

My stay was fantastic! The house is located in a quite village surrounded by mountains and greenery. Inside, it's cozy and comfortable, making it the perfect place to relax. The breakfast was rich and varied, offering many options. Ruben was a kind and attentive host, also in organizing surf lessons. I totally recommend this place!

For me the best place to visit Madeira. Central to reach all the parts of the Island. And the place is so beautiful. Wonderful garden, the house is very nice and my room was so beautiful and confortable, recently renovated and all was so clean ! Very good breakfast every morning. And surf lessons were so great. I really enjoy to stay here and if I come back to Madeira for sure I'll come back here again ! Thanks again Andreia and Ruben for your kindness, you contributed to my great vacations in this wonderful island that Madeira is.
