Quinta Marefe - On the stunning west coast
This is how AirBNB should be. The house is stacked with everything. How often are you in an Airbnb and they only have 6 plates? Here they have 20+, they have Great knives, tons of kitchenware, enough toilet paper, plenty of dishwasher tabs and also cleaner for the washing machine. Things you normally expect but somehow got lost in the making money machine Airbnb is now. Not here!! A absolute crazy welcome basket (have not had such a big one ever), friendly crew and absolute amazing place - can only recommend

Allure Alannas Villa by LovelyStay
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was exactly like the description in every way and it often exceeded expectations. Spotlessly clean and amazing views out to sea. I would book again.

Luxury Villa in City Center Private Pool & Rooftop
Really lovely accommodation with great views. The host was very responsive and was super helpful when we had a bit of an emergency. Highly recommended.

5 Bedroom Villa for family or friends
Well-maintained, spacious, pleasant house not far (about 15 to 20 minutes) from the supermarket, restaurant, Funchal, Pico do Areeiro, airport…. Very kind and responsive host. I really recommend it.

Cristiano Ronaldo Airport View
Amazing house ! Highly recommend!

Morning Glory - Penthouse
It was a fantastic place to stay with a great view from the balcony! Thank you for having us!

CasadaOvelha 2, modern & spacious villa in Calheta
Our stay was really nice. The place corresponded exactly to the description and photos. Julien was a very nice communicative host who gave good tips for the island. The apartment is spacious, clean and well equipped. The road to the property is quite steep. You should therefore rent a suitable car. There is a construction site near the property, which can occasionally be heard. However, this did not significantly disrupt our stay, as we were traveling during the day. We can only recommend the place.

Santa Cruz Ocean Villa - sea access
There was a group of 8 of us and we had the most amazing stay! The location is super close to the airport and the main town making it easy to get around. It is very private house so it feels like your own secluded space. The access to the beach is stunning and the large deck with the pool, sauna and BBQ make a perfect space to hang for the day. Would 100% recommend staying here! Thank you 😊

Ohana Ocean View by LovelyStay
We absolutely loved our stay in Madeira! The property was incredibly clean—honestly one of the cleanest places we've ever stayed. Everything was spotless and so well maintained. The welcome gifts were such a thoughtful touch—local produce that gave us a warm introduction to the island. The house had everything we needed, from great coffee to handy extras like Tupperware, which made day trips really convenient. The sunsets from the property were absolutely stunning—something we looked forward to every evening. The location was great for accessing shops and restaurants nearby, but we’d definitely recommend having a car to explore more of the island comfortably. All in all, a fantastic stay. We’d return in a heartbeat!

Villas Fauna & Flora - Nature & Tranquility - Infinity Pool
The property easily lives up to the description and the pictures. The houses are fully equipped, very nicely decorated and comfortable. The swimming pools offer stunning unobstructed views of the ocean during the day and of the sky at night. There are no road noises, the place is truly calm. Grocery stores are a few minutes away by car, as are restaurants. Numerous hikes can be found in the region. The host is very reactive and will provide many recommandations related to restaurants and activities. Renting both houses to two families is a great way to spend time together while also having some privacy. I would go back there without any hesitation.

Luxury villa for 6 to 8 people, full ocean view
Karine and her family have been super sweet and helpful. We were a family of 6 spanning several generations, and the house is perfect for this. Highly recommended. Everything was new and worked flawlessly. Best recommendations from Kenneth.

Casa Crerital - By Wehost
The house is extremely well located, in a quiet area with a stunning sea view. It is the ideal place to rest and enjoy the scenery. The house is equipped with everything needed for a comfortable and worry-free stay. It was a great experience — I highly recommend it!

Blue Sea Tower & Guest Villa. Private Heated Pool
Blue Sea Tower & Guest Cottage in Fajã da Ovelha is a unique place that offers a unique experience. Nestled amongst breathtaking landscapes, it provides guests with peace and quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The property combines modern amenities with the charm of traditional Maderian architecture while offering spectacular ocean and mountain views. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and decorated to a high standard, and the space itself is well-equipped, which makes your stay a real pleasure. An additional advantage is the heated pool, which allows you to enjoy relaxation all year round, no matter the weather. The owners and staff are extremely welcoming, taking care of every detail so that guests feel at home. Blue Sea Tower & Guest Cottage is the perfect place for those seeking a respite surrounded by nature, while appreciating comfort, high quality service, and additional amenities. It's a real pearl on Madeira's map!

Amazing villa FUNCHAL, panoramic sea view
Beautiful, clean, open and inviting home! Jeanne and her family were wonderful hosts! Quick and easy trip into Funchal but so nice to have the privacy! Thank you so much!!

Islander - Funchal Seaside Villas
We stayed at Patricia’s villa for 9 days and had a great time. The view overlooking the ocean with the infinity pool was beautiful! We loved waking up to this gorgeous view each morning. It was also a plus that we had the use of house cleaners that came during our stay to make the place extra tidy after we stayed halfway through! All the balcony’s outside connected and lead directly to the downstairs pool. There’s also a “secret” access to the bottom of the cliff which was very cool! Everything was perfect! All in, I’d give this a 5 star stay, everyone was extremely happy and we would definitely stay again in the future! Thank you for hosting us

Heated Pool • Gym • BBQ • Luxury • Outdoor Dining
Beautiful house overlooking Funchal & ocean. House was well equipped with everything you may need during your stay (pool towels, baby high chair, gym equipment, fresh linens & very well stocked kitchen appliances). Short drive to shops & restaurants. The house is on a steep hill, you will likely need a car to get around town. Host was responsive and communicative. Would stay again.

Villa Boa Nova Branca by LovelyStay
Great Views of Funchal and a comfortable holiday home. Exellect base to go hiking. Thanks!!

Casa Escola da Bica, Infinity pool, lovely seaview
We were completely satisfied with our stay. The property is in an extremely quiet location and offers ideal conditions for relaxing days. The apartment itself is very well equipped and impresses with a charming outdoor kitchen as well as several cozy seating areas – nothing is really missing here. The pool was also a definite highlight. Jorge is an outstanding host. Particularly noteworthy are: - a detailed and easy-to-understand description of how to get there - his availability at all times - Fast and reliable communication - Excellent restaurant recommendations - wonderful hiking suggestions We highly recommend this place and thank Jorge for his hospitality.

Quinta São Lourenço≈≈≈ Casa Palheiro ≈≈≈
We had a wonderful stay here! Incredible views. Everything you could need in the AirBnb. Very quick wifi. And great local recommendations for hikes and restaurants. Thanks again.

Villa Lara, sea views, heated Pool A/C
The stunning villa overlooks the east facing mount of Calheta to the sea and has gorgeous sunsets! The place is impeccably clean and tastefully decorated. To have a pool to relax in after a day exploring, watching the sunset is a memory I will revere!

Casa das Bromélias, a Home in Madeira
Wow! Where to start? The whole place was absolutely amazing, so much space and so private - we had the best holiday. The best part of the whole trip (especially for the kids) was the swimming pool - we were in the pool for up to 2 hours some evenings (would definitely recommend taking the option to get it heated), and being able to eat on the decking right next to the pool was perfect too. Would also recommend hiring a car (as we did) to get into Funchal, around the island or to the local shops....

Villa Noelia Ocean View
Amazing property! Loved every moment of the stay. Airbnb fully equipped with everything you need. Marco the host was wonderful and really helped us and made us feel welcomed and offered local spots and helped with everything we needed. Defo recommend and will come back again. Thank you very much for having us

Maison Du Soleil: swimming pool, sea view, mountain and village
We had wonderful days at the property and would book them again anytime. There was everything you needed and very clean.

Cliff Ocean Sunset - Villa 3
We had the most amazing stay, I'll be honest when we booked this we felt it was a bit to good to be true and was expecting it to not look as good as the photos...but wow the photos don't do it justice. The views were breathtaking, our villa was completely private and so peaceful. We loved watching the sunset every night and waking up to the view of the ocean from our bed in the morning. There's lots of really pretty wildlife to see too. I would definitely recommend renting a car to get around because it is out in the mountains. Sofia was a really good host, she was at the property when we arrived, really lovely and helpful. She sent lots of recommendation to us for places to explore and places to eat. We'd spent 3 days in Funchal before travelling out to the mountains. This Airbnb made our trip to Madeira so so special.
