Everything! This place is beautiful, peacefull, quiet at night. It is spotless clean. I would describe it as luxury rural tourism at its best. The location is great, you could sit by the pool all day and look at the mountains and bananas. Its a good position in almost the centre of the island for exploring. Good restaurants and one levada with tunnels around also. And finally, ladies who work there are awesome. They do an amazing job and make you feel like at home. They helped us with everything and for us they made this stay completely fantastic. I travel a lot and this was my top three stay ever. Thank you! P.s. breakfast was abundand and top notch with local food and beds are super comfy

Holidays Madeira is 18th century house located in São Vicente's city centre, northern shore of the Madeira Island. The São Vicente Chapel is 850 metres away. Free WiFi access is available.

The terrace offers panoramic views of the surroundings and is the perfect place to start the day with a reinvigorating breakfast. For a taste of the local gastronomy, guest can visit the restaurants in the vicinity within 300 metres.

The Holidays Madeira is in the old building and it is the part of tiny old town. You can easily observe local live and enjoy the nature around you. I love São Vicente and levadas there. I recommend this part of the island more than the South. Frederic is so nice, he is really helpful and he is eager to tell you a lot about Madeira. And he takes cleaning seriously :) You can eat on the terrace, you have microwave & fridge. It is simple but I love it. There are only two rooms so it is intimately. It is radiator which is a big plus when you are there during the autumn/winter.

Estalagem Corte do Norte is located in Ponta Delgada, 40.5 km from Funchal and 7 km from São Vicente. Guests can enjoy the on-site restaurant. Free WiFi is available and free private parking is available on site.

The location is good, specially if you own a car, if you don't it is more complicated. You can use this place as a good base to explore the north part. Rooms are tidy and well cleaned every day. You just can't find a better host than Paulo, he can give 1000 ideas on nearby trails, inform you about the transport, even prepare the breakfast when you have early hikes in the morning. Thank you for everything Paulo and hope to see you again!

    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.

    The view of the mountains from the window was very beautiful. The location was very pleasant and quiet. Breakfast is pretty much the same every morning (fresh bread, ham, cheese, yogurt and something sweet) plus fresh fruit. The host is very friendly and does laundry if necessary. Wifi is available, but may not always work flawlessly (connection is better in public areas).

    Fantastic location, with tents situated in a beautiful garden (banana trees, passion fruit, cucumbers) . The place is Very quiet at night. There is both an indoor- and an outdoor kitchen with BBQ/grill, with all the amenities, and the toilets and showers are modern and very clean. Christina is a great host, and very quick in responding to any questions. The place is a great location from where to explore the whole island. Seixal blacksand beach is just 15 minutes away! Would definitely stay again!

    Really beautiful house a bit outside of the city of Sao Vicente. Great location for doing hikes in the area and super quiet area to stay in. There were nice common areas - it was more like a house than a hotel so we had use of the kitchen, patio, and living room. Really beautiful area and a friendly host!
