House was lovely. We enjoyed our stay very much. Had a slight problem on arrival and the owner came right over and handed it immediately. We would definitely stay there again.

Joao thank you so much for your hospitality, will definitely be back!

The property is a stunning contemporary in a tremendous location about 15 minutes from both the airport and Funchal. Don’t think twice, book it.

A wonderful place. As some reviews say: the pictures don’t do it justice, maybe because it so nicely proportioned the size doesn’t come across. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, but a stone’s throw from a gorgeous beach & Cristo Rei. João was quick to answer every message.

Beautiful house with breathtaking views! Our group of 6 loved our stay. The common areas are extremely spacious and comfortable. We loved coming home at the end of the day and having a glass of wine on the patio while watchibg the stars shine over the ocean waves. Waking up to see the sunrise through the living room’s glass wall or the pool patio was breathtaking. The owner was extremely responsive to all questions about our stay. Loved it and would love to go back!

This property is AMAZING!! Even better and bigger than it looks in the images. It is huge!! Very comfortable, very high spec.. Staying in this property felt like being on a film set. Very glamorous. The views are stunning. The furniture and facilities are as good as you can get. The pool is perfect. A five star stay!! Fantastic. Good local grocery shops and little cafes. Everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Great place to enjoy all Madeira has to offer

This house is in the most incredible location, it looks out over the Atlantic with the statue of Cristo Rei directly in your line of sight. It is well equipped and feels very secure and safe. The pool was really lovely just the right size for a cooling plunge. The local facilities are really good, a couple of nice cafés, restaurants, a greengrocer, supermarket and a car rental office. We are already talking about when we’re going to return. A huge “thank you” to Jōao for all the info he passed on prior to our visit and for being on call should we have needed his help.

Top House

Upon arrival, we were very pleased with the accommodation. We had invited our son and his partner to be our guests at the villa as we hadn’t seen our son since his move to Portugal almost a year and a half ago. As the other reviews have described, the house is beautiful, modern and spacious. The view of the ocean and the sunsets from the deck are lovely. Unfortunately, we wound up having a similar experience as some previous guests on this site re. the pool not being heated as advertised. Prior to our arrival we requested through our travel agent that the pool be heated as we were only going to be there for 5 days, and as seniors, my husband and I find a heated pool easier on us. She was assured that the pool would be heated. Unfortunately when we arrived we found that the pool was ice cold. We informed the owner instantly and over the next 5 days, my son dealt with the owner on our behalf. He was told the situation would be rectified and unfortunately it remained cold. After the 2nd or 3rd day, my son did ask the owner whether he would be providing his parents with any money back as we had paid for but not gotten a pool that could be used. As a lovely gesture, or so we thought, the owner had a bottle of wine and a cake sent over. I was pleased and satisfied with that. What soured the experience for us and what was truly unexpected and shocking, was after our departure the owner sent my son an email accusing him of intentionally breaking into the box, supposedly from the moment we arrived, and turning the heater off on a daily basis so we could ask for a “discount”. He felt that there could be no other explanation as to why the heater wouldn’t stay on. I have no words. I am still in shock.

Wunderschöner Blick. Tolles Haus. Ein perfekter Urlaub, in dem der Wohlfühleffekt sehr hoch war. Sowohl im Haus als auf der Terrasse kann man wunderbar entspannen, essen und verweilen. Die Ruhe tut richtig gut. Der Blick auf Meer, Himmel, Christo Rei, Ilhas Desertas und den Felsen im Westen verändert sich mit den Lichtverhältnissen und bietet eine sehr schöne Kulisse. Der Pool war sehr angenehm. Die Nähe zum Strand und zur Tauchstation haben wir genossen. Wir haben Ausflüge auf der ganzen Insel unternommen (alles kein Problem - durch die Autobahnnähe ist man überall recht schnell. Weiteste Entfernung 1 Stunde und 10 Minuten). Die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in Garajau sind sehr praktisch. Die Kommunikation mit João war sehr unkompliziert und entgegenkommend. Danke dafür! Absolut empfehlenswert!

We would love to come again!

Unbeschreiblich

What an amazing villa.warm swimming pool.modern,stylish classy property.the owner João gave us lifts into town with one phone call.he gave us the key to his private bar.put us in touch with Bruno a local taxi who new our exact location and charged us of the meter rate(cheaper than normal),João gave us wine on request.he recommended local restaraunts shops and attractions.you are in a very quiet location but around 10 mins walk to local shops pharmacy and restaurants.raviolli good for lunch.and Fargo’s for an excellent mix grill.10 mind walk to bus stop.you have a very tall flight of stairs to conquer or can walk a longer way round.fantastic views and only 15 min drive to Funchal.joao was an amazing host who was available at any time for any request.sleeep 6 but could accommodate more on request.the property has a separate Amex which sleeps 2 if booked ahead I believe.a wonderful apartment in a wonderful location.if you want your little bit of luxury and quiet relaxing tropical break look no thurther.good for groups of young singles of families.thank you for a wonderful memorable Holliday João we will be back

We had a lovely week in this house - much of the time spent looking at the panoramic view. João was very helpful when we needed him and communicated well. The property is in a good location for getting around and there is a good variety of shops within a short driving distance.

It was a lovely experience. I feel that more communication with the manager just before the trip would’ve been useful but it was fine during and afterwards. More of a reminder of things to do when you arrive. A fantastic Villa, not child friendly though because of the stairs but a great central location. Would highly recommend it for a good break!

This house lives up to all the reviews. It’s a fantastic vast palace. The four of us felt a bit lost with so much space. We all loved it however, having the cinema room kept the kids occupied in the evening. The views were stunning and having a heated pool meant that regardless of the weather we were in and out of it lots. It’s perfectly situated overlooking the sea, close enough to Garajau to be able to walk to the shops and only 15 minutes from either Funchal or the airport. The island has loads to offer for all. This beautiful house provided us with the perfect relaxing holiday we were after. We’d love to go back.

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. It's in a fantastic location with beautiful views. We received a lovely gift on arrival and were welcomed to the property and given a full rundown. The property has everything you need to have a great vacation. The one let down for us was the fact that the pool never reached a heat that made it comfortable for a swim. We specifically chose the property for the heated pool and that was a disappointment. We did however still enjoy our stay. I would definitely recommend this property, I can only imagine it would be fantastic in summer.

This is a place you would always wish to visit again. Everything for a perfect holiday is there: a modern spacious house, a magnificent view, quiet area and absolute privacy. We enjoyed breakfast with fresh exotic local fruit outside in the sun on the terrace and a dinner with local seafood in the evening with candle light. My partner absolutely loved this holiday home and I am sure I would not find a better stay in Madeira. The house Located with a walking distance to local attraction, a beautiful monument overlooking the sea. There is a good supermarket nearby, also a walking distance and the capital of Madeira about 10-15 minute drive. I would definitely recommend this place, it is a gem.

Excellent accomodation, very clean. Perfect location, however the villa next door was being renovated and we encountered noise from 9am till 10 pm every day except sundays, I should have been made aware of this before my visit, especially as a baby was in our party, otherwise great choice would recommend

Firstly, what a stunning and secure villa with beautiful views of the ocean, with easily accessible beach very close by. We felt safe and the area is lovely and quiet. Having said that, we feel that the hospitality in terms of help should be better considering this is a villa and not AirBnB after-all. Firstly, it would be good to have a starter bag of basics like tea bags, oil, sugar, eggs, bread, washing up liquid etc. as we were not familiar with the area, particularly if you arrive at night as the closest shops are about 20 mins walk away. Secondly, we lost two days of our short break due to the pool being very cold, despite being told it was a heated pool, this is even after a guy came to check the pool on the second day and told us that it would be warm however it remained cold for the remainder of the stay (which was very frustrating as the heated pool was one of the main reasons we booked this place). In addition, nobody came to clean the pool regularly (the pool cleaner turned up just the once on the second day only after we requested that the pool be checked) which was unacceptable as there was a large tree by the pool so many leaves and ants/other bugs were in the pool all week. Lastly, just a suggestion if you want to make a pool more child-friendly perhaps consider adding some softer material or something to the pool edges to avoid accidents such as injuring heads as the pool is relatively narrow compared to other pool sizes. It would be good for these points to be taken on board to improve the villa experience and increase the likelihood of people returning to stay.

This is very luxurious house. Simply stunning. Bit disappointed the owner does not do a welcome pack of essentials as standard. I queried this when we arrived by email and he said we should have asked. All places we have stayed at in past this is a standard thing. We arrived late and didn't know area so finding shops etc was difficult. Nonetheless the location and house design is amazing. The pool is beautiful and looks out onto the ocean and the statue of Christ. Great location. Not far to the botanical gardens and only 15 minutes drive into Funchal centre. We hired a car to get about. Highly recommend house of jazz restaurant and the magic dolphin trip. We will be back. Thank you joäo.

Fantastic property, beautiful place.

This is a beautiful villa with sea views within walking distance of shops and a few restaurants. Taxi into Funchal easy and we made links with our taxi driver Sonja who was always available to drive us or pick us up. Villa large and clean a few more sun loungers for our party would have been good. Also no basic ingredients to start us off and we arrived in the evening. Restaurant Central a few miles away good food and lively atmosphere (and they collected us and drove us back to villa). Levada walks lovely. Lovely clean luxury villa superb views and in a beautiful island. Thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

Sea House Madeira is the most luxurious holiday home that we have ever stayed in. It made our trip to Madeira really special. The views were stunning both day and night, the pool was a welcome relief after a hot day and the facilities were just like a 5 star hotel. The house was spotless and the kitchen was well stocked with all you could need - not that we ate in much as the local restaurants catered for our needs well. Set just outside Funchal it gave us the incentive to explore the Island with all its beauty and history. Taxi rides to Funchal and beyond were quick and easy and we soon struck up a relationship with a local driver who took us all over the island. On route he was always happy to update us on the local history and give us advice - even where to go on the last day to catch the best sunshine. The main reason for the trip was to swim with the dolphins and to snorkel which was incredible and coming back to the house at night gave us the opportunity to unwind in luxury. It really was a holiday of a lifetime we will never forget. I would defiantly recommend to anyone and am looking to return next year.

From the moment we arrived we were greeted most welcoming by Teresa. The Sea House is the most delightful of places I have had the pleasure of staying at. Its very modern, spacious, very clean, comfortable, relaxing, secure, revitalising, energising and above offering the most spiritual of views one could ask for.

A luxury and beautiful decorated house with all facilites you can think of - it exceeded our expectations.

The terrace with pool is great for spending relaxing hours in the sun and swim in the heated infinty-pool! The house was clean and well maintained, the owner is very helpful and friendly, also the lady, who welcomed us in the sea house.
