Great view, either to the ocean or to the mountain. Surrounded by curral vineyards. We had a very warm welcoming. The hostes is extremely nice and you'll feel at ease, like you know her for a long time. She gave us a map with the main attractions and restaurants. All the restaurants she listed were spor on. The room is very spacious, and has great amenities. With a full kitchen. It's in a good location 5 minutes form Madalena. Don't think you can't get much better than this.

Pleasant and helpful staff! The apartment suite we stayed in (#4) was wonderful. Clean, spacious, quiet, stylish and well equipped, and with a large sunny patio overlooking the sea! The location is an easy 10 minute drive to Madalena, and far enough out for peaceful ocean breezes. Continental breakfast was sufficient. Unfortunately, must drive somewhere for dinner although we walked up to the local cafe/pub for some cheap beers! Overall a 5 out of 5! Looking forward to seeing the progress of the construction of the single units and restaurant!

Even in the winter time with unpredictable weather, this hotel is a pleasant stay with helpful customer service via email especially before the visit, helping to plan activities, making suggestions what to see or eat while on the island. Even while staying here over the Christmas holiday, the owner was gracious in helping find places to eat and going above and beyond in bringing food! Renting a car is a must, as the hotel is a bit a ways from the major town. The space is spacious, generous, and clean.

Fantasic location with a well equipped appartment

We stayed for 3 days in an appartment overlooking the Ocean. The attention to detail in the appartment was amazing everything was catered for to the point of blankets being left if it got cold on the balcony. The hostess Claudia was lovely and brought us breakfast daily with a smile and a chat about the best places on the Island. This was our first visit to the Island and I was so sad to leave this appartment I could have stayed there for ever on the balcony watching the ocean. I can not fault this place it even had a small playground for children, although we did not have any.
