The most welcoming and kind hearted host! We arrived late and she was so accomodating, great communications and made us feel at home instantly.
The room was spotless and furnished with everything you would want - lovely welcome gifts also!
Wish we could have stayed longer! Great location for PR1 sunrise hike the next morning.
Keep an eye out for the goats!

Ein klein und sehr saubere Haus
Ein wunderbares kleines Hotel, strategisch günstig gelegen zwischen Funchal und Santana, somit ideale Ausgangspunkt für Wanderer. Direkte Busverbindung und die Bushaltestelle direkt vor die Tür. Die Zimmer sind geräumig, blitzsauber, es gibt auch gut ausgestattete Küche die Gäste mitbenutzen dürften, die übrigens so blank geputzt ist, dass die jeder Hausfrau neidisch wird😉 das Hotel liegt direkt auf der Straße, dennoch wunderbar ruhig denn zwischen 7 Uhr abends um 7 Uhr morgens fahren noch nicht mal fünf Autos vorbei, ich habe mein Aufenthalt sehr genossen und werde das Haus wärmstes weiterempfehlen

Très belle montagne
Excellent accueil (et en plus on nous a donné notre chambre aussitôt, alors que nous sommes arrivés à midi). Belle chambre avec grande salle de bain et douche pluie.
Deux grandes cuisines sont à disposition avec tout le matériel nécessaire : c'est du grand luxe. Seul bémol : musique un peu forte du restaurant d'en face. Dommage dans un endroit magique.
