Casa Farol — Ocean Views & Unforgettable Sunsets, Madeira

This was our second time staying at Casa Farol. We spent three weeks here, the last two weeks in February and the first week in March.The house is very comfortable and spacious.We shared the house with our daughter and teenage granddaughter for one of the weeks.The house is situated in a small village on the southwest part of the island. The house has great views of the Farol lighthouse at Ponta do Pargo and cliff oceon views.The location suited us because it was quiet but accessible to many locations on the island.There is some building construction going on in the village but did not cause any concerns for us.The house is approximately one hours drive from Funchal. Within a short drive is a grocery store, several restaurants and a pharmacy.Orlando was very responsive and an excellent host.

House was very comfortable and clean

My wife and I very much enjoyed our brief stay at Casa Farol and hope we can return soon - maybe with our two adult children and their partners as there is plenty of space. The view remained magnificent despite a small temporary crane for building a house otherwise hidden below on the slope. Casa Farol - the house itself was first rate - the appointments (kitchen items, bedding, etc.) were more than adequate but below luxury. We were glad we chose this property as our base (rather than Funchal) to explore small seaside villages, go hiking in the mountains, etc. We had very good communication with the host who we could tell cares much about the property and our stay as guests.

Nicely equipped house with great views! Stayed here for five nights in October. It is a quieter side of the island but can still reach Funchal in a reasonable time and not far from a number of great places in western Madeira. Markets and restaurants within ten minutes. The house sits on a cliff overlooking the sea with great views (and occasional fierce wind). There was a crane/ construction in the house in front down below during some daytime hours that had minimal sound but should soon be over. The house has everything you need for a very nice holiday and the owner communicated well. Gorgeous sunsets!
