Located halfway between Machico and Santa Cruz, this family-run hotel is just a short drive from Madeira Airport and impresses with stunning sea views.

Great value for money, but only if you'll use the room only as a place to sleep. The cleaning lady comes every day and keeps everything tidy, however everything should undergo a renovation, from tiles to blankets and matrasses. Good thing is that Madeira is such a wonderful place that it would be a pitty to spend more time in a room, so who cares about an old bed?

The house had everything and the contact with Pedro and his mother Ana Luisa was warm and excellent.
The location was also, for us, very good in the old fishermens part of Machico.
Also close to the beach and the centre of town.

Location is kind of unique!! Looks to islands which is lovely. And is basically at end of airport runway! But ok. Great local restaurant and big supermarket nearby
One of the oldest towns on Madeira.. Nicely situated close to Airport. Walkable, many charming restaurants, marina with walkable bus station.. A very charming authentic Portuguese town. Love Machico..

Machico is so much nicer to stay in than Funchal if you like the quieter more laid back vibe. The shops and restaurants are all good but particular praise must go to all the ladies in Pastelria O Gala who worked tirelessly to keep their customers happy at all times - the Pastel de Natas were simply gorgeous and at EUR1.00 each were superb value. Try O Secreta for a really nice evening meal and don't forget to try the bread in Paderia e Pastelaria Flor de Machico

The apartment was spacious and very comfortable. The location was great ... within walking distance to the beach and also to the village centre. It is also close to the airport.
The name of the apartment was not very clear. In the small print it has Edifico VIP Baie, but I was looking VIP Paradise Apartments.

A lovely town of just the right size, lively but still calm - it has a lot of good restaurants, various stores etc that make your stay comfier than one in a smaller town, without the crowds of a bigger city which can get overwhelming. Funchal is a short drive away, and it is also a great base for all the trips and hikes especially around the eastern part of the island.
And there is a sandy beach well protected from the waves, so almost everyday is a good day for a swim!

Great place for my vacation. Quiet town providing all you need - supermarkets, one sand and one rocky beach, starting point for hikes and runners trails. Public buses to east part of the island ad Funchal. Bus to the airport - 5min ride for 1,3 eur. Great!

If you are without a car and want to visit most of the tourist places on Madeira Island you should rather look for a apartment in the Funchal city. That's a town where most of the buses go and you are going to have more time for your trips. The Machico city is also great and beautiful but rather quiet and somewhat local.
Our stay at Ruben's Modern & Recycled House was a real pleasure! We saw the pictures upfront but the reality is even better. Comfy beds, reliable internet connection ( no problem for a week of remote working ). Ruben is a very pleasant and communicative person that gave us tips and insights of places to visit and things to do during our 2 weeks stay. Thank you Ruben and really hope to meet again, regardless if in Madeira or in Romania :)
Everything was amazing! We rented a car, it was just less than 15 min drive from air port (many steep loads as everywhere in madeira!). Very lovely garden with many fruits and view is fantastic. The house was very spacious and clean. We stayed for 3 nights but if we had more time, we would spend more time in this house just chilling at the terrace. Feels nice to stay in one of "casa de campo" in Madeira. We will come back here for sure:)
Great value for money, but only if you'll use the room only as a place to sleep. The cleaning lady comes every day and keeps everything tidy, however everything should undergo a renovation, from tiles to blankets and matrasses.

Great location in Machico! Very clean with all that you need, including secure parking. Ana contacted us to let us know that we could check in early, which was really helpful. She also provided a welcome gift of wine and local cakes, as well at bathrobes and beach towels -some very nice touches. Two non-touristy cafes next door with good coffee and ponchas.
- Good location a short walk from Machico centre (bakery, supermarket, restaurants) overlooking the bay
- Large house with plenty of space for a family or group of friends, 2,5 bathrooms
- Terrace on the top floor makes for great vistas for breakfast and dinner
- Services like car rental offered by the owners very convenient at competitive rates
Elegant hotel with sophisticated staff. No idea why brits rate it 3 star. Here in Portugal and Brazil is 4 stars. Love the design of the rooms. Food is gorgeous. Facilities... Small library, pool, gym, entertainment. Machico itself is a delightful small town. Great base for romance, watersports, family fun, solitude and peace
Exceptional value for money, and very large place especially for 1 person. Could house a family easily. Easy enough to reach from Madeira airport by car and to Sao Lourenco reserve the next morning. Proprietors provided all the information needed to find the property and get in.
Very good location (close to the airport), free parking for the car, the house has everything what you need to stay in Madeira.
Mr. Tiago Teixeira sent us itinerary on places to see and restaurants to visit and gave us the welcome treat.
Hotel is in a really nice location, close to everywhere in Machico by foot. Owner and all staff are really nice :) Fresh coffee in the morning, hot chocolate for our daughter and nice breakfast (totally basic but it was ok).
Very nice and friendly host. Spacious and clean rooms in a great location with everything necessary. Easy access to shops, restaurant, the airport, and the hiking routes. A huge plus for my vacation in Madeira.
Good bed and breakfast hotel in the middle of Machico. Close seaside and fish restaurant. Good selection to have bed and breakfast together with PR8 sunrise trip in the morning :)
Comfortable hotel
Very friendly and responsive hosts and staff
Very good location in very pleasant and picturesque town
Conveniently close to the airport
Clean and nicely appointed room. The location was perfect. Restaurants, the beach, grocery stores, and the bus line are all right there. Machico is awesome.
