We enjoyed our stay. We had fresh bread everyday. The host was very friendly and offered advise on surrounding area. It was our first visit to Madeira. It's a beautiful island and I hope to go back to visit and relax soon.

The host of the property greeted me when I arrived and offered a tasting of Madeira wines. Then he showed me the suite and talked about the rules. After getting settled, I asked for a recommendation for a place to eat..He drove me to a restaurant...
