Madeira 2025
Wir waren jetzt zum 4. Mal im Leahouse und können es nur weiterempfehlen. Das Wetter war in diesem Jahr sehr kühl und unbest ändig mit viel Regen. Die Heizung, die seit 2024 eingebaut worden ist, hat uns die Situation aber deutlich leichter ertragen lassen.

Great house, fantastic location
We really enjoyed our stay, the house is great. So much space and a well-equipped kitchen. It is very conveniently located, many restaurants etc. nearby and very short drive to the beach in Caleta. Very nice surroundings and very quiet at night. We loved the fireplace! Will definitely come again.

Familienurlaub für Wandern und Entspannen
Der Aufenthalt in dem Haus war sehr schön. Mit vier Personen ist das Haus sehr großzügig, hell und gut ausgestattet. Man hat genug Platz für alle und kann im großen Ess-/Wohnzimmer gemütliche Abende verbringen. Durch die Klimaanlage kann auch im Winter geheizt werden.Die Lage ist schön ruhig. Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind fußläufig erreichbar.Die Organisation zur Vermietung ist sehr einfach und freundlich.

Sehr schöner Ort, tolle Lage des Hauses
Der Ort liegt abseits von allem Trubel und genau das ist es was wir gesucht haben. Als Startpunkt für verschiedenen Wandertouren optimal, ein Auto war nur erforderlich um zum Startpunkt zu kommen. Der Supermarkt im Ort war für uns ausreichend, dass Restaurant an der Tankstelle mit seinen typischen portugiesischen Gerichten, den tollen Weinen und dem traumhaften Sonnenuntergang können wir allen nur ans Herz legen. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder !! Wer allerdings Party, Unterhaltung und Ausgehmöglichkeiten, Shoppingerlebnisse sucht ist hier falsch. Die Natur, die Ruhe liegt im Vordergrund und das muss man mögen. Eine rundum wunderschöne Woche und das Haus war sauber, toll ausgestattet, gute Beschreibungen und Tipps vom Vermieter, wir kommen sehr gerne wieder, vielleicht dann in das Nachbargebäude mit Pool ?

South Madeira Idyll
Lovely small town of Prazeres with multiple excellent restaurants and a lovely well appointed house. Very clean & spacious for the 4 of us with outside space for relaxing in the evening. Air Con was a blessing ! One improvement would be a more modern smart TV to access Netflix etc especially for the youngsters, other than this its perfect.

Geweldig
Heel ruim huis,van alle gemakken voorzien! Beschrijving van internet klopt.Buiten verschillende plekken om van de zon te genieten met terrasmeubilair en zelfs twee ligbedden met kussens. Klein gemoedelijk dorpje met enkele restaurantjes en een supermarkt. Auto wel nodig als je iets van Madeira wilt zien. Parkeren op de oprit van het huis, met hek ervoor desgewenst zelfs in garage! Mooie plek om vakantie te houden.

Prachtig huis in rustige omgeving
Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien en is zeer mooi gebouwd. Parkeren kan op eigen terrein of in de eigen garage zonder dat je steile beklimmingen hebt. Vanuit het huis is ‘s avonds de zonsondergang heel mooi te zien boven de Atlantische oceaan. Rondom het huis zijn zitjes gecreëerd zodat je altijd wel een geschikt plekje vindt. Vanaf deze zitjes is het uitzicht vrij beperkt omdat het gehele terrein omheind is met een muur/glas afwisselend hoog en laag. Jammer is het dat deze mooie woning niet echt over een tuin beschikt. De drie slaapkamers en drie badkamers maken dat het zeker ook een huis is voor meerdere personen. Op loopafstand vind je een supermarkt, restaurants en cafés en levada’s. Wij hebben genoten van onze vakantie in dit mooie huis op een mooie plek.

Traumhaftes Feriendomizil
Wir waren vom Check-in über den gesamten Aufenthalt bis zur Abreise rundum zufrieden. Das Haus hat ein sehr schönes geräumiges Ambiente, von der Garage gelangt man mit den Einkäufen direkt in die Küche und Abstellkammer. Küche und Waschraum sind mit hochwertigen Geräten ausgestattet, alles ist top sauber. Das Haus ist ruhig gelegen und man hat die Möglichkeit direkt zu Wanderungen zu starten und trotzdem hat es auch eine gute Verkehrsanbindung. Nachts war es wunderbar ruhig und der Kamin hat uns manch gemütlichen Abend beschert. Schön wären ab und zu 1, 2 deutsche Fernsehsender für das Abendprogramm aber wir haben die gut ausgestattete kleine mehrsprachige Hausbibliothek in Kombination mit einem guten Madeirawein als Tagesausklang genossen. Wir können dieses Kleinod nur weiterempfehlen und werden es auch gern für unseren nächsten und 5. Madeira Urlaub buchen. Elke und Marcel

Très bon séjour dans cette maison conforme à l'annonce. État propre, place de stationnement intérieur, tout le confort nécessaire. Draps et torchons fournis. L'environnement est calme sauf quelques chiens et chats la nuit. Une petite épicerie avec juste des produits de base, est à 3mn en voiture. Un peu loin pour les "picos". Bonne communication avec les propriétaires mais seulement par internet.

Great, modern base for hiking
We chose this beautiful modern house for a few days of relaxation and exploration after an intense work trip and it was good. The house is modern and clean and comfortable. The furniture new and nice and all appliances the same. There are huge doors you can slide open to bring the outside in and comfortable outdoor furniture. The town is about as rural as you can find on this surprisingly populated island and we enjoyed exploring the coffee shops and local hikes. Easy to get here from anywhere on the island with a car. There are a few things could be improved to make it feel more like a home and less like leftovers from someone else’s house. There were only 2 bowls and no cutting board. Otherwise, the kitchen was well equipped. It would be great to have some basics like olive oil, basic spices and laundry detergent but maybe past visitors have abused things like this. The beds are rock hard - 1 the hardest I’ve ever felt, the smallest reasonable so we slept in there after the first uncomfortable night. There not being any heating except for additional pay was surprising, especially since it was cranking when we arrived. Then we never turned it n again after reading the instruction book. The arrival instruction were sent as PDFs that opened as lots of code and nothing readable. We waited a while after arriving to receive a code for the lock box after trying to call text and email through the app. Everything was fine after that but I feel like we missed some info.

Die bisherigen Kommentare zur ruhigen Lage und Ausstattung können wir nur bestätigen. Im Februar hatten wir ein paar kalte Tage erwischt, aber die Räume ließen sich mit den Split-Klimageräten hinreichend erwärmen. Beim nächsten Madeira-Besuch kommen wir gerne wieder!

Very nice house
We had a great stay in this lovely house. We especially enjoyed the outdoor table (even in winter it is a sunny place) and the fireplace in the livingroom. The daily drive to get to Funchal and other sights/walkingtrails is a really beautiful one along the coast. The host was really nice and communicative. Thank you Catia !
