Quinta Terezinha, hotel in Ribeira Brava

Set in Ribeira Brava, Quinta Terezinha offers accommodation with free WiFi, mountain views, and access to a hot tub. Guests can benefit from a balcony and an outdoor fireplace.

Quinta Terezinha is the perfect place to stay if you are looking for a base to discover the island. The host Laura was so friendly and was really useful in providing information for the shops, restaurants and places to visit. The accommodation itself was perfect and exceeded our expectations. The farmhouse was lovely with comfy beds, a great shower and really clean. We didn't really make the most of the outdoor areas, but there are hammocks, a barbeque and sun loungers all with amazing views. As others have mentioned, you will likely become the owner of a couple of cats for your stay which we loved. On arrival, Laura had prepared a welcome hamper with some local exotic fruits, ground coffee and a bottle of Madeira Wine which was a lovely touch. If you run out or want any more fresh produce from the farm then the instructions are to just help yourself. What an amazing stay - just wish we could have stayed longer.

Quinta da Moscadinha, hotel in Camacha

Located in Camacha, in a historic building, 10 km from Marina do Funchal, Quinta da Moscadinha is a farm stay with an outdoor swimming pool and garden.

A beautiful house, sumptuous décor, and friendly staff. Excellent breakfasts, and the restaurant above the hotel was excellent. They also have two restaurants in Funchal, one of which we visited for NYE and it was very good too. (and gave us the guests' discount despite us already having left the hotel). We particularly enjoyed the comfortable lounge with a raging log fire in the evenings.

Moinho do Comandante, hotel in Faial

Moinho do Comandante features lake views, free WiFi and free private parking, set in Faial, 11 km from Santana's traditional houses.

The Moinho is located in a beautiful valley with lots of nature around. It is a very relaxing environment, you don't hear anything except for the birds and the river. Carlos is the best host you can imagine. He has lots of stories to tell, gives very useful hints, is always available for questions. And he makes a wonderful breakfast. The scrambled and fried eggs are made upon request. Every day he comes with another small surprise of local specialities. The appartement is very cosy, on cooler days the wood stove makes it nice warm. We totally felt at home. We enjoyed staying here a lot, thanks for everything!

Colina Da Faja, hotel in Fajã da Ovelha

A good location for a stress-free holiday in Fajã da Ovelha, Colina Da Faja is a farm stay surrounded by views of the sea.

We loved the house. It was beautiful. Location was ideal to hike but you will need a car. The area was quiet and beautiful!!! We loved the small villages in the mountains and hill tops. Breakfast was lovely! Great staff who took care of us. The room was stunning. We also used the pool almost every day. It was amazing. Cold but the views were fabulous. With a car we would return in a heart beat!

    An amazing very special place in nature with sounds of ocean, beautiful and very tasty bio fruit and vegetable farm (possibly to buy), also very tasty breakfast in a restaurant next on the coastline. Very quiet area with easy aces to town by free cable car and car. It was very exciting.

    Magnificent renovation of an old farmhouse in a breathtaking setting. Beautifully maintained garden and good breakfast! The pool was a perfect spot to relax your muscles after long hiking days, while enjoying the view of the ocean from within the mountains.

    It is a very special location, accessible only with a cable car down the cliff, the accommodation lying within an organic farm on a small strip of land between the ocean and the high cliff. Quite extraordinary! Banana and papaya trees, butterflies, a very special pleasant atmosphere

    Gorgeous, peaceful place. All the staff members and one of the owners I met were extremely friendly, helpful and nice. The cottage villa was very cozy, clean with beautiful view. Breakfast was delicious. Jams and juices were made from farm fruits ( the best mango jam I’ve ever eaten). Absolutely stunning place where you can stay apart from busy, noisy life , calm your mind and recharge your soul 🙌 I will definitely come back here ❤️

    Lovely welcome from the gentleman who runs the cable car (Nellio?) and Bruno on reception. The whole place is absolutely idyllic and so peaceful. All the staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was great in the restaurant. We really enjoyed the very informative tour around the farm with Fatima
