The host (Paula) was so nice & very quick to answer with any questions we had. She even sent a video of how to find the property since we were arriving late. The property is amazingly located and had everything that we needed during our stay. It is right on the street and there’s plenty of restaurants within walking across and a supermarket and a rooftop bar that is only a few minutes away. The apartment has a window in the bedroom that faces the ocean and you can sleep with the sound of the waves. If driving, there is plenty of street parking and also a nearby car park for when it gets busy. Check in and check out was very smooth and Paula was communicative during our entire stay. We would definitely stay here again!

Location was nice. Host was easy to communicate with on whatsapp.
The bathroom was dirty and the shower was clogged. There was barely any hand soap left. There was also a bad smell in the room once we entered. Also, not enough kitchen equipment. With all these problems we were forced to re-book to a different accommodation one night after.

Location was great, close to restaurants. The apartment was functional. The view on the sea just across the street was fantastic and it was to sleep with the sound of the waves. Communication with the owner was great and smooth.
The apartment lacked sunlight, since there was only one window in the bedroom. The lack windows lead to a strong humidity smell. And a shower head holder would be convenient along with a soap holder.

location on the ocean.
poorly stocked kitchen! Few linens to clean with and we had a kitchen leak under the sink. owner came over quickly and brought extra towels but poorly stocked . No coffeemaker, colander, few cutlery, etc. Kept banging our heads as the ceiling slopes down to counters.
Owner did bring over a drying rack as there was no where to hang wet clothing so that was good.
grocery store only a few steps away.

the biggest advantage is the location of the apartment
unfortunately, the cleanliness of the apartment was not satisfactory. Especially the floor and bathroom

It had a good location to drive to places on the Northwest side of island. Restaurants and grocery store a few feet away. A good quick stop over for young people rather than adults.
It can be very noisy here with the restaurants below. The owners need to spray for bugs because of the garbage left out for morning clean up. You can’t swim here with the rocks and strong waves. The Caves are not open for another year because of repair after the earthquake.

Perfect location of the facility - on the main road between the cliff and the ocean . The studio is located in the attic of a former building that was once used as a warehouse for goods. Currently there is a great bar on the ground floor that is worth taking advantage of. The apartment had an electric heater which was very important during our stay. The stay was comfortable and the view of the ocean from the window was amazing. Very good price to quality ratio as for Madeira.
The entire attic has only one window in the bedroom. If someone is going to spend whole days there, it can be a bit problematic. As there are bars below it can be noisy at night. Acoustically sensitive people may have some problems with sleeping as the roar of the waves reflected off the cliff is clearly heard in the room.

The location was outstanding with the ocean right outside the window and next door were plenty of bakeries for breakfast, restaurants for lunch and dinner, bars for relaxing and a supermarket too for everything else. It was also easy to get everywhere in north and western Madeira from Sao Vicente. The apartment was spacious, pleasant, and had all the essentials.
It would have been great to have some towel hooks or even a drying rack to hang up towels and swimsuits. Also a coffee maker would be appreciated, even though excellent coffee was available next door at the bakery for 0.75 euro. The lock situation of two locked doors to get to our apartment, while secure, was somewhat difficult at times as neither door had a regular latch and the entry was a sauna on hot afternoons. The wardrobes in the bedroom were falling apart and looked kind of messy, so it would have been better if they weren't there at all in terms of aesthetics. Also the futon/couch could use a few more pillows to make it more comfortable. There are actually three flats at this property, which wasn't clear by the description, nor photos. There is zero insulation in the attic flat where we stayed, so if you need it quiet to sleep, this might not be the right place - some street noise can be heard, and the ocean was always crashing. Last thing, the "wine cellar" below the apartment is really a tourist destination only, so don't expect to hang out there.

Amazing location, poetic view from the window

Very nice location, good communication with owners, spacious apartement.
It’s next to a beach which is really nice but it is a stoney beach so it can get really noisy when the waves are bigger (or when there is a party at the bar bellow). No big deal but good to také into consideraation (if you have the attic apartement as we did).

The best thing about this place is the view of the ocean which is on the other side of the road. Another great attitude is the bar beneath the apartment. They serve the best poncha in whole Madeira. I really recommend.

The owner/manager? was very responsive to our requests although we never met her. Sao Vicente by the sea is full of restaurants and a very well equipped supermarket.
Our apartment was very disappointing in that it only had one window in the bedroom so the main area was very dim. It should be described as an A-frame loft. There was no heating at all and it was cold. There was no outside sitting area and we do not think it fitted the description on Booking.com, i.e. two views and outside sitting area. The noise of the sea reverberated throughout the loft and it was similar to a train coming into a metro station every 4 seconds as the Atlantic rolled in across the road. We think this loft needed a skylight window and some sound proofing against the sea noise. We love the sea but not that loud! The hand basin had no plug. Paula didn't understand our request and kindly left us a plug extension! There was no frying pan either but on request she left us 2 new ones. Thank you Paula.
