A perfect, peaceful seaside escape filled with the sound of waves and incredible hospitality.
We had an incredible stay at Palheiro Mar by Ola Madeira! The house is split over two floors and is perfectly spacious and comfortable for two people. One of the absolute highlights was the amazing terrace. You can literally sit out there and listen to the soothing sound of the waves all day long. The location is unbeatable.
Even though the village is wonderfully quiet and peaceful, it still has some fantastic spots to offer. We highly recommend grabbing pastries at Cafe Villa Amore and Kamoshi, and you absolutely must try the fresh seafood at Restaurante O Ideal!
A special shout-out to our host, Dino, who was absolutely amazing and incredibly helpful throughout our entire stay. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this beautiful place!

A beautiful 9 days spent in a unique cottage, close to sea, bars and restaurants.
Beautiful location
Quaint
Simplicity
Dark at times inside making it hard to find things (everything I have is black lol).
Could have done with a lounger to relax on in shared area.

Worst booking experience ever.
This was most depressing apartment I've ever booked. There were only two very small windows which were blocked by huge building standing nearby. There was a complete darkness 24h/day, even during full sunlight and all windows/doors opened. We had to have lights turned on all day and even then we had problems with operating inside the cottage. This 4 days was a really depressing experience. Don't be misled by photos attached by the owner, reality is much, much darker. I'm attaching a real photo of my backpack in full day, with windows and doors opened and lights turned on. This meant to be our sunny vacation which it was - but on the other hand we felt like living in a basement or a cave with no access to the sun and outer beauty.
Next, there was no view on the sea, mountains or garden - declaration of the owner was a complete lie. You can easily check that via maps - there is a huge building between the cottage and the sea and there are no windows on the mountain side. Photos attached.
Next, equipment in the cottage was very neglected. Electric kettle was broken, toaster burned bread on all settings, pots and pans were completely scratched (photo attached), roller blind was not working. Lighting was poor/unsufficient, I'm attaching how the kitchen was lightened. Water in the shower was hot for approximately 2 minutes, after that it was cold - in our case first person had very quick shower and second had to accept cold water. Bathroom was extremely small. There was no closet or drawer in whole cottage, so all our stuff was scattered everywhere. It felt like the owner invested minimum amount to start renting, without paying attention to any comfort of the guests.
I've contacted owner to inform that there was no view on the sea/mountains (which was declared in the offer) and that cottage was neglected, asked if he wish to compensate for that. In response, the owner was very unpleasant, arrogant and refused to take any responsibility.

Wonderful relaxing hideaway
Charming house on the coast, you can hear the waves crashing all night long. Very therapeutic. Interior is charming with a modern twist.
A few little additions would make this place perfect.
Außergewöhnliches Steinhaus in einer kurzen Seitenstraße, nur ein paar Schritte vom Meer entfernt und mit Blick auf den Berg. Perfekte Lage, um den Sonnenuntergang zu genießen. Das nächtliche Meeresrauschen werde ich vermissen. Den nicht einsehbaren Grillpatz habe ich gern genutzt. Ich wurde herzlich empfangen und verabschiedet. Danke Anne-Lise und Dino 💜
Die nächsten Gäste würden sich bestimmt über einen kleinen Mülleimer im Bad freuen 😊

Fijne locatie, goed bereikbaar.
Badkamer is aan de kleine kant, maar dat was bekend. Het warme water is wel snel op, dus daar moet je rekening mee houden bij douchen.

Eine sehr besondere Unterkunft in direkter Nachbarschaft zum Meer, das man sogar rauschen hört. Die Ausstattung ist rudimentär aber in Ordnung, außerdem ist es sauber.
Wie in anderen Bewertungen schon beschrieben ist es relativ dunkel und ziemlich hellhörig. Worauf wir hinweisen möchten ist, dass bauartbedingt sehr viel Getier: Kakerlaken, Würmer, Spinnen und Tausendfüssler unter anderem in der Dusche anzutreffen sind. Das sollte man unserer Meinung nach wissen bevor man die Unterkunft bucht.
