Although in the meantime the hotel is so well known & always fully booked, the staff is still amazing friendly & takes time for a small chat.
What I like most is the trust they bring towards the guests, no strict rules like pool opening hours & it‘s always quiet, people do not abuse it. Also the honesty bar where it is possible to take out in trust is great!
The hotel is of high quality but not new any more & for me it‘s sympathetic that it doesn’t shine & glance in luxury, it‘s still familiar, beautiful garden & peace.
I love this place!

The staff were fab, the room and the areas in and around were peaceful, beautiful and super clean and very well maintained, the views overlooking the sea are GORGEOUS and such a treat to fully relax. The restaurant / bar ‘cabin’ is fantastic, perfectly formed with nice food and very well priced wine by the glass. Also great massage !!! Be sure to book the spa guy.

We stay 4 days at Casa da Vargem,
It is an amazing villa, with a wonderful view to the ocean .
The casa designed in modern clean architecture ,which together with the panoramic view of the nature around, gives kind of “Zen atmosphere” .
The place is really amazing, much better then the photos!
Miguel the owner use to work for many years at hotels, and the Villas are his dream come true. You can feel and see his professional touch in every detail at the villa which has 2 bedrooms, leaving room, wonderful shower, amazing swimming pool, hot tab at the garden, very well equipped kitchen and privet garden with plants and herbs that the guest can use for cooking or tee.
There are also many other useful facilities that you can use such as washing and drying machine, every thing is new and works perfect.
The bottom line is -5 stars experience.
Next time we will be in madeira we will be back to Casa da Vargem.🌺

Location turned out to be good, quite a small village with some lovely friendly residents. Great pizza place opposite. Few nice bars and shops. Bit isolated, but great taxi sevice and some buses. The property itself was lovely. The annex (little house we called it) was ideal for the young couple in our party. Having mobility issues myself, the downstairs bedroom and adapted bathroom were ideal. The ramp access provided helped too. Garden and outdoor space were great. The views were fabulous. Lovely well equipped kitchen, with all mod cons. The place grew on me as the week wore on, pity we weren't there longer to try out the bbq facilities and enjoy the garden some more.

We really liked it, we felt at home! Luxury house, design, cleanliness, views, swimming pool! Everything is thought out, everything is convenient, there is everything you need and a little more) And if something is needed, the owners resolve the issue in a second. Liliana, thank you so much for your hospitality! We were with the baby and we were provided with so much for him - a bed, a chair, a potty, a chaise longue with music, a baby blanket! It was so great. The owners are always in touch - they helped us immediately to any request or question - where to eat delicious food, where to go, where to buy local fruits. We were by car and this house is ideally located from many attractions. We remember with great warmth the days spent in this place and boldly recommend it! The views will make your head spin!

We stayed 1 week and were pleased. Levada Nova is out the back gate and down the stairs. Owners live next door. They cooked us beef skewers (on a stick) one night, which was a great treat. They also provided us with loads of fruit during out stay. Local cake and wine waiting for us upon arrival too. The place was as advertised and the treatment was a bonus. Smooth check in with the property manager Veronica (She was very nice too).

A quiet little town, with nice streets and observation decks. There are several restaurants and only one shopping center in the center. It's a very nice sunset and it's always nice and warm here.

Very nice small town with a nice beach and good restaurants. There are 2 levadas to walk. There is a small shop in town where you can find everything you need. Good connection to the main road that runs along the coast to the capital. A cafe on the cliff and a cape where you can walk and see the cliffs on both sides.

Ponta do Sol in itself is nothing really special.
Ponta do Sol in itself is nothing really special. But given the fact that you have rental car you can just discover the whole island.
It is highly recommended to visit Calheta, there is a very nice harbour and little boulevard. Must go there is restaurant Manifattura Di Gelato.
Another very good restaurant is La Vaca Negra in Funchal; best steaks ever!

Such a pretty little place - lots of winding streets - many pedestrian only, and good restaurants too. We mostly ate at the hotel, but also at a restaurant called Caprice which was fantastic and great value for money.
We were delighted to find lots of interesting sculpture around the place which was fascinating, and the people were all very chilled and welcoming.
The pavements are mostly cobbled, and of course there are lots of hills so challenging if your mobility is reduced as my parent's was - didn't stop us though - we just took our time and there were regular places to sit and rest along the way.

Its a very good place to base yourself as its very easy to get around the island from there, there are may different walks within a short drive.. It is a very small but quaint place. You get the most amazing sunsets in Ponta do Sol .
Location, Ponta do Sole is really nice, small, formal very fancy town, which is a great place to visit and this small house is directly above it. What we like is, that it was just ca 550m far away from center, beach, shop and restaurants, however !!beware!! also +100 meters high, with stairs you don't need to go by the road and us takes it about 8 minutes. The hose have just 2 studios, our was small, clean and well equip with fantastic terrace (sometimes windy),m where you can drink wine and look for the sunset. .
The sea view was absolutely incredible, as was the infinity pool, the location is perfect for watching the sun set. The comprehensive breakfast each morning was great. Proximity to the Cascata dos Anjos waterfall and Ponta do Sol is great. The hotel manager was very accommodating and keen to help, and the rooms are cleaned super quickly it's usually already made by the time we finish breakfast. Hotel is quiet so it feels very peaceful and spacious. Hot tub by pool is lovely for sun set.
Exceptional stay in a wonderful house with excellent facilities. Particularly liked the BBQ and obviously the view. A car is highly recommended, because although the #4 bus goes past the house, we could not work out the route. Alternatively a taxi is €8 from Ponta do Sol. The Levada Nova is only a couple of minutes away by car, and the walk along the valley with views across to the better known levada walks is spectacular.
Calm area, no turists, but car is a must.
Good local restaurant nearby as well as a grocery.. 5mins by walk..
Great view from appartment.
Dedicated parking space.
It is the best place to stay, if you want to explore the island.. it is max 1 hour to every corner of island and Ponta do Sol is the most sunny place on Madeira, so even on other parts of island was bad weather, here was mostly sunny.
The hosts were wonderful! They provided baskets of fresh fruit and delicious breakfast foods. The property itself is absolutely beautiful with stunning views and loads of space. We really enjoyed the pool after a day of hiking. We walked to town for cafes and restaurants and while it was a hike uphill on the return taxis were easy to find.
Location on the West central coast area of the island was good…
Cafes and restaurants in 10 minute or less walking.
Property has everything needed to cook if your into that.Grocery store a few blocks away.
Note: Madeira is a vertical environment. Very steep roads. This condo is lower on the hillside than 90% of properties in the area.
Spacious and nicely set up property, in a local village. Nice terraces
Nice views from the house, levada hikes leaving right from the house door.
Little supermarket, bar and cafe reachable by foot.
Clear information from the owner on everything and she organized a baby cot last minute for us.
Ponta do Sol 7mn away by car
We stayed in 5 different top hotels in Madeira and Estalagem Ponta do Sol was our favorite! Wonderful hotel with a superb view from your room, restaurant, infinity pool. The best sunset views from the restaurant. Also, the staff was very friendly, welcomed us with champagne (we stayed during our honeymoon).
Our time at Escarpa was absolutely incredible! The staff was wonderful, the property was beautiful, the breakfast was amazing and the restaurant, 90 Degrees, was also incredible - the staff, the food and the service! Our stay was so quiet and peaceful. We would absolutely stay here again!
Really clean and well equipped apartment, has everything a person need to stay mid to long term. The restaurant right opposite is such a gem too. Walking distance to supermarkets and view points nearby. Ideal for those who travel as a couple or want to stay long term and cook etc
Great location, a short (if steep) walk from the beach and restaurants at Ponta do Sol. The villa is well equipped and has incredible views over the town and out to sea, with a wraparound terrace to make the most of the sun and scenery.
Beautiful comfortable home, extremely clean and well equipped. Fantastic views and Catia welcomed us to the home and was available if needed. There are a few really great restaurants in the area.
This hotel is the perfect definition of a boutique hotel. The staff really makes you feel special and they are genuinely nice.
The views are simply overwhelming.
Breakfast is fantastic.
Location was perfect, right by the waterfront in beautiful Ponta do Sol, rooms were spacious and comfortable, all with ocean view, breakfast buffet was very good with lots of choices.
The nature of hotel is insane. I liked our stay and the staff was very friendly . We booked for a wrong day and they still accommodate us without penaltyis. Thank you for everything.
A magnificent hotel with its own soul. With a beautiful view and a really warm pool. Good breakfast and great location. I want to go back there again.❤️
