Vacations in the countryside - Casinha dos Canhas

Country house with two floors, ideal for those seeking a vacation destination in a rural atmosphere. On the entrance floor of this typically Madeiran house, you will find an open-plan living and dining room, access to the kitchen, and a suite with a double bed, private bathroom with shower, and a single sofa bed. Access to the upper floor is via a spiral staircase. On this level, there is an office area, a bathroom with shower, and a bedroom with two single beds, which gives access to a nice balcony.

The architecture and stone walls are typical of the area, making the rural experience even more authentic. The quiet atmosphere allows you to enjoy the chirping of birds in a private grass garden. The outdoor dining area connects to a cultivated area with fruit trees accessible to guests, including vines, lemon, anone, and tangerine trees, as well as yams, spinach, and other plants and flowers.

A perfect place for those wishing to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Ideal for relaxing with family and very close to Levada dos Canhas, for those who enjoy hiking and being in touch with nature.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Notre expérience de location n'a malheureusement pas été à la hauteur de nos attentes, basées sur la description annoncée.* **Accès et localisation :** L'accès au logement est très difficile. La route est extrêmement pentue, déconseillée aux véhicules peu puissants. La manœuvre pour entrer dans la propriété est complexe en raison de la pente, d'un dos-d'âne et de l'étroitesse de la voie. Contrairement à l'annonce, la plage de Ponta do Sol n'est pas accessible en 6 minutes mais en 20 min. * **État du logement et équipements :** L'équipement de la cuisine est assez limité pour le nombre de personnes que la maison peut accueillir. Nous avons constaté que certains éléments étaient endommagés (la hotte aspirante et un tiroir de la cuisine) et ils n'ont pas été réparés pendant notre séjour. Le mobilier de jardin (transats) mentionné ou attendu pour une location de cette gamme était absent. Le barbecue était difficile d'accès et nous n'avons pas pu l'utiliser. Une odeur persistante d'humidité se dégageait des canapés.* **Gestion et communication :** Le gestionnaire, "An Island Apart", a été informé de ces désagréments mais aucune solution ou compensation n'a été proposée durant notre séjour pour améliorer la situation.* **Environnement :** L'environnement immédiat est très calme, mais assez isolé avec peu d'activités à proximité sans voiture. Nous avons été incommodés à plusieurs reprises par des fumées odorantes provenant de feux aux alentours.

Gerne wieder

Wer gerne Urlaub bei der einheimischen Bevölkerung macht und seine Ruhe sucht ist dort richtig. Man ist aber auch schnell auf der ER 101 und kommt überall hin auf der Insel. Uns hat es richtig gut gefallen und wir können es nur empfehlen.
