Very nice house
We had a great stay in this lovely house. We especially enjoyed the outdoor table (even in winter it is a sunny place) and the fireplace in the livingroom. The daily drive to get to Funchal and other sights/walkingtrails is a really beautiful one along the coast. The host was really nice and communicative. Thank you Catia !

Our come back to Madeira Island
This was our third time at LEAHOUSE. It is very spacious for two people. There is everything you need if you want to cater for yourself. Communication with Catia is very smooth. She responds very quickly and always helps when necessary. We will definitely come back and can highly recommend the accommodation.

Family celebration for 90 year old father!
Absolutely fantastic stay! I come to Madeira yearly and when I’m with family I ALWAYS stay at either Leahouse or Laurishouse and you cant beat the location and the fantastic community! With the highway right there you can go everywhere. When we have any issues they respond quickly and never a problem! The houses have EVERYTHING! Top quality! Strongly recommend, you wont be disappointed!!

Great place to relax and go for long walks
We enjoyed a week at this house in Prazeres. House is fully-equipped with everything you could ask for; with the added benefit of being in a quiet neighborhood with a high percentage of residents who have moved here from other countries, leading to many interesting conversations. Beds and furniture were comfortable, WiFi was always available and reasonably fast. Located close to the Farmer's Market that is open on Sunday mornings. There are several small restaurants and mini-marts nearby to keep you well-supplied. Bus stop is located 5-10 minute walk from house. Excellent buffet restaurant inside Hotel Jardim Atlantico, about a 20-minute walk....a bit longer if you go to enjoy the beautiful sunsets.

Excellent base for exploring the western half of Madeira
The property is located in a quiet and rural setting and provided us with an excellent base for the many hikes we did over western Madeira. The equipment and facilities are as advertised with several restaurants within walking distance. There is also secure, off-street parking which is very helpful given that the local streets are narrow. Our stay during February included a few cool days and the provided heating (wood burning fire, gas heater) were unable to keep the large living/dining space warm. At the end of our stay, the temperature rose and this was no longer an issue. There are also several cracked panes of glass that need to be replaced for this to be a 5-star property.

Perfect dream house!!!
Hello Cátia! Thank you for a wonderful vacation in your dream house! From the beginning till to the end it was a perfect holiday. We have felt very comfortable in your house. The location was perfect for us. There is a supermarket nearby and some restaurants are within walking distance. The equipment of the house leaves nothing to be desired, nothing is missing. The house is just fantastic. Unfortunately we have not met you personally, but herewith all greetings to Paul. Everything worked out wonderful. He was very helpful and explained everything to us well! We enjoyed our holiday very much and it was very difficult for us your house and Madeira again to leave. We would definitely come back. There is still so much to experience on the island. Again a big THANK YOU! to you and your family and hopefully see you next time. Lovely greetings from Melanie & Dubi!

Great, modern base for hiking
We chose this beautiful modern house for a few days of relaxation and exploration after an intense work trip and it was good. The house is modern and clean and comfortable. The furniture new and nice and all appliances the same. There are huge doors you can slide open to bring the outside in and comfortable outdoor furniture. The town is about as rural as you can find on this surprisingly populated island and we enjoyed exploring the coffee shops and local hikes. Easy to get here from anywhere on the island with a car. There are a few things could be improved to make it feel more like a home and less like leftovers from someone else’s house. There were only 2 bowls and no cutting board. Otherwise, the kitchen was well equipped. It would be great to have some basics like olive oil, basic spices and laundry detergent but maybe past visitors have abused things like this. The beds are rock hard - 1 the hardest I’ve ever felt, the smallest reasonable so we slept in there after the first uncomfortable night. There not being any heating except for additional pay was surprising, especially since it was cranking when we arrived. Then we never turned it n again after reading the instruction book. The arrival instruction were sent as PDFs that opened as lots of code and nothing readable. We waited a while after arriving to receive a code for the lock box after trying to call text and email through the app. Everything was fine after that but I feel like we missed some info.

Sehr schöner Ort, tolle Lage des Hauses
Der Ort liegt abseits von allem Trubel und genau das ist es was wir gesucht haben. Als Startpunkt für verschiedenen Wandertouren optimal, ein Auto war nur erforderlich um zum Startpunkt zu kommen. Der Supermarkt im Ort war für uns ausreichend, dass Restaurant an der Tankstelle mit seinen typischen portugiesischen Gerichten, den tollen Weinen und dem traumhaften Sonnenuntergang können wir allen nur ans Herz legen. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder !! Wer allerdings Party, Unterhaltung und Ausgehmöglichkeiten, Shoppingerlebnisse sucht ist hier falsch. Die Natur, die Ruhe liegt im Vordergrund und das muss man mögen. Eine rundum wunderschöne Woche und das Haus war sauber, toll ausgestattet, gute Beschreibungen und Tipps vom Vermieter, wir kommen sehr gerne wieder, vielleicht dann in das Nachbargebäude mit Pool ?

South Madeira Idyll
Lovely small town of Prazeres with multiple excellent restaurants and a lovely well appointed house. Very clean & spacious for the 4 of us with outside space for relaxing in the evening. Air Con was a blessing ! One improvement would be a more modern smart TV to access Netflix etc especially for the youngsters, other than this its perfect.

Klein gemoedelijk dorpje met enkele restaurantjes en een supermarkt. Auto wel nodig als je iets van Madeira wilt zien. Parkeren op de oprit van het huis, met hek ervoor desgewenst zelfs in garage! Mooie plek om vakantie te houden.

Prachtig huis in rustige omgeving
Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien en is zeer mooi gebouwd. Parkeren kan op eigen terrein of in de eigen garage zonder dat je steile beklimmingen hebt. Vanuit het huis is ‘s avonds de zonsondergang heel mooi te zien boven de Atlantische oceaan. Rondom het huis zijn zitjes gecreëerd zodat je altijd wel een geschikt plekje vindt. Vanaf deze zitjes is het uitzicht vrij beperkt omdat het gehele terrein omheind is met een muur/glas afwisselend hoog en laag. Jammer is het dat deze mooie woning niet echt over een tuin beschikt. De drie slaapkamers en drie badkamers maken dat het zeker ook een huis is voor meerdere personen. Op loopafstand vind je een supermarkt, restaurants en cafés en levada’s. Wij hebben genoten van onze vakantie in dit mooie huis op een mooie plek.

Traumhaftes Feriendomizil
Wir waren vom Check-in über den gesamten Aufenthalt bis zur Abreise rundum zufrieden. Das Haus hat ein sehr schönes geräumiges Ambiente, von der Garage gelangt man mit den Einkäufen direkt in die Küche und Abstellkammer. Küche und Waschraum sind mit hochwertigen Geräten ausgestattet, alles ist top sauber. Das Haus ist ruhig gelegen und man hat die Möglichkeit direkt zu Wanderungen zu starten und trotzdem hat es auch eine gute Verkehrsanbindung. Nachts war es wunderbar ruhig und der Kamin hat uns manch gemütlichen Abend beschert. Schön wären ab und zu 1, 2 deutsche Fernsehsender für das Abendprogramm aber wir haben die gut ausgestattete kleine mehrsprachige Hausbibliothek in Kombination mit einem guten Madeirawein als Tagesausklang genossen. Wir können dieses Kleinod nur weiterempfehlen und werden es auch gern für unseren nächsten und 5. Madeira Urlaub buchen. Elke und Marcel
