Quinta Falcoes, luxury villa, sleeps 8, stunning sea views, heated pool

The villa has stunning views of the sea and mountains. It was built to a luxury specification and the architect has done a wonderful job, taking advantage of the views by designing a 4 bedroom villa which fits perfectly in the land entitled ' Sitio dos Falcoes' (site of the falcons) and creating all 'rooms with a view'. The villa has 3 double rooms & 1 twin with comfortable beds and pillows, duvets, blankets, built in wardrobes and wonderful views of the sea. The villa has 4 bathrooms, two are en-suite, one family bathroom and an additional w/c room. The villa has a sociable open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room area with amazing views of the sea. The kitchen is well equipped with dishwasher, fridge/freezer (incl. ice-maker), hob and electric fan oven. On the veranda is a large eight seater table and a large BBQ. The Cinema / Games Room provides either a haven to escape from the sun, entertainment on rainy days or a venue for after-dinner contests.
On the pool veranda you are surrounded by tropical plants while the kestrels, buzzards and falcons that gave the villa its name circle and hunt. At night the starry skies are amazing. The villa has internet access / WiFi.
Within 20-30 minutes drive you can be at a sandy beach or hiking along a levada in the rainforests, taking a whale and dolphin viewing trip at sea or game fishing. While there are great restaurants a short drive away, we think the best view is from our dining tables and the huge, well equipped BBQ is great for cooking local fish or skewered steak (the local speciality of espetada).

Lovely House in Madeira
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this excellent villa. The weather was a bit hit and miss but we were still able to use the pool as it is heated. The house is spacious with a very useful games room that kept the kids entertained. There is plenty to do locally and the house is a good base for trips across the island.

Amazing views
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful villa We were two families staying together with 2 kids (10,12 year old) We had an absolutely wonderful time! The pool was great, stunning views and comfortable house. We travelled all over the island for hikes, restaurants and activities easily and always appreciated coming back to the villa to enjoy the stunning views. There is a great coffee roastery about 15 minutes away by the lighthouse we really enjoyed going to. We hope to be back!

Fantastic stay
Quinta Falcoes is located in a quieter part of Madeira which was exactly what we were looking for. The stunning photos don't even do this villa justice. It's in an absolutely beautiful location and feels very private in that the pool area isn't directly overlooked by other houses. The views of the sea cliffs on a daily basis from the house and pool area were inspirational. Internet was reliable and fast. Jon and Virginia were gracious hosts and quick to reply when we reached out with any questions. We would absolutely visit Madeira and stay at Quinta Falcoes again in a heartbeat.

Fabulous Villa
Lovely villa with a stunning view accompanied by Falcons visiting every day. Well appointed with plenty of space and the heated pool was the icing on the cake. Fabulous for the children with their own area downstairs when they were not in the pool. Very clean and well thought out. The service we received from the owners was the best we have ever had, with lots of information and a welcome pack. Highly recommended!

Better than the pictures
We had a great stay at this gorgeous accomadation. The pictures do not do it justice. The view from the top level of the property were very special....we watched the sunset many times. The pool was a good size as were the bedrooms and barthrooms. The villa was a great place to visit all key viewpoints, lavada walks (we did PR1, PR11, PR 6, and the hard part of PR19, which is close to the villa), dolphin watching from Funchal marina. Calheta beach, the natural pools at Seixal, the lighthouse and Paul do Mar. The local supermarket by the petrol station had all the food and basics you would need. The cafe on the site also had a bakery selling delicious bread rolls and egg tarts. It sold egg tarts and coffee for 1.5 euros!!! I would fully recommend a stay at this villa. Thanks to John and Virginia, we have all fallen in love with Madeira and would be happy to visit again.

Great family stay
Stayed here with parent, adult siblings and our 8m old- whole age range. Really enjoyed; - the views. It's like being on a ship with uninterrupted ocean views (though was quite cloudy some days so consider the season you're going) - the space. Baby loved crawling around and we all had enough space to retreat if maxed out socially - games room especially variety of DVDs, games and books There were some very last minute changes to the family holiday and hosts were reachable, thanks for that. I found the drives to various places on the island hit and miss as it was often ~1hr drive depending where you're going. Sometimes it worked perfectly with baby's nap and other times it was pretty challenging so a consideration for anyone who wouldn't want much driving.

Absolute Ungestörtheit in Mitten der Natur
Wir haben es sehr genossen viel Platz zu haben und auch bei schlechtem Wetter in den wunderbar warmen Pool zu springen. Die Einrichtung ist stellenweise nicht mehr ganz neu und man sieht auch die feuchte Umgebung, jedoch ist das Haus auf keinen Fall muffig. Es ist liebevoll und gemütlich eingerichtet und absolut sauber. Bei Bedarf stehen Reinigungsmittel, Besen und Staubsauger zur Verfügung. Die Kommunikation mit dem Eigentümer war exzellent und lösungsorientiert. Es wurde sofort und unkompliziert reagiert, als wir Probleme mit dem Pool hatten. Danke noch einmal. Direkt vor der Haustür startet ein toller Wanderweg hinab in die Schlucht, der mit den Kindern viel Spaß gemacht hat. Es ist alles da, von Handseife, Spüli, Tabs und Waschmittel. In der Küche finden sich auch ein paar Gewürze. Unbedingte Empfehlung- wir wollen wieder kommen!

Perfekt for flere generationer
Rigtig dejlig ferie. Smukke omgivelser, pragtfuld udsigt, perfekt hus til flere familier sammen, herlig pool. Et dejligt område, der ikke er for præget af turister. Lidt svært at finde frem til indkøbsmuligheder og restauranter, men de er faktisk i området. Kommunikation med agenturet var fraværende. Kommunikationen foregik direkte med ejeren, der til gengæld sendte en meget udførlig velkomstpakke, Minusser:- - opvaskemaskinen kunne være bedre. - der er rotter i området. En enkelt nat kom der en ind i huset, fordi en dør stod åben. - vandet smager ikke godt, selv om det kan drikkes.

Insgesamt ein wunderschöner Urlaub!
Das Ferienhaus war einfach wunderbar - der Blick auf das Meer und die Berge laden zum Träumen ein! Vom Pool und auch aus jedem Zimmer kann man diesen Blick genießen. Dazu frische Garnelen vom Grill und der Tag ist perfekt. Die Matratzen in den Zimmern sind leider schon etwas durchgelegen. Das ist das einzige gewesen, was wir „bemängeln“ könnten. Doch insgesamt waren wir sehr zufrieden und wollen sehr gerne wieder kommen!

Schön aber Luft nach oben
Wir waren 2 Wochen mit 5 Erwachsenen im Ferienhaus. Die Lage und der Blick sind phänomenal. Das Haus selbst hat einige Mängel vor allem in der Küche. Es fehlte uns einiges an Küchenutensilien und die Küchengeräte sind z.T. kaputt (Dunstabzugshaube) oder funktionieren schlecht ( Geschirrspülmaschine). Wir haben einige Dinge beim Vermieter angefordert und diese auch unverzüglich erhalten . Wir kochen gerne und deshalb haben uns die Mängel in der Küche gestört- die vielen Eidechsen und Ameisen in der Küche und Wohnzimmer sind auch gewöhnungsbedürftig. Auch hätten wir uns über ein Starterset wie Salz , Pfeffer etc. gefreut aber es war absolut nichts im Haus , was wir so noch nie erlebt haben. Die Liegestühle sind in schlechtem Zustand und bei Sonne gibt es auf der Terrasse kaum Beschattung. Insgesamt stimmt das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis allerdings würden wir uns eher nicht mehr für dieses Objekt entscheiden .

Auch im Februar fantastisch!
Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche im Februar verbracht. Das Wetter war zwar wechselhaft, aber auch in dieser Zeit überwiegend freundlich (kurze Ärmel-Wetter!). Das Haus hat eine tolle Lage, ist modern eingerichtet, hat viele große Fenster, vor allem von jedem (!) Schlafzimmer fantastischer Blick aufs Meer, und von der Terrasse aus bis zum Leuchtturm von Ponta do Pargo. Der Pool ist sehr gut geheizt und wir konnten ihn trotz der Jahreszeit häufig nutzen. Das Spielezimmer im Keller, insbesondere die Tischtennisplatte, wurde von unseren Jugendlichen gerne genutzt. Die Küche und der Grillplatz sind schön. Ein Starterkit für die Küche (Tee, Zucker, Salz, Pfeffer) war vorhanden, ebenso ein paar Spülmaschinen- und Waschmaschinentabs. Ebenso etwas Grillkohle. Ein paar kleine Verbesserungsvorschläge: - bessere WLAN-Abdeckung auch in den Schlafzimmern und vor allem im Hobby-Keller (dann könnte man an dem Riesenfernseher auch einen Streaming-Stick einsetzen) - Guter Staubsauger für zwischendurch - CD-Spieler läuft nicht stabil. Schade, denn die CD-Auswahl war super! Das alles sind keine Beanstandungen, eher kleine Verbesserungsvorschläge. Denn ansonsten für die Lage, die Gemütlichkeit und den netten Kontakt volle Punktzahl. Vielen Danke!

Toller Blick und Ruhe
Das Haus hat uns sehr gefallen. Es steht auf einem Hang und bietet von jedem Zimmer ungestörten Blick aufs Meer. Das Dorf hat nicht viel Leben, daher bekommt man dort richtige Ruhe. Man kann vom Haus aus eine Wanderung zur Küste starten. Im Wohnzimmer am Erdgeschoß gibt es Spiele, Puzzles, Bücher, Tischtennis. Man findet also was zu tun auch bei schlechtem Wetter. Hinter dem Pool gibt es ein Sitzeck - mit Blick auf Berghang und das Meer. Perfektes Ort für Entspannung und Abschalten.

Rainbows on the ocean
A beautiful house, location and views are more beautiful than words can say! We enjoyed 2 1/2 Werkseinstellungen the villa fudging November. Sun came on träge terrace at about 10am and lasted till it disappeared in the ocean. All rooms were arranged perfectly, swimming in the warm pool was refreshing, kitchen and cooking was a pleasure in this surrounding. Totally quiet and peaceful, only the Falcones (Quinta falcones :-) ) were always letting us know that they were flying above us. Supermarket in Calheta perfectly stuffed, hiking areas near by, a car is highly recommended. A lot of recommendations for everything (house, restaurants, trips, contacts, …) is waiting for the guests inside the house - lovely described by the owners. We are happy to have all the memories know and wish everyone, who will stay at this beautiful Hause in the future, a wonderful time! Enjoy that unique experience. Thanks to Jon who was our point of contact for the always fast and polite communication.

Tolle Lage & Aussicht
Das Haus mit schönem Pool liegt mit sensationellem Ausblick auf das Meer & Berge im ruhigen Faja de Ovelha circa 1,5 Std. von Flughafen im Süden und anderen Ende der Insel. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten/Restaurants circa 15 min entfernt, Auto ist unerläßlich! Mobiliar insgesamt etwas abgewohnt (Schlafzimmer/Bäder/Türen), Küche & Geräte sind top. An Utensilien in der Küche fehlt es etwas z.B. Nudelzange, Eierbecher, Korkenzieher (haben wir jetzt spendiert) etc. . Leider stand uns die angegebene Waschmaschine & Trockner nicht zur Verfügung (Zimmer war abgeschlossen), was wir bedauerten. Auch war der elektrische Toröffner defekt, was wir dem Hausmeister mitteilten, aber während unseres Aufenthaltes nicht behoben werden konnte. Die Liegen/Auflagen am Pool müssten demnächst ersetzt werden, sind durchgelegen. Eine Aussendusche wäre perfekt gewesen, leider nicht vorhanden. Auch den Schacht hinter dem Pool halten wir für Familien mit Kindern etwas kritisch- Absturzgefahr. Könnte man sichern und abdecken. Insgesamt ein wunderschönes Haus mit kleinen Abstrichen. Luxus-Haus würden wir es nicht mehr bezeichen.

Wonderful Holidays in Madeira
We spent two weeks in this wonderful villa during our first visit to Madeira. It's a quiet place to enjoy amazing views down the cliffs over the sea. The sunsets evening by evening were just stunning. And due to the nice architecture with huge windows, we could enjoy this scenes from every room in the house! Our hosts provided lots of useful information to make our stay as easy and pleasant as possible.
