Rhapsodic Window Onto This Island Jewel
Part II of my Review The small community of Loreto where the Casa is located, has one main street with several bars, an appliance shop, a market, and a grocery store. The grocery is well stocked (and there is also a chain of large modern groceries scattered around the island). We enjoyed Sunday service at the Catholic Church in town with its outside pews. We also especially enjoyed discovering the network of verada that connected homes and gardens in the terrraced hillsides. Suddenly, at the end of a week we uncovered the community of this lovely little town. Many thanks to Odete and João who welcomed us so graciously to their property. Odete was particularly helpful in responding immediately to questions about the very modern kitchen appliances (a convection oven and an induction range). I am pleased to be able to sing the praises of Casa da Bordadeira with unrestrained enthusiasm.

Lovely little property
We stayed at the Casa da Bordadeira over Christmas and had a fabulous time. The property was a cosy little place to spend time together, and a great base for hitting the Levada walks. Communication before arrival from the host was excellent and clear, and included everything we needed to know before arriving, during our stay and upon departure. The view from the property has to be seen to be believed, absolutely stunning. Though do make sure you are a confident driver in a good quality hire-car, as it's quite the rollercoaster ride getting up and down the incredibly steep hills! Be aware that the bedroom is near to a road with frequent passing cars - it didn't bother us, but worth being aware of if you are particularly sensitive to traffic noise at night. All in all, a great stay - thank you to our hosts for having us :)

Perfect little house on the hill
This house is perfect for two people and is fully equipped with everything you may need. I particularly liked sitting in the little garden looking out at the ocean. For us the location was ideal, there is a supermarket, bar and restaurant within easy walking distance and the drive to the beach at Calheta, where there are more restaurants, takes about 5 minutes. Joao speaks excellent English, thank goodness, and made us feel very welcome and relaxed. Driving around Madeira can be a bit tricky as some of the hills are extremely steep and away from the towns the roads can be poorly maintained. Whilst there we walked four of the levada routes which is an excellent way of seeing Madeira and meeting people. We did try to book an ocean tour to see the whales and dolphins but we left it too late in our stay and missed out due to ocean conditions so if this is something you would like to do check it out early in your stay. We would love to visit Madeira again and would have no hesitation in staying in this little house but we would probably visit in July/August when the weather is usually better.

Das hübsche Ferienhäuschen war mit allem, was für einen perfekten Urlaub notwendig ist, ausgestattet. Die sehr freundlichen Vermieter begrüßten uns mit frischen Blumen und Obst in einer Unterkunft mit vielen Annehmlichkeiten. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der tolle Blick von der hübschen Terrasse.

Idylle für 2
Wir haben den Aufenthalt in diesem herrlichen kleinen Häuschen sehr genossen. Die Kommunikation mit dem freundlichen Vermieter hat bestens funktioniert. Der kleine Garten mit dem herrlichen Blick aufs Meer ist ein Traum. Beste Ausgangslage für Wanderungen im Herzen von Madeira. Wir haben täglich frischen Fisch in der sehr gut sortierten Auslage des großen Supermarktes im Hafen von Calheta gekauft und den Außengrill angeheizt. Die Küche ist super ausgestattet und wenn man mal keine Lust zum kochen hat, gibt es fussläufig eine sehr gute Pizzeria im Ort. Von uns unbedingt volle Punktzahl. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Schönes kleines Haus in wundervoller Lage
Wir haben 2 Wochen über Weihnachten und Neujahr in Loreto verbracht und waren insgesamt sehr zufrieden mit unserer Wahl. Das Haus hat einen traumhaften Ausblick und Sonne von morgens bis abends. Hier kann man die Seele baumeln lassen. Die Ausstattung ist gut und wir haben sogar den kleinen Kamin eingeheizt. Die Lage ist ideal für Ausflüge in allen Richtungen. So konnten wir die Insel ausführlich erkunden und die wundervolle Natur genießen. Die Empfehlungen von Joao waren sehr hilfreich. Wir haben sehr gut in New Era (Calheta Marina; super Espada & Steak) und Santo Antonio (Camara de Lobos; super Espetada) gegessen. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Kleine Oase
Ich durfte 1 Woche dort Verbringen, Hr. Rodrigues hat mir das Haus gezeigt und alles erklärt, was ich musste. Es ist sehr gut ausgestattet ( hatte verschiedene Gewürze, Öl, Kaffee..) zudem gab es noch frische Blumen und Früchte sowie den klassischen Madeira Kuchen. Ausserdem gab es Bücher ( Deutsch und Englisch) Tipps z.B. wo man Essen kann... Und was heutzutage leider auch im Urlaub immer wichtiger wird, ein gutes W-lan. welches inkl. war. 1 Stern ziehe ich ab, dafür das es (persönliches Empfinden) sehr lange dauert bis warmes Wasser zum Duschen kommt ( nicht wegen des Wartens sondern wegen dem "verschwenden" vom Wasser) und dem Staub auf dem Schrank ( wollte meine Koffer drauf legen, dadurch habe ich es entdeckt resp. Spinnweben an der Decke. Trotzdem würde ich ohne Bedenken, das Haus erneut mieten, da es einen Wundervollen Ausblick bietet und als Ausgangspunkt für verschiedene Wanderungen sowie in Sachen wie Ausstattung einfach Perfekt ist.
