9.6/10 Exceptional! (17 reviews)
Our stay at Villa Camelia was truly superb! Visiting in low season meant we had a near-empty property to enjoy - and it's a stunning house! The communal spaces are truly whimsical and there's something new to spot every time you walk through. Our room was very homely and the high ceilings on the upstairs level made it feel even more spacious. The breakfast served by Berta each morning was splendid, with lots of choice and all of it delicious. The grounds surrounding the house are plentiful and well-maintained and we cannot wait to return in the summer months to spend our downtime outside in the sun! Simply put; do not hesitate to book your stay here!

Ponta Do Sol Beach
This was taken on my way to the highest peak in Madeira, a beautiful little Portuguese isalnd near the African coast. I met the most friendliest people here on this isalnd. Madeira is so small that you do not need 1 month to go and see everything there is and elderly people speak very good English too ! #madeira #outdoor #nature #hiking
