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 :)

Good value apartment

Some noise at night/ music. Good location with cracking views. Earplugs at night recommended since you are cheek by jowl with other houses

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.

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.
