Guestbook comments from the owner
We would like to thank you for the use of your villa for the last nine days. We had a great holiday. The weather was absolutely superb up until the final morning. We left for the airport at 7.30 a.m. and it was completely clouded over, damp and cold! It was really interesting to see the way the crops are grown in the terraces under Casa Faraway and around the whole island. We run an allotment in our village and rely on our own water supply so it was a real education to see what happens on the island.

Lovely villa in peaceful location
We had a wonderful stay at Casa Faraway. The décor wasn't to our taste and a little oppressive, but other than that, the villa had pretty much everything we could have wanted.
Positives: Amazingly beautiful views and peaceful location, well equipped (and very clean) villa with plenty of space
Negatives: Pool is very shallow - not really for swimming (this wasn't a problem for us, but might be for others); there is no air conditioning which would have been a plus although there is always a breeze.
We didn't hire a car and managed very well with the help of the wonderful Horgio - his contact details are in the information book - who turned up as and when required.
Overall, a very good location.
lovely villa, good location
We had a lovely week in Casa Faraway, the villa was very clean and in a good location. Riberia Brava is a lovely little town, with all the facilities you need, and Funchal is a short drive away. We experienced 2 issues during our stay, the washing machine leaked and blew the electrics, and the ironing board is broken. We reported the washing machine to the owners representative, Rosalia twice, but we recieved no response. Despite these issues we enjoyed our stay, particularly the view.
Fantastic spacious Villa in peaceful area
Lovely villa with a nice pool. Very spacious villa and the kids enjoyed the pool for cooling off during the sunshine. Rosalia the property manager was very helpful and met us at the car park at Campanario as the transfer company did not know the villa location. We had an issue with no water but a call to Rosalia and 10 minutes later it was resolved.
The villa itself is very spacious and has a bathroom on each floor as well as an en-suite in the master bedroom. The games room is a nice touch and well kitted out if the weather were such that you needed to stay indoors. We were lucky and didn't need to make use of it as there was plenty to do.
The owner does say a car is required and I would tend to agree, but it depends on how confident your are driving abroad. Personally we found a very nice local taxi driver called Carlos and he was brilliant. Always turned up when he said and his prices were reasonable.
All in all we were very happy with our stay and the villa itself. The island is beautiful and there is something there for everyone. I would happily recommend the villa to anyone as you won't be disappointed.
Comfortable Villa with stunning views near Ribeira Brava.
Me & my wife had an excellent stay in Casa Faraway. Villa is in quiet neighborhood, very spacious & has stunning views of the ocean/hill. It’s was a perfect property for relaxing break.
Villa location is ideal and provides easy access to Funchal and other attractions on the island.
Pool is shallow and was ideal for soaking which we wanted.
There are few grocery options within less than 5 min drive to Campanario & supermarkets in Riberira Brava. There are many good restaurants in Riberira Brava and everywhere on the island. Cafe by the car park meeting point with the property Manager when we arrived serves very tasty snacks.
Rosalia (The property manager) is very helpful & gave us very detailed briefing of all the things/amenities in the villa. She was available whenever we phoned her
One minor issue during our stay was with en-suite bath shower screen which wasn’t staying in place.
Overall, very good villa, good location, stunning views & comfortable stay. Would recommend to anyone thinking of renting it.
Large spacious villa ideal for families
Lovely holiday - we visited in winter and the pool could of been warmer and it felt slightly damp in some rooms but that said the owners were lovely, were prompt to rectify any issues. View is stunning and it's so quiet. Funchal is about 25 mins by taxi but local towns 10 mins away. Great place to stay .
October break
A beautiful home for the perfect relaxing break!
Location
Casa Faraway is located in a quiet rural environment, overlooking the Atlantic ocean (where the odd whale can be viewed). The villa is situated in the Southern middle region of the island (35 minutes Airport) which is a perfect location to explore the island by bus, foot, or car, be it the coast or some of the island highest mountains. Airport transfer is available and for your peace of mind you have representative support during your stay should you require help. Pricing includes heated pool (optional). The Villa is close to local shops cafes and bars. All amenities are available in Ribeira Brava which is 5 minutes away by car. It is close to one of the islands longest Levadas. (Levada da Nord). The island has many activities and attractions to offer.(listed in the villa info pack), from horse riding to 4x4s (4x4 routes maps available from us). There are many museums, historic houses/churches, gardens, 8 cable cars (including the worlds steepest), beaches, sea pools, diving, walking, worlds highest cliffs, sports facilities, canyoning (world site), golf (3 courses), shopping, fantastic scenery, waterfalls, etc. We can suggest many things to do and see that are not in the tourist books.
