A beautifully peaceful spot to stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our walks on the farm, and stargazing from the hot tub. The accommodation was clean and cozy. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the bathroom was neat with a large shower.

Las Lagunas country house in Tunte

MikeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Elena’s place was well provisioned and a home away from home. The outside patio was spectacular with lounges, chairs, tables, hot tub, and even a ping pong table! The one challenge was the windy roads getting there. Extraordinary scenery, but keep your eye on the road! Great home base for rock climbing at Fataga and Sorrueda.

Tropical Lovers - Levada & Bananas cliff

MichelleRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We absolutely loved our stay here! Absolutely beautiful location and it was quiet and peaceful. It was a great place to come relax mid-day between adventures, and we loved using the jacuzzi at the end of the day after hiking and exploring Madeira! Gomes also gave great recommendations and we really enjoyed some of his restaurant recommendations and a local poncha bar. If we ever come back we would definitely stay here again!

Cosy stone house with mountain view in Olympos

HumayunRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Very quiet and remote stone house. It’s a plot with three houses but it is still very private. Lovely view of the mountains and scenery from the back porch and from the jacuzzi. You will need use taxis or have your own transport to get there - there are no public transport options. It’s a lovely place for a couple to get away from it all and relax. Stock up on some shopping on your way there. Olimpos beach and the ruins are ten minutes away by taxi.

Cottage Pearl-Rural Holiday Experience by SeaPearl

Everything was exactly as described and in the photos. Requests were responded to immediately. The place was very clean. The bed could be a little higher quality (if I turned around the whole bed wobbled and my wife was awake). Otherwise everything was great.

Little Paradise

LidiaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Peaceful haven, green setting, with superb sea views, the islands of Elafonisos and Cythera. Ideal to unwind. The small town of Neapoli, after several turns on a good road, offers the necessary (food stores, cafes, taverns, etc.). Kimo's advice was excellent and the visits from the property's kitten were full of affection.

Had one of the best experiences staying at the lovely cottage. Robert and George’s place is a wonder to behold and spend time in. Peaceful, soothing and charming environment to reconnect with what’s really important in life; the present moment, nature and loved ones. Cannot wait to come back, share the experience with others and enjoy more great conversations with Robert about the beautiful property, his cuddly four paw friends, his amazing fruits and mushrooms✨

Tabobo Cottage

FrancescaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Montse was very kind and welcoming. He gave us excellent advice on places to visit, suggesting above all less touristy places. In a week, we leisurely explored a good part of the island. The house, essential but well-equipped, is in a quiet location 1 km from Tinajo, a town with all the services. Thanks to its location, it is a good base for exploring the island. 20/40 minutes by car from the main attractions. We did not enjoy the courtyard because the weather was not sunny during our stay, but on the other hand we practiced yoga in the yurt with the guidance of Montse who is a very good teacher, even for beginners. Very pleasant stay, highly recommended.

Country house in Anaga

MegRating, 5 stars4 days ago
We loved our stay here in Los Carbonaras. The house was beautiful, functional, and had everything we needed. The only note for other people is to know the walls in the bedrooms don't go all the way up so you can hear each others (watch out for snores!). But it absolutely did not detract from the experience. We had a lot of fun cooking in the kitchen and enjoying the ourside terrace. The views from the place are stunning and it is a great location to explore the area by foot. The property is part of a small farm and Yanira's mother was an attentive neighbor who let us have some of their fresh grown spinach. They also left us some fresh eggs and fruit in the house. We really enjoyed the walks between the villages, which we mostly did on the road since there were so few cars. Nature was right on the doorstep, with plenty of birds, butterflies and plants to satisfy us nature nerds. We would absolutely come back in a heartbeat.

Tandala Cottage

ClaudiaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a wonderful stay at Frankie’s cottage—such a peaceful and special place surrounded by nature. The garden is beautiful and well cared for, and the house has everything you need for a relaxing break. On our drive in at night, we were lucky enough to spot bat-eared foxes, which was such a magical surprise! We also had some car trouble, and Frankie recommended a reliable mechanic. Thanks to her help, we were able to get everything sorted and make it back to Nairobi without a problem. Frankie is a fabulous host—warm, thoughtful, and always ready to help. We’d love to come back!

Villa San Pietro - walking distance to everything!

JanneRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Best honeymoon place in Platanias ❤️ We thought the accommodation was perfect. A peaceful retreat in an excellent location. Shops, the beach, and great restaurants were all within walking distance. Despite this, the place offered complete privacy. A nearby restaurant also delivered food directly to the property upon request. The terrace area with the pool and barbecue was excellent. The kitchen, living room, and bedroom were beautifully decorated, and the bed in the bedroom was very comfortable to sleep in. Both the living room and bedroom had air conditioning. The accommodation also offered books to read as well as some board and card games. The owners were very easy to reach if needed. I absolutely recommend this place to everyone, and I hope to return again soon myself.
