Escarpa - the Madeira Hideaway

Een privé parking is daar niet overbodige luxe! Dat was zeer handig. Het hotel complex is zeer ingenieus uitgedokterd en geeft veel privacy. Ontbijt is fantastisch en zicht op zee is verbluffend.

Kamer was 's nachts moeilijk te koelen met ventilatie systeem.

Le calme, la sérénité des lieux, la vue juste exceptionnel, le personnel avenant, un petit déjeuner avec produits de qualités préparé avec amour

Rien

Ausserordentliches Frühstück, grossartigen Ausblick auf das Meer, tolles Personal

ist etwas abgelegen --> ohne eigenes Auto schwierig zu erreichen

The breakfast each morning was fantastic, the staff couldn’t do enough for you as a guest and the views just topped it off, incredible. The restaurant owned by the hotel is also amazing, you need to make a reservation but we are here twice and could have even gone for a 3rd! I read lots of reviews regarding parking availability and the steep hill up to the parking however myself and partner did not find a problem with either and would encourage to not let it put you off visiting, I was expecting it to be much more worse.

Our lizard friend who lived with us for the week that we couldn’t seem to catch, however he was harmless and did not make it back in any suitcases.

Although there are so many wonderful things about this hotel as others have mentioned (the views, the breakfast, the infinity pool), I just want to share the negative from our experience as I wish I had read such a review prior to choosing to stay here. During our stay, we saw about 8-10 lizards in our room, crawling on the floors/walls, in the curtains and coming out of the drain in the shower. We also noticed more and more in the traps around the room everyday. The final straw was when we found one crawling in our bed! After that, we had finally had enough and my husband approached the owner to let her know that we wanted to check out early and request a refund for the remaining time due to the circumstances. He was met with no understanding, apology or empathy from the owner and a reluctance to give us a refund for the unused night (although she did end up doing so). We were told that the lizards were common and to be expected here and that we could have found that out online. If you would not be okay with lizards in your room, I would seriously consider staying somewhere else.

Absolut außergewöhnliches, gesundes Frühstücksbuffet mit regionalen Produkten. Eigentümerin Petra hat jeden Tag zusätzlich noch eine Überraschung anzubieten. Die Eierspeisen werden individuell mit jedem Gast abgestimmt. Teesorten und Kaffee hochwertig. Das kleine Hotel hat eine sehr persönliche Atmosphäre an einer wunderschönen Lage inmitten einer Bananplantage mit freiem Blick aufs Meer.

Alles perfekt!
