Valley of Nuns Holiday Apartments

Ausstattung, Parkmöglichkeiten, Personal super hilfsbereit, Größe des Appartments

La propreté, le confort du lit et la fonctionnalité de l'appartement, très bien équipé

Die Lage ist absolut hervorragend. Die Wohnung war sehr groß. Es gab eine große Terrasse. Für die Wäsche war Waschmittel vorhanden und stand bereit. Das einchecken mit Schlüsselkasten ging super.

Nice location, very kind owner. The apartment is very big, you have everything you need.

Great location! We had a lovely evening walk around the church and area after dinner. We met Manuel, the host, and he was very friendly. We were delighted to meet a fellow South African. We were grateful to use the laundry machine and the bathroom had shampoo, conditioner and soap! It was easy to check-in and out (just dropping the keys in a lockbox).

There were empty detergent containers on the laundry machine. We would have been happy to buy our own products, but the containers made the impression that we could use it. There was only 1 mug for the apartment, so we used our own travel cups to make coffee.

The location in the mountains of this spacious, top floor apartment is exceptional with panoramic views across the mountains and valley from both bedrooms and from the living room and wrap around balcony. The beautiful church opposite lights up and is magical at night. The double bed was very comfortable. Electric heaters kept us warm on the chillier nights; by day it was hot and sunny (April). Our kind host Manuel was on hand at all times as he runs the bar below where he gave us free coffee every morning and advice on buses etc. He became a real friend by the end of the week. The WiFi was excellent. The 7 day a week No 81 bus service is regular (every 1.5 hrs to a timetable) and reliable and for less than 3 euros drops you in the centre of Funchal at the end of the 45 minute stunning bus ride.. Curral des Freiras is a tourist attraction due to its beauty, road accessibility, paths for walkers and church so has several bars, lunchtime restaurants, tourist shops, supermarket. It's busy by day but quiet at night. We loved the community feel with locals meeting at the football bar which doubles as the bakery and the singing event we came across at the church.

Nothing. It more than met expectations.
