Valley of Nuns Holiday Apartments

The biggest highlight is the view of the mountains from the balcony, it is beyond beautiful and so incredible to be so close to nature. There is a lovely walk two minutes away, where there are picnic benches on the side of the town where you can look at the beautiful views. The property itself is great. Clean, functional, quiet. It wasn't the most modern but that didn't bother us in the slightest. We were there for the nature.

Apartment was cold despite using the heaters. Bedroom was nice, however we felt the description was misleading, yes we could see the mountain but only a tiny, thin balcony overlooking the back of the property which was quite grotty. Very strange layout of lounge and kitchen, not at all homely, dark claustrophobic and basic. Position of TV too high. Kitchen not that well equipped, no sharp knives to prepare food, no recycling facilities. We wouldn’t book again as not good value for money. Owner was friendly and responsive.

The host was very nice and welcoming

The sofa bed wasn’t a proper bed as advertised, just a sofa with a folding back.

Manuel was really friendly and gave us loads of great information about Madeira and local area. Place was clean and we could even wash our clothes.

Fantastic Location with great views. We loved being out and away from the main city area. Serie, the valley is so beautiful! We arrived at 23:30, and were met by the property keeper even though he didn’t have to do so. The apartment was very clean.

Manuel was really friendly and helpful with quick replies to messages. Very central. Spacious and clean with really comfortable bed. Great water pressure in shower. Really helpful to have car parking in garage. Nice balcony to sit outside. Will definitely stay again.

Nothing to dislike
