Brazão Guest House

Location for visiting Santana was good. Proximity to many hikes. Value for money and best to visit in sunny, warm weather. Kitchen had all we needed and the views of the country lovelly.

We had 5 days of rain, and due to lack of heat, nothing would dry in the house. Laundry took two days with two plug in space heaters running. Towels never dried..

Self checki-n was smooth and easy, host was easy to communicate. House very spacious and with all things needed. Nice thing - two bedrooms have separate batchrooms. Big private parking. House is located away from main streets so no city noise, very quiet, only nice chirping of birds. Nice views from living room big windows. It was actually sad when leaving the house coz it felt so "at home". Even though I thought it will be long drive to objects, in fact it was much easier than looked on map and was really fast - we reached pico Ruivo parking lot in less than 30 mins, so did the sunrise hike which was the best part of travel, funchal was ~45mins of drive.

Amazingly spacious house fitted with all amenities. Great view and short walk to the ocean. Quiet village with few tourists (we stayed 24-30 Dec). Small shop and bars/restaurants nearby, bus stop nearby. Amazing hikes to be done from here (we loved Vereda do Arieiro). Ana proved to be a very helpful and responsive host.

We stayed over the Christmas period and it was a little chilly in the house at night. There is no central heating so we had to make do with some electric heaters. Some extra towels would have been nice. One set each for one week isn't much. There was some mould in the shower but Ana immediately offered to send someone round to clean this up.

Very big, clean and cozy house.

Big , clean , comfortable, and very good equipped house : 3 bedrooms , big living room and big kitchen , 2 bathrooms. There is a nice sitting area outside in the garden with an amazing view. The house has everything you might need. Ana prepared an information booklet, which helped us to organize our stay in Madeira. There is a good and easy levada hiking trail not far from the place. We were completely undependent with the check-in and check out. However, Ana was always available for any questions and was ready to help. I recommend this house to stay in Madeira.

Only narrow roads to get to the house, but it's normal in Madeira

The house is spacious and well kept.

It would be nice to have extra towels and bed linen during our stay. There is a washing machine in the house so we did laundry but drying took awhile. Also a BBQ would be great to have 😊

A lovely location looking over the town of Sao Jorge, the hills and the ocean, and an easy walk to the restaurants and minimarket. The house was spacious, fully equipped and nicely decorated and check-in was very easy.
