Simply the best in Madeira
I cannot emphasise what an AMAZING time we had in Madeira at Villa Luz. The views from the villa were breathtaking….the villa was huge and impeccably clean. Marte and Jose were the best hosts we could gave hoped for. Marte speaks fluent English and Jose speaks very well too (much better than my Portuguese!) Jose met us at our car hire place so we could follow him to the villa for the first time, thank you Jose (you do need a car for this villa if you plan to explore). Marte and Jose also took us to the supermarket for our first shop, just what we needed. Marte gave us lots of tips and advice for our stay, nothing was too much trouble. I won’t lie, the hills are steep in places (all over the island if go away from the coast) and a bit scary at first but you get used to it and there is very little traffic on the roads in this area so you can take your time. This villa is ideal if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of Funchal and want a perfect base to explore this beautiful island. I would not hesitate to recommend Villa Luz and we will be back asap….can’t wait!

Villa Luz, Madeira, March 2023
We were met by the owner Marta who very kindly walked us thru' the accomodation and explained the in's & out's for us. The property was lovely and very spacious for 2 and could very easily take more. Every thing was very clean and the kitchen well stocked. Marta kept in contact to make sure we were ok and even suggested some trips. If we return to Madeira, we will certainly try to re-book this property. Marta even came to see us off on the last morning. Highly, highly recommended accomodation.

Breathtaking Views
Nothing can really prepare you for how breathtaking the views are from Villa Luz. The altitude is disorienting whether you're looking at the vast open ocean to the south or the deep valley to the west with terraced farms and gorgeous homes. We hiked the levada which is adjacent to the property for about two miles, mostly level. Good restaurants are 8 minutes away, either down in Santa Cruz or, our preference, Santo da Serra. The interior of the home is large and very comfortable. Marta and Jose were perfect hosts, full of good information, and nearby in case we had any needs. When I return to Madeira I'm staying here again.

Fabulous villa with the most helpful Hosts
Marta and Jose are very generous hosts . The villa has such amazing views and facilities that we would throughly recommend it. Marta so kindly came tothe airport to show us the way to the villa which helped us very much overcome our anxiety about driving the hills of Madeira. We loved the amazing views, luxuries of the villa and the fresh mountain air. The fruits from their organic farm which is close by were so flavoursome we brought some back home. Marta also helped us with booking our return covid test close by. Without a doubt Madeira and Villa Luz is the best place to holiday during these covid times.

Coming to where it all started
Have to say start out by saying what great host Jose and Marta were. Great communication through the entire process. This was a trip 2 years in the making and they were instrumental in making sure it went of without a hitch. The trip was an effort to come to the home of our grandparents to see were they were born and raised. They offered to come and pick us up at the airport for no charge, Jose was gracious enough to take us to the grocery store upon our arrival and wait for us. House was immaculate and very well kept. Surrounding area was quite and soothing. Access to transportation was plentiful and simple to arrange. There were five people in our group and still had plenty of room at the house. If your going to stay for any length of time, renting a car might be a good option. Marta was very accessible and informative about the area. She was also a godsend when it came to assisting with our exit COVID test. We were having issues basically due to the language difference and she was willing to contact them on our behalf and help us in getting it scheduled. Definitely will be our place of choice the next time we come back. Thanks for you hospitality and friendship. Lori, Janice, Debbie, Erin and Caroline from Florida

This is a great house with fantastic views. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming and Martha speaks English very well. The house was very clean and the rooms are huge. Anybody staying in the winter or early spring should consider paying for heating, as it is not included.

Spacious well equipped property with wonderful views
The house nestles into the hillside high in the hills above Santa Cruz which means there are wonderful views of the sea and terraced valley with its high waterfallls and wild flowers. The owners fruit farm is also visible. Here they grow many varieties of sub tropical fruits including anonas, lemon, lime, banana etc. The house is very comfortable and well equipped with a large covered parking area and large garden. The young couple that own the property were very friendly and helpful. They advised us on local markets, the best routes and all the other details that make a good stay into a superb stay.

Heerlijk huis, zeer gastvrije eigenaren.
Heerlijke week gehad in villa Luz. Ruim huis en alles aanwezig wat je nodig hebt. Groot terras, loopt van de voorkant naar de zijkant waardoor er altijd keus is voor zitten in de zon of in de schaduw. En het uitzicht....adembenemend ! Zee aan de ene kant, bergen aan de andere kant. Vanwege de ligging, in de bergen en niet in een plaatsje , is een auto noodzakelijk. Martha en José , bedankt voor het vele, heerlijke fruit en alle uitleg. Jullie zijn een geweldige gastvrouw en gastheer. Wij vonden het een plezier om jullie te lontmoeten. Wij komen graag een keer terug en maken dan graag gebruik van het aanbod om in jullie boomgaard te kijken.

Excellent house and extremely kind owners
We have just spent two weeks in Villa Luz and enjoyed every minut. The house is fairly new, very clean and with all you need to stay away from home. The view to the sea and the beautiful valley is breathtaking. You can walk along a levada just in front of the house up the valley to an interesting old Roman bridge. The owners Jose and Marta are extremely kind and helpful. Jose even took us to a big supermarket the first day, showed us Santa Cruz and the neighborhood and invited us to see his fields full of organic, tropical fruit. During our stay we did not buy any fruit - all was delivered by Jose and Marta which was very kind and appreciated. It certainly is a house and place we can recommend to everybody!

The property was perfect in every way - spacious and very well equipped to cater for all our needs.
We had a fantastic golfing holiday which was made all the more special due to the kindness and warmth of Jose and Marta, the owners. The villa was so fantastic we only went out one night because everything we needed was at our temporary home and the views we too gorgeous to miss - the photos could never do them justice. The bed was great quality so we slept well and the kitchen and utility room had everything we needed for our stay. It made a big difference that Marta provided some essentials to eat and drink as our flight was quite late in the evening. Also Jose took us straight to the big supermarket to buy essentials and not-so-essentials (wine!) I'm very glad we hired a car as it would have been quite a climb up the hill on foot. The undercover parking ensured the car was in shade so cool when not in use. The villa was beautifully clean and tidy without being clinical - a perfect balance of homeliness without the feel of being in someone else's home. We can't wait to return next year and would not stay anywhere else now that we've experienced the best. Some may see the lack of eating places within walking distance an issue but we loved the tranquility. Thanks to Jose, Marta and of course the beautiful Luzia

Viel Platz für Zwei
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt vom 16.04. bis 23.04.2024. Die Aussicht ist schön. Das Haus ist 10 Autominuten vom Flughafen entfernt am oberen Ende von Santa Cruz. Durch die wenigen Flugbewegungen am Tag, ist Fluglärm jedoch kein Thema. Die Anfahrt zum Haus ist nichts für ängstliche Fahrer, da teilweise sehr steil. Das Einzige was uns gefehlt hat, waren brauchbare Gartenmöbel mit Sitzkissen. Es gibt zwar Holzbänke und Klappstühle, aber nichts bequemes zum draußen Sitzen, wenn man deutsche Maßstäbe ansetzt. Die Vermieterin, Marta, gestattet das Pflücken von Bananen und Zitronen aus dem kleinen Garten. Und ganz besonders liebenswert: eine kleine, braune, verschmuste, verfressene und völlig verflöhte Hündin, die uns mehrmals täglich besucht hat. Insgesamt ist das Haus uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen.

Fantastische Aussicht
Die Anfahrt ist - wie für Madeira durchaus üblich - ein Abenteuer für sich, welches sich aber lohnt. Die Aussicht ist fantastisch, sowohl auf das Meer als auch in das Tal an dem die Wohnung liegt. Marta versorgt einen mit hilfreichen Tipps und Empfehlungen, z.B. eine entspanntere Route als Alternative zur Google Maps "der kürzeste Weg ist der beste Weg"-Route. Flugzeuge hört man keine, aber keine Sorge, der Hahn sorgt dafür das man nicht verschläft ;) tl;dr: Super Aussicht, freundliche Gastgeber, sehr zu Empfehlen

Das Haus ist riesig, sehr gepflegt und mit allem was man benötigt ausgestattet. Da die Terrasse nahezu einmal um das Haus rum geht, hat man immer die Möglichkeit einen Schatten-/Sonnenplatz zu finden. Die Kommunikation lief einwandfrei und sehr freundlich! Die Anfahrt ist für Madeira normal und mit ein wenig Übung und Mut problemlos. Alles in allem zu 100% zu empfehlen!
