10 days of hiking
We spent 10 nights in this wonderfully adapted old school house. The atmosphere is calm and inviting. We were happily greeted by Irena our host and received a kind and wonderful welcome! The house was spotless and is well appointed. Everything you could need is available and Irena will work to make your stay enjoyable if you do find you need anything. Ceilings are low and the bed is short if your a tall person like me, but certainly doesn’t hold back the property or experience!

A lovely place to relax and explore from
I loved my stay at Casa Caramelo. Irina was such a warm and welcoming host, with lots of great tips for exploring Madeira. The flat was perfect, with everything I needed for my stay. It was lovely to have access to the courtyard area, which had plenty of sun and shade if needed and it great fun to play with Enola, Irina's beautiful German Shepherd dog. I would very much like to come and stay again oned day, thank you Irina!

Charming house
Lovely and charming house located in an strategic location of Madeira, the house is located near Calheta beach which is the best in the island, also it’s located to short car ride to the meeting points of the nicest hiking walks such 25 Fontes, Risco waterfall, Lagoa Do Vento and Levada Dos Cedros. The property is also located at 35 mins car ride of the natural swimming pools in Porto Moniz. We really enjoyed the accessibility to those great locations. The house is cozy and adequately furnished. We shared the patio / garden with the owner and her dog Enola who were great hosts, Enola is a great and well behaved dog. Irina assisted us with our requests and gave us great tourist advice on places to go and avoid, she is a very kind and easy to get along lady. Overall I recommend the place for future guests.

Kleine aber feine Wohnung mit allem, was man braucht
Wir hatten einen super Aufenthalt. Die kleine Wohnung hatte alle Ausstattungen, die nötig sind. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Irina wohnt in der Wohnung darüber und hat uns jederzeit weitergeholfen mit ganz vielen Tipps und Empfehlungen. Sie hat zwei super süße Hunde, die wir gerne geknuddelnt haben. Irina ist eine super Gastgeberin! Wir können die Wohnung nur weiter empfehlen. Es ist nicht weit bis Calheta, aber ein Auto ist nötig. Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit auf Madeira und würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

In unseren 2 Wochen Aufenthalt war Irina immer freundlich, zuvorkommend und stets darauf bedacht, dass es uns an nichts fehlt! Das Bett könnte für den ein oder anderen Gast vielleicht etwa zu hart sein. Ansonsten ist die Wohnung mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht. Wir würden wieder bei Irina buchen.

Our stay
It was really great! Irina is very kind. She knows a lot about Madeira en what to do. Enola (her German shepherd) is also a lovely girl. We had an amazing stay. The house was clean and cozy. The location is not ideal if you don’t hire a car. But also not a problem if you have a rental car. Then it is very do-able We have no bad things to say about our stay!
