A fantastic vacation home with a shared pool, for a unique experience between wine and forest.
Casa do Lanço is part of a 25,000m2 vineyard estate in a transition zone between the laurel forest and the farmland of São Vicente. The terraced vineyards are home to the Tinta Negra and Verdelho grape varieties, which produce the famous Madeira wine.
The property is set in a group of houses where you'll find several gardens with centenary trees, including a large oak tree over 250 years old and several species endemic to the Laurissilva such as tis, vinháticos, barbusanos and loureiros.
The house is decorated with many details, in a fusion between classic and contemporary, which follows the tradition of a family home. The house has a bedroom with two traditional-style single beds, with an access door to the outside, so you can wake up to a fantastic view of the yard and gardens of the house.
Inside the property you can enjoy the shared swimming pool, a stroll along the stream and the gardens or the yard outside, where you can have breakfast (not included), made every morning by the caretaker. During your stay you can take the opportunity to take part in the viticulture process or buy the wines available at the house.
The main house has belonged to the same family since its inception and retains its original architecture, although it has undergone improvements and modernization.
AREA
The house is located in the north of the island, more precisely in Rosário, a parish in the municipality of São Vicente. As it is in a more isolated area, there are no shops in the vicinity of the property. A ten-minute drive from the town of São Vicente, you'll find local shops, restaurants, a supermarket and a pharmacy.
In the vicinity of the house you have access to several trails and levadas, where you can take the opportunity to stroll and explore our fantastic island on foot.
If you want to find other places or activities, the city of Funchal is a 45-minute drive away.
GETTING AROUND
The best option to get to the property will be the transfer. Ask us to book one with our local partners. It is cheaper than the taxis you find at the airport.
If you rent a car, any navigation app can easily find the address.
ACCESS TO PROPERTY
You have access to all areas of the property.
INTERACTION
We are always available to help or answer questions. We do our best to reply all requests. We also have an app for guests with all the important information about the property and other useful information for your stay.
OTHER OBSERVATIONS
- According to Portuguese law, all guests are required to present a valid ID. (passport or identity card).
- Check-in hour must be scheduled in advance. If it is not scheduled within a maximum of 48 hours before, guests will be subject to the availability of our team.
- All bed linen and towels are provided. We can also put a baby cot, a high chair and a baby bath if needed, but you should request. There are a first aid kit, extinguishers and fire blanket in the property.
ATTENTION
Please note that the property does not have a laundry room. However, there is the possibility of requesting a laundry service, carried out by our cleaning team, at an extra cost and paid in cash directly to them. For more details or to arrange this service, please contact us during your stay.
RULES
We want you to feel at home. We do not ask for more than respect for neighbours and care for the property, in addition to not smoking inside the house.

We're delighted to know you appreciated the beauty of the surroundings.
We also appreciate your feedback about the comfort of the couch and the mattress. We understand how important it is to have a comfortable place to relax after a long day of adventures.
We hope to have the opportunity to provide a more comfortable stay for you in the future.

The price is significantly overpriced for what you get. The cabin is old, damp, and smelly. The room reeked of burnt wood from the fireplace (which was very difficult to light a fire in). In the bathroom, there was a foul smell coming from the drains. The furniture is old. The bed is hard and uncomfortable. On top of that, it was cold. The price is definitely disproportionate to the quality. This cabin shouldn't cost more than 80 euros per night

Sehr gute Kommunikation mit der Verwalterin, zeitweise waren es aber zwischen airbnb, eigener Website, sms und Nachrichten Messenger zu unterschiedliche Kanäle.
Insgesamt aber ein wunderbarer Ort zum erholen und eine sehr nette Verwalterin.

Vielen Dank für Ihre freundliche und detaillierte Rückmeldung! Wir freuen uns, dass Ihnen das Apartment gefallen hat und dass Sie die Sauberkeit und den Komfort schätzen konnten. Es tut uns leid, dass die angegebene Waschmaschine nicht verfügbar war – wir werden sicherstellen, dass die Beschreibung entsprechend angepasst wird, um Missverständnisse zu vermeiden. Der angebotene Wäscheservice soll jedoch eine praktische Alternative darstellen.
Ihre Anmerkung zu den verschiedenen Kommunikationskanälen nehmen wir gerne an. Wir werden daran arbeiten, dies zu vereinheitlichen und klarer zu gestalten, um den Kontakt für zukünftige Gäste noch einfacher zu machen.
Es freut uns, dass Sie insgesamt einen erholsamen Aufenthalt hatten und unsere Betreuung positiv empfunden haben. Wir würden uns freuen, Sie wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen!

As said in previous reviews it's good to know there is another apartment next door and a few other people have business around the property too but as in Madeira in general it's a very peacefull co-excistence and it's such a quiet area this did not bother us at all. Two small dogs occasionally came to say hi but they are so very friendly. The loudest habitant is the funny little rooster!
The apartment itself was super tidy and well cleaned. Kitchen is well equiped. We used the radiators to heat the place up, they work just fine! I mean it's all a bit vintage but you can tell that from the photos! The hosts are excellent and were easy to reach. The pool area is lovely but we didnt really use it that much (not that sunny!) Biggest let down is the water pressure in the shower really. The location is excellent tho and we had such a great time staying here. Sao Vicente is only 10min drive away and has a supermarket and restaurants!

Uit de douche en de warme kraan in de badkamer kwam een belabberde straal of haast geen warm water. Je kreeg per persoon een kleine en een grote handdoek in ons geval voor vier dagen (normaliter moet je er een week mee doen).
Bij navraag zijn er wel extra handdoeken bezorgd. Top service!
Sep 2024
We betreuren het echter dat de waterdruk van de douche en het warme water niet aan uw verwachtingen voldeed. Dit zijn zaken die we zeer serieus nemen en we zullen dit zeker onderzoeken om toekomstige verbeteringen te bereiken. Ook nemen we uw opmerkingen over de handdoeken ter harte en zullen we in de toekomst duidelijker communiceren over wat onze gasten kunnen verwachten.
Nogmaals bedankt voor uw waardevolle feedback. We hopen dat u ons in de toekomst opnieuw zult kiezen, zodat we u een nog betere ervaring kunnen bieden.

Die Küche lädt zum Kochen ein, falls man nicht im Restaurant essen möchte. Der Pool war sehr gepflegt, leider konnten wir ihn aufgrund des Wetters nur einmal nutzen.
Jeden zweiten Tag haben wir das Frühstücksangebot von Linda in Anspruch genommen, was die Unterkunft sehr besonders gemacht hat. Linda kommt zur gewünschten Uhrzeit vorbei und bereitet das Frühstück in der eigenen Küche zu. Dieses Frühstück ist unbedingt empfehlenswert und es war jedes Mal so viel, dass wir für unsere Wanderung noch ein Snack mitnehmen konnten.
Ansonsten war das Airbnb sehr ruhig gelegen, perfekt zum Entspannen.

As described by other guests there was an intense bad smell in the bathroom. We had to keep the toilet lid closed and window open at all times which was not ideal for the colder nights. Although the kitchen was spacious, there were no sharp knifes and only older equipment which made proper cooking difficult.
May 2024
We really appreciate your feedback regarding the bathroom and the kitchen equipment. We understand how these issues could have affected the comfort of your stay and apologize for any inconvenience caused. We will certainly look into these matters and take the necessary steps to rectify them.
Your comments are very valuable to us, as they help us to continually improve our services and facilities. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope that we can make your next stay even more enjoyable.

Man kann mit einem Mietauto gut Ausflüge auf der gesamten Insel unternehmen.
Das Bett war leider nicht so bequem. Und im Badezimmer riecht es unangenehm (wir vermuten, aus dem Abfluss). Ausserdem gab es eine unsichtbare Lüftung (im Dach?), die ebenfalls unangenehm roch, wenn sie lief.
Zudem ist es evtl. wichtig zu wissen, dass man, damit es trotz elektronischem Ofen nicht zu kalt wird, einfeuern muss. Holz liegt bereit, man muss es aber hacken und es kann teilweise feucht sein. Für fitte und im anfeuern erfahrene Menschen kein Problem, aber ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass das nicht alle können/möchten.

It's a really peaceful place, with a stunning view on the valley. We had everything we needed. We could use as much wood as we needed for the fire.
The dogs are friendly and gave us often compagny. Linda is very kind, and always available. Thank you for this lovely staying !

Unsere Unterkunft hatte den hinteren Eingang, sodass wir ungestört auf der kleinen Terrasse sitzen konnten, auch Sonnenliegen waren vorhanden.
Alles sehr sauber, gut ausgestattete Küche. Linda hatte uns sogar die Wäsche 1X gewaschen und gebügelt!
Einziges Problem: der Toilettensitz war bereits defekt und wurde leider nicht repariert während unseres 10-tägigen Aufenthalts.

The designated area for parking was full even though the hosts knew we were coming by car and indicated that reservation was not needed. We could not reach the hosts for instructions. For the cleanliness of the kitchen it would be better if it was equipped with a dishwasher.

Die Wohnung hat einen Holz Kamin und im Schlafzimmer eine kleine Heizung. Dadurch ist das Schlafzimmer warm der Rest der Wohnung aber vor allem im Winter kalt. Durch den offenen Kamin kann der Wohnbereich nach Rauch riechen.
Auf dem Anwesen sind kleine Hunde die wirklich total toll sind! Wer aber ein Problem mit Hunden hat sollte das wissen.

Sowohl die Beschreibung des Inserats als auch die Fotos sind somit nicht eindeutig der Unterkunft „Lanco II“ zuzuordnen, was sehr unglücklich ist. Unter diesen Umständen hätten wir diese Unterkunft nämlich gar nicht gebucht.
Ansonsten ist bei einem solchen Arrangement nicht unerheblich, dass man gut mit den Nachbarn auskommt. Wir sind uns zum Glück meistens nicht in die Quere gekommen, aber zwei Tage lang roch unsere Unterkunft sehr unangenehm, weil unsere Nachbarn irgendetwas Geruchsintensives gekocht haben. Dem Gesamtaufenthalt ist es zumindest nicht dienlich, wenn die Bewohner ihre Unterkunft wegen des Gestanks morgens Hals über Kopf verlassen müssen und nachts nicht schlafen können.
Ansonsten verfügt die Wohnung über alle wesentlichen Ausstattungsmerkmale. Das Wohnzimmer ist leider etwas dunkel und das Bad empfanden wir auch als sehr enttäuschend. Es war dunkel und feucht und die Klobrille war beschädigt (rutschte hin und her, wenn man sich darauf gesetzt hat).
Es gibt zwei kleine Hunde auf dem Anwesen, die die Terrasse für ihre Geschäfte nutzen. Ansonsten gibt es in der Nachbarschaft viele Hunde, sodass die ganze Zeit ein Hundegebell zu hören ist. Da wir allerdings immer unterwegs waren, hat uns das wenig gestört.
Die Lage ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt, um in alle Teile der Insel zu gelangen, erfordert allerdings einen Mietwagen. Zu Fuß ist auf die Schnelle kein Restaurant und auch kein Supermarkt zu erreichen. Dafür nach einer ca. 10-minütigen Autofahrt.

Het huisje is lekker ruim voor twee personen en zeker in de warme periodes lekker koel (wij waren er met 'winterweer', dus het was iets aan de frisse en vochtige kant).
Tijdens het verblijf was de communicatie met de organisatie helaas onvoldoende. Bij vragen werd of niet tijdig gereageerd of niet behulpzaam. Dit was jammer. Zo hadden we veel te weinig handdoeken en problemen met het warme water werden ook niet opgelost. Gedurende het hele verblijf hebben we niemand van AIA persoonlijk gezien en/of gesproken. Niet heel persoonlijk dus.
De putlucht in de badkamer (zoals in meerdere recensies genoemd) is inderdaad behoorlijk aanwezig. Het is er behoorlijk vochtig en er zijn weinig mogelijkheden om de ruimte goed te luchten.
Bij aankomst bleek veel van het servies niet goed schoongemaakt, dus moesten we gelijk veel dingen zelf afwassen. Dit voelde een beetje tegenstrijdig met het gegeven dat de koelkast heel erg naar chloor rook. Er was dus wel schoongemaakt, maar niet allemaal goed en gecontroleerd.
De bedden waren op zich prima. Op de slaapkamer is het wel oppassen met een stopcontact (rechts naast het bed). Dit hing helemaal los en was open. Dus niet heel veilig (zeker niet met jonge kinderen).
Al met al hebben we wel genoten van een week in dit huisje. Vooral de natuur, privacy en rust hebben we heel erg gewaardeerd.

You can find all equipment you need for cooking in the kitchen. The house itself was quite cold, but we were there off season in early March. André was so nice to bring us some lighters to make fire :)
He welcomed us in the house and gave us lots of tips in the area.
Overall a nice place but a few things should be improved/ renovated to match the price tag.
5 • Jan 2022
The property has good facilities, was clean upon arrival and we were impressed by the working fireplace (log blocks and kindling avaliable) and spacious and cosy living room. comfortable beds. The bathroom was quite damp and humid but it was a little more than a mild inconvenience. The host responded quickly to messages. It was very peaceful, in the mornings you hear running water from a nearby stream and you can wander round the vineyard on the property. We would love to come and stay again!

The only issue was with locks, you had to try a few times before you could open the door.
But I definitely recommend this place and host!

Our rating is based on suitably for time of year. Our stay was in February and we felt this property was not wonderful in winter. I can imagine it would be a cool and quiet spot in the summer. It is north facing in a narrow side valley and gets very little sun and is extremely damp outside. Judging by the moss everywhere and the filthy state of the outdoor furniture it had not been occupied for some time. Heating is an open fire, a woodstove and a radiator. We set the open fire (first time filling the room with smoke as the chimney was not drawing) but couldn't be bothered to keep the wood stove going as well. The radiator took some chill off and we used a fan heater (which we always carry with us in winter) in the bathroom and bedroom. The kitchen was so cold butter left out to soften was rock hard. There are a couple of amusing dogs but one of them used our patio as a toilet. There are two adjoining apartments Casas 1 and 2. We were in Casa 2, which is overlooked by the patio and outside dining area of Casa 1 at the front of the apartment. When we sat out for lunch we had to go round the gloomy side of our Casa with no view for privacy. Booking.com shows the patio of Casa 1 in the description for Casa 2. We thought we had booked Casa 1 as a result. Casa 1 is much better appointed. Entering and leaving the property by car is frightening because the gate is on a double blind corner and the gate itself is right on the road - it would have been so easy to have the gate further back on the drive for safety. Despite receiving a message that the TTM rep would meet us at the property at a set time, he wasn't there and took 30 minutes to arrive with the keys. The TTM bureaucracy is a pain - instead of simply relying on Booking.com data they have their own systems that are totally unnecessary and you are bombarded with urgent messages by email and text to update their system.

The small apartment is part of a renovated house separated in two rented apartments. The restoration is quite authentic but it’s clear the only purpose of the house is to be rented out. This results in a nice decorative renovation, we liked the stoned walls and fireplace, but not always that practical.
We confirm previous reviews about noise from neighbours (our neighbours where actually quiet but we felt really guilty do for our crying baby!, sorry!) and badly ventilated / smelly bathroom.
The listing indicated baby amenities which where not there when we arrived. Turned out we had to let the host now before hand we needed them. This was not clear on the listing. Bringing them afterward the host charged us extra money we felt obliged to pay. After checking the airbnb guidelines we discovered this is not allowed and listed amenities should be present. The host was not understandable our flexible and only after intervention from Airbnb we were put in our right and got our money back. We didn't got half of the baby amenities though.
We would not recommend renting with Travel to Madeira, a very very commercial party using every occasion to make money or sell you tours. We must have received 5 ‘confirmation’ emails, full of promotions and extra’s!
For the price of this apartment we stayed in way better, and bigger places in Madeira.
Also note the ‘second’ bedroom is not nearly attached to the main house. It’s somewhere hundred meters away in another building. So for a couple the stay is ok, but if you want children to sleep in the second bedroom so far away, this is not an option.

We're very sorry that you feel this way. All this miscommunication was avoidable if only you would have answered our emails in the first place.
A long time before you arrived, we asked you if you would need the baby items but you chose to not respond, so we thought you didn't want it. After that, you only requested the crib after we left check-in so we had to pay to bring it there. After that you then complained that you needed also the baby chair and tub. So we had to go there again... Even so, you complained!
As for the extra room not being attached to the main house, this is very clear in the pictures and also the text. But it's even worse because we did tell you that on the messages before you even came to Madeira and you did respond!
The emails that you got are automated and if you did respond to the first one with the details that we asked, you wouldn't get any more emails.
As for the price, I'm sorry that there are other places that are way too cheap. This is already a very affordable place! Maybe next time we will pay you to stay with us...
We checked you airbnb and it's three times more expensive than the house you stayed! I guess what it's only expensive when you are the one paying...
Have a wonderful new year!

Check-in and talking to people from 'Travel To Madeira' has been easy and pleasant.
We appreciated the gift basket at our arrival too.
The only downside is maybe that the ventilation of the bathroom is not optimal.

Superbes terrasse et jardin donnant sur la vallée, au milieu des vignes. Idéal pour se ressourcer près de la nature !
