Pleasant house inserted in a tropical environment between the sea and banana lands.
Lugar de Baixo is known for its connection to the sea and the farming of banana trees. These two realities offer a fantastic contrast between the ocean blue colour and the green of the land ploughed by the people this beautiful village.
The house is located in a small residential area, integrated into a farming area, which gives it an exotic, calm and pleasant environment.
Recently refurbished, the house has a nice decoration and has a bedroom on the upper floor, with a double bed and private bathroom. The living room offers all the comfort and access to the outside area, where you can enjoy good moments at mealtimes, rest and leisure. The barbecue is perfect for making your favourite grills and gathering the family for a fantastic banquet.
The property has a maximum capacity of four people (bedroom with double bed and sofa bed for two in the living room).
THE NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW
The house is located in the southwest area of the island, on the site of Lugar de Baixo, municipality of Ponta do Sol. Situated by the sea, the Lugar de Baixo area is known for the cultivation of bananas and for being one of the places with the most sun exposure across the island. This area has all the conditions for a calm summer vacation, with access to the beach, which is very close to the property.
In the surroundings you can find several restaurants with typical food, where meat, fish and seafood dishes are available on the menu.
Ponta do Sol and Ribeira Brava are a 2-minute drive and Calheta is a 13-minute drive. In Ponta do Sol, Ribeira Brava and Calheta you will find more restaurants, supermarkets and local shops. In Calheta you can dive on the sandy beach and the contemporary art museum “Casa das Mudas”. At Ponta do Sol there are also several restaurants and a beach.
Funchal is a 25-minute drive and the airport is 35 minutes.

Die Küchenausstattung ist eher einfach. Sehr positiv überrascht hat uns der sofortige Kontakt und die direkte Hilfe bei Problemen. In unseren rund 2,5 Wochen Aufenthalt wurde zweimal Wäsche gewechselt und das Haus gereinigt. Das Erdgeschoss ist ohne Beleuchtung recht dunkel, im Obergeschoss sind die Fensterscheiben verdunkelt. Mehr Helligkeit und Ausblick wäre schön. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

A proximité du musée de la banane, des grands axes routiers, de randonnée, de restaurants, des plages ainsi que d'une supérette et grande surface a moins de dix minutes en voiture.
Quartier calme, les places de parking ce trouve facilement dans la grande rue.
Les hôtes répondent rapidement aux messages.
Je recommande ce logement, en période chaude les ventilateurs nous ont bien servi, et au vu des commentaires nous avions pris un spray a moustiques avec nous qui nous a bien servi.
Gros plus pour la terrasse de la chambre, avec la vue de la bananerai et de la cascade.
En résumé on ne peut que recommander ce superbe logement! Merci a vous pour cette semaine, on sait où loger si on revient sur l'île.
Oct 2024
Nous sommes également heureux que la terrasse et la vue aient été des points forts pour vous. Ce serait un grand plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau lors de votre prochain séjour sur l'île. Merci encore pour votre recommandation, à très bientôt !
Cordialement

Die Küche war extrem gut ausgestattet alles was man braucht war da. Die Dachterrasse ist das absolute Hammer, dort kann man sehr schön den Tag ausklingen lassen und hört im Hintergrund den Wasserfall.
Einen kleinen Stand hat man auch 5 min zu Fuß entfernt. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt

Erst hat uns das Navi woanders hingelotst, aber bei einem eigenen Blick auf die Karte war die Unterkunft doch gut zu finden. Wer Angst vor bellenden Hunden hat, könnte sich etwas unwohl fühlen, da viele der Nachbarhäuser Hunde haben.

We zijn heel tevreden over het huis. Goed bed, veel kastruimte, goede keuken, leuke inrichting. Alles zeer compleet. Er is geen airco, maar wel 2 ventilatoren die het goed doen. Het ligt heerlijk centraal om het eiland te verkennen.
Tip: het bananenmuseum BAM ligt om de hoek. Leuk om van alles te leren over de groei van de banaan. Nog een aanrader: de zonsopkomst op de Pico do Areeiro. Geweldig! En verder de levadawandelingen. Eigenlijk was het hele eiland leuk. Leuk om met de auto de bergen in te gaan. Het landschap is zo afwisselend!
Kortom: wij hebben genoten!

Leider hatte die Unterkunft für uns jedoch ein großes Manko: der Geruch!
Vor allem das Kopfteil vom Bett (aus Stoff) und die Matratze hatten einen sehr unangenehm penetranten mordrigen und feuchten Geruch. Auch die Küche( Küchenzeile und vor allem beim Öffnen der Schränke) kommt einem ein unangenehmer Geruch entgegen. Das hat uns leider das Kochen in der großen Küche vermiest.

If you want a base to sleep, the house has all you need.
Would not describe as quiet or calm. You need earplugs to block the chorus of dogs who bark, evening, night & early morning.
You need GPS grid numbers to find small lane up to house. You cannot see it from the closest road. Cannot park outside the house. Need nerves of steel parking on 1 in 3 slope if wanting to park closer to house. Had “No stop” note on car.
The images are cleverly taken, all lights on, windows & doors open. You can see the sea, a small triangle from upstairs shower room. ‘Close beach’ is accessible not to swim, ok if surfing. Windows downstairs tinted & look onto banana plantation, initially novel. Windows & door upstairs have permanent obscuring shades. House appears light but is actually dark. Not sure about ‘all the comfort’? Veranda has great view but only direct sun for few hours.
Need insect repellant for the mosquitos.
Not a home, not a place to sit and relax in. A place to sleep, maybe eat.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your detailed feedback. I am truly sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations.
I'm glad to know that you found the property to be very clean and appreciated our prompt and helpful communication. Our staff will be delighted to hear your kind words, as they strive to provide excellent service to every guest.
I understand your concerns regarding the access to the property, parking, and the noise from dogs. This point is very hard to improve because we can't control the dogs of the neighbourhood.

Your feedback is invaluable to us as it helps us improve and provide a better experience to our future guests. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide a more satisfactory experience.

The terrace looked over the banana trees, which was stunning to look out of over the morning.
There’s lots of space too, highly recommend!

Leider ist dadurch und das die großen Fenster alle nach Norden zeigen, sehr dunkel, mit sehr wenig Tageslicht.
Parken vor der Tür ist auch schwierig, geht aber irgendwie schon.
Darfür ist die Küche sehr schön eingerichtet und es macht Spaß dort zu kochen!!!

Une terrasse au premier étage et un extérieur au rdc très agréable pour manger dehors à côté des bananiers, en profitant pourquoi pas du barbecue!
Maison très propre, avec ménage intermédiaire une fois par semaine avec literie et serviettes changées, et, petite attention qui fait plaisir, un petit bouquet de fleurs fraîches. Tout ceci avec une très bonne communication car vous êtes prévenus par mail et sms.
Très bon équipement globalement, juste pour chipoter il manque des petites cuillères, une essoreuse à salade, et un étendoir amovible pour le linge, pour les jours de pluie (celui installé sur la terrasse du 1er étage n' est pas protégé de la pluie).
Bon emplacement pour visiter toute l' île et profiter des randonnées, de la mer...
En résumé excellent séjour pour un couple. Attention cependant vous êtes dans une zone tranquille et l' accès aux commerces nécessite une voiture.
La chaleur notamment dans la chambre au premier étage malgré le ventilateur. Une climatisation de la maison serait un must.
Les moustiques nombreux...mais ce n' est pas la faute du logement!

Wszystko się podobało poza lekka wilgocią w domku, przy dobrej pogodzie wszystko schło ale przydałaby się klimatyzacja do utrzymania temperatury. Nie ma parkingu przy budynku ale taki urok, można zaparkować przy ulicy bądź małym placyku max 100 metrów od domku.

House is much darker than shown of the photos - many windows are covered with some grey foil and you have to use lamps even during the day. Sofa downstairs used as bed makes terrible sound when you try to change the sleeping position and wakes you up. Parking is "public" and few minutes walking distance - but if you don't have heavy luggage this is not a problem. Also the house doesn't have separate rooms - it is open space.

- Check in und out war unkompliziert, Infos wurden zur Verfügung gestellt
- Die Unterkunft ist extrem dunkel! Auch wenn alle Jalousien offen sind und die Sonne scheint - kein Vergleich mit den publizierten Fotos!
- Der Standort ist nicht gut, in Ponta do Sol gibt es keine wirklich guten Restaurants, kein Shop und auch sonst nichts. Essensdelivery Apps funktioniert keine da kein Liefergebiet. Man ist zwingend auf ein Auto angewiesen.
- Parking an der Strasse, eng und sehr steil
- Badezimmer hat extrem gerochen, der Duschvorhang muss dringend gewechselt werden oder mal ordentlich gereinigt werden

Apart of this, we wouldnt stay again in Ponta do Sol: no infrastructure, no choice of (good) restaurants, no shop and by the way no delivery app is working as described by you (Nor Glovo, nor Uber Eats nor BringEat - all apps says that Ponta do Sol is not a delivery area!)

L'arrivée tardive a été possible sans problème
La réactivité des hôtes pour apporter un tire bouchon manquant
Manque des petites cuillères et une machine Nespresso.
Un petit déjeuner pour le lendemain aurait été apprécié (arrivé à minuit)

Das Bett ist sehr bequem.
Das WLAN ist unten sehr gut, oben im Schlafzimmer manchmal etwas schwach.
Der einzige Nachteil sind die vielen Hunde in der Nachbarschaft, aber das Problem hat man vermutlich in den meisten Orten in Portugal. Mit geschlossenen Fenstern hat man das Bellen aber kaum noch gehört. Das Auto kann man nicht am Haus parken sondern an der Hauptstraße (5Min Fußweg). Von dort muss man an den vielen Hunden vorbei, die meisten bellen/knurren nur, aber einer hat auch nach uns geschnappt (wir haben uns dann zur Verteidigung mit Wanderstöcken “bewaffnet“).
Ansonsten ist die Lage eine super Ausgangslage für viele Ausflüge in alle Richtungen der Insel.
Zu einer Levada Wanderung sind wir direkt vom Haus aus losgewandert (Levada nova).
Wir können die Unterkunft auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen :)

As we stayed over Christmas, and the team prepared an event for us at the house and joined us with homemade hallacas and liquor which was a really great surprise and something we did not expect from a rental agency (as they often tend to be more anonymous or "not care"). Andre, the agent who welcomed us and was keeping in touch (always available on WhatsApp) was very kind and helpful. So our experience with the house and the team (who also brought us flowers and fresh fruits after the weekly cleaning) was very positive and we would definitely come back.
Internet connection was weak on the upper floor and the terrace. The neighbors´ dogs were sometimes loudly barking.

The area is super quiet and beautifully situated. You can't hear anything except the sounds of the crickets. ;-) especially in night time!
And you're really in the middle of the banana plantation. The view from the balcony of the mountains and the plantation is a dream.
It's just as beautiful in real life as it is in the pictures. Clean, modern, new!
The check-in with Andre also worked out wonderfully. He picked us up and showed us everything. He was always available and if something happened he was in touch immediately. He was constantly trying to make sure that everything fits and that we are fine. That was really great!
Be sure to enter the coordinates in the navigation system, not the address you see in the profil, otherwise Google Maps will guide you to the wrong location :-) Andre had to wait a long time for us.
You definitely need a rental car, as the accommodation is not directly in the action and the island has so much to discover. We really loved hiking there.. Never seen such a beautiful nature like this!!
We can really recommend the property to everyone!

Ask them where to park your car. We did not in the beginning and unfortunately, the neighbor manipulated our tires twice because he doesn't like people to park anywhere near his house...

It is much quieter than in Funchal and so it is a nice escape but you will likely need a car to explore the island and go to restaurants in the evening. One recommendation would be to ensure that you rent a car well in advance as the cars on the island can get booked up and so the prices go up too! Whilst we did use public transport, the buses from Oscar's House to Funchal are relatively infrequent (3 times a day) and take an hour or so and so it is much easier with a car or if not order a taxi using either the Bolt app or the Taxiin app if you plan to have a drink too. Exploring the island much easier with a car and so much more freedom in your day if you have one, just don't be surprised if you need to use 1st gear to get up the steep hills!
We very much enjoyed eating at Zino's palace which is a 2 minute walk from the house (we went 3 times). The staff there are all friendly, the views are great and the food was really tasty - it was often quiet too and you can just walk home afterwards so definitely give it a go.
Other things to do: Pico de areiro to Pico ruivo for sunrise walk, a dolphin tour (VIP dolphins), the wine tour (Viator), buggy adventure (trail4fun), piscinas naturais (sunnier than Porto Moniz) and loads of other walks, viewpoints and adventures but you'll have a great time either way and ddefinitelyrecommend An Island Apart and Oscar's House

The place was clean, well stocked in terms of basic needs (pepper, salt, vinegar, oil, coffee, toilet paper, washing powder and dishwasher tabs)
When you arrive and have the impression not to find the house, take directly next to the house 4 the little alley and the house is located a bit further at number 4, confusing when you arrive but you get to a nice place once you open the gate.
A little further up on the main road, the one before you turn left to reach the house, is a free parking further uphill on your right. When you get home after your walks it is downward to the house, in the morning it prepares your legs for your walks!
Having two toilets is nice as it avoids a fight when coming home after the windy roads of Madeira.

Es war alles perfekt. Erwähnenswert ist vielleicht dass das Haus keinen eigenen Parkplatz, eine Parkmöglichkeit ist ca 2 Minuten entfernt. Uns hat es nicht gestört, für den ein oder anderen mag es wichtig sein.

We stayed in Oscar's place for 5 nights after moving from Funchal.
It's not the easiest to find as the name of the street didn't exactly match the address but we called the managers and they were very helpful.
The house is situated in a quiet area called Lugar de Baixo which has a few restaurants by a rocky beach and a steep ascent to Ponta do Sol where you get some amazing views and it's only a half hour walk to an incredible levada walk.
The area is surrounded on all sides by banana trees and there are even some on the house's private garden.
The house has two outside areas one with dining facilities and a barbecue area and another with insane, unobstructed views of the banana farms and the cliff face which has a couple of little waterfalls coming down it. It's really something special.
The kitchen is brand new, very well stocked (everything you could hope for except cheese grater) and the house itself is very stylish with a large en suite bedroom with a really comfy bed.
If you're looking for really special tranquil place then look no further.
NOTE: You'll struggle to get around here without your own car.

All in all It’s pretty quite, it’s a bit hidden, but it’s perfect if you want a relaxed home. It’s in the middle of banana trees and has an outstanding view from the upper terrace. We loved the breakfast up there in the mornings.
The kitchen is quite good equipped and the bathrooms were really clean!
The location is perfect, it’s 30-40 minutes by car, to every end of the island and there are shopping opportunities within a 3 min car ride.
Oh and try the restaurants down by the ocean, it’s worth it!
If we come back, we would definitely book this one again!!

Insgesamt war die Kommunikation mit Travel To Madeira sehr gut, wir hatten immer das Gefühl, einen Ansprechpartner zu haben.
Die Unterkunft selbst ist wirklich (!) schwer zu finden, aber wir haben uns zum Check-in mit einem Mitarbeiter von Travel to Madeira an der Hauptstraße getroffen, der uns dann hingeführt hat.
Ein Mietwagen ist auf jeden Fall sinnvoll. Wir konnten unser Auto fast die gesamte Zeit auf einem Parkplatz einer Nachbarin parken. Falls dies mal nicht möglich ist, gibt es immer freie und kostenlose Parkplätze unten an der Hauptstraße.
Die Unterkunft liegt nicht direkt in Ponta do Sol, sondern in Lugar de Baixo. Dort gibt es in Laufnähe (5 Minuten) drei Restaurants und einen Steinstrand. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gibt es entweder in Ponta do Sol direkt am Kreisverkehr bei der Tankstelle (Amanhecer: kleiner aber gut ausgestatteter Laden) oder in Ribeira Brava (Continente). Wir wären gerne auch mal nach Ponta do Sol zu Fuß gelaufen, aber einen guten Weg gibt es wahrscheinlich nicht. Entweder muss man durch den Tunnel oder über den Berg (dauert ziemlich lang!!).
Mit dem Auto kommt man wirklich recht schnell überall hin. Aber wir haben die Wanderungen an der Levada Nova und Levada do Moinho (Rother Wanderführer Madeira Route 11 und 12) sogar vom Ferienhaus aus gemacht. Dabei muss man zwar erst mal recht steil den Berg hoch laufen, aber das war trotzdem gut möglich.
Wir würden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen! :-)
