This was the best place in the whole of Madeira. And probably the best hotel ever. The place is exceptional, cosy, homey, clean, well designed, not crowded with guests. The staff was genuinely friendly and helpful. The room was perfect, great shower, great details and extras. Make you feel really welcomed. We swam in the pool. Good temperature for swimming, perfect area to chill,read, enjoy the view. We booked sports massage and it was really good and worth the money. They also gave us bathrobes.The breakfast was exceptional, smoothies, freshly squeezed juice, garden veggies etc. Outside area is also very comfy for chilling. You need to have a car for this place. Some good restaurants around.
Casas do Lanço by An Island Apart is set in São Vicente and features a pool with a view and garden views. There is a private entrance at the holiday home for the convenience of those who stay.

Beautiful location surrounded by towering mountains. The property itself has a well-kept garden. We were welcomed by Linda who was very friendly and showed us around. Our apartment was quite spacious and as the evenings were a bit chilly we could use the fireplace in the living room.
Offering a garden and garden view, The Perfect Cottage is situated in São Vicente, 25 km from Girao Cape and 34 km from Marina do Funchal.

We stayed at Joana's place for the third time and we are always delighted. Joana willingly helped us solve a small problem with the car rental company, as always, she is very helpful. Joana's place is a pleasure to live in. We always like to come back.

Helena is very kind helpful and welcoming and made our stay very comfortable. The area is beautiful, the house is in the perfect location to explore the north part/north west, and spend time in the capital city.
House has huge en-suite rooms and a great size well-equipped kitchen, living room, and terrace with outdoor furniture.
We had dinner every day in Sao Vicente (5 min by car) Restaurante Calamar. Excellent food, and we were happy with everything we tried.
I am sure will go and stay here next time when we'll visit the island.

Sao Vicente is a great base for exploring the north of the island without really having a huge amount going for it per se (nothing negative). But Seixal is only a few km away and is my favourite village on the island! Sao Vicente does have a few ok restaurants by the sea but I had better meal experiences elsewhere during my trip. The local caves are closed for the next year or so.

The village is absolutely beautiful.
The village is absolutely beautiful. Ideal for walking around. The views are just stunning, especially if you walk on top of the hill where the small chapel is. It's just difficult to get there if you want to use public transport. Buses there are a nightmare. We were lucky enough that our previous host took us there from Funchal. Otherwise we would struggle as nobody whom we asked in Funchal knew where the bus stop was for bus going to Sao Vicente.

Sao Vicente is a small town on the north side of Madeira, rather less well known than most of the south side of the island. It has an interesting old church, a garden of indigenous trees (for plant enthusiasts), volcanic caves and interpretation centre (for geology enthusiasts) and several good restaurants (for foodies!).
From Sao Vicente you can travel along the north coast; westwards to Seixal and Porto Moniz, eastwards to Boaventura, Sao Jorge or Santana. Drive inland to Encumeada, the starting point for several superb hikes, or drive up to the Paul da Serra moorlands.
The roads around here are in good condition and easy to drive, there's not much traffic and the local drivers are quite considerate.
I've visited this area at various times of the year, for hiking and plant spotting, and there's always something new.
Food and drink? No problems! There is everything from simple roadside bars where you can share your coffee break with the locals to top quality restaurants serving authentic Madeiran dishes.

We saw very little of Sao Vicente on our short trip, since we were mainly occupied either seeing the sights in Funchal or else visiting along the coast to the East and West, rather than actually digging deeper locally. No time for a meal out, even though the hotel dining room was no good in the evenings. We've done a lot of caves before, so did not want to committ to that. So all we did was drive through it about six times without stopping to visit! Next time maybe, as it looks a good, if small, place to see more of.
The garden is stunningly beautiful and peaceful and the pool is a good size and looks inviting.
The property is surrounded by mountains and is alive with bird song. There is a very good restaurant within easy walking distance. Sao Vicente ,a short drive away, is a is a pleasant place to walk around and has good restaurants and shops.
Rooms were of a good size and beds were comfortable with sufficient blankets and the hot water bottle was a thoughtful touch. We enjoyed a levada walk nearby and visiting the north coast.
The views from the garden are breathtaking and the garden itself is beautiful as well - you'll see big monsteras, banana and avocado trees. The terrace is really nice - again, the views! - the bed was comfortable, and the shower in the bathroom is spacious. São Vicente's church and a nice snack bar are just under 10m walking distance from the accommodation, and the seaside promenade with restaurants and bars just a few minutes more - great location overall.
The little house is perfect for a stay in Sao Vicente. Is has everything you need for a comfortable stay. We highly appreciated that it had a washing machine. We were greeted with a bottle of Madeira wine and home made cookies, very thoughtful. Janine who administrates the property, is a wonderful person, very attentive and communicative. She gave us lots of info on where to eat, drink, trekking spots and so much more.
Very nice room with modern equipment.
Free sauna, fitness and heated pool.
Very tasteful, fresh breakfast with a lot of options.
Amazing views from the room and surrounding area.
The hotel is located in a peaceful location, so you can really relax you mind and body after a whole day of hiking and exploring.
Also, there is enough parking space for all the guests.
The staff is very kind and helpfull.
The location was outstanding with the ocean right outside the window and next door were plenty of bakeries for breakfast, restaurants for lunch and dinner, bars for relaxing and a supermarket too for everything else. It was also easy to get everywhere in north and western Madeira from Sao Vicente. The apartment was spacious, pleasant, and had all the essentials.
I can’t imagine a more perfect place in São Vicente. For the price of a hotel room you can be on a comfortable apartment in the center of the village. There are restaurants and a market in easy walking distance. Filipe is a wonderful and helpful host. Great views from my balcony.
Nice, calm place in Ponta Delgada with beautiful sunset views. Bus station is just a few footsteps away to go to Sao Vicente (Funchal, Porto Moniz) or Arco de Sao Jorge (Santana, ...). Or just start (or end) your hiking directly at the house.
Location was perfect, communication with the house owner was pleasant, nice surrounding (supermarket, nature and gas station), view to the village. Nice fully equipped kitchen (permanently available) and the hall with the fire place.
The gorgeous view and the kindness and generosity of the host. we were warmly welcomed with wine, a bowl of fruit, fresh eggs, and more. Sao Vicente is a beautiful location with so much natural beauty. great hikes nearby!
The guest house is located in the beautiful village of Sao Vincente. The view from the balcony was spectacular, birds singing from the early morning, staff extremely helpful, accommodating and warm. Highly recommended.
Amazing location on the coast of Sao Vicente. Everything you could need and more. Well equipped kitchen, homely communal areas, desks in rooms, and really friendly hosts who are there if you need them.
Nice little place. I couldn't decide if it was a small hotel or a big BnB but it worked. The view was very nice. We could see all the stars at night from our balcony. Breakfast was pretty good.
Very clean and nice apartment in perfect location just in the middle of beautiful Sao Vicente. The owner is very nice and quick to respond if you need any help. We even got a little present.
Great house to stay in Sao Vicente. Everything that we needed was there - ready to use. The house was close to the ocean, hiking trails and to the town centre as well. Perfect area.
Family run hotel where everything is perfect. Very kind owner, perfect breakfast, scenic views from rooms, swimming pool, beautiful nature all around and very convenient location.
Lovely hotel, short walk to the village, plenty of parking opposite hotel.
Pool area is well kept, plenty of sun beds and the view is amazing.
