2. Outstanding Breakfast Experience: The homemade breakfast is repeatedly described as one of the best guests have had—featuring fresh juices, local ingredients, vegan/gluten-free options, and a generous variety.
3. Free Transfers & Extra Services: Complimentary pickups and drop-offs from the ferry or airport, luggage storage after checkout, and even access to showers before departure are frequently highlighted as thoughtful touches.
4. Comfortable, Clean, and Tastefully Decorated Rooms: Reviewers mention the rooms are spotless, cozy, and well-furnished, with attention to detail in design and comfort.
5. Great Location for Exploring Porto Santo: The guesthouse is close to the center and beach (around a 10–15 minute walk), with optional quad/ATV rentals offered onsite for easy island exploration.

👎 Negative feedback from guests

1. Lack of Privacy / Feeling Like a Guest in Someone’s Home: Some guests felt it was more like staying in a family home than a professional guesthouse, which wasn’t clearly communicated in the listing and impacted their comfort.
2. Noise from Children and Shared Spaces: A few reviewers mentioned that the hosts' children were noisy during the day, especially when guests were trying to rest, as the rooms are close to family living areas.
3. Steep Walk to the Property: The guesthouse is located on a steep hill, which made access difficult for some guests, especially those with mobility issues or after a tiring day.
4. Limited In-Room Amenities: Guests pointed out the absence of basic room features like trash bins, mirrors, hooks for towels, or shelves in the bathroom—particularly inconvenient in rooms with shared bathrooms.
5. No Access to Kitchen / Unexpected Extra Charges: Some reviews mentioned they couldn’t use the kitchen or even store food, and were surprised by additional charges (e.g. for coffee/tea), which weren’t clearly communicated upfront.
