The rooms were a nice size and the beds were comfortable. There was a lift to save you from having to take bags on the stairs. The hotel was quiet enough and the roar of the waves loud as it was directly across the from the ocean which I enjoyed .The staff were friendly and thoughtful. The restaurant was good serving breakfast and then in the evening they had dinner. The hot tub was large but only really hot two of the four nights. The hotel was very clean and had many spots to sit and relax outside of the room. There was also a bar up a bunch of stairs that had a Birds Eye view.
Offering a barbecue and terrace, Gardens Guest House is set in São Vicente, 2625 feet from Volcanic caves of São Vicente. You will find a coffee machine in the hostel.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The gardens are beautifully planted and the views are stunning. The tipi and communal areas were very clean and comfortable, offering everything we needed to prepare packed lunches for our hikes.
Cristina was a very warm host and her food recommendations are definitely worth trying out!
Thank you!

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.

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.
We visited a place in January 2022. The location is super cool (PR16 Levada Fajã do Rodrigues is pretty close). There is such a wonderful view, beautiful mountains, and a very nice garden!
The host is really helpful. For the first 2 nights, we had an uncomfortable mattress(too soft for us), but Cristina replaced it! It was super cool of her, we appreciated it very much! São Vicente is an amazing place and you can easily go to Seixal, Porto Moniz, Fanal Pond… with the car (btw the car is a must-have from my perspective).
Beautiful accommodation, newly renovated, beautiful garden with pool, fantastic location overlooking the green hills of Sao Vicente and the ocean. Everything perfectly clean, room comfortable. There is a shared kitchenette with a microwave, refrigerator and a seating area, so it's nice if you want to prepare a snack for a trip. Different varieties of wine are grown in the garden, which can be tasted for free. Parking place in the shade of grape trees. Staff very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this accommodation.
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.
We really enjoyed the beautiful, rural location of this hotel, steeps hills and all! It was peaceful and charming overall, and the room was very relaxing with everything done perfectly. The staff were kind and personable, the pool was lovely and I had it all to myself when I went swimming. The bed was very comfortable with good pillow options. The local herb garden was another perfect touch to a charming overall experience.
Setting with views of the mountains around. Comfortable well equipped house. Good outdoor space for breakfast/coffee/wine/reading well equipped with outdoor furniture.
Friendly welcome by the owner who was very helpful.
The nearby small town of Sao Vicente is pleasant and has a reasonably good small supermarket.
Location good for all the north coast of Madeira which is much less crowded than places nearer Funchal.
The property is beautiful, feels like staying in a garden. Nice views from the pool and the terrace. It is located in the hills above Sao Vicente, 5 min drive from a supermarket, 30 mins drive to funchal, Kid friendly, we were provided with a child chair and a bed. very helpful host, they did laundry for us as there was no washing machine on property. Also communicated fast and were ready to help with anything.
This is an absolutely stunning property in the most amazing location. The owner really has thought of everything to make a stay here perfect. We really appreciated the beach towels, toiletries, slippers & bath robes as extra touches.
Close to great places to eat and to the centre of Sao Vicente with beautiful ocean views.
Incredibly surreal hotel in the Sao Vicente Valley. Beautiful views of mountains everywhere and pristine hotel grounds with a pool warm enough for the cloudy/cooler evening and cool enough for the sunny/warm days. I also enjoyed the sauna and pool bar! :)
Very great host, perfect location as a base to explore the north coast and interior of the island ( by car) and very clean and spacious accommodation with lovely views of the valley Sao Vicente. Also lovely big accommodation in common areas.
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.
Beautiful location, just above the village of Sao Vincente. Your own private terrace with a view. Salt water pool and friendly hosts. Bonus: the home made Madeira wine made by Lionel.
breakfast was very nice, the staff amazing, the views even better, we even found a little trail to hike up to the mini church on top of the mountain behind the hotel, great stay
Very helpful and friendly staff and clean room with a comfortable bed. Also very good location as it's in Sao Vicente and was easy to get from here to all parts of the island.
