La Maison ZiaZen

Sometimes words cannot describe an experience but let me try it anyway. Straight away i felt at home in this little mountain paradise and the family welcomed me with open arms. The amazing views, the energy of this place, the yummy food and the way i was received make this a place one to recommend to everyone. I feel gratitude in my heart and my soul for my stay here. Thank you so much!

I, having a Ph.D. in soil science and agriculture, offered to help on this farm over their volunteering program. Owners never replied to any emails. After a call, the owner admits he "doesn't reply to English emails", he only works with people who speak French (even though the website has an extra "we speak English" bottom). Too bad they are not more open at this place!

Such a peaceful retreat buried in the Madeira countryside. The family takes you in as one of their own and Cilene is a fabulous cook. The ingredients come straight from their garden! The views of the ocean, mountains, and spectacular Madeiran foliage are out of this world. There’s also an on-site massage and yoga studio with reasonable prices. This has been a unique and special experience for me to stay here and I’d highly recommend this place!

Amazing
