I had a great time at Homeoffice Madeira. The place looks exactly like it does in the pictures, which was a big relief. I was a bit worried about privacy, especially for important client meetings, but that wasn’t an issue at all. Everything went smoothly, and the atmosphere was just right. Figo, the host, is awesome. He goes above and beyond for his guests, making sure you feel comfortable from the moment you arrive. It was impressive to see how many people were return visitors – that really says a lot about the place! I’m already planning my next stay because two weeks just wasn’t enough. If you’re looking for a laid-back but productive work environment, this is the spot! :-)
The best! If you are a digital nomad then the Home Office Madeira, in my opinion, ranks as the #1 destination I have been. I had so much fun. It is super-welcoming and you will have memories to last a lifetime. Thx so much to Figo, Kiki and all the fellow travellers I had the pleasure of meeting. I’ll be back!
Overview: We booked a two-week stay with my partner, and it was our first workation. The experience was simply fantastic and exceeded our expectations. Location: The accommodation is very remote and secluded, which we found to be a huge plus. The house is enormous, with multiple rooms and three shared bathrooms. The communal kitchen, dining area, and living room are spacious and well-equipped. The garden is particularly impressive, featuring a pizza stone oven, various seating areas (also suitable for working), a ping-pong table, and much more. The property has a charming, rustic flair, and while it shows some signs of age, this only adds to its unique character. Additionally, there are two cars available for the community to share, making it easy to drive to Funchal, Pico do Arieiro, and other points of interest despite the remote location. Community Spirit: The sense of community is a central aspect here. Although we were initially skeptical because we enjoy our privacy, we were thrilled from day one. We met so many wonderful people from different countries like Japan, the USA, and Ireland. This cultural diversity was very enriching. Living together, going on after-work excursions, cooking, and cleaning together always worked out very well. Host Figo: Figo, the host, has been living on Madeira for a long time and can provide many valuable tips that you won’t find on the internet or in travel guides. This added value is priceless, and you can tell that he is passionate about helping guests collect unique experiences on the island. For this reason alone, we would definitely return. Conclusion: For us, it was the best first workation experience, motivating us to plan such stays regularly. We highly recommend this accommodation and host Figo, and we hope many more guests can enjoy this wonderful experience.
stay at homeoffice surpassed all my expectations. as an introvert i was afraid to do all this coliving thing, which i have never tried before. BUT it was the most unforgetable experience I could get. At the first place Madeira is amazing, the house is perfectly fitting for such a coliving thing - you get a lot of private space as well as common space where you can spend time together. All the hiking tips Figo gathered are worth a million. House rules are really perfectly set (german style haha) and at least during my week everybody respected them and was cooperative. We had also Peter as a host whose determination was far beyond. Thank you all, I am feeling this was not the last time I visited that lovely house. 💙
I visited the Homeoffice Madeira for 2 weeks in April and can recommend it to anyone. The house is perfect for working and after-work activities (fast internet on the property, various workplaces in the house and in the garden for quiet and productive work, as well as space to relax). Everything is neat and clean and Figo makes sure that everything is well organized and attaches great importance to good social interaction within the group. Always cool and friendly people with whom you enjoy spending time after work and exploring the island. There are two rental cars and the activities are always planned together as a group. Figo has some insider tips on how to get to know the island from a beautiful and non-touristy side. I have already booked my next workation!
Great experience ! I visited Homeoffice Madeira for a week. Although we had bad weather during the entire week, in the house there was always a nice atmosphere and people who are up to some activity after work. Working experience was very smooth, as I had the option to join others who were working together or be in my room use my own table and external monitor. These options were available also for other aspects such as eating or hiking, which I believe is a great benefit for people who would like to experience both to join a group or enjoy their own company. Figo did a great job to keep things in order as a host and from time to time blend in with us and made our experience even more pleasant. The place offers rental cars, shared & individual grocery shopping lists and local tipps, which solves a lot of time and effort upon visiting a new place, leaving you much more room to focus on your work and leisure. I would say 1 week was a bit short for me, since it took me a couple of days to understand how all the amenities work and start enjoying the place. I definitely recommend Homeoffice Madeira !
What a great place to spend your time on. We spent a whole week as a team there and it was super relaxed. Figo took us out to hiking trips and was always there if we needes something. All in all a wonderful experience and we already miss Lotus, the Homeoffice dog :)
