About Us

Hey there, welcome to Madeira Picks! We’re just a bunch of folks who love Madeira but got tired of the same old blah advice everyone seems to be tossing around.

You know what we’re talking about!

Ask around for the best spots, and you’ll get the same rehearsed lines. Dive into the internet, and it’s like everyone’s reading from the same script. Honestly, it’s a mess.

Here’s the hard truth: Most advice about Madeira? Not great. Locals, bless them, they mean well (Hopefully), but sometimes you end up chasing your tail. And don’t get us started on the internet wisdom. It feels like 99% of it is someone trying to sell you their version of “the best” before you can even ask, “Best what?”

So, what did we do?

We decided to cut through the noise. We’re not here to sell you anything or tell you fairy tales. We’re here because we believe finding the good stuff in Madeira shouldn’t be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Our mission is simple: sift through the BS and give it to you straight. What works, what doesn’t, and what’s actually worth your time. We’re digging into everything – restaurants, bars, hikes, real estate brokers, lawyers, accountants, tax advisors, communities, car rentals, you name it.

No sugar-coating, no bias, just real talk.

Think of us as that friend who always knows the best places to go and the best services to use, minus the BS. We’re on the ground, testing the waters, so you get the real deal about Madeira.

Join us, why don’t you? It’s about time Madeira had something like this, and we’re just getting started. Let’s explore the real Madeira together.
