If you long for a quiet retreat in a quaint cottage by the sea, your search is over – this home will tick every one of your holiday boxes and more. Nestled in São Jorge on the northern coast of Madeira, this is seclusion at its finest. Mere metres away from the beach, your home looks out over the Atlantic with a mountainous backdrop. 

Step inside, and the open-plan space ushers natural light in from every angle. Small in size but still packing a significant punch, you’ll find everything you need for a memorable stay. We love the terrace area  – how could you ever tire of that view? Many happy hours will be spent here, tucked up on the sofa, the barbecue sizzling away in the background and the smell of the food mixing with the unmistakable scent of the ocean that wraps itself around you. As you listen to the sound of the waves lapping against the shore, pour yourself a glass of wine and simply enjoy the moment with your loved ones. They say time flies when you’re having fun – before you know it, the sun will have dropped below the ocean and a blanket of stars will have opened out above you. Weary from the fresh sea air and the pure bliss of a day doing nothing, you can head to bed with wonderful memories and the promise of more to come.

A sparkling rectangle of infinity pool is shared with one other apartment, along with the hillside hot tub. Inside, the walls are kept pristine white without a hint of clutter, and the light-wood kitchen is brightened by sunlight streaming in through a wall of glass.

Charming Madeiran Hideaway

Between the ancient trees of the Laurissilva Forest and the rolling fields of São Vicente, this home sits within a sprawling vineyard. Tinta Negra and Verdelho grapes grow plump in the sun, ready to be harvested for the island’s famous Madeira wine – you can experience this yourself if you time your visit right. Wandering the grounds you’ll find ancient trees (one oak rumoured to be one of the first trees planted on the island), and stone benches sitting in the shade. Trails through the vines and alongside the river start from just outside your door, and there’s a private yard set up for outdoor dining. As an optional extra, the housekeeper can make you breakfast, homemade bread rolls or the local caldo da romaria soup. The house itself is over 200 years old and maintains an air of tradition inside. The living room is rose-petal pink with floral sofas whispering of yesteryear, while a working fireplace keeps things warm in winter. The 12-seater dining table sits by original stone walls and dark-wood dressers add an old-world Portuguese feel. It’s the kitchen that really embraces the farmhouse vibe – the original bread oven can still be used to bake fresh rolls, and sunlight streams in through wood-shuttered windows. You’re out in the countryside here, but the village of São Vicente is just a 10-minute drive away where you can pick up groceries and sample the local restaurants.

Tinta Negra

Sitting within the former School of Fine Arts, this thoughtfully renovated apartment provides the perfect base from which to explore Funchal. 

Just a short walk from the seafront with easy access to the surrounding mountains, you’ll find your stay enriched by the natural beauty and cultural depth of Madeira. 

Enjoy slow morning strolls by the marina, spend a lazy afternoon at the nearby lido and mingle with locals in the colourful weekly market. And when you’re looking for total rest and relaxation, this apartment has everything you could need for a fulfilling stay. 

From the open-plan design to the soft, natural tones, the owners have styled this home to ensure maximum comfort. So whether you’re here with an action-packed itinerary, or to enjoy the magic of the island, this is the kind of space that transforms to suit the mood of the moment. Embrace the simple pleasure of reading in bed, prepare your favourite drinks in the fully equipped kitchen or share a romantic meal at the table – however you spend your time here, it’s easy to settle in and make this space your own. 

Lavender Grey

It's those show-stopping balcony views of Funchal's charming rooftops and glistening sea beyond taking all the glory at this luxurious apartment perched right in the heart of the city. But there's much to be admired inside this high-style bolthole too.

Set in the city's former School of Fine Art, there's some serious design wizardry at play here. While historic features nod to the building's grand past and bring the wow factor (that sweeping staircase and marble-clad foyer are a case in point), everywhere else is a masterstroke in modern living.

Free-flowing and light-filled, the space is cleverly zoned into living and sleeping spaces with a high-spec, marble-clad bathroom at its heart. Sunny mornings call for lazy breakfasts at the bistro table for two with the balcony doors flung open wide. There's everything you could need to rustle up brunch and mimosas in the designer kitchen with a view. Or keep things easy and do like the locals with freshly brewed coffees and obligatory pastel de natas.

When it's time to stretch your legs and explore, you can easily wander to all the city's hotspots from here – starting with the charming marina for a dose of fresh sea air. Then the rest of the day is yours to lose yourself to the city's atmospheric streets, stumbling across Fado bars for live music and Poncha cocktails along the way – just like you imagined.  

A Fine Art

Herb Garden

From the blossoming garden and fragrant scent of herbs to the elevated views, this is the kind of home that celebrates the unique spirit of its setting. And whether you’re looking for a slow-paced island getaway or an action-packed adventure, this location makes it easy to experience the magic of Medeira. 

Sitting peacefully on the hills of Santa Maria Maior with the old town just a five-minute walk away, the owners have styled this space to enrich daily living.

Wake up early and watch the sunrise from the roof terrace, spend a slow morning swaying in the garden hammock and gather for golden-hour drinks with local delicacies as the sun goes down. And when you’re ready to retreat back inside, you’ll find an abundance of space to relax and unwind. Remote workers will also appreciate the dedicated workspace in the loft – which by night transforms into an additional bedroom for two guests. 

From here, follow the ocean breeze down to the seafront or walk to the renowned Lavradores Market – the perfect opportunity to mingle with locals and sample traditional Madeiran cuisine. 

Drop of Light  

This period home has plenty of vintage charm to offer, and while some of the features may appear dated, the warmth and comfort are never lacking here. An excellent base for a couple or a small family visiting Madeira and looking for a tranquil spot away from the usual tourist trails, this home is situated just a ten-minute walk from the volcanic caves of São Vicente and a half-an-hour drive from Funchal. 

After a long day of exploring the island, you’ll be able to relax and soak in the private Jacuzzi, while the well-equipped kitchen invites you to rustle up a delicious supper, inspired by Madeira’s rich culinary tradition. Share your meal at the dining table inside or out on the covered patio. Later settle in for an evening of movies on the comfy sofa, a glass of wine in hand. 

Wake up and enjoy your morning coffee while gazing at the stunning mountains surrounding the home. 

Volcanic Splendour 

Facing an impressive mountain backdrop, this hillside villa overlooks the charming town of Ribeira Brava. Set back from a black-sanded beach and the cafe-lined promenade, we recommend stopping by the historic Mother Church of São Bento – beloved across the region for its collection of 16th-century paintings. Nearby lies the sun-soaked Ponta do Sol, but you couldn't be in a better place to explore the island, with easy access to the highway.

Surrounded by a wealth of natural beauty, this observatory home lets you enjoy a bird's eye view from the secluded terrace. Just imagine flicking through a local newspaper beneath the shade of an umbrella or admiring sunsets from the comfort of the infinity pool. We think the summer kitchen serves as a great hangout spot, inviting you to sit atop carved barstools and try a glass of Madeira wine. After an all-day adventure, how about firing up the smoky grill and serving your loved ones an alfresco supper?

Edge of Forever

Sharing its sea views and its fabulous infinity pool with just one neighbouring home, this modern villa is in a quiet, rural part of the island. The interiors are minimalist and strikingly contemporary, with all-white walls, pale wood floors and bespoke matching furniture. Simple and stylish throughout, floor-to-ceiling windows make the most of the panoramic vistas and the bathroom features a natural stone wall and sliding glass doors to a private courtyard. But it's the outside space that dominates this place. A sun terrace with access to the pool is the perfect spot for evening drinks, while a private balcony off one of the bedrooms is a peaceful place for morning coffee. The infinity pool seems to spill over the edge of one of the island's typically steep slopes and the sea views from here are simply breathtaking. And for a real treat, spend some time each evening in your private hot tub, a quirky circular outdoor bath sunken into the sloping lawn. Best of all, you'll have access to the owner's lush subtropical gardens, filled with fresh fruit, palm trees and herbs. Beneath you, banana farmers go about their business, tending their crops, and it's a pleasant stroll down to the sea, while keen walkers will be able to hike off uphill to take in even more impressive views. 

Heart & Sol

If you're looking for a rustic rural retreat in Madeira, evocative of years gone by, then this stone casa between the sea and the mountains in the Santana World Biosphere Reserve fits the bill. The home overlooks the sea and is surrounded by forests – it really is an enchanting setting. Enjoy the ocean and lush landscape vistas from the balcony with a glass of Madeira and truly unwind. Or get the barbecue going and enjoy a feast in the garden.

Inside, exposed stone, old wooden beams, and a farmhouse style prevail – we love the log burner here – perfect for warming up on chillier days.

Next to this home is a restaurant where you can sample local delicacies or take advantage of some wonderful walking trails on your doorstep. The famous Quinta das Rosas, nearby, has different varieties of roses from all over the world – ideal for those with green fingers. Santana, with its colourful houses and white, baroque-style Igreja de Santana church, is twenty minutes by car, while Funchal is a fifty-minute drive away.


Rose in Paradise

We love this bitesize apartment in the heart of Funchal and think it provides a great base for discovering all of the very best that this unique island has to offer. With a cool, modern decor accented with splashes of colour as well as lovely views over the town, this home certainly proves that small can most definitely be mighty.

Start your day with an authentic Madeiran breakfast and your favourite brew as the gentle morning sunshine streams through the large windows. Then, it's off to see what the island has to offer.

Situated behind the Funchal Municipal Garden, you'll find yourself ideally placed along one of the main arteries of the city. Take a short walk to the famous Municipal Theatre of Baltazar Dias. Or spend the day doing a spot of shopping along the city's leafy boulevards or stroll through the lovely Funchal Marina, perhaps stopping at one of the waterfront restaurants for a sampling of traditional Madeiran cuisine.

With a location dubbed 'the sunniest place in Madeira', it's little wonder this home is committed to letting so much of the outside in. Floor-to-ceiling glass windows and sliding doors flood the modern villa with light and, more importantly, give you front-row seats to breathtaking views over the ocean and hillside. The interiors are sharp and clean, with white-washed walls, cream colours and the occasional pop of teal. The large living space has enough room for your whole group, from dining at the glass table to chilling out on one of the luxury beanbags. Even the games room feels futuristic thanks to a white, curved pool table and matching foosball table. No matter how much you love the modernity of this spot, most of your time will invariably be spent soaking up the vista, whether from the infinity pool or one of the loungers. While restaurants and bars are a drive away, the back garden has its own bar and barbecue area for you to practise your grilling and mixology skills. 

Dragonfly Flutter

And when you’re looking for an inspiring yet quiet space to relax amidst your island adventures, you’ll find this apartment waiting with a warm welcome. 

With its history as the School of Fine Arts, the owners have transformed this building into a contemporary city sanctuary – creating a refreshingly simple apartment that brings comfort to daily living. And just like a blank canvas, this is the kind of space that inspires you to make it your own. 

Enjoy planning your day from the snug sofa or keep things spontaneous and let the city be your guide. From here, it’s just a short stroll to the waterfront, while the centuries-old Cathedral and Funchal Municipal Garden are also within easy reach. 

Indigo Sky

Visit the Sacred Art Museum and the Gothic-style Funchal Cathedral before finding a spot to picnic in the peaceful Santa Catarina Park. If a day at the beach sounds like a good idea, take the short drive to Praia Formosa and stretch out on the sand. 

Back at your abode, an open-plan living space invites you to kick off your shoes and make yourself comfortable. Rustle up something tasty at the fully-equipped kitchenette or fall back onto the sofa with a good book. Outside, there’s a large terrace for barbecues on balmy afternoons and glasses of traditional Poncha come nighttime. And when you’re ready to get some rest, the king-size bed guarantees a restful slumber.

You’ll love waking up to endless Atlantic Ocean views and taking your morning coffee out onto the balcony for more of the same. While away hours reading, reclining or simply gazing out to sea before whipping up a light lunch and dining alfresco around the glass-topped table. At chillier times of year, you’ll relish retreating inside and cosying up on the sofa by the fireplace. 

Alternatively, why not start the day with a little light cardio before lazing on loungers in the sun or taking the plunge in the outdoor pool. If you fancy more of a pamper session get your sweat on in the sauna before luxuriating in the indoor pool or treating yourself to a well-earned massage. Golf-lovers are sure to round up a day spent out on the 18-hole course with a celebratory meal at the on-site club house or the resort’s gourmet restaurant.  


Magical Madeiran Dream

How about spending a vacation in a country house that is very close to the city and all tourist activities? While in the center people live a normal and fast city life, in the high zones, near the mountains, the calm and country atmosphere is a reality. In this small villa composed by three nice properties, you can enjoy all the calm and serenity with a wide view of the Atlantic Ocean and Funchal. This small 'farmhouse' has three stone-walled houses, each named after a tree on our island. The Cedro boasts a bedroom with two single beds, a bathroom with shower, and a fully equipped kitchenette. With its rustic charm and panoramic views, it offers maximum capacity for two people. Located in Santa Maria Maior, Madeira, this enchanting haven is nestled amidst lush gardens and offers tranquility while being just a short drive from restaurants, bakeries, supermarkets, and the city center.

Misty Mountain Lodge

Jacuzzi

Hidden away on the western coast of the enchanting island of Madeira, this contemporary villa stuns with breathtaking sea views that instantly assure you that you made the right choice. The light-filled living and dining area welcomes you with neutral tones and pops of colour added by contemporary furnishings, which sit seamlessly alongside a 70s bamboo swivel chair that's got 'afternoon siesta spot' written all over it. Sliding glass doors lead straight out onto the stone terrace and tranquil tiered garden – which is where you'll want to be spending most of your time under the Atlantic sun. At the end of a long day of exploring the island – either on four wheels, two legs, or wicker sledge – we can think of nothing better than coming back and cooling off in the plunge pool, firing up the barbecue for an alfresco dinner on the terrace, before soothing your aching muscles in the Jacuzzi as you take in the view, drink in hand. Then, when your eyelids get heavy, the minimalist decor of the bedrooms creates the perfect ambience to clear your mind and enjoy an unbroken night's sleep in the comfortable beds.

Relax and unwind with a stay at this cosy oceanside apartment situated in the picturesque village of Madalena do Mar. Perfect as a base for a small family or an intimate group of friends, this light-filled pad will welcome you warmly at the end of each day of island exploring. 

We love the open-plan living room, which invites you to kick back and enjoy an evening of TV and wine on the comfy sofa. There’s also a well-equipped kitchen here – get in touch with your inner chef and create some mouth-watering feasts, inspired by the island’s fresh produce. 

As the sun begins to set, there’s no better place to be than out on the balcony, a glass of something cool in hand. Later, head over to the snug bedrooms for a night of sweet dreams.
