Elevated in location as well as style, this grand holiday home is well-prepped to provide you with a wonderful place to make many fond memories with friends and family. Boasting a breathtaking location nestled up above the Atlantic Ocean, this home will make your jaw drop as soon as you arrive – the white Roman columns, intricate exposed stonework and the fantastic infinity pool make the outdoor space in particular feel like your own personal patch of paradise. Rest here with your morning coffee and watch the sunrise over the ocean in the distance – close your eyes, breathe in the ocean air and just be.

Inside the home is just as impressive – tall ceilings give it a sense of grandeur, unique artwork adorns the walls, and chic furniture invites you to rest and relax. There's a large lounge area for chilling out or playing party games together, and the contemporary kitchen gives you everything you need to cook up delicious breakfasts of Portuguese baked eggs to eat all together around the dining table.

Blue Hibiscus

This fabulous Funchal Bay pad, adjacent to the historic Palheiro Gardens make the perfect couple’s retreat. Boasting interiors designed by a well-known Portuguese interior architect, not to mention a beautiful balcony and breath-taking ocean views at every turn, this heavenly home really does have it all. As if it couldn’t get better than that, you’ll also have access to a range of resort facilities including indoor and outdoor pools and a health and fitness centre.

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

Take in the ocean breeze from this stunning holiday home. Located just a little way east along the coast from Funchal, this modern dwelling provides you with absolutely breathtaking panoramic views of the big blue, as well as the perfect base from which to explore the chilled-out island of Madeira.

Peace is paramount in this holiday home – the zen vibes run throughout the home, with serene artwork, a tranquil colour scheme, and of course, the dreamy setting. You will find it easy to switch off from the day-to-day and just relax. The outdoor areas provide lots of lovely views, with a swinging egg chair, lounge area and dining area that are all great for enjoying a pitcher of cocktails with loved ones as the sun starts to set. Inside, there's a fully-equipped kitchen where you can cook up tasty Madeiran meals, and two lounge areas so each guest can enjoy having the space to stretch out and enjoy.

Want to head out? A small surcharge will give you access to some top-notch health and fitness facilities, as well as a fantastic 18-hole golf course based nearby where you can challenge your loved ones to a round or two.

Zen Vista

With its stunning location above Funchal, the views over both the town and the Madeira sea from the infinity pool of this modern villa put it head and shoulders above other places to stay in the area. On a beautiful Madeiran summer’s day, you’ll want to spend your time lying on one of the sun loungers overlooking the water, or kicking back with a drink on the first-floor balcony. Cook up a feast in the well-equipped kitchen to enjoy al fresco on the outdoor table. There’s also a PS4, gym area, snooker, darts and ping pong, so there’s no chance of getting bored.

Portico Paradise

Providing a stunning panoramic view of the ocean below, this home sits peacefully up in a raised spot above the southern coast of Madeira – and once you've seen it for yourself, you'll agree that its perched position is not the only thing that's elevated about this holiday home. 

Step out on the terrace and immediately be blown away by the blue views before you. Here, you can sit in the egg chair and watch the sun come up with a cup of coffee in hand, or dine out in the evenings on the alfresco dining set, and soak up every last minute of the sunshine. There's another patio area with a hot tub here too – great for giving your muscles a good soak after long days exploring Funchal, based just a short drive away.

Inside, the home is just as exquisite, with elegant furniture, opulent decor and a calming neutral colour scheme that runs throughout.

Blurred Horizons

Cue swoon-worthy panoramic views, cocktails on the terrace, and an all-around lavish experience at this waterfront villa inviting guests to enjoy Funchal in a truly luxurious setting. You'll be able to take in the crystalline ocean views from pretty much wherever you are in the home. Still, our favourite spot, without a shadow of a doubt, is the infinity swimming pool (preferably with a cold beverage in hand). Relish in the open air, with the manicured gardens, alfresco dining areas and secluded balcony corners for moments of reflection – all while pinching yourself that this is real. 

Inside, wonderful artwork selections and finishing touches create an atmospheric space dripping in antique Madeiran elegance. The home's central hub extends upwards with two-story ceilings and a large salon – perfect for hosting receptions or social affairs. Meanwhile, marble archways lead out to the wrap-around balcony, which frames the spectacular seascape like a painting on the wall. Each bedroom and bathroom suite provides guests with blissful privacy and the opportunity for moments of solitude when needed. 

Only two minutes from the beach, you'll be within convenient reach of many quality restaurants, bars and shops, alongside the city of Funchal's fabulous cultural hot spots and picturesque harbour.
