We absolutely love this sublime holiday home. Nestled on the south coast of the archipelago of Madeira, this villa lets you spend a blissful holiday gazing out at stunningly blue ocean views while you rest and rejuvenate. We absolutely love the outdoor areas, with a beautiful private outdoor pool where you can enjoy a cooling dip when the heat turns up, plus many sitting and lounging areas where you can enjoy your superb surroundings in peace. Inside, you’ll find a modern and stylish home that has all you need for an effortless stay. We love the dining area where you can tuck into delicious Piri-Piri chicken all together, as well as the playroom where you can challenge your loved ones to a game on the football table, or a round of ping pong. When you want to venture out, you’re just a five-minute drive to Calheta beach where you can find golden sand and warm seas – and the fun-filled city of Funchal is great for a day trip when you want to explore further.
