LOCATION The property is in a rural area near the village of Calheta, where there is a sand beach and many restaurants and cafes. Calheta is located in the southwestern part of the island, which has the best weather conditions in Madeira.

REMARKS Cleaning is done before guests check in and then there is a weekly maintenance cleaning, which includes the change of bed linen and towels. A car is recommended, but there are bus stops nearby. As the entrance to the parking area and several roads in Madeira have a steep slope and very sharp curves, smaller vehicles with a powerful engine and high ground clearance are recommended.

The request to heat the swimming pool must by at least 5 days in advance and will be confirmed with the payment notice. On cold days, the pool heating may not be enough to reach 24ºC.

The house has a security system with video surveillance that is deactivated. There is a video surveillance camera outside near the entrance that does not cover private areas of the house.

The location is really nice and quiet. Not too far up the mountain, so you have a nice climate during the whole day without making a compromise for the view. Our contact person Sidonia was also great. Whenever we had a question, she answered immediately. ##### Maximilian P. Stayed 9 nights in Sep 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stefan 31 Oct 2024 #### An absolutely relaxing stay Villa Santa Madalena is a spacious house that allowed us to enjoy a relaxing holiday as a familiy of four and offered exactly what we had been looking for. We particularly liked the layout of the rooms, the high ceilings, the beautiful view of the sea and the garden. Heating the large pool in October was absolutely worth the money. All the rooms as well as the two baths and the kitchen were very clean, which we also liked very much. Some of the garden furniture needs a little care. In the kitchen you will find a colourful mix of different crockery and cutlery as well as some equipment that could be sorted out or needs to be replaced. There are only a few places to store clothes, so we had to leave some things in the suitcase. ##### Stefan This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maartje 20 Aug 2024 #### Wonderful place! 10+ We loved the location of the house, the pool. The kitchen is really well equipped! Even better dan my own kitchen. A lot of plates/cuttlery/pots and panns. We had a lot of contact with the owner and with Sidonia. They did everything do make our stay as perfect as can be. We would love to come back one day. The house felt like our own. The beds were a little bit hard. The appartment downstairs smelled a bit moisty. ##### Maartje ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pestana Carlton Madeira Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Carlton-Madeira-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h14327.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Alto Lido](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Alto-Lido.h1413064.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Casino Park Ocean and SPA Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Casino-Park-Ocean-And-SPA-Hotel.h14349.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Porto Santo Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Santo-Hotels-Pestana-Porto-Santo-Beach-Resort-Spa.h1889090.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Royal All Inclusive Ocean & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Royal-Premium-All-Inclusive-Ocean-Spa-Resort.h487421.Hotel-Information) > > [Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Reids-Palace.h11185.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Promenade Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Promenade-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h2864999.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Madeira.h3891890.Hotel-Information) > > [The Views Oasis - Family Friendly](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Four-Views-Oasis-Hotel.h918495.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence at Vila Porto Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Residence-At-Vila-Porto-Mare.h8034952.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Grand Premium Ocean Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Grand-Premium-Ocean-Resort.h1052356.Hotel-Information) > > [Calheta Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calheta-Hotels-Calheta-Beach-All-Inclusive-Savoy-Signature.h1056570.Hotel-Information) > > [Golden Residence Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Golden-Residence-Hotel.h2130257.Hotel-Information) > > [Barcelo Funchal Oldtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Barcelo-Funchal-Oldtown.h83695546.Hotel-Information) > > [Savoy Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Savoy-Palace-The-Leading-Hotels-Of-The-World-Savoy-Signature.h32089418.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Vila Lido Madeira Ocean Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Palms-Ocean-Aparthotel.h862912.Hotel-Information) > > [Enotel Lido](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Enotel-Lido.h881176.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Madeira Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Melia-Madeira-Mare.h2264070.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Ocean Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Ocean-Bay-Resort.h863866.Hotel-Information) > > [Vidamar Resort Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Vidamar-Resort-Madeira-Dining-Around.h519967.Hotel-Information) > > [Saccharum Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calheta-Hotels-Saccharum-Resort-Spa-Savoy-Signature.h10225046.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cliff Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Cliff-Bay.h190859.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Madeira - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Palace-Madeira.h4813351.Hotel-Information) > > [Suite Hotel Eden Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Suite-Hotel-Eden-Mar.h527443.Hotel-Information) > > [The Views Monumental](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Views-Monumental.h918494.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Savoy - Ocean Resort - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Royal-Savoy-Ocean-Resort-Savoy-Signature.h1193965.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Girassol - Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Girassol.h2335234.Hotel-Information) > > [Porto Mare Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Porto-Mare-Hotel.h1058018.Hotel-Information) > > [Monte Mar Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sao-Vicente-Hotels-Monte-Mar-Palace-Hotel.h1187176.Hotel-Information) > > [Enotel Magnólia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Enotel-Magnolia.h874159.Hotel-Information)
