This property exceeded all our expectations! The house and outside space with negative edge pool were all beautiful. We loved being away from the crowded city and enjoying the peaceful beauty of Madeira. We arrived in the middle of the night. The 6 of us with luggage were driven comfortably by pre-arranged transport to the property about an hour away. We rented cars in nearby Calheta for the week the next day and dropped them at the airport when departing Madeira. Driving on the roads in Madeira is not for the faint hearted but we did fine. There was a very nice grocery store in Calheta to obtain groceries for the week. The kitchen was well outfitted for preparing meals together. We even did wood fired chicken on the grill in the outdoor kitchen. There are Levadas for hiking nearby, great Lighthouse views, close to Porto Moniz & Seixal, and the Fanal Forest. It was so nice to have a comfortable place to watch the sunsets. We had a great week and are so happy we chose this property. An Island Apart was exceptional to do business with! ##### Andrea G. ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [ Enotel Lido – All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Enotel-Lido.h881176.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Alto Lido](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Alto-Lido.h1413064.Hotel-Information) > - [The Editory Ocean Way Funchal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Editory-By-The-Sea-Funchal-Hotel.h112816350.Hotel-Information) > - [The Views Monumental](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Views-Monumental.h918494.Hotel-Information) > - [Pestana Grand Premium Ocean Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Grand-Premium-Ocean-Resort.h1052356.Hotel-Information) > - [CASA IVA 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom house with swimming pool and sea views](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calheta-Hotels-Madeira-CASA-IVA-3-Bedroom.h20359852.Hotel-Information) > - [Vidamar Resort Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Vidamar-Resort-Madeira-Dining-Around.h519967.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Girassol - Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Girassol.h2335234.Hotel-Information) > - [Vila Baleira Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Santo-Hotels-Luamar-Aparthotel.h1688755.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) > - [ Saccharum Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calheta-Hotels-Saccharum-Resort-Spa-Savoy-Signature.h10225046.Hotel-Information) > - [Villa Alvinho | Lifestyle&Nature | Heated Pool 28ºC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Villa-Alvinho-LifestyleNature-Heated-Pool-28oC.h20895891.Hotel-Information) > - [Porto Mare Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Porto-Mare-Hotel.h1058018.Hotel-Information) > - [Dreams Madeira Resort Spa & Marina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Machico-Hotels-Dreams-Madeira-Resort-Spa-Marina.h6141723.Hotel-Information) > - [Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Reids-Palace.h11185.Hotel-Information) > - [Cliff View III](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Cliff-View-III.h32903787.Hotel-Information) > - [The Cliff Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Cliff-Bay.h190859.Hotel-Information) > - [Monte Mar Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sao-Vicente-Hotels-Monte-Mar-Palace-Hotel.h1187176.Hotel-Information) > - [Pestana Promenade Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Promenade-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h2864999.Hotel-Information) > - [Three House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Oudinot-Suites.h49024024.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Riu Madeira - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Palace-Madeira.h4813351.Hotel-Information) > - [Enotel Magnólia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Enotel-Magnolia.h874159.Hotel-Information) > - [Muthu Raga Madeira Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Muthu-Raga-Madeira-Hotel.h2130258.Hotel-Information) > - [Cliff-top villa, panoramic sea-views | Cliffscape](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calheta-Hotels-Cliff-Top-Villa.h21688035.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Baía Azul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Baia-Azul.h1417768.Hotel-Information) > - [Fajã dos Padres](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Camara-De-Lobos-Hotels-Faja-Dos-Padres.h2693138.Hotel-Information) > - [Casa Velha do Palheiro, Relais & Chateaux](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Casa-Velha-Do-Palheiro.h565067.Hotel-Information) > - [Quinta da Bela Vista - Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Quinta-Da-Bela-Vista-Madeira.h994452.Hotel-Information) > - [Secluded Sunset Villa on Cliff & 180° Ocean Views](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calheta-Hotels-Secluded-Sunset-Villa-Set-In-Lush-Mature-Gardens-With-Amazing-Sea-View.h33736637.Hotel-Information) ---
