With a privileged view over the sea and located in a calm area, this property is the perfect accommodation for your holidays on the Island of Madeira. Located in the municipality of Santa Cruz, this modern apartment is situated in the tranquil area of Gaula. With very well-maintained exteriors and a contemporary design, this accommodation encompasses the best of nature and comfort in one. Inside, the apartment is divided into 2 bedrooms, both with double beds, and they are the chosen spot to rest after a long walk or simply to relax with the sound of the waves. The bathroom is ideal for 4 people with a spacious walk-in shower so that you can relax and recharge your energy for another day. The kitchen, fully equipped with the most modern equipment, was designed in an open space, favouring the passage to the dining area. This area is perfect for enjoying a dinner or receiving friends with total safety and comfort that the local accommodation provides. The common leisure area is also spacious and receives natural light throughout the day as it has direct access to the balcony. On the outside, the view speaks for itself! Waking up with the sunrise over the sea or enjoying your balcony until sunset will be one of your favourite activities. When renting a car to better explore Madeira, you can park it in the building's garage with complete convenience and peace of mind. In the vicinity of the building, you will find the fast road, the main artery to all points of the island. A short distance from your accommodation, you will find the pleasant Village of Santa Cruz with various facilities such as the island's Airport, restaurants, pharmacies, and an inviting promenade along the beach. The eastern end of the island, the well-known Ponta de São Lourenço in the Caniçal area, is accessible about 10 minutes by car. This is one of the tourist spots that is almost mandatory to visit due to its cliffs demarcated by the sea. The famous Ponta de São Lourenço trail, also known as recommended route number 8, is precisely located here. Besides the landscape, Caniçal is prestigious when it comes to local gastronomy as it is still considered a fishing village today. It is then one of the best regions of the island to taste the typical limpets, octopus and swordfish. If you are looking to rest in a quality environment and enjoy an endless view, this is your accommodation! We guarantee you will have your dream holiday! Since 2017, we have been receiving travellers from all over the world on our beloved Madeira Island, with the commitment to provide memorable experiences and excellent service. We started as Madeira Sun Travel, a name that reflected the sun, comfort, and welcoming spirit that has always guided us. Over time, we realised that we wanted to go further: more proximity, more authenticity, more connection. This is how Homie was born. More than a new name - a new way of being. Hey Homie, we believe that travelling is more than discovering new places - it's about feeling at home, even far away from home. That's why we don't just hand over keys: we offer warm welcomes, recommendations that turn into unforgettable discoveries, and accommodations cared for with the same affection we would treat our own home. Each stay is thought out in detail to be special and welcoming. Each house has its own story. And each guest is received like an old friend. Our team, composed of experts in hospitality, communication, finance, maintenance, and design, is committed to taking care of every stage of the experience - from pre-booking to check-out. We work every day to create stays that leave lasting memories. We are recognised for our personalised attention, the trust of owners who choose us to manage their spaces, and the positive reviews from our guests, which reflect the quality of service we provide. Beyond comfort and hospitality, we also provide, upon request, additional services such as car rental, activity bookings, personalised experiences and much more - all so that you can enjoy Madeira to the fullest. Be a traveller looking for a special spot or a homeowner seeking someone who will care for your home with dedication, you are in the right place.

Check-in was a little difficult since it was later than preferred (16:30) and had to meet an agent at property to get in. It was also not quite as well equipped as other properties I stayed at ... most notably a standard coffee maker. They had a nice pod coffee maker, but this needed specific pods we didn't have. Also, there was a small 1 cup perculator coffee pot for the stove, which we used, but the one cup capacity made it difficult. The basics for cooking were there ... a few small items such as a small sauce pan would be helpful. All in all, we enjoyed our stay though! Would certainly recommend the property ... :-) ##### Gary L.

Alles daher zu eng. Küchenausstattung fehlte einiges: Kleiner Kochtopf, Sieb, Topflappen und Küchenpapier oder Lappen. Lage am Flughafen in der Landezone ist erträglich. Der Sonnenaufgang ist phantastisch, der Fernseher top, die Betten hart und nicht durchgelegen, top! ##### Rainer K. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Corinne H. 8 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fast perfekt Eine geräumige, gut und modern eingerichtete, schöne Wohnung, tolle Lage. Es hat auch viele Kleinigkeiten, um die man froh ist, wie z Bsp ein Wäscheständer, eine Bügelbrett...Da nur wenige Flugzeuge starten und landen, hat uns der Lärm nicht gross gestört. Leider hatte es keine Liegestühle und die Matratzen waren für uns viel zu hart. Der Parkplatz in der Garage ist wegen der Wärme toll, leider habe ich wegen der eng stehenden Säulen trotz aller Vorsicht, den Lack des Autos zerkratzt. Alles in allem sehr empfehlenswert:) ##### Corinne H. Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2022 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catarina 31 May 2022 #### Adorei a casa Adoramos a localização da casa, bem decotada e equipada! Talvez o serviço, demoraram muito tempo a devolver a chamada. O pagamento teve de ser feito em dinheiro, também não nos deixou confortável. E não tínhamos a morada exata da casa, não recebemos essa informações nos e-mails. Mas colaboradoras muito simpáticas ##### Catarina ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jurgen D. 3 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Mooi appartement op rustige locatie Het appartement is in orde en heeft een terras met een prachtig uitzicht. De parking in de garage is moeilijk bereikbaar. In de onmiddellijke omgeving is er echter niet veel te beleven, maar je hebt sowieso best een huurwagen om Madeira te ontdekken. ##### Jurgen D.
