About this property
Zula House - Stunning villa spectacular location
This stunning house is situated in a perfect position right at the point of the Garajau headland - making it extremely private and with the most incredible ocean views. It was designed by world-famous, multi-award-winning interior designer Nini Andrade Silva and has some truly stunning features. The spectacular master bedroom and en-suite bathroom, for instance, has 10M of floor-to-ceiling windows looking directly out to the ocean. The three other double bedrooms (one has twin beds) all have direct access to the pool area and ocean views, all are all spacious with en-suite bathrooms, and all have been newly renovated and include a separate lounge and dressing area. There is a large kitchen/dining/lounge area, a TV room, and a massive games room - with darts and a ¾ sized snooker table, as well as an office area with a work desk and a second screen that can be attached to a laptop. Outside, the large upstairs terrace is perfect for entertaining, with a relaxing area and an outside dining area equipped with a Weber BBQ. The terrace looks down to the heated swimming pool and gardens, and from there directly to Madeira's famous Christo Rei statue and the ever-changing vista of the Atlantic Ocean. There is private off-street parking for two cars at the front of the property. Garajau's traditional High Street has a great range of shops, cafés, bars, supermarkets and restaurants, all within easy walking distance of the house. The house is just ten minutes' drive from Funchal International Airport, and only eight kilometres from Funchal town centre.
Airport transfers and sightseeing tours can be organised.

We are four American women who loved this beautiful house with amazing sea views. We walked into the local village for coffee every morning and took taxis into Funchal most days. We loved the on/off bus in Funchal. We could walk to the famous statue on the sea from this house. It was a great trip!

Spectacular views
The most striking feature of the villa is the setting and the views over the ocean . Panoramic unobstructed views allowed us to view sunrise and sunset. Very spacious ( we were 6 adults) inside and outside
Plenty of parking, overall clean except for some ants in a downstairs bedroom . Great location in garajau with restaurants groceries cafe/ bakery nearby. Only issue was the pool was not heated on our request. Manager response was not satisfactory. Otherwise this would be 5 star rated
