And then, there are places that conquer us. Get to know Villa Achada da Mouca by Homie! In the heart of the emblematic Santana zone, surrounded by the untouched nature of the island, this rural villa is the perfect refuge for those who wish to escape routine and recharge their energies. Enveloped in stunning gardens, Villa Achada da Mouca invites moments of pure relaxation, with reading nooks, leisure areas, a welcoming veranda and a barbecue with a winter garden, which set the scene for memorable experiences. The house, with its rustic and cosy design, combines comfort and traditional charm. Composed of two bedrooms — a suite with a double bed and another room with two separate beds — all bathed in natural light and with enchanting views over the gardens, it offers an environment of serenity and privacy. The living room, with direct access to the outdoors, is perfect for moments of socialising or warming up by the fireplace on cooler days. The kitchen and dining area, fully equipped, provide all the necessary comfort to prepare delicious meals. On the top floor, a lounge with a secular wine cellar and billiards table adds a touch of fun and exclusivity to your stay. Despite having two private parking spaces, it will not be necessary to use the car to explore the surrounding nature. Just 2 km away, you will find the idyllic Queimadas area, a starting point for numerous trails and levadas in the region. Among them, the Levada do Caldeirão Verde, the Levada do Caldeirão do Inferno, the Levada do Rei and the Levada da Silveira are unmissable. Waterfalls, forest parks with picnic areas, panoramic viewpoints, the Madeira Theme Park and the typical colourful houses of Santana complete the scenery of a unique experience. Villa Achada da Mouca by Homie is not just accommodation. It is an invitation. An invitation to slow down, to breathe, to feel the forest and nature around you. It is the starting point for unforgettable moments in the heart of Madeira! 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. 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. 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. Please note that check-in after 22:00 is subject to a late check-in fee of €20\.

Elle est au milieu des arbres, et a un beau jardin. C’est une maison d’autrefois aux murs de grosses pierres recouverts de boiseries à l’intérieur. Elle est aménagée de façon moderne, tout le confort s’y trouve, elle est chauffée par des radiateurs soufflants situés en hauteur, utiles dès qu’on est à l’intérieur, du fait de températures entre 14° et 10° en janvier, en tout cas au début de janvier 2024\. Elle dispose d’une cheminée en insert, agréable le soir, avec le bois mis à disposition. De multiples objets, accrochés aux murs posés sur les étagères ou suspendus au plafond créent un décor vivant et omniprésent un peu déroutant au début, mais qui fait la personnalité de cette maison, en fait attachante. Le défaut réside dans le fait que les pièces à vivre sont sombres, exigeant l’éclairage même en plein jour et même quand il fait beau, mais probablement agréable pour sa fraîcheur en été. Garer la voiture se fait par un plan incliné raide, auquel il faut s’habituer. Les personnes de l’agence de location ont été du début à la fin remarquables de courtoisie et de précision, joignables et nous joignant selon les besoins, y compris dimanche et premier janvier. Globalement un bon séjour, la maison est bien, plusieurs lieux de marche à proximité, se rendre à Santana par la route en lacets est assez rapide, dans les 10 mn. ##### Frédéric S.
