Company information

Our Madeira was established in 2009 by Linda & Ricardo Dias. We have both worked in tourism all our lives, the great majority of which in Madeira, where we live (and where Ricardo hails from). We know how important it is to find the right holiday home for your holidays, and searching through the many websites can be exhausting, time-consuming and confusing. And of course, you want to make sure you are dealing with a dependable company. Our commitment is to provide a unique, personal service, using our in-depth knowledge of Madeira (our island home) and of all the villas and apartments we feature, to assist you in making the right holiday rental choice. For some of the properties we just handle the reservations on the owner's behalf, but for others we take care of the cleaning and maintenance and we will be there to greet you on arrival at the villa. All our properties are know to us personally. Between us we have over 60 years experience in tourism, so we like to think that we know what we are doing! However we can't do it alone, so we have the help of Norberta, who will answer your enquiries and assist you in every way possible.

Property information

Set in the lovely garden that is a veritable sun trap, this beautifully restored stone cottage is superbly positioned on the cliff top with outstanding views of the sea and coastline. Perfect for those that wish to experience the traditional Madeira lifestyle and be close to the sandy beach of Calheta as well as having access to the beautiful Madeira countryside. The traditional doors lead to the bijou living space, which leads into the kitchen and the protected barbecue area where you will find a further table and chairs and a second shower room. The staircase takes you up to a landing and small seating area with a window looking out to the fantastic view of the coastline. The master double bedroom and second twin bedroom are on the first floor and share the main bathroom. The mature garden is filled with typical Madeiran plants and set on various levels, creating perfect sunbathing conditions - sunbeds are provided. The well-equipped kitchen has a 4-ring gas hob and oven, microwave, electric coffee maker and kettle, toaster, juice maker and toasted sandwich maker. Outside door leads to the barbecue area, where you will find a fitted brick barbecue and a table and chairs.

Neighbourhood information

A few minutes by car will take you to the resort town of Calheta, which, with its man-made golden beaches, is popular with tourists and locals alike. There is a beautiful marina and a good choice of bars and restaurants. There is a handful of boutique shops and a good supermarket. Calheta is famous for producing the best white rum 'Aguardente', a special ingredient of the typical Madeiran drink 'Poncha'. If you are interested in knowing how the white rum is made, we recommend a tour of the 'Engenho da Calheta' the rum distillery where you can wander around and sample the produce. Centro das Artes Casa da Mudas is a new centre located at the edge of a cliff overlooking the sea and was built to host superb art exhibitions, musical performances and other events. Madeira is a paradise for those who enjoy walking and hiking, and Arco da Calheta is ideally situated, having easy access to the road network and most places on the island. Within 15 minutes are the beaches at Ponta do Sol and Ribeira Brava, the esplanades at Jardim do Mar and Paul do Mar, the laurasilva forest of Madeira and the moon like landscape of Paul da Serra.
