While staying at Casa Espetada, you will be delighted to discover that the Restaurant Miradouro is within walking distance, but be prepared to tackle the 400 metre ascent up a hill! The friendly local venue serves a beautiful range of dishes including meat skewers, grilled chicken and passion fruit pudding. The portions are generous here – so expect to take a goodie bag home!

Madeira Beach Marina is a 5-minute drive away from the villa and is an excellent spot to admire the range of boats that frequent the island from. Come here for some quiet contemplation.

The little village of Arco Da Calheta lies only 3 Km away from Casa Espetada. Founded in 1572, the village is an idyllic location for some inspiring nature hikes with it being situated in between breathtaking mountains and below epic surrounding hills.

While in this charming village, head down the island’s only tiki bar, Pukiki. The bar was created to emphasize the history between Madeira and Hawaii. Madeira used to be widely referred to as the Hawaii of Europe as many people from the island sailed to Hawaii to find work in the sugar cane industry during the 1800s. With the largest selection of rum on the island, the cocktails at Pukiki are a delight and a must try. The locally run bar is also a stellar location to watch the sunset from and all of the rum-based drinks are created from sugar cane.

THE REGION

Calheta, meaning ‘Small Cove’, is where many tourists flock to in order to indulge in beautiful man-made beaches and striking scenery.

This part of Madeira is formed of several municipalities, each with something unique and special to offer. Calheta Village is an ideal place to start especially if you enjoy a stiff drink! An old sugar cane factory still produces one of the world’s most respected white rums – Aguardente…perhaps you want to leave this part of your holiday till late in the evening!

Jardim do Mar is where you will find many of the locals on dawn patrol, taking to the waves and surfing. The waters can both be heavy and flat, making them ideal for abilities of surfer. Akaw!
 
For lovers of seafood, you should look no further than Paul do Mar. This is a village where most of the fisherman work out of, so you know you’ll be able to find the catch of the day here.

For those who have travelled to Madeira for its inland beauty, then look no further than Arco da Calheta and Prazeres. Within these locations you won’t only be able find some stunning hiking trails, but you’re also likely to stumble across some traditionally styled Parishes and unforgettable views.

ABOUT MADEIRA

The island of Madeira can be found south west of mainland Portugal, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Due to the island’s location, its is considered to have a Mediterranean climate that serves locals and visitors all year round – making it an ideal escape from reality at any point in the year.

What we love Madeira for is its seemingly ongoing festivals! Madeirans have found an excuse to celebrate most things; including film, their natural surroundings and key patron saints. This means that planning a visit during these days and even weeks of commemoration is well worth it (scroll down to see some key dates).

Madeira is divided into several municipals, each with a special offering to those who visit this island. Our favourite two communities are Funchal and Calheta and these are where you will find most of our beautiful villas.

Madeira’s landscape extends much more than a striking coastline. Make sure you pack some hiking boots and venture inland during your stay. With mountainous trails along Vereda do Arieiro, or more countryside appropriate paths like Levada do Risco and waterfall chasing treks like Levada do Caldeirao Verde – this archipelago has everything a keen outdoors person requires.

For those who enjoy either playing or watching sports, you’ll be happy to know Madeira offers so much selection. Madeira is also home to three notable football clubs, so if you’re visiting during the football season and want to see a good quality of football, you have every chance to. Porto Santo Golfe is the island’s renowned golf course. With an 18-hole course (Par 72) overlooking a Galapagos-like backdrop, golf enthusiasts will certainly want a ‘slice’ of the action! Surfers can access some great beaches like Jardim do Mar, Ponta Pequena, Paul do Mar, and Fajã da Ovelha in order to find some swell. Or, if you’re simply looking to recline on a sun lounger and soak up some rays, whilst listening to crystal clear waves break as they hit the shores, you will find plenty of man-made beaches & Lidos created for your leisure!

With a superb climate, close proximity to the coastline, wonderful cuisine, charming locals and astonishing scenery – this is a fabulous holiday choice for families & friends.

But while you're enjoying one of our fantastic villas in Madeira, you may well want to take some time out from all that sun worship to explore everything else the region has to offer – so we've put together this handy travel guide to give you a little help and inspiration!

Best Suited For: All Ages

Take the kids on a trip to Caravel Art Center which lies a 40-minute drive away from the villa. The center puts on a variety of interesting exhibitions as well as providing educational services, and dance and musical evenings.

The center is home to a shop selling beautiful handmade goods, all stamped with ‘made in Madeira.’ The shop excellently shows off local talent and craftsmanship through a range of ceramics and textiles.

    Das Haus war in einem einwandfreiem und sauberen Zustand. Die Schlüsselübergabe bei Übernahme und Rückgabe verlief professionell und freundlich. Nur das angegebene Solarium haben wir nicht gefunden - im Sommer und bei angenehm sonnigen Wetter auch kein Problem. Leider mussten wir am Abreisetag das Haus bereits um 10.00 Uhr räumen - hie wäre 12.00 deutlich angenehmer gewesen
