Casa Calheta

Holiday Rental Description

Sandwiched between the Paul da Serra plateau, the ancient laurel forests of Madeira Natural Park, and the majestic North Atlantic, this spectacular Arco da Calheta offers a front-row seat to Madeira's stunning natural beauty.

While away, your days curled up with a good book in the hammock, gently swaying in the breeze, soak up some sun on a poolside lounger and take in the endless sea views from your inviting infinity pool. Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors offer seamless access to two king-sized bedrooms and a chic open-plan living area that combines modern tech with a hint of mid-century style. When you're not making the most of the glorious weather, sink into leather beanbag chairs, stretch out on the corner sofa in front of the TV, or enjoy a contemplative moment in the privacy of your bedroom.

Away from your idyllic surroundings, Praia da Calheta – one of the island's few sandy beaches – is just a short drive away. For the active among your party, there are plenty of challenging levada walks along well-maintained paths. The nearby Vereda do Fanal is particularly beautiful, with open panoramic views, verdant vegetation and challenging terrain.
