Well-located on the beautiful hillside of Arco Da Calhetta, on the southwest coast of Madeira, sits this perfectly modern, 2-bedroom villa.
Newly built, this one-level home is a welcoming space with unfussy décor, light tones, and colourful pictures on the walls. The breezy, open-plan living area is spacious, uncluttered and awash with natural light. It also has all the modern comforts you could ask for: soft furnishings, WiFi and air-conditioning throughout.
During the day you’ll want to slide open the huge glass doors and let the gentle tropical breeze waft in. The modern kitchen is well-equipped with modern appliances, including dishwasher and coffee maker, and opens onto a neat dining table where you can linger over a casual meal while soaking up the sea views, rolling mountainside and endless blue sky. Alternatively, spend a lazy morning relaxing on the sofa while planning your day’s agenda.
Leading off from the living space are two immaculate bedrooms featuring one double bed and two single beds. Whitewashed walls and swathes of natural light create a tranquil atmosphere while the floor-to-ceiling glass doors allow you to watch the sun rise over the ocean from the comfort of your bed. Each bedroom also has its own pristine bathroom with shower and easy access to the terrace.
While rooms are all comfortably sized, it is the outside that beckons from almost every corner of the house. Step onto the decked terrace and you’ll soon be mesmerised by the verdant mountains and vivid blue seawater. Equally blue is the swimming pool water where you can cool off during the day or simply relax on one of the shady sunbeds. There’s also a barbeque and outside table for alfresco dining.
Casa Solera is located on the hillside, in a quiet residential area surrounded by banana plantations and palm trees. It’s a 5-minute drive to the charming village of Arco da Calheta and is close to amenities including authentic Madeiran bars and restaurants. Madeira’s famous sandy beach, Praia da Calheta, is a 10-minute drive from the villa. It’s also ideally located for outdoor activity with levada walks, surfing and paragliding just some of the activities on offer nearby.
Casa Solera is located on the verdant hillside of Arco Da Calheta on the sunny southwest coats of Madeira. From the villa, narrow roads lead to nearby poncho bars and traditional restaurants while the charming village is a mere 5-minute drive away. Surrounded by banana plantations and overlooking a dramatic coastline, the stunning landscape is the real draw card here and with a number of levada hiking trails in the Calheta region you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to exploring the island’s beauty. Immerse yourself in the scent of eucalyptus while walking the Calheta to Ponta do Pargo levada or enjoy the wild flowers and streams along the Calheta to Prazeres trail.
If you want to feel the sand between your toes, head to Calheta’s beautiful, family-friendly beach. It’s just over 10-minutes drive away and is the prefect place for a fun day out. Swim in the calm seawater and enjoy a bite to eat at one of the restaurants dotted along the pretty promenade. If you want to try your hand at water sports head to the marina where there’s everything from paragliding to scuba diving and windsurfing on offer. Or for an unforgettable experience book a deep sea fishing trip or dolphin spotting tour.
In the 15th century Madeira was famed for its sugar cane and today the Calheta region is one of the few areas that still produces it. Stop at Engenho da Calheta, the sugar cane museum in Calheta and learn about the production process. You’ll see how the cane syrup is turned into honey and rum, and afterwards you can sample a selection of rums for yourself.
For a more contemporary setting, head to the Centro das Artes Casa das Mudas. Perched on a cliff top, the museum is filled with post-modern art and offers up spectacular views of Calheta beach below.
If you head east from Calheta you’ll find more natural beauty at Cascata dos Anjos, a waterfall cascading off a cliff and raining onto the coastal road below. Drive through it or park up and enjoy the sensation of walking through nature’s very own shower.
