Vila Maria Quinta is an old family house. In 2012 we decided that we wanted to share this wonderful place with the world. So we renovated the vila and transformed the it into the five modern appartments they are today. The five apartments all cary their own name and each room is a little bit diferent but they all have their own bathroomsand kitchens! The Vila is a very tranquil place, especially the outdoor areas.
Casa do Palheiro is a spacious studio apartment that sleeps two people. The apartment includes a tv, a fully equiped kitchenette and an ensuite bathroom. The shared outside area's include a large terrace, outdoor cooking area. We also have a saltwater pool and a large forest garden that lies behind the house. While you walk through the garden the rest of the world simply seems to disappear, all you hear are the birds and the sound of the streaming water. Along the garden path there are many sitting area's where you can enjoy nature or read a book. With all the nature surrounding you, it will feel like you are miles away from civalization, where as in fact Calheta village is just around the corner, and it's beautiful beach is only 2 km away! Whe are also just 5 km away from Rabacal Valley, this is where some of Madeira's most famous walks start!
