About this property

Astonishing apartment in a very quiet, charming and rural area of Madeira

The 'House Fontes' was designed and constructed in general for all types of clients being them passionate about nature, landscapes, hiking, trekking, water sports or just for a relaxing stay in a very charming and quiet area of Calheta.

Having an area of approximately 90m2 this studio flat has also an esplanade to be the envy of any nature and landscaping lover and also a place where we can sun bath any time of the day or just to assist to one of the best sun sets on the island. The spaces are shared with different combinations of light and environments ranging between modern and rustic styles.


The vineyards with its own wine press and cellar : Being this apartment surrounded by beautiful vineyards to make the famous Madeira Wine and cultivated terraces its geographical location is also perfectly accessible to all kinds of shops, restaurants, bars, local museums and a wonderful sandy beach just a few minutes away not to mention as well one of the best preserved and natural sites for walking and hiking trails in the whole island of Madeira.

Looking for a walk?: As Mountain Guide and native of this fascinating island, I gathered several themes and activities to offer and share with the customer such as: doing private guiding or advising you in doing short or long walking distances in your mountains or famous Levadas, transfers to take and to bring back after the walks, renting a car for one or more days, mountain biking, whale/dolphins or bird watching, jeep expeditions or even a tour around the island. Basically, my mission here is to provide you the most exciting and enjoyable holiday that you can have in Madeira!

About the host

Hosted by Bruno Fontes

Host profile image
I was born and raised in the Madeira and I work as a mountain guide. Being so, I can explain and show to my clients all the best tracks for walking /trekking in this magical Island.

Why they chose this property

With all my years of experience working and dealing with people from all Nationalities I decided to put together some ideas and contrasts and come up with ‘House Fontes’. Knowing Madeira almost like the palm of my hands I decided to construct my house here in Calheta because of the easy going style of living, from being preserved from big masses and her rural aspect and surrounding sceneries and views.

What makes this property unique

As unique benefit you’ll be able to share and to be part of the rural way of living of this town surrounded with cultivated gardens and a vineyard to make the famous Madeira Wine just in front of the house. Our main host will be our dog called ‘Jakie’ who definitely will come to see you every morning and every afternoon in the garden. In our house you can profit from the swing on the front porch, the pond in the garden with the waterfall and if you like cooking I’ll be able to use the entire aromatic herbs you can from our garden. On the top of it we’re offering you a trip on a jeep through Eucalyptus and Mimosa forests and on the tracks where you’ll never dare to go with a normal car. Just be ready for some sense of adventure and leave the rest for us!
