Get to know Madalena Sunset by Homie!
Located in one of the most tranquil and sunny areas of Madeira Island, this charming apartment is the ideal refuge for those seeking a holiday in contact with nature, without giving up proximity to the sea.
With capacity for up to 4 people (2 adults and 2 children), it is the perfect choice for families wishing to explore the best of the West side of the island.
Upon entering, we are greeted by an atmosphere of luminosity and serenity. The living room, spacious and sunny, invites relaxation after a day of discoveries, while the independent kitchen, fully equipped, awakens the pleasure of preparing everything from small meals to more elaborate dinners. Every detail has been thought out to make your stay comfortable and practical.
The room, decorated with simplicity and good taste, offers a double bed and generous storage, with a window that frames a serene view of the mountain, where the green extends to the foot and blends with the famous banana trees of the island. The modern, spacious and functional bathroom complements the comfort of the unit.
The true charm of this accommodation is revealed in its sea-view balcony, a perfect space to enjoy the sunrise, have breakfast outdoors or simply relax while contemplating the Atlantic.
The location is strategic: a few minutes from the village of Calheta, with its golden sandy beach, the Casa das Mudas Museum and the Sugar Cane Mill, and a short distance from Rabaçal, the starting point for exploring the iconic Laurissilva forest. For those who venture to the westernmost point, Ponta do Pargo reveals itself as a remote and tranquil place, while on the way east are Ponta do Sol and Ribeira Brava, with all local amenities, cafés and restaurants.
O Madalena Sunset by Homie is not just an apartment. It is an invitation. An invitation to breathe, to feel the serenity and natural beauty that only Madeira offers. It is the starting point for creating unique memories, with family or among friends, in one of the most enchanting regions of the island.
Since 2017, we have been receiving travellers from all over the world on our beloved Madeira Island, with the commitment to provide memorable experiences and excellent service.
We started as Madeira Sun Travel, a name that reflected the sun, comfort, and welcoming spirit that has always guided us.
Over time, we realised that we wanted to go further: more proximity, more authenticity, more connection.
This is how Homie was born. More than a new name - a new way of being. Each stay is thought out in detail to be special and welcoming.
Each house has its own story. And each guest is received like an old friend.
Beyond comfort and hospitality, we also provide, upon request, additional services such as car rental, activity bookings, personalised experiences and much more - all so that you can enjoy Madeira to the fullest.
Be a traveller looking for a special spot or a homeowner seeking someone to care for your home with dedication, you are in the right place.
Homie - Your home away from home, on the beautiful island of Madeira

Clean accommodation with comfortable bed and good wet room style shower in the bathroom. Very good fish restaurant and bar within walking distance. Good location to visit local areas like Calheta where there's a beach and supermarket and good roads to places further west like Ponta do Pargo, Jardin do Mar. Drive to Funchal 25 minutes.
