The Casas Maravilha, located in Arco da Calheta, are a charming property designed for those seeking tranquillity and direct contact with nature.
This true oasis invites you to slow down, rest and enjoy the enveloping serenity, far from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Here you will find a welcoming and harmonious environment, with various common areas ideal for relaxing — from reading nooks and social spaces to solariums and small contemplation areas in the garden. Fruit trees, plants, and flowers compose this idyllic setting, creating the perfect place for those who wish to reconnect with nature in its purest state.
During your stay, you will be able to enjoy a communal swimming pool, perfect for leisure and relaxation moments, and a fully equipped laundry, also for common use, for greater convenience. Parking on the property is subject to availability, but, as it is a quiet rural area, it is easy to park in the vicinity.
Among the various accommodations at Casas Maravilha, the Baú stands out as a small refuge where comfort and charm meet.
This chalet was designed to accommodate up to two people and offers everything you need for a relaxing stay: a double bed with a private bathroom and a fully equipped, practical and functional kitchen.
Outside, you will find a dining area with a barbecue and a private leisure space, ideal for enjoying moments in the open air, surrounded by nature.
The Arco da Calheta is known for its mild climate, the natural beauty that surrounds it and the hospitality of its people. Despite being located in the high zones of the municipality, in a few minutes by car you can reach the centre of Calheta village, where you will find supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, the Casa das Mudas Museum and the white sand beach. At Calheta marina, you can still experience unique activities, such as whale watching and various nautical activities.
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 who will care for your home with dedication, you are in the right place.
