Blue Sea Tower, Luxury Villa, Private Heated Pool. Panoramic Ocean view. Quiet

This CHARMING Villa commands an enviable location with stunning views over the Ocean. Newly renovated, the traditional features combine with contemporary facilities, to offer luxury spacious accommodation.
From the sweeping marble staircase to the full length upper Balcony, the property exudes space to relax, breathe and to enjoy the serenity of this peaceful village.
The Infinity Pool is the prime feature of the Villa, measuring a generous 10 metres by 4 metres, with depth from 1.2 metres to 1.5 metres. Heated all year. The Villa faces south, guaranteeing sun on the Pool from 10am until Sunset. Likewise, all rooms within the property enjoy the same South facing elevation and magnificent Ocean views.

OPEN PLAN living areas are light and spacious, and the Kitchen is fully fitted with all appliances including an Espresso machine and a generous variety of kitchen utensils. Space to relax is provided by three Sofas in the Lounge, 50" TV, DVD player. Internet speed of Mpbs 500/100. And the large Dining Table offers space to relax and enjoy the family meals.

UPSTAIRS three bedrooms offer comfort for up to 6 people. Custom made beds to our personal design, fitted with quality mattresses and Hotel style linens and Towels, guarantee a comfortable night's sleep. The bedrooms further benefit from large fitted wardrobes so that you may enjoy your holiday clutter free. The latest Air conditioning systems offer Heat or Cooling to suit the season, using Eco Air Heat Pump technology. The USB ports next to each bed allow convenience for everybody's gadgets.
The Master bedroom offers an en suite with spacious power shower and opening window. The Family bathroom offers another spacious power shower and opening windows. The bathrooms are complimented by an additional Ground floor bathroom with Toilet and wash basin. Hot Water is provided by an Eco Tank, again using the latest Air Heat Pump technology. Most electric is provided by the Islands Wind farms located on the plateau.

The POOL TERRACE and Gardens will be a delight for our Guests, and offer substantial additional facilities to enjoy. A large Granite table is provided for Al fresco dining, and a BBQ adjacent. Multi functional chairs that can be moved around as required. Sunbeds are provided for Guests to enjoy the sub Tropical climate, with generous sunshine and year round average daytime temperatures of 20c - 35c. When a Guest wishes to retreat from the Heat, the fitted shutters allow traditional control of sun, heat and airflow. Or the rear Courtyard under mature Palm Trees, allows a cooler retreat in the summer.

GARDEN. The Pool Terrace continues into a Pergoda covered Terrace overlooking the lawn and gardens below. Short staircases lead down to these additional spaces.
To one side is a large lawn area with formal gardens surrounding. To the other side is a wilder garden with native fruit trees and tropical plants. The maze path leading through this will be a delight for young children playing hide and seek. Or for Parents to retreat into the sunken garden. Next to the Maze garden is a Table Tennis Table and a large Chess set. Reliably designed to be suitable for the outdoors. Portuguese Azuelo Tiles decorate the spectator seating to one side. To the rear of this area is the secure parking for two cars, behind an electronic gate. Also offering peace of mind that children cannot wander accidentally into the road.

CALHETA is the prime Tourist area of Madeira and is on the less developed, Western side of the island. It consists of a cluster of villages. Located on the quieter side, Faja da Ovelha offers a peaceful location,but with convenient access 5 minutes away to join the recently extended Via Rapide.
From here it is convenient to start a days exploration of the island, or just to enjoy local attractions.
eg 5 minutes by car to the nearest quality Restaurants at Ponta do Pargo
OR 12/15 minutes to Calheta Marina, with its Beach, Restaurants and Water activities.
OR 5/6 minutes down to Paul do Mar with Harbour front Restaurants and beach
OR 6/7 minutes to Jardim do Mar with Restaurants and Beach.

Madeira has much to offer the visitor. From Levada walks to Whale & Dolphin watching. Volcanic caves to mountain peaks of 6200 feet overlooking the Ocean that surrounds Madeira. Historic Funchal or just a simply relaxing sun holiday.
The Villa has been fitted with the maximum Guest comfort in mind, whatever your choice of holiday. Madeira is a friendly place and foreign visitors are welcome.

NOTE
1. A car is essential
2. We recommend Guests to take out the cheap travel insurance that is available, to cover all concerns, to remove any financial stress form your holiday plans.

Simply Fantastic
The property is located on the west side of the island which we personally loved, this must be he quietest place on planet earth, so peaceful Lovely warm sunshine all week, ideally placed to explore the island and approx 45 minutes from Funchal which suited us Views are fantastic, the property is modern, clean a good size, good facilities, pool is superb (although 1 slight comment regards putting the pool cover back on, you need at least 2 people to do that and someone either needs to be in pool on the infinity side or walk along the edge which isn’t ideal, but hey I’m English I have to moan about something, it’s part of my makeup) Supermarkets approx 10 mins drive away All in all one of THE best villas we have ever stayed in, we’d love to return one day

5* Villa
My family of 6 stayed at this beautiful villa over May school half term. The communication including directions to the villa were great from Bob, clear and concise. On arrival at the villa we were all blown away at the quality and facilities the villa had to offer. The large heated pool was the highlight of the holiday and in constant use but in addition the table tennis table, chess set and French bowls were all great too. The kitchen facilities were 1st class and all meticulously clean. The beds were comfy and bathrooms well designed. My family had a brilliant stay and we're already talking about rebooking. A hire car is a must but we always have one as Maderia is so beautiful we love to tour the island with the maderia people so warm and friendly. 5 stars!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Although Bill is very helpful, there is room for significant improvement.
Wonderful views, good size accommodation and some good facilities available (chess, swimming pool, table tennis table). Bill was extremely helpful and prompt in providing instructions on how to get to the villa, outlining activities to do on the island, restaurants and being available for support with any queries. However: 1. Internet. An ongoing issue for our two week vacation. Failed to work on a number of days which impacted work, use of tv and personal appliances. 2. Kitchenware. Some crockery and cutlery filthy. Cutting board dirty with food. 3. Floor. Dirty in a number of places. 4. Swimming pool. Not filled fully. Plastic chemical pool container was broken and contained no pool cleaner. Overflow function not operating and lights in pool not working. Pool floor dirty. One pool umbrella broken. 5. Linen and towels. It’s advertised that both linen and towels are changed for residents who stay for two weeks. The towels were not and a couple of white ones were dirty on arrival. 6. Electronic gate. Periodically did not open automatically and needed to be opened manually. 6. Grass. Uncut and therefore not possible to play the game of croquet provided. Further comments could be made but this should suffice to emphasise the property is not as advertised, is not value for money and is not being managed effectively.

Very nice place
Thank you Bill for allowing us to stay in your Holiday home. It was very very nice. Very clean and all very new. The Tower is very grand and made us feel quite special. As you promised, the Sea view was excellent. The map directions were very good also, and it was very easy to find the Villa. We wanted a quiet and peaceful location and this suited our needs perfectly. We will definitely be back but for longer next time. Thank you again Walter

Fabulous Villa
We booked a short break in this Villa as part of a longer stay on Madeira. So we could be close to the Levada Nova da Calheta. The Villa is newly refurbished and has been prepared very nicely. The Owners have included a lot of detail including a large Chess set in the garden, which we loved. Nice comfortable beds after a long day walking on the Levadas. I forgot my Driving Licence, but Bill directed us to a Rental Agency who organized a copy from the DVLC website. This was really helpful. All in all a fabulous stay and we will definitely be back.

Lovely Villa
We stayed in February, and it is a lovely Villa. It is very traditional but has been tastefully refurbished to include all mod cons. The view is just amazing with sea views from every room. The swimming pool is very large. Even though it was February, we were able to swim most days. The daily temperature was between 20c up to 26c. Very nice. There is a mini Supermarket 6 or 7 minutes away in Prazares. Opposite the BP petrol station. It has most things you need, including fresh bread. On Bill's recommended list of Restaurants, is O Farolim at Ponta do Pargo. Only a few minutes away. We would recommend this place for anybody wanting a proper restaurant. We really enjoyed our stay, and would like to come back with family. Thanks to Bill, who is very quick with his responses.

Lovely Villa
We were a bit anxious about flights because of possible travel restrictions. But actually everything went very smoothly. We went through Madeira Airport in 15 minutes. Arrived at the Villa in 25c in February !! Brilliant. What a lovely Villa. Newly done up. Super Tower on the side that houses the staircase, with a very posh floor. We had everything we could possibly need. My favourite part was watching the Falcons sitting on the Balcony or Garden bannisters. They would appear every day. My wife spent hours dreaming, just looking at the Ocean. Bill was super quick with communications. After two years of lockdowns this was a brilliant holiday. Absolutely loved it. Cant wait to go back.

Wonderful stay
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful Villa very much and we will certainly remember it for a long time to come. Our young daughter was delighted with the maze garden to one side. The walls with curved pathways were the same height as her head, which she found fascinating to explore. The highlight is the pool, which we used almost every day. It was a wonderful time there. You can spend hours just looking at the Ocean. Thank you for this lovely stay!

Absolutely lovely villa, all newly done with a huge pool looking out over the ocean. We sat on the terrace in the evenings watching the sunset and looking for miles out across the sea. The villa was very spacious, all mod cons in the kitchen and air conditioning in every room. Super balcony upstairs making it feel really special, will definitely visit again with friends from our walking club.
