Quinta Falcoes, luxury villa, sleeps 8, stunning sea views, heated pool

The villa has stunning views of the sea and mountains. It was built to a luxury specification and the architect has done a wonderful job, taking advantage of the views by designing a 4 bedroom villa which fits perfectly in the land entitled ' Sitio dos Falcoes' (site of the falcons) and creating all 'rooms with a view'. The villa has 3 double rooms & 1 twin with comfortable beds and pillows, duvets, blankets, built in wardrobes and wonderful views of the sea. The villa has 4 bathrooms, two are en-suite, one family bathroom and an additional w/c room. The villa has a sociable open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room area with amazing views of the sea. The kitchen is well equipped with dishwasher, fridge/freezer (incl. ice-maker), hob and electric fan oven. On the veranda is a large eight seater table and a large BBQ. The Cinema / Games Room provides either a haven to escape from the sun, entertainment on rainy days or a venue for after-dinner contests.
On the pool veranda you are surrounded by tropical plants while the kestrels, buzzards and falcons that gave the villa its name circle and hunt. At night the starry skies are amazing. The villa has internet access / WiFi.
Within 20-30 minutes drive you can be at a sandy beach or hiking along a levada in the rainforests, taking a whale and dolphin viewing trip at sea or game fishing. While there are great restaurants a short drive away, we think the best view is from our dining tables and the huge, well equipped BBQ is great for cooking local fish or skewered steak (the local speciality of espetada).

Better than the pictures
We had a great stay at this gorgeous accomadation. The pictures do not do it justice. The view from the top level of the property were very special....we watched the sunset many times. The pool was a good size as were the bedrooms and barthrooms. The villa was a great place to visit all key viewpoints, lavada walks (we did PR1, PR11, PR 6, and the hard part of PR19, which is close to the villa), dolphin watching from Funchal marina. Calheta beach, the natural pools at Seixal, the lighthouse and Paul do Mar. The local supermarket by the petrol station had all the food and basics you would need. The cafe on the site also had a bakery selling delicious bread rolls and egg tarts. It sold egg tarts and coffee for 1.5 euros!!! I would fully recommend a stay at this villa. Thanks to John and Virginia, we have all fallen in love with Madeira and would be happy to visit again.

Lovely House in Madeira
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this excellent villa. The weather was a bit hit and miss but we were still able to use the pool as it is heated. The house is spacious with a very useful games room that kept the kids entertained. There is plenty to do locally and the house is a good base for trips across the island.

Fantastic stay
Quinta Falcoes is located in a quieter part of Madeira which was exactly what we were looking for. The stunning photos don't even do this villa justice. It's in an absolutely beautiful location and feels very private in that the pool area isn't directly overlooked by other houses. The views of the sea cliffs on a daily basis from the house and pool area were inspirational. Internet was reliable and fast. Jon and Virginia were gracious hosts and quick to reply when we reached out with any questions. We would absolutely visit Madeira and stay at Quinta Falcoes again in a heartbeat.

Great family stay
Stayed here with parent, adult siblings and our 8m old- whole age range. Really enjoyed; - the views. It's like being on a ship with uninterrupted ocean views (though was quite cloudy some days so consider the season you're going) - the space. Baby loved crawling around and we all had enough space to retreat if maxed out socially - games room especially variety of DVDs, games and books There were some very last minute changes to the family holiday and hosts were reachable, thanks for that. I found the drives to various places on the island hit and miss as it was often ~1hr drive depending where you're going. Sometimes it worked perfectly with baby's nap and other times it was pretty challenging so a consideration for anyone who wouldn't want much driving.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful villa We were two families staying together with 2 kids (10,12 year old) We had an absolutely wonderful time! The pool was great, stunning views and comfortable house. We travelled all over the island for hikes, restaurants and activities easily and always appreciated coming back to the villa to enjoy the stunning views. There is a great coffee roastery about 15 minutes away by the lighthouse we really enjoyed going to. We hope to be back!

Probably one of the best view in the world!
We had some small issues because of a storm which hit the island on the night of our arrival but except for this (which was clearly not under the owners’ control) everything was great. Jon was very reactive to our requests and solved everything he could immediately. The view from the pool and from all the rooms is simply amazing and just this is worth the trip!

Quiet place with Spectacular view!
We had two couples and the house was very spacious for us. The house will accommodate a large family very well, since it has several floors and many bathrooms. It was very clean and beds were very comfortable. Plenty of towels and pool towels. Local housekeeper was very easy to reach and very responsive. This is a quiet area with beautiful views of the Atlantic west. A car is needed since there is not much nearby as far as groceries and restaurants. The pool is a nice feature and very clean, but the air temperature was a bit too cool for swimming. It would have been wonderful in the summer! Owners Jon and Virginia were very quick to respond with booking and questions. We would highly recommend this place and would love to return.

Beautiful location.
Beautiful home with an amazing view. Quiet Village. The owner's were very responsive and provided lots of tourist information. Having a couple more basic amenities provided (knives, garbage bags, spices etc.) and some information on weathering big storms in the home would have made this a five star stay. Overall we did enjoy ourselves and would recommend the property. Loved Madeira.

A delightful property with an amazing view. Gorgeous pool that we used every day. So useful to have the games room when it got a bit too hot to be outside. We received a very comprehensive welcome pack giving us lots information on the property, days out and restaurants in the area. We had a wonderful holiday and are sure to be back.

Beautiful home with a breathtaking view!
I’d highly recommend coming to Madeira and staying at this property. The home is very modern and has one of the most spectacular views on the island. Very quick 15 min drive to Calheta where there is everything that you need. John and Virginia are great hosts and have local housekeepers around to help with anything needed. Great experience.

Stunning Views
Really wonderful villa, very spacious and the views were just stunning. The owners were very accommodating and helpful. You definitely need a car if you want to explore Madeira but I'd be happy to just stay near the pool next time! It is a little far out from most tourist attractions i.e funchal was over an hour, Porto Moniz was a 30 minute drive but if you are happy to drive then this is the villa for you. Thanks again.

Wonderful Stay
We stayed at Quinta Falcoes for 11 days while we explored Madeira and enjoyed every minute of our stay. The views from the house inside and out were incredible. If it were too cool to sit outside, we could sit inside and see the ocean as well. View is very important to me and this house satisfied that need for me magnificently. The house was clean and the bed was comfortable. Since it was just the two of us, we only used a small portion of the house, but it felt very cozy and warm. The house was a great base for exploring the western and middle sections of Madeira, but the eastern portion of the island seemed a little far. The main roads were actually great, but when you got off the main highways, getting around was a much slower process. We love to hike and there were tons of hikes within an hours drive of the house. We cooked a lot of our meals at the house and the kitchen was very well equipped to do that. We loved our time in Madeira and the house played a significant role in making our time so enjoyable. Thank you so much for opening your house to us - we so appreciated it.

Lovely location,Beautiful property, fantastic pool
We took two adults with disabilities with us and we found that the people of Madeira were very welcoming. We would all highly recommend that everyone goes on the safari that covers parts of the island very interesting and guide fantastic. We did a lot during our week stay, cable car, caves, buggies, safari, boat trip. All very good. Two things that would of made our holiday easier was directions to Vila need updating and a small welcoming pack would be of use as arrived when shops had closed. Other than that fantastic holiday had by all and hope to return again soon thank you so much xx
