Casa Barbeito Portugal

Tucked into the beautiful hillside of Arco Da Calhetta, on the southwest coast of Madeira, sits this smart, one-level villa.
Sleeping a maximum of four people, every room offers up glorious views of the sea and mountains making it the perfect place for couples or a family to relax.
Inside the décor is modern and neat. Glass sliding doors fill all rooms with uplifting light, while whitewashed walls and tiled flooring sweep through the open-plan living area creating a tranquil atmosphere. The well-equipped kitchen features modern appliances including a dishwasher and washing machine, and overlooks a dining table that invites sociability. But when the weather is good you’ll want to slide open the patio doors and eat alfresco at the terrace table. Come evening, the comfortable sofas are the ideal place for a film with the family, and there’s even a fireplace to keep things cosy on cooler nights. 
Leading off from the living space are two immaculate bedrooms featuring double beds. Soft furnishings add a splash of colour and you can gaze at the palm trees, garden and alluring blue swimming pool water from the comfort of your bed. Each room also has its own bathroom with shower.
From the bedroom, step outside onto the terrace. Overlooked by rolling hills, you can start the morning listening to the sound of the palm trees rustling in the breeze while soaking up the peaceful surroundings.
During the day, take it easy on a sun lounger, swim in the pool or cook some fresh fish on the barbeque. Alternatively, sit back on the comfortable garden chair and while away the hours staring at the ocean view.
The casa is set in a peaceful location, surrounded by banana plantations in the centre of Arco Da Calhetta. It is close to amenities including restaurants, bars and a pharmacy and is under 10-minutes drive from Madeira’s famous sandy beach, Praia da Calheta. It’s also ideally located for outdoor activity with levada walks, dolphin watching and paragliding just some of the activities on offer nearby.

In the 15th century Madeira was famed for its sugar cane and today the Calheta region is one of the few areas that still produces it. To learn about the production process stop at Engenho da Calheta, the sugar cane museum in Calheta. Here, you’ll see how the cane syrup is turned into honey and rum, and afterwards you can even sample a sweet selection of rums for yourself.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
