Casa Janaina Portugal

Casa Janaina is a vibrantly-toned two storey crimson home for 6 set within the colourful and bustling heart of Palheiro Village, Madeira, offering write-home-about views at every turn. 
Crafted in the local style, with pretty white porticos and sloping terracotta roofs, the elegant outdoor spaces include a pool with Roman steps and views across a tropical hillside to the sparkling Atlantic coast.
The interiors at Casa Janaina are airy and naturally restorative, with a vibe of understated luxury and light-filled ease. Open plan living offers a touch of a traditional home complete with fireplace, along with all creature comforts. Splashes of red offset the creamy neutral palette. 
Simple yet stylish, the dining and kitchen area is impeccably finished for the needs of a group, with top-grade appliances, while terrace access and the beckoning views feature wherever guests look. Preparing morning coffee overlooking the ocean, to wander out to the terrace will be a pleasure, or wandering out with a glass of wine as the sun softens over the flower-strewn hills.
The bedrooms offer chic style and restorative serenity, with unfussy design and quality of fittings – guests are assured tranquillity. Dining outside beneath the pergola sees a striking setting for an al fresco meal, with panoramic vistas showing the changing colours of a magnificent Atlantic sunset. 
Casa Janaiana is a feel-good home, hitting the right note between home-like and lavish; it is luminous with views and natural sunlight, airy and upbeat with a distinctive red exterior and laid-back, breezy interiors, perched in a prime spot with panoramic vistas.Casa Janaina is set within the heart of Palheiro Village in Madeira, perched in the hills atop the Atlantic ocean above Funchal this pretty spot offers sublime views and an effortless setting for a tranquil break. Golfing, beaches and amenities are all close by, while panoramic views of the ocean and hills bathed in wild flowers characterise this spot.
The estate itself comprises the 18 hole golf course, gym and spa, while Funchal is just a ten minute drive away. Madeira is known for its dramatic scenery and botanic gardens, offering a hikers’ paradise, through sun dappled mimosa-clad landscapes and volcanic soil, fertile with brightly sprouting blossom.  
The Levada dos Tornos between the Palheiro and Funchal municipal botanical gardens is a gentle walk for intermediates. Or, the Levada do Norte between the hill villages of Estreito de Câmara de Lobos and Nogueira takes visitors into the island’s main wine-producing region, a patchwork of vineyards that cling to sheer cliff faces. Known for its wilderness and natural beauty, a visit to the volcanic heart of Madeira is a must, taking a roller-coaster road to the summit of Pico do Arieiro, the third-highest peak, where a snack bar offers spectactular views of solidified lava and ash.
28 miles north-east of Madeira, guests can hop on a ten minute flight, or take a 2.5 hour ferry to the golden island of Porto Santo where the charming Vila Baleira, home to the Christopher Columbus Museum, serves as the capital and has a handful of restaurants.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
