3 bedroom villa and pool, Jardim do Mar, breathtaking view

A 10-minute drive from Calheta, Jardim do Mar is a small, romantic seaside village with panoramic sea views. It is exceptional for Madeira because it is close to sea level and most of its houses are accessible by a labyrinth of pretty paths. Its small hotel, restaurant and 2 bars are close to the villa, from where you can also easily reach the promenade and the pebble beach.

You can enjoy both the furnished and covered patio by the pool for outdoor dining with a breathtaking view of the ocean and the cliff, and the upstairs balcony for the magnificent sunsets and the noise of waves. All bedrooms and lounges have spectacular views. Downstairs are the large open plan, the spacious kitchen and the living areas with 4 large sliding windows leading to the outside. Upstairs are the bedrooms with two bathrooms plus a second living room with equipped bar and access to the balcony. The equipment is standard luxury - air conditioning in the rooms, fully equipped kitchen, ice maker, satellite TV, large outdoor BBQ, etc. Its position on the edge of the cliff is magnificent.
Jardim do Mar: Jardim is a historic and unspoiled village in Madeira. It is small and compact - only a few hundred meters from end to end - and its highest point is approximately 50 meters above sea level. The village road leads to the parking lot and also down one side of the village. The center of the village has a pretty square, a small hotel and a beautiful church.

Most of the villagers reach their houses on foot through the cobbled streets from the square. These alleys are interspersed with small plots for growing bananas, grapes and vegetables and many houses have pretty gardens with bougainvilleas and hibiscus. The villa is at the end of the village with breathtaking views of the sea and the huge cliffs, facing west on the side of the sunsets over the ocean. Going down the lane at the bottom of the villa you reach a pebble beach on one side and on the other side the start of the beautiful walk along the sea and around the village and the pier.

Activities: the west of Madeira is very unspoiled with spectacular landscapes. The walks on the "levada" are exceptional and generally easy (some can be uneven!). The hikes exist for all levels of walkers. A car is necessary to explore the island.

It is possible to organize boat trips and even big game fishing from the marina near Calheta, where there is also an art gallery. Calheta has the best sandy beach in Madeira. Several open-air sea pools, notably in Porto Moniz, are available. There is an impressive cable car ride from the top of the cliff just off the west coast road to Porto Moniz.

Further on there are many botanical gardens, museums and a magnificent cathedral in Funchal. There is an 18 hole golf course approximately 45 minutes from the villa and a second 27 hole course further east. Ferry trips from Funchal to the neighboring island of Porto Santo can be arranged in Calheta.

Staying in the villa: The owners of the villa stay there frequently and are in regular contact with the two English speakers who look after the clients and the property. The house is maintained (cleaning, swimming pool, garden) before each arrival and the reception of customers is organized on their arrival in the village. On arrival, you will be welcomed in the parking lot and taken to the villa.

The villa is in the village, but on a cliff edge, and therefore very quiet. Its panoramic views of the sea are breathtaking. The only sound you can hear is from the sea.

There are excellent walking guides available in the villa and we provide our suggestions on the most beautiful places to visit near the village.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned villa, which features a private pool. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Enjoy the recreation opportunities such as an outdoor pool or make use of other amenities including barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access.

Another wonderful stay at this lovely villa
This was our third stay and a first rate experience from communication with the owners to the on-site support from Chris and team. Located in Jardim do Mar, the jewel in the crown of Madeira, it's a joy to hear the ocean, the kestrels and watch the sunsets. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Surpassed expectations
This property is absolutely breathtaking, when we booked we knew it would be amazing but the reality of the property and the location is so much more than the listing shows. I was extremely impressed with the property itself, so much bigger and better than the pictures portray. The views from the property are out of this world, absolutely stunning. Sleeping with the door open listening to the waves is something else. I cannot rate this property enough, Jardim Do Mar is beautiful, whilst we did explore some of Madeira I would have been content staying put. We will absolutely be looking to return we have fallen in love with Madeira and this house, I fear for any future bookings elsewhere as I don’t think they will live up to this. Sinply amazing

Classy villa
This is our third stay at this wonderfully located villa. We love Jardim do Mar, and this villa is our No 1 choice for holidays in Madeira. If it had some sort of solar powered pool heating it would be even better. Other than that, it is pretty much perfect, clean, lovely views, spacious and really quite classy.

The town and view are hard to beat. Chris the onsite host was incredible. Kitchen was great and well equipped, but it would have really been nice to have some things like paper towels and cooking oil already there since the shop in town is limited. Bathrooms need to be updated, especially with most other rentals in town being newly updated, these are dated and wearing out, things like the shower door seals are all split and degrading. Shower heads are awful. The washer and dryer are pretty worn, dirty and rusted, but they did work ok for us. The house could really use a deep cleaning, key areas like kitchen and bathrooms were clean but had mold in other parts of the bathroom, walls are dirty and the blinds throughout have dirty handprints all over them like someone grabbed them with BBQ sauce on their hands. There was also a severe ant problem in the house. Kitchen and bathrooms were full of small black ants, all food of any kind had to be kept in the oven or fridge and it made food prep a challenge. There were few towels, and they were all very thin, though there were two great pool towels. The pool was great, lots of chairs inside and outside with nice cushions. We loved that there are so many doors that can be fully opened to the outside. Images are a bit dated, there are a couple more houses beside it now and a large crane blocking much of the view building a restaurant just below. Overall, I would still rent it again and had a great experience despite the minor issues.

Great property; great views. Good location. The listing could do more to make clear that you cannot park at the house. You need to find a parking space in the village and walk c10 minutes to the house. The village is lovely so this would not generally be an issue but one of our party has a bad leg. Expect around an hour's drive to most tourist destinations. A welcome pack (e.g. milk, bread, coffee) would have been appreciated - especially because our flight was on a Sunday and delayed so that we did not land until after the shops shut. A folder with guidance is also recommended. Btw, note that the lava tubes at St Vincente are currently closed and have been for several years - due to re-open in 2024.

This house has the most wonderful views. Whichever room you are in you are treated to sea or cliff views. The village of Jardim do Mar is very pretty and peaceful. We had a very restful ten days here. Easy check in. Good contact. Everything is spotlessly clean. Kitchen is well stocked. Everything was just perfect. Joes bar is just a short walk away and was a lovely place to eat or drink. All in all a great holiday.

Magnificent
We really enjoyed our two weeks at this beautiful property set in the cliff side of a delightful village. Comfortable and spacious with outstanding views from all of the windows. Sitting outside with a cold beer watching the sunsetting over the Atlantic was particualrly memorable. Thank you to Cecile and Nicolas for letting us use the villa. We loved it so much we are returning in the Spring. Our only recommendation for improvements would be to update the web site description for the route given the long diversion needed due to unfinished roadworks.

Glorious location, with spacious and uplifting accommodation. Pool delightful and sunsets most memorable. Witnessed the ‘Green Flash’ for the first time ever ( I am 65). Neighbourhood mostly quiet and proximity of Joe’s Bar a benefit. Could do with advice to bring wash powder and washing up liquid ! Car essential. Chris most helpful !

Glorious vistas, fantastic house
Very well equipped and in a superb location. A truly lovely house, the views from the huge windows were great, only bettered by stepping outside onto the terraces. The pool was popular with my teenagers who ventured a swim in February even though the pool isn't heated. The location is superb, with easy access to the promenade in Jardim do Mar, to Joe's Bar and nearby car parking. There is a useful trolley to tote shopping and recycling down the picturesque alleyways. Jardim do Mar is our favourite place in Madeira, and we have visited Madeira in February about a dozen times and reckon this is our favourite house. Do go there, but not when we want to!

Spectacular scenery and beautiful villa
We were very happy with the villa. The view is stunning and the villa itself was very comfortable. A great base from which to explore the island. On the days we decided to take it easy, the pool area was great for sunbathing while watching the surfers or just enjoying the view. We actually thought that below the villa was a road, but actually it is a quiet pedestrian boulevard that we used for running. Chris, who looked after the place, was very responsive to our question. Top marks for everything!

Heel mooie ligging, ervaring verpest door bouwwerf naast de woning
Zeer mooie woning, alle nodige comfort is aanwezig, zeer ruim en aangenaam ingericht. Continu de zee horen is een pluspunt, ook dat de woning in een pittoresk, autovrij dorpje is gelegen is positief. Wij vonden het jammer dat het uitzicht in de slaapkamers verstoord werd door een bouwkraan. 's Morgens om 8u gewekt worden door bouwvakkers die aan de slag gaan, was een domper op ons vakantiegevoel. Jammer, want zonder deze werf, is dit een aangewezen plek om een top vakantie te beleven.

Ferienhaus in Traumlage
Das Ferienhaus ist wunderbar im Hang gelegen und bietet einen spektakulären Blick über den Ozean, welcher sich laut tosend unterhalb ans Ufer drückt. Der Ort Jardim do mar gehört unserer Meinung nach zu den schönsten Orten der Insel Madeira. Dass man vom Parkplatz aus nur zu Fuß durch die engen Gassen zum Haus gelangt - empfanden wir als charmant. Für geübte Wanderer ist das kein Problem. Unterhalb des Hauses wird derzeit eine Gaststätte gebaut: vom Baulärm haben wir zwischen Sturm und Brandung nur wenig gehört. Innen findet sich eine geräumige Küche, die viel Platz für gesellige Runden bietet. An der Ausstattung müsste mal wieder ein wenig gearbeitet werden. Die meisten Geräte funktionieren nur noch einigermaßen und auch das Geschirr ist nicht mehr ganz so fit. Die Betten waren für uns alle bequem. Wem es zu kalt wurde, der hatte im Schrank wärmere Decken zur Verfügung. Hinter der Terrasse gab es einen offenen Grillofen. Dort konnte man sich die phantastisch frischen Fische zubereiten, die wir uns immer wieder im Pinge Doce in Calheta besorgt haben. Am Anreisetag war Chris sofort zur Stelle und hat uns bei allen Fragen geholfen. Er ist die gute Seele des Hauses und sehr nett. Er kümmert sich auch um den Pool, der hier natürlich auch noch erwähnt werden soll. Anfang März war es etwas zu kühl für längere Badezeiten - im Sommer ist der Pool aber definitiv ein Highlight des Hauses.

Wir hatten einen tollen Urlaub. Vorab war die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter schon super. Bei der Ankunft wurden wir von Chris am Parkplatz empfangen. Der Weg zum Haus ist nicht lang, ein paar Treppen auf und ab. Das Haus selber ist gepflegt und top ausgestattet. Wir haben uns ab der ersten Minute gleich wohl gefühlt. Einmal pro Woche werden die Handtücher und die Bettwäsche gewechselt. Die Umgebung ist traumhaft, wir kommen gerne wieder! Es war ein sehr toller Urlaub auf Madeira!!!
