With a privileged tranquil location close to Prazeres, overlooking the rolling countryside and the sea, this beautiful air-conditioned new villa is finished to the highest standards in a contemporary décor and offers a fantastic inside/outside open plan living area and terrace with pool deck overlooking the surrounding countryside and sea.
Refurbished and extended from an old stone cottage, it features such luxuries as en-suite shower-rooms, a high-tech kitchen with built-in wine chiller, smart TV with a Netflix account for guest's use and a separate games/leisure room, allowing guests to experience the great lifestyle that its name implies.

Madeira
Some seven hundred kilometres west of the African coast,
Madeira is a stunning mountainous emerald island, lapped by the
warm waters of the Gulf Stream. The first island to be discovered
by the Portuguese navigators in 1419, Madeira became an important
resting place on the long trip to the new world. From these humble
beginnings, the holiday trade was formed and this spectacular
island, which used to be the favourite place of the rich and
famous, is now the preferred choice of all sorts of visitors, from
those seeking year-round warm temperatures to nature lovers and
sightseers, sports and active enthusiasts of all ages. Culture,
history, stunning nature, a myriad of sea and land activities,
added to a great foodie scene means Madeira has something for
everyone. No matter where you go on the island you are rewarded by
fabulous scenery, tiny villages and friendly people. With a
population of over 100,000, Funchal is not only the capital, but
also the 'heart' of Madeira and home to many of the islanders. This
makes it a busy, chic, cosmopolitan and fun city, full of shops,
shopping centres, bars, cafés and a great variety of restaurants
and entertainment; a vibrant, cosmopolitan town where historic
splendour and breath-taking natural beauty combine with a
thoroughly modern atmosphere.

Reviews
Stunning place! We spent thre slightly over a week in December. Positives: -buitiful, tastefully designed house that offers lots of space and fantastic amenities (pool, game room, outdoor grill) - easy to find and access, has generous parking space - very well equipped, it has absolutely everything you might need - amazing view! - some nice walking paths in the area and short drive away from some picturesque locations and levada walks Negatives: - it's not an ideal location if you don't have a car (e.g. no grocery shops in the walking distance) - weather in December is not great in this location as it's up on the hill and often gets covered by clouds Overall, fabulous accomodation. Highly recommend, especially for family holidays
Sehr schöne Unterkunft mit beheizbaren Pool.
Can highly recommend this villa operated by Our Madeira. Extremely well equipped, very clean, well thought out welcome/starter pack in kitchen and shower gel/shampoo provided in all 3 bathrooms. Communications were excellent/quick, directions from the airport the best laid out I've had from an Airbnb and check in/out easy. Nice location with good views although we found the weather in the west of the island to be slightly less reliable than in the east nearer Funchal. Perhaps it was just the time of year(Sept) but its not a big island and we found it easy to drive to sunny locations on cloudy days at the villa.
Fabuleuse villa! Design élégant, bel aménagement, équipement de pointe, paysage magnifique, le calme d'une campagne authentique. Nous y avons passé un séjour enchanteur.
Very nice house ! we loved our stay! Perfect if you want a relaxed holiday.
Sehr schöne und moderne Unterkunft. Tolle Aussicht auf die Berge und das Meer. Kommunikation und Schlüsselübergabe war problemlos. Nur zu empfehlen !
We had an amazing stay at Belle Vista, the villa is spacious, clean, private and set in a remote location in the mountains which is exactly what we wanted. The air felt so clean. You will need a car or take a taxi to reach any shops or restaurants, although there is a small bar in walking distance, but in terms of peace, quiet, views and escapism, this location has it all. The Villa is appointed to a high standard and is well maintained. Feels more like a hotel in the bedrooms and bathrooms than a private home. The outdoor space and pool was perfect and the views are incredible. You are not overlooked. The only thing I would say; just to be very honest about the advertising of this villa. The photographs you see on Airbnb are taken on a flattering wide angle lens! Maybe I should've clocked that! But when we arrived, the pool was definitely smaller (approx 10m) than expected, along with the garden space! Obviously this applies to the villa too, but that is not to say the villa isn't spacious, it is, but if you are looking to swim lengths then this pool isn't for you! You will also have to leave 300Euros in cash for a deposit when you check in, so make sure you have that cash before you arrive. We've never had to do this before on Airbnb, so I think it is useful for you to know in advanced. We were a family of 4 each with our own large comfortable AC room, but the villa definitely sleeps 6 comfortably. We cooked nearly every night and the kitchen is equipped to a good standard and clean. Nice extras such a welcome hamper, big towels for bath and pool and Nespresso coffee machine, just make sure you take a stash of pods, we struggled to find these in supermarkets! We would love to go back! Thank you for hosting us, we had the most relaxing family holiday. Madeira itself is beautiful and friendly.
A perfect oasis for our family, great for young kids.
Amazing villa and pool very modern and clean everything you could want from a villa, not far from a local beach if you have small children, a couple of local supermarkets, view was wonderful to wake up to every morning,very peaceful and relaxing looking at the hills and sea in the distance, would recommend it to anyone as it's a fantastic villa.
Wunderschöne Villa im sonnigen Calheta. Tolles Preisleistubgsverhältnis.
Nice place
Beautiful modern villa in an amazing setting with a stunning view! We loved our stay at the villa, we had everything we needed, the kitchen was very well equipped, the furniture is high quality and modern. It was even warm enough to go swimming in the pool in December; it was heated to 26 degree. We definitely want to come back.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Bella Vita Villa. Everything was extremely clean and extraordinary well equipped. The villa itself was really spacious and luxurious with a breathtaking view. There's no reason you shouldn't book this villa for your stay in Madeira :) Bonus: There's a very well trained cat at the villa which we named Skrt. We miss him already! Kind regards, Nicolas
It's a magical place : everything is perfect, it's beautiful, nothing is missing ! We really had a wonderful time thanks to the BellaVita villa ! I highly recommend this place, you will not regret it !
Ich mochte es fast nicht verraten: Aber das Haus ist einsame Spitze! Design sehr ansprechend, die Ausstattung komplett, vielfältig, sehr hochwertig, sehr bequem, gemütlich, absolut Stand der Technik und beyond. Im Juli 2020 fast alles noch neu, Pool tool, Aussicht sowieso, Weinkühlschrank, Playsstation, tolle "analoge" Spiele in neu, nicht abgegriffelt, liebe Katze sehr zutraulich, Klimanalage funktioniert einfach und zuverlässig, viel Liebe zum Detail. Wir haben die Zeit sehr genossen und sind dafür sehr dankbar. Noch nie war eine Ferienunterkunft schoener als unser Zuhause, dieses mal war das der Fall!
