Description

Featuring a stunning vaulted open-plan living area with superb views over the infinity pool to the very large mature garden and sea, this very private villa in Madeira will appeal to anyone looking for a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the Madeira countryside and sun.

Lounge in the pergola covered veranda or around the swimming pool enjoying the beautiful views over the garden and sea, or spend some quiet time in the hammock in the garden watching the sunset.

Three bedrooms and three bathrooms and a new high quality contemporary kitchen bring you all the comforts you may need, and the large, covered barbecue will certainly be the place that brings everyone together.

The large, vaulted living area is the centre point of Garden Paradise. The two separate sitting areas and a circular dining table all overlook the infinity pool and wonderful sloping garden. Large sliding floor to ceiling doors open to the pergola covered veranda.
Behind the living area is the new contemporary and fully equipped kitchen, the third bathroom with jacuzzi bath and the laundry. The side door leads to the covered barbecue and onward to the private parking area.
To the side is the master bedroom with en-suite that also opens to the front veranda. Wake up in the morning to that beautiful view of the garden and sea!
On the first floor are the two additional bedrooms with a jack and jill shower room in between.

There is a beautiful marina and a good choice of bars and restaurants, a handful of small shops, a good branded supermarket, a bank and chemist.
Centro das Artes Casa da Mudas is a new centre located at the edge of a cliff overlooking the sea and was built to host superb art exhibitions, musical performances and other events.

Funchal is an easy 45-minute drive away, and to the airport takes around 55 minutes.

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.

    Dear Charlotte, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you found our house beautiful and pleasant to live in. The magnificent garden and incredible view of the sea are indeed highlights, and we're thrilled that you loved your stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable experience in the future. Warm regards, António
    We hebben een heerlijk verblijf gehad. Alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig. Dalila is ontzettend behulpzaam, vriendelijk en goed bereikbaar. Tip van iemand anders om vaatwastabletten en wasmiddel mee te nemen was behulpzaam. De inrichting van het huis begint wel hier en daar aan vervanging toe te zijn als deze prijs gehanteerd blijft. Echter niets waardoor ons verblijf verstoord werd. Onze huurauto was te laag om over de drempel naar de oprit te komen. Verder een fijne locatie om van alles te zien en te ondernemen. Kortom een zeer prettig verblijf gehad.

    Thank you for your kind words about our property!
    Fantastic stay. Garden and pool in an unexpected heatwave was ideal and with a social area around the pool was perfect for the family to reconnect. Air conditioning was also a god send and made our stay incredibly comfortable. Only a very minor tip would be to leave a little more washing up liquid, scourers, bin liners and loo rolls…but this is very minor. Otherwise an incredible stay and very relaxing. Thank You.

    Dear Yin, Thank you for reviewing your stay at Garden Paradise. We are glad to hear that you had a fantastic stay and that the garden/pool area was a plus during this heatwave and perfect for the family to reconnect. Regarding the tip, a starter kit is provided for the first two days and if needed guests may purchase more of the items that they are missing. We look forward to host you again in Madeira. Kind Regards, António
    We really enjoyed our stay. The villa and the garden is awesome, and you have everything you need there. You need a rental car to get to the sightseeing spots, markets, and restaurants. A lot of sightseeing spots are reachable within 30 - 40 minutes by car. Dalila is great, friendliy and has always recommedations for you. We really enjoyed our stay at the Villa!

    Thank you for your kind words about Garden Paradise!
    The Garden Paradise villa definitely lives up to its name! The garden is absolutely spectacular, you could almost compare it to a botanical garden. We lived outside for most of our stay, enjoying the pool and the view of the sea some 500 meters below. The house itself is very spacious, our two teenage sons each had a room of their own, there are three bathrooms and a large kitchen. The living area is very bright and offers great views of the garden and the sea. Some of the furniture could be replaced, as it looks a bit worn out. But that's being facetious, as you will find everything you need and more to spend a great time and feel at home. The area aroung Prazeres offers great opportunities for walks and expeditions. You can start a levada walk 1.5km from the house, or hike down to Jardim do Mar if the footpath is not closed. All things considered, we can recommend staying at Garden Paradise. It will be hard to find a more appealing location in Madeira for the same price.

    Dear Franca, Thank you for reviewing your stay at Garden Paradise. We are glad to hear that Garden Paradise lived to the expectations and that you managed to enjoy the outdoor area and facilities, specially with your two younger ones. Also that Prazeres area did not disappoint and it was a perfect spot for hikes and to explore the surrounding areas such as Jardim do Mar. We look forward to host you again in Madeira. Kind Regards, António
    Das Haus sieht genauso aus wie auf den Fotos. Die Lage ist ruhig und extrem schön - alleine der Meerblick! Der Pool war ein großes Plus!

    Kan ikke anbefalede denne bolig nok. Vil klart anbefalede den hvis man har en bil, dog er der et par restaurant, indkøbsmuligheder og vanderture i gå afstand.

    Thank you for your kind words about Garden Paradise!
    This property certainly as the wow factor. The house is spacious and beautifully designed and the garden is just stunning. The garden has ocean views and lots of lovely seating spots dotted around the garden including a comfy hammock. The house has almost everything you'll need, but a top tip is to bring your own dishwasher tablets and washing tablets if you're planning on using the dishwasher or washing machine. We also could find any bin bags so used shopping bags. Minor things, but it would have been helpful to know in advance. We adored this house and garden and would highly recommend it.

Kind Regards, António
    Nice villa with a great garden, from which you can see sunset over the see. In nearby village you can find small cafe or shop.

    Thank you very much for your comments.

    This place is pure magic. By far the best Airbnb we have stayed at. You'd be hard pressed to find a better host than Delila, she helped us with everything we asked for and made us feel like locals on this incredible island. Don't think twice about booking this place if you find an availability!

    Dear Nawaf, Thank you for reviewing your stay at Garden Paradise. We are happy that you found this gem in the middle of Prazeres and that Dalila was an amazing host, accommodating all your requests. We look forward to have you back in December. Kind Regards, António

    Spacious and comfortably modern. We loved the beautiful garden and pool. So relaxing! Great view of the sea! The barbecue with roof cover came in handy when it was raining heavily. Well fitted kitchen, comfy beds and the big tv with Apple Tv was a plus. A special thanks to the super helpful Dalila who checked us in and gave us plenty of tips for good restaurants, hikes and taxi service. Altogether a fantastic experience!
