The host and the staff make us feel at home. The view is amazing and Calheta is one of the best beaches in Madeira

From the moment we arrived until the day of departure, the hosts went above and beyond to ensure a memorable and comfortable stay. For Christmas they brought us cake and wine, and also a bunch of delicious fruit from Madeira. In addition to the hospitality, the property itself was a gem. But I want to mention that the terrace on the pictures was not from our apartment, it was shared with other units. So the photos may be misleading.
Overall, our experience here was fantastic.
This small hotel in the west of Madeira offers a restaurant, a bar and panoramic views of the ocean. It is 100 metres from the beach and close to the village of Calheta.
Located in Ponta do Sol, 200 metres from Lugar de Baixo Beach, 1905 Zino's Palace provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace.

Arco da Calheta is a local parish with character, spread out across a steep, hilly valley with narrow, winding roads, facing the Atlantic. Visitors will likely live among local residents and their wildlife (one or two cows, a few chickens & cockerels announcing their presence; cats & and dogs calmly roaming around), although more holiday accommodation is springing up, and Shopkeepers/restaurants are helpful, and often speak English, though not all! The weather is hard to predict sometimes , and can contrast across different parts of the parish: near the ocean , it is more likely to be calm and sunny; further up the slopes you will get more cloud and possibly wind on exposed sections. A visit to a local supermarket will likely mean either hopping in your car or a very bracing workout for your leg muscles!

Arco da Calheta is a very peaceful part of the island with little traffic and mostly locals. There are some excellent hiking opportunities nearby, most notably 25 Fontes, which is a very popular (and therefore very busy) but beautiful trail. Not recommended without a car as even amenities are long and steep walks away and the hiking trails are only accessible with car too. Taxis don’t work here and buses are very infrequent.

Quieter than the Funchal area and still central enough to explore the island of Madeira. Some small shops, bars and restaurants around.
Close to Calheta where you can find a supermarket and a couple of restaurants. And the most sandy beach of the island!
Living further up the mountains, means driving on more windy. steep and narrow roads. Staying closer to the coast will make driving easier.

This was our second time in Madeira, and first, we stayed in Ribeira Brava. The landscape in Archo da Calheta is very similar, with dramatic cliffs hanging over the ocean. The valley is falling into the ocean, making the place very picturesque. We loved the area and would recommend it to anyone staying there.

Lovely place for family of four.
Lovely place for family of four. Nice, comfortable and quiet location with very local climate. Bar with great coffee below and reserved car park space. Few minutes driving from supermarket and the beach. Weather was usually better then in Funchal. Handy distance to Fanal forest or other attractions on the west side of Madeira. Highly recommended.

The host was amazing.
The host was amazing. I can not say enough good things about her. She was concerned about our happiness throughout the whole stay. Lots of recommendations of where to eat and things and places to see. The house was exactly as described and very clean. I would not hesitate to stay here again if it was available on my next trip to Madeira. Best rental property out of all of my previous stays using Booking.com.

Amazing views from the beautiful gardens. A lovely breeze at the pool and more sheltered at the house for colder days. The house had everything. Just be aware there is no air conditioning in the bedrooms...the unit is situated in the open plan living area. Comfy beds and good quality bedding. Our host left a fabulous food basket of eggs, wine, bananas and cookies. He also left custard apples which are fab. It is a 5 min drive to Calheta with many restaurants and a pingo doce for groceries. We had some great weather for the time of year.
The house is simply amazing. Everything is new and you have everything you need. It has a great view and the surroundings are very very very green. Waking up to the view of the sea and drinikg the coffee on the terrace is a great feeling. Very confortable and has lots of space. It can fit easily 8 people. And can do work from home from here. A supermarket is 8 min by car from the home and also some restaurants. Highly recommend! Can't wait to come back and book more time at this place.
Absolutely superb stay here. The owners are so kind and provided really helpful tips when we checked-in, as well as giving us some local fruits & delicious Madeira wine! The apartment is absolutely spotless and really well equipped (blender, food processor, washing machine, smart TV, great oven). There are 2 beautiful, sunny balconies. It is a really quiet and peaceful area with amazing views of the sea and the mountains. We will definitely return here!
Great location, well above, but handy for both the express coastal road and plateau above. Comfortable clean and very well-equipped modern villa with stunning views. Safe roadside parking, but also electric gate .. fine to bring in a smaller car. A couple of good simple restaurants within walking distance on the ER222 road, and a great one a mile or two up the hill .. also, the host kept in touch to ask if all was well.
The room was very clean and spacious, the beds were huge and very comfortable. The breakfasts were simple but delicious - the products were fresh and tasty. The area is very calm and the nights were very quiet. There is a huge parking lot, which is rather uncommon on Madeira. Huge thanks to Monica who is very helpful and warm person that makes this place very welcoming.
Very nice and comfortable accommodation with a beautiful view. Very helpful and kind owner, he accommodated us even when we arrived at about 1am (our plane was delayed). Levadas are easily accessible from the accommodation. Shops and beaches are a little further away, so more suitable for those who visit Madeira for the beautiful nature.
The property must be managed by the Savoy Hotel chain. I was contacted by email one day before we were scheduled to stay at the Hill Houses. The email stated that they were sorry, but the rental house was no longer available, and they could give me a suite at their 5 star Saccharin Hotel in Calheta.
Awesome view from terrace. Quiet place. Sunsets and ocean views was so special. Price/Comfort balance. You will need a car to reach this place. Welcome present - Madeira wine and cake <3
I think its best apartment in this town in balance price/comfort. All other variants was to expensive.
Great place with a amazing view on the ocean. Nice swimming pool. Hotel is small, all rooms had a view of the sea and swimingpool and balcony. Breakfast was very good and also hotel restaurant offers very good dinner . Parking is available . Staff was very nice and friendly .
Home was very tidy and comfortable for us. All rooms presented on pictures are looking the same as in real. Noise from outside building works wasn't hurt us too much. If you are busy visiting Madeira during day it's not a problem because it's calm in the evening.
very friendly and helpful staff, especially Monica. comfortable rooms, ocean view from the room, there is a parking nearby. Hotel restaurant with good and tasty food. The breakfasts are excellent.
Everything was just great! It was one of the best hotels I've stayed in. Also the stuff was very nice, Monica helped us everytime we needed something. Definitely an accomodation to be recommended.

- The pool heating is worth its money (30€/day). You can make a giant jacuzzi if you want to.
- Finding the accommodation is no problem, you can even search it on Google Maps
Excellent fully fitted villa in beautiful surroundings. Loved the swimming pool. Amenities and restaurants nearby. Ideal location for visiting the whole of Madeira.
