Providing a stunning panoramic view of the ocean below, this home sits peacefully up in a raised spot above the southern coast of Madeira – and once you've seen it for yourself, you'll agree that its perched position is not the only thing that's elevated about this holiday home. Step out on the terrace and immediately be blown away by the blue views before you. Here, you can sit in the egg chair and watch the sun come up with a cup of coffee in hand, or dine out in the evenings on the alfresco dining set, and soak up every last minute of the sunshine. There's another patio area with a hot tub here too – great for giving your muscles a good soak after long days exploring Funchal, based just a short drive away. Inside, the home is just as exquisite, with elegant furniture, opulent decor and a calming neutral colour scheme that runs throughout. There are two lounge areas, giving you all plenty of space to stretch out and relax, and there's a large kitchen here where you can cook up some tasty locally-caught seafood. If you want to treat yourself further, you can pay a little extra to... access some fantastic facilities located in the neighbourhood complex – there's a spa, swimming pools and gym, all ready for you to enjoy some proper you-time – and there's even an 18-hole golf course for when you want to tee off.
