Villa Acacia- Spectacular Ocean view & heated pool

Modern spacious villa with spectacular panoramic ocean views with heated infinity-like pool in a quiet area 500 meters above sea level. 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, sleeps 8.

Villa Acacia is a luxury 4 bedroom holiday villa completed in 2016. Located on the edge of the peaceful village of Loreto, 1679 ft/500m above sea level, it commands awe-inspiring, panoramic sea views. Facing South the villa and the pool and terraces enjoy full sunshine from early morning to sunset.

The villa features an outdoor private heated pool, surrounding sun terrace, top floor balcony, garden, barbecue facilities, free WiFi and free gated private parking for 3 cars.

The villa has 4 bedrooms (3 have direct pool access with ocean views), 4 bathrooms, a games room, bed linen, towels, a flat-screen TV, a dining area and a fully equipped modern kitchen.

The top floor is a reverse level arrangement, with a kitchen, dining and lounge area, to the rear is the 4th bed- and bathroom (shower). A balcony runs the full length of this floor, and the view is ever present throughout the glass doors and window that cover about 75 % of all walls. Accessibility is provided by in - & outside stairs leading down to the ground floor(s).

The ground floor has three bedrooms all with direct access to the swimming pool & terrace and all with magnificent sea views. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom (shower). The 2nd and 3rd bedroom share a bathroom (shower) on the same floor. (All bathrooms have a washing basin with mirror - toilet & shower)

The basement floor features a large games room with a full size pool table, table tennis and table football. Situated here is also a fourth bathroom (shower) with laundry facilities (washer, dryer, iron & board) and a small utility terrace outside.

The heated swimming pool is 10 metres long x 3.5 metres wide.
It ranges between 150cm & 180cm in depth. (no shallow end)

*Young children must always be kept under supervision in and around the pool. As an Infinity-like Pool, the views are magnificent, but there is a 4-metre drop on the rear side of the pool. This area is constructed for safety, so only dangerous when daredevilry or adolescent behaviour would be involved.
There is a video doorbell covering the front door, car park and main gate.

Amazing stay, hosts super helpful

We had an amazing stay, very sweet that the hosts had left a basket of Madeira produce for us. The house itself is a good size lots of space indoors, outdoors and has an amazing view. The games room and pool provided great entertainment. Couple of amenities within walking distance (small supermarket, pizza restaurant, bars) otherwise need to drive to a bigger town, but great location for exploring the island with a car. Hosts were so helpful with suggestions of places to eat and activities on the island.

One week holiday - Group of 9

We recently stayed at this delightful rental, and I can't recommend it highly enough. The host was incredibly accommodating (as we had one extra person joining last minute), going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. The house itself was great, well-appointed, and filled with thoughtful touches. From the welcoming drinks to the detailed local recommendations, every aspect of our stay was carefully considered. Communication with Tanja was prompt and friendly, and any requests we had were handled with efficiency. This rental is a gem!

Villa Acacia

What a wonderful trip. Homeowners were very responsive and helpful. Great location as the villa is steps away from both a main hiking region and resort/marina area. We were lucky to have seen most of the island and I would agree that this house is in one of the best locations on the island. Morning views were spectacular and we couldn’t ask for better weather. We were two families with two teenagers and a child and found something for everyone to do and enjoy. The grocery store close by was also quite helpful. We enjoyed our dinners out (several recommended by homeowners) but also enjoy cooking our own meals so the nearby grocery store was a hit. Thanks for a memorable trip!!

Séjour en tout point réussi! Merci Tanja et Andy!

Un grand merci à Tanja et Andy qui ont fait de ce séjour en famille une réussite. La villa était vraiment top . Très bien équipée, rien ne manquait. le moindre détail était prévu comme à la maison pour notre plus grand confort. Nous n'avons réellement jamais été aussi bien reçus que par Tanja et Andy . Des hôtes attentionnés, aux petits soins , toujours à l'écoute et qui sont allés jusqu'à nous couvrir de cadeaux au pied du sapin à Noel. Quelle joie! Sans oublier le champagne au frais! En plus de cet accueil exceptionnel nous avons bénéficié de leur attention et de leurs conseils du début de notre projet à la fin de notre séjour avec des idées de sorties, de bons plans. Toujours réactifs et prêts à rendre nos vacances inoubliables ils ont même équipé leur maison d'un lit bébé et d'une chaise haute pour notre petit fils de 11 mois! vous êtes merveilleux! Nous y retournerions sans hésitation et conseillons cette villa à qui veut se rendre à Madère. vous ne trouverez pas mieux! Merci à vous deux!

Exceptional villa

It was an absolute pleasure for us to stay at Villa Acacia for 9 nights. To begin with, Tanja is a terrific host. Her communication with us prior to our arrival was top notch. She provided so much helpful information which really assisted us in preparing for our first visit to Madeira. The villa itself is a large, modern accommodation, both spacious and bright. For those who like to cook, it has a very well equipped kitchen. There is a refreshing pool directly off the bedrooms. We used this frequently during our stay since Madeira experienced some of the hottest temperatures on record for June while we were there. There is a good-sized gated parking area. The villa is situated in a quiet neighbourhood with some wonderful views. Despite a few hot days, we found many things to see and explore. Some of these included the levada walks to both the Risco waterfall and the 25 Fontes, the sea cliffs at Porto Prego, the Monte Palace Tropical gardens, the cable car ride at Achadas da Cruz, the cable car ride up to Monte from the base station in Funchal, visiting the large market in Funchal, seeing the views from Pico do Areeiro, the 3rd highest peak on the island, seeing the traditional homes in Santana, visiting the Fanal forest, taking the toboggan ride at Monte, and visiting the Valley of the Nuns. We highly recommend a visit to this beautiful island. And while you're there, do yourself a favour and stay at Villa Acacia. You won't be disappointed!

LOVE THIS LITTLE NOOK OF HAPPINESS

It’s very hard to narrow down this amazing experience!! Tanja is AMAZING!! The communication is spot on!!ANY questions you have about anything- she is there to help and very quick to respond . Madeira is very hilly and with a manual car- you have to be on your game. The villa was everything EVERYTHING and more!! The beds are comfortable- kitchen was fully stocked with all kinds of kitchen goodies! The views are breathtaking and the furniture was incredibly comfortable! We definitely will be back soon! Only issues were- not sure where to take the trash and the master bedroom AC wasn’t working- but- she was prompt to get workers booked to fix it- but the day they promised to be there - there was a PortugaFutbol game - and he called off sick. She was so apologetic- but the temp was perfect for no AC and it was still comfortable ❤️ I’d give this place a 10++++ star if I could. ❤️❤️ We will be back!

The perfect home away from home for a family stay in Madeira with the most incredible views.

Tanja and Andy are the best hosts we could have asked for during our 1 month stay in Madeira. My family of 4 stayed at the this amazing home and we absolutely love it. We also had 2 and then 3 additional friends come and join us for a short period of time during our stay. The house handled everyone so well. Every one of us had a comfortable bed and there was plenty of restrooms and shower in every floor. The game room was amazing, we loved playing in the foosball table, the pool table and the ping pong table. My husband enjoyed all the gym exercise equipment. We all had a blast playing with the board games as well. The bedrooms were all spacious and had amazing closet space for everyone. We never ran our of clean towels, which was so amazing! We also had a washer and a DRYER!! The headed pool was a hit with all the kids in the house, specially because they got to swim in the pool even on chilly days. The house had plenty of outdoor areas to sit and enjoy the views. The kitchen was big and super organized with absolutely everything you would need and plenty of everything. There are two access points to the house, which made bringing groceries an easy task. The main part of the house has the a beautiful open floorpan with the kitchen, dinning and living room. The entire length of that floor has sliding glass doors which not only provide a great breeze, but they give you the most amazing views of the that side of the island and the town of Arco da Calheta. The outdoor deck was one of our favorite spots to sit and enjoy watching the paraglider taking off from the mountain across the way and also seeing the clouds come in and out, there was some days we woke up in the clouds and that was incredible. We rented a car and we loved having the parking in the property and having an easy access to all the attractions to the island. Tanja and Andy were are the most incredible hosts, we visited during the holiday season and I mentioned we would be celebrating my son's birthday during our stay. Well, they surprised us with a fully decorated home for the holiday, a beautiful Christmas Tree and plenty of wrapped GIFTS for EVERYONE! I was so touched when Tanja showed me she had a Birthday cake & candles and a birthday card ready for my son's birthday in the freezer-that meant a lot to me. I was so touched that a host will do this for us & after our say, she also took care of shipping my shopping back home for me! & the house was spotless.They are simply the best!

Neben dem beheizten Pool haben wir auch die Tischtennisplatte und den Billardtisch ausgiebig genutzt.

Acerca de su propietario/a

Propietario/a: Tanja Holzhaus

Imagen de perfil del propietario o de la propietaria
Hello, We are Andy and Tanja and we live in the Netherlands. Andy is originally from England and I was born and raised in Amsterdam. We've been married for over 20 years and we love to travel whenever we can. We have our own company in IT and Photography which allows us to work from different locations. When we came to Madeira for the first time we just loved it immediately. After a few more visits we decided to look for a second house here and after more then 4 years we finally found 'the one' .

Madeira is so beautiful, versatile, safe and friendly. It has a vast history, culture, beautiful nature, unique sea water-swimming pools, a network of Levadas and mountain trails. You can go to the beach and catch some sun and then later set of in the ancient Lauris Lava (laurel tree Unesco protected forrest) and find yourself amidst the clouds. The weather is very nice throughout the year (give or take some windy or stormy days sometimes) and there are whales and dolphins swimming near by the coast. (there are several Sea-life watching trips with guaranteed sightings) There are many different and affordable restaurants with great local dishes and loads of little (Poncha = local alcoholic specialty) Poncha and traditional bars. For real clubbing and nightlife Funchal is the place to go. Most people speak (some) English so it's easy getting around without speaking Portugese, although a few words are always highly appreciated :)

Por qué escogió este alojamiento

Although we love Funchal and the surrounding area, and also many other different places around the island, Arco de Calheta has overall the best weather, more direct acces to the mountains and sea-life and a small (handmade) beach surrounded by a cute harbour and nice restaurants and 5* hotels. It is less busy and very central to go anywhere on the island.

This property was shown to us because we were in the area looking at another house. And while it was bigger then what we searched for, the moment we stepped upon the balcony we were sold! The view is all we ever wanted, the pool is an unexpected plus and the spacious house with it's modern and local features truly our style. Luckily it turned out that it was already a Holiday let with impressive reviews and that the property managers would keep running it for us as they did. They are a couple from England and Madeira and such wonderful service-minded and friendly people, that we dared to make the leap and here we are.

Although perfect at is we are looking at some future improvements and extra's, without taking away anything that made people love it so much so we truly hope we can make people love their stay their as much as we love to be there :)

Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial

Here I'm supposed to say what our UNIQUE benefits are and I'm not sure what 'unique' would be as not much is unique nowadays but I can say what WE love about the house; The view (oh had I already mentioned that?) the 10 x 3.5 infinity pool, the sunrise over the mountain on the left - sun all day - and then the sunset on the right into the ocean. The spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, the balconies top and poolside overlooking the ocean. (Even from the top floor you have constant view around thanks to the glass walls and windows) The side terrace with garden and BBQ.. The fact there is room for a full size game room and that everything is well kept and modern in style .I love to cook, so a fully equipped kitchen is a must and I love the granite cooking island.
I guess maybe in short it's better to ask what I don't like :) - The climb back up on foot with groceries - Taking the wrong road up (read OUR directions not Google maps!) in the car (Holland is as flat as a pancake so I have to get used to some of these steep hills- maybe their no bother to you) but other then that we just totally love the place.
