Large outdoor area with 4 different spaces spread over an infinity terrace facing the sea:

The private pool is heated, and an additional fee of €45 per day applies for pool heating, for minimum stays of 3 days.
We would also like to highlight that during the low season (from October to April), due to environmental considerations and the high cost associated with heating the pool, this service will only be available when the outdoor temperature is equal to or above 20°C.
In addition to these 4 exterior spaces, the villa includes a breathtaking garden on three levels, all facing the sea. At the upper level — the Panoramic Garden — you’ll find a charming spot perfect for reading or simply contemplating the endless ocean.
This unique villa, with its contemporary design and carefully curated decoration, promises a memorable experience on this small yet unforgettable island of Madeira.
