Casa Vista do Ledo (lovingly cared for).

Since renovating the property from 2022 to 2025, and changing the property management to be family run in 2019, we have received regular 5* or 10/10 reviews via other booking channels. Please feel free to contact us if you have any queries about the villa.

Our Villa is located in the rural southwest of Madeira, in Arco da Calheta, 45 minutes from Funchal airport. It is only a 6 minute drive away from the golden sand beach in Calheta.

Our Villa has its own private, south facing swimming pool (9m x 4m) and beautiful sea views, with tiled patio bathing area, sun beds, umbrellas and outside shower. Pool towels can be provided. NB: Swimming Pool access is via steps down to the lower level.

All of the bedrooms are large and spacious and have large king-sized double beds (3 rooms) or single beds (2 rooms) all with mattresses of high resilience foam to ensure an excellent nights sleep. We rent our villa as a 3 bedroom villa or a 5 bedroom villa depending on the number of guests staying at the villa. We are on-site to provide holiday information e.g. organising taxis, suggesting good walks or nice restaurants.

The upper floor living room has a private patio with amazing sea and mountain views, perfect for those evening drinks when all the village lights come in the valley on below. The large family kitchen has long solid wood kitchen tables and chairs, microwave, cooker and fridge/freezer and a very well stocked selection of pans & cooking utensils.

*** Our Villa has a Games Room available for all bookings. It includes full sized Pool table, cards, dominos and darts board.

The villa has free wifi and is within easy access to good levada walks - such as Rabacal.

Baby & Child facilities.
We have a Chicco cot (with bed linen), Chicco high chair and baby bath available on request for babies and provide colourful plastic plates, dishes and cutlery for young children.

The property is situated in 1600m2 of lush banana groves and has been built in the traditional terraced style on the mountainside in the peaceful and tranquil hamlet of Ledo. The main living accommodation enjoys magnificent panoramic views of both mountains and sea.

The local café is a 5 minute walk away and the village of Arco da Calheta is just a short 15min walk. Here you will find a post office, hairdressers, a café and bar, a church, a cash machine and a children's play area.

The local villages & activities:
Just 15 minutes away is the picturesque village of Ribeira Brava, with its famous Poncha bars (the famous Madeiran drink of sugar cane rum, honey & lemon).

The busiest time of the year in Calheta is the week of June 24th when the parish celebrates the festival of St John (Sao Joao). Madeiran's travel from around the island to experience the many local food stalls and live music. It's truly an evening event not to be missed.
