Furnished Monthly rental: House for rent in Canico Santa Cruz Madeira Island Portugal, for longer stays

Vivenda Belo Horizonte

Vivenda Belo Horizonte is perched on a top cliff (142 meters) above the Garajau Natural Sea Reserve – a protected habitat of a rare fish, indigenous birds and even Mediterranean monk seals – this splendid villa is blessed with an uninterrupted 180º view over and across the Atlantic ocean, with the rugged Desertas Islands to the east and Garajau`s famous Statue of Christ to the west. This stupendous panorama alone would make Vivenda Belo Horizonte highly desirable, but this spacious property also boasts the added luxury of its own small kidney-shaped pool from which to admire this beguiling outlook – a highly unusual bonus on Madeira. Offering all the comforts of a real family home, the accommodation is arranged on two floors. On the upper floor are four double bedrooms, three of which have direct access to a balcony. The master bedroom has a superb en suite bathroom with a Jacuzzi bathtub, another bedroom is also en suite, and there is a third bathroom to serve the remaining two bedrooms. Downstairs is a spacious living room with comfy leather sofas, a dining area and a fully equipped kitchen for those who wish to enjoy family meals in the privileged seclusion of the poolside terrace. Caniço de Baixo with its diving school, seawater swimming pool and a small rocky beach is just a little further and can be reached by car in 5 minutes, as can Caniço itself. For more cosmopolitan days or nights out, Funchal is just 9 km away, easily accessed via the new airport road. For those who enjoy sporting pursuits, the Santo da Serra Golf Club is 20 km away.
