Enchanted Seclusion

Ponta do Sol is known as the sunniest place in Madeira, and you'll enjoy beautiful weather all day at this clifftop villa. Step out onto the patio from the open-plan living space and bask in the sea views – there's plenty of lounging space here. The alfresco dining table is perfect for enjoying dinner with a sunset, and you can choose to cook in the modern kitchen or the barbecue room. You'll tempt younger travellers here with the PlayStation, but even they won't be able to resist the nearby activities. Take to the skies with paragliding (just a five-minute walk away), drive down to the beach, or visit the Banana Museum of Madeira.
