House boat, rustic house with heated pool with sea view

Rustic sec-style country house. XIX finished to rebuild in 2015, ideal home for vacation, situated 3.5 Km from the sea, near the golden sandy beach of Calheta, in a quiet and at the same time in the middle of Arc parish of Calheta.
We can find several cafes, restaurants, pharmacy, small grocery store and church.
It has sea and mountain views.
In the house entrance we found a boat that was put in tribute to former owners who were fishermen.
The house is privileged by a solar array throughout the day with great outdoor space to enjoy sunny afternoons and watch the sunset ..

A great stay with spectacular views
Lovely villa with plenty of space and a couple of handy bars/restaurants nearby. We especially loved the outdoor space - private pool was fantastic, as was the outdoor kitchen. Only problem was it made it hard to tear ourselves away to explore this beautiful island!

Amazing sunsets!
We loved our stay here. There were a few tiny things that were not perfect, but it didn't affect our stay. Loved the swimming pool and it has an amazing view with gorgeous sunsets! The island is fantastic and we will definitely be back!

Perfect place for our family to stay. Comfortable with all the amenities
We loved it! We were looking for a place that wasn’t in the main city Funchal in order to see everyday Madeira. Casa Do Barco is easy to reach by car and is surrounded by the small grocery shops, bars and restaurants used by the locals. The house has an enclosed courtyard and has terraces on three levels, all of them in the sun and with wonderful wide views over to the sea. The swimming pool is set amidst green grass and was warm, 28degC by the end of our stay. The house has all mod cons and the kitchen was equipped to feed us all every night. It was so nice just to eat on the terrace with a glass of local wine, we didn’t need to visit restaurants. All in all we had a wonderful holiday and we thoroughly recommend people to stay at Casa Do Barco.

Fantastic place to stay, very well equipped, and Teresa was very helpful.
The property has everything you need, and was an excellent base for our hiking week. If there was one thing, I would make guests aware that most sat navs take you up an extremely steep road to get to the house! There is a much easier route. Apart from that, we can't wait to return. Thank you Teresa.

Stunning in every way
This is a great holiday base with fabulous views, clean and comfortable living space and Teresa was an absolute star! The pictures don't really do justice to this place which is about half way up the mountain so the views were stunning. There are local shops and places to eat within walking distance but like many places on Madera its reached by roads that are steep and very bendy. Take your courage in both hands and divert from the main roads with tunnels and you will see a truly spectacular island. On the first night we arrived after dark and couldn't find it. An SOS call to Teresa and she found us and guided us to the property which we'd just missed. The wildfires have left this area alone although you can see evidence of this at the very top of the hills. Highly recommended :)
