Modern spacious villa with spectacular panoramic ocean views with heated infinity-like pool in a quiet area 500 meters above sea level. 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, sleeps 8.

Villa Acacia is a luxury 4 bedroom holiday villa completed in 2016. Located on the edge of the peaceful village of Loreto, 1679 ft/500m above sea level, it commands awe-inspiring, panoramic sea views. Facing South the villa and the pool and terraces enjoy full sunshine from early morning to sunset.

The villa features an outdoor private heated pool, surrounding sun terrace, top floor balcony, garden, barbecue facilities, free WiFi and free gated private parking for 3 cars.

The villa has 4 bedrooms (3 have direct pool access with ocean views), 4 bathrooms, a games room, bed linen, towels, a flat-screen TV, a dining area and a fully equipped modern kitchen.

The top floor is a reverse level arrangement, with a kitchen, dining and lounge area, to the rear is the 4th bed- and bathroom (shower). A balcony runs the full length of this floor, and the view is ever present throughout the glass doors and window that cover about 75 % of all walls. Accessibility is provided by in - & outside stairs leading down to the ground floor(s).

The ground floor has three bedrooms all with direct access to the swimming pool & terrace and all with magnificent sea views. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom (shower).

The basement floor features a large games room with a full size pool table, table tennis and table football. Situated here is also a fourth bathroom (shower) with laundry facilities (washer, dryer, iron & board) and a small utility terrace outside.

The heated swimming pool is 10 metres long x 3.5 metres wide.
It ranges between 150cm & 180cm in depth. (no shallow end)

*Young children must always be kept under supervision in and around the pool. As an Infinity-like Pool, the views are magnificent, but there is a 4-metre drop on the rear side of the pool.

Amazing stay, hosts super helpful

We had an amazing stay, very sweet that the hosts had left a basket of Madeira produce for us. The house itself is a good size lots of space indoors, outdoors and has an amazing view. The games room and pool provided great entertainment. Couple of amenities within walking distance (small supermarket, pizza restaurant, bars) otherwise need to drive to a bigger town, but great location for exploring the island with a car. Hosts were so helpful with suggestions of places to eat and activities on the island.

Beautiful home equipped with everything you need for a relaxed stay. Supermarket down the road. Nice restaurants near by. Ride to Porta Moniz a quick distance up the hill ! We will definitely return soon!

Superb villa with breath taking views

This villa is great for a family holiday. A beautiful, quite location, yet close enough to drive to all the tourist attractions. It is exceptionally clean and comfortable and very spacious for us and our 2 boys aged 11 and 13. The pool area and the balconies make you feel like a Hollywood 'A' lister !!! Great photo opportunities !! The owner, Bill, is very helpful and includes lots of info about the villa and Madeira when booking. The local restaurant, Naye Pizza, does great food and the pizzas are out of this world. There is also a small supermarket just down the road. Walking up the road to the little café for coffee and ice creams will keep you fit - the roads are steep in Madeira !! You will not regret booking this villa for your next holiday.

Excellent house with spectacular views!

The house is very spacious and tastefully decorated. We loved the pool and the terrasses and the space in the living room/kitchen area. It' a 10 minute drive to the coast with some restaurants and a bigger supermarket but the next little supermarket is only 2 minutes away. You need a car and it should have a strong engine as hills are really steep. The view is just great, there's not only the atlantic ocean but also the entire valley to your feet. The only thing which was not so nice was that there are a lot of dogs aound who barked quasi the entire night but that's how it is in most southern Europe countries. The communication with Bill was great and he has provided lot's of very good informarion. We can absolutely recommend the house and would definitely come again!

LOVE THIS LITTLE NOOK OF HAPPINESS

It’s very hard to narrow down this amazing experience!! Tanja is AMAZING!! The communication is spot on!!ANY questions you have about anything- she is there to help and very quick to respond . Madeira is very hilly and with a manual car- you have to be on your game. The villa was everything EVERYTHING and more!! The beds are comfortable- kitchen was fully stocked with all kinds of kitchen goodies! The views are breathtaking and the furniture was incredibly comfortable! We definitely will be back soon! Only issues were- not sure where to take the trash and the master bedroom AC wasn’t working- but- she was prompt to get workers booked to fix it- but the day they promised to be there - there was a PortugaFutbol game - and he called off sick. She was so apologetic- but the temp was perfect for no AC and it was still comfortable ❤️ I’d give this place a 10++++ star if I could. ❤️❤️ We will be back!

First class accommodation

Prior to our visit we received everything we needed to know from the owner and also a contact in case of any problems. Instructions and directions were all good. The property is spacious with fantastic views overlooking the surrounding settlement and ocean. There are two wide balconies with plenty of seating. The house is very well equipped with everything you need . All furnishings and equipment are of a good quality. There is ample internal space to spread out. The tv worked fine but no DVD’s are provided. The games room is a good feature but there is some damage to the football table and the pool table really needs to be levelled in order to make it playable. The outdoor pool is great if you are competent swimmers, but be aware there is no shallow end if you have children or are non swimmers yourself. There is ample car parking, but getting in and out may not be easy if you have more than one car. The above were only minor niggles and overall this is still a fantastic house to spend a holiday in and certainly one of the best we have used. There is small local supermarket which is very well stocked.

Exceptional villa

It was an absolute pleasure for us to stay at Villa Acacia for 9 nights. To begin with, Tanja is a terrific host. Her communication with us prior to our arrival was top notch. She provided so much helpful information which really assisted us in preparing for our first visit to Madeira. The villa itself is a large, modern accommodation, both spacious and bright. For those who like to cook, it has a very well equipped kitchen. There is a refreshing pool directly off the bedrooms. We used this frequently during our stay since Madeira experienced some of the hottest temperatures on record for June while we were there. There is a good-sized gated parking area. The villa is situated in a quiet neighbourhood with some wonderful views. Despite a few hot days, we found many things to see and explore. Some of these included the levada walks to both the Risco waterfall and the 25 Fontes, the sea cliffs at Porto Prego, the Monte Palace Tropical gardens, the cable car ride at Achadas da Cruz, the cable car ride up to Monte from the base station in Funchal, visiting the large market in Funchal, seeing the views from Pico do Areeiro, the 3rd highest peak on the island, seeing the traditional homes in Santana, visiting the Fanal forest, taking the toboggan ride at Monte, and visiting the Valley of the Nuns. We highly recommend a visit to this beautiful island. And while you're there, do yourself a favour and stay at Villa Acacia. You won't be disappointed!

Beautiful villa

Villa was absolutely amazing, completely as described. Pictures don't really do it any justice. I was actually a bit ill for the first few days of our 2 week holiday so thank god I had a lovely couch to chill out on and plenty of tv channels to watch so that was a good send. We used the pool table a few times and that was fun. The heated pool we used daily. It was still a bit cold, but then it's November and to be honest once you made the final diveand actually got in it was fab. Views from the villa are just incredible and something we never got tired of looking at. We didn't hire a car, we just used a taxi company who were brilliant. We used the little shop which was about 10 mins walk away, but it only sold a few items we used and sold out of things like milk and port. It did seem to take days for them to restock. We used pingo doce a few times in the end which was a much bigger and I'll be honest, much more friendly shop. It took about an hour and a half to walk to but then we caught a taxi back. It was a lovely walk down although not many pavements about but it added to the fun. There are, as people have mentioned, quite a few hills around. If you're not really good with walking uphill a lot then I would hire a car. We did go to funchal which is definately worth a visit. It is a lot busier because it's a city but there is plenty to do there. We had a brilliant holiday and Bill the owner was very lovely to deal with and responded to all our enquires, quickly. The same can be said with rose, who manages the property. We have no hesitation in booking this beautiful villa again.

The perfect home away from home for a family stay in Madeira with the most incredible views.

Tanja and Andy are the best hosts we could have asked for during our 1 month stay in Madeira. My family of 4 stayed at the this amazing home and we absolutely love it. We also had 2 and then 3 additional friends come and join us for a short period of time during our stay. The house handled everyone so well. Every one of us had a comfortable bed and there was plenty of restrooms and shower in every floor. The game room was amazing, we loved playing in the foosball table, the pool table and the ping pong table. My husband enjoyed all the gym exercise equipment. We all had a blast playing with the board games as well. The bedrooms were all spacious and had amazing closet space for everyone. We never ran our of clean towels, which was so amazing! We also had a washer and a DRYER!! The headed pool was a hit with all the kids in the house, specially because they got to swim in the pool even on chilly days. The house had plenty of outdoor areas to sit and enjoy the views. The kitchen was big and super organized with absolutely everything you would need and plenty of everything. There are two access points to the house, which made bringing groceries an easy task. The main part of the house has the a beautiful open floorpan with the kitchen, dinning and living room. The entire length of that floor has sliding glass doors which not only provide a great breeze, but they give you the most amazing views of the that side of the island and the town of Arco da Calheta. The outdoor deck was one of our favorite spots to sit and enjoy watching the paraglider taking off from the mountain across the way and also seeing the clouds come in and out, there was some days we woke up in the clouds and that was incredible. We rented a car and we loved having the parking in the property and having an easy access to all the attractions to the island. Tanja and Andy were are the most incredible hosts, we visited during the holiday season and I mentioned we would be celebrating my son's birthday during our stay. Well, they surprised us with a fully decorated home for the holiday, a beautiful Christmas Tree and plenty of wrapped GIFTS for EVERYONE! I was so touched when Tanja showed me she had a Birthday cake & candles and a birthday card ready for my son's birthday in the freezer-that meant a lot to me. I was so touched that a host will do this for us & after our say, she also took care of shipping my shopping back home for me! & the house was spotless.They are simply the best!
