Villa Wild River

<p>Overlooking the glistening waters of the Ribeira Brava, along the coast from Ponta do Sol, you’ll find it hard to find a dreamier island getaway than at Villa Wild River. Poised dramatically by the cliff edge, you could spend all day looking out over the mesmerising Madeira landscape. Floor-to-ceiling picture windows frame the breathtaking views, with white walls, contemporary decor, and sleek furnishings letting natural light bounce around the interior spaces. There is a sense of tranquillity in every room, particularly in the open-plan living area with sliding glass doors that bring the outside in. Homely and warm, the plush sofas tempt you to kick off your shoes in blissful comfort in front of the flatscreen TV. The kitchen has a modern finish and high-end appliances, as well as a wide breakfast bar and island for some extra space. Extremely spacious, the four bedrooms are stretched across the villa and are enhanced by the spellbinding panoramas. For some added privacy, the twin bedroom is a self-contained studio with its own snug lounge and kitchen area.</p> <p>Villa Wild River doesn’t disappoint, with the elegance of the interiors spilling out across the sun-kissed terrace. Dotted with sofas, hammocks, and sun beds overlooking the spectacular panoramas, it’s impossible not to relax in this sublime outdoor space. A stylish outdoor dining area under the shaded veranda calls for balmy evenings with cocktails at sunset or feasting on local delicacies cooked on the barbecue. The gleaming swimming pool will instantly transport you into holiday mode, where you can face the picturesque scenery during swims. There’s even a table tennis table for some family-friendly competition. Set in the perfect location to explore the island, in just ten minutes you’ve reached the centre of Funchal, filled with restaurants and cafes. Enjoy the beautiful, blooming botanical gardens or disappear into the old town and spot crumbling churches and ancient houses.</p> <p><b>Important Information</b> Please note that the external staircases and landings feature ladder-effect railings.
