There are places that welcome us. And then, there are places that captivate us. Discover Villa Achada da Mouca by Homie!
In the heart of the emblematic Santana area, surrounded by the untouched nature of the island, this rural villa is the perfect refuge for those wishing to escape routine and recharge their batteries.
Surrounded by beautiful gardens, Villa Achada da Mouca invites you to moments of pure relaxation, with reading nooks, leisure areas, a welcoming veranda and a barbecue with a winter garden, which set the scene for memorable experiences.
At home, with rustic and welcoming design, combines comfort and traditional charm. Comprising two bedrooms — a suite with a double bed and another bedroom with two separate beds — all bathed in natural light and with enchanting views over the gardens, it offers an environment of serenity and privacy.
The living room, with direct access to the outside, is perfect for moments of socialising or for warming up by the fireplace on cooler days.
The kitchen and dining area, fully equipped, provide all the necessary comfort for preparing delicious meals. On the top floor, a lounge with a centuries-old wine cellar and billiard table adds a touch of fun and exclusivity to your stay.
Despite having two private parking spaces, you won’t need to use the car to explore the nature around it. Just 2 km away, you’ll find the idyllic Queimadas area, a starting point for numerous trails and levadas in the region.
Among them, the Levada do Caldeirão Verde, the Levada do Caldeirão do Inferno, the Levada do Rei and the Levada da Silveira are must-sees. Waterfalls, forest parks with picnic areas, panoramic viewpoints, the Madeira Thematic Park and the typical colourful houses of Santana complete the setting of a unique experience.
Villa Achada da Mouca by Homie is not just an accommodation. It is an invitation. An invitation to slow down, to breathe, to feel the forest and nature around you. It is the starting point for unforgettable moments in the heart of Madeira!

Since 2017, we have welcomed travellers from all over the world to our beloved island of Madeira, with a commitment to providing memorable experiences and excellent service. We started as Madeira Sun Travel, a name that reflected the sun, comfort and welcoming spirit that has always guided us.
Over time, we realised that we wanted to go further: more closeness, more authenticity, more connection.
That’s how Homie was born. More than a new name - a new way of being.
Each stay is thought through in detail to be special and welcoming. Each house has its own story. And each guest is received as an old friend.
Beyond comfort and hospitality, we also provide, upon request, additional services such as car rental, activity bookings, personalised experiences and much more - all so that you can make the most of Madeira.

About the area
Madeira, Portugal, is an archipelago of volcanic origin, renowned for its lush landscapes, rugged coastlines, and a mild climate year-round. This subtropical paradise, often called the "Island of Eternal Spring," is a treasure trove of natural beauty and cultural richness, making it an ideal destination for travelers seeking a blend of relaxation and adventure.
Nature enthusiasts will be in their element in Madeira. The island's laurisilva forests are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and offer a network of levadas (irrigation channels) that provide miles of scenic walking and hiking paths through verdant greenery and past cascading waterfalls. The dramatic cliffs of Cabo Girão offer breathtaking views over the ocean, while Pico do Arieiro and Pico Ruivo, the highest peaks on the island, present challenging hikes that reward with panoramic vistas.
Madeira's capital, Funchal, is a charming city with a relaxed atmosphere, historic architecture, and lovely botanical gardens. The Mercado dos Lavradores is a vibrant market where visitors can sample local fruits, vegetables, and flowers. The city's old town, with its cobbled streets and painted doors, is a delightful area to explore, offering a glimpse into the island's culture and history.
The island is also famous for its unique Madeira wine, and a visit to a local winery is a must for oenophiles. Here, you can learn about the wine-making process and taste different varieties of this fortified wine that has been produced on the island for centuries.
For those looking to unwind, Madeira's coastline is dotted with natural swimming pools formed by volcanic rocks, such as those in Porto Moniz, providing a unique and refreshing swimming experience. The island's waters are also a haven for marine life, making it an excellent spot for whale and dolphin watching, as well as scuba diving.
Madeira's festivals are a highlight, with the annual Flower Festival in spring and the New Year's Eve fireworks display in Funchal being particularly spectacular. These events showcase the island's vibrant culture and are a joy to witness.
In essence, Madeira offers a diverse array of attractions that cater to all types of travelers. From its natural wonders and outdoor activities to its cultural experiences and gastronomic delights, Madeira is a destination that promises to enchant and inspire all who visit.
