### Simone haystack by Homie

Palheiro Simone by Homie, your home away from home in Lamaceiros, Porto Moniz   
  
Upon entering this cosy T1, it is impossible not to feel at home. The living room perfectly integrates in harmony with the dining area and the fully equipped kitchen, creating a practical, bright and inviting space. Here, every detail has been carefully considered to make your everyday life simple and comfortable.   
  
The true charm reveals itself in the breathtaking view from the kitchen window. While preparing a meal, one can let oneself be enveloped by the unique landscape that only the nature of Madeira offers.   
  
When descending to the lower floor, you will find a spacious room with a king-size bed, ideal for nights of deep relaxation, and a modern bathroom with a shower. The air conditioning ensures the perfect ambience for moments of relaxation after a day full of adventures on the island.   
  
From this floor, you have access to the outdoor area, where you will find a fully equipped washroom and a convenient grill - perfect for a relaxed meal outdoors.   
  
Whether for a romantic holiday or for a few days of relaxation, surrounded by the tranquillity of the mountains and the beauty of the sea, the Palheiro Simone by Homie is the ideal setting to create unforgettable memories.   
  
This charming rural area near Porto Moniz offers a perfect mix of dramatic coastal landscape, nature and traditional Madeiran life. The village is best known for its natural volcanic swimming pools - unique seawater pools formed by lava rock and refreshed by the Atlantic, ideal for swimming, relaxing and enjoying panoramic sea views.   
  
Surrounded by lush landscapes and rugged cliffs, the region is a gateway to picturesque hiking trails, viewpoints, and the rich laurel forest stock, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.   
  
You are just a short drive from local black sand beaches, typical restaurants with fresh seafood and convenient shops like Mini Mercado Onda Azul, which are only 550 m away. Public transport (bus stop approx. 190 m) makes exploring easy.   
  
Whether you are here for the nature, sea views, or peaceful village life, this part of Madeira is warm, inviting, and full of unforgettable experiences.   
  
Since 2017, we have been welcoming travellers from all over the world to our beloved island of Madeira with the promise of unforgettable experiences and excellent service.   
  
We began 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 proximity, more authenticity, more connection.   
  
So Homie was born. More than just a new name - a new way of being. Every stay is thought through in detail to be special and inviting.   
  
Every house has its own story. And every guest is welcomed like an old friend.   
  
Beyond comfort and hospitality, we offer additional services upon request such as car rental, activity bookings, personalised experiences and much more - all so that you can fully enjoy Madeira.   
  
If you are a traveller looking for a special place, or a homeowner seeking someone who will care for your home with dedication, you are in exactly the right place.   
  
Please be informed that check-ins after 10:00 PM will incur additional costs of £20, which are to be paid in cash to our host upon arrival.
