The room is in an open-plan layout with the kitchen, which is fully equipped with modern appliances, perfect for preparing exquisite meals or a tranquil breakfast.Each accommodation also has two bedrooms, one with a double bed and another with two single beds, both with access to a balcony with sea views. On each floor, you will find a bathroom, one of which is equipped with a shower.These accommodations were recently built, having been prepared with high-quality materials and with a contemporary decoration, designed to welcome you and your travel companions!The José António Houses by Homie are located near Reis Magos Beach, a beautiful pebble beach typically from Madeira, which you cannot miss visiting. The typical Santana houses are 20 minutes away by car, so there are no excuses for not taking a typical photo next to them!Since 2017, we have been receiving travellers from all over the world on our beloved Madeira Island, with the commitment to provide 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 proximity, more authenticity, more connection.This is how Homie was born. More than a new name - a new way of being.Hey Homie, we believe that travelling is more than discovering new places - it's about feeling at home, even far away from home. That's why we don't just hand over keys: we offer warm welcomes, recommendations that turn into unforgettable discoveries, and accommodations cared for with the same affection we would treat our own home.Each stay is thought out in detail to be special and welcoming. Each house has its own story. And each guest is received like an old friend.Our team, composed of experts in hospitality, communication, finance, maintenance, and design, is committed to taking care of every stage of the experience - from pre-booking to check-out. We work every day to create stays that leave lasting memories.We are recognised for our personalised attention, the trust of owners who choose us to manage their spaces, and the positive reviews from our guests, which reflect the quality of service we provide.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 enjoy Madeira to the fullest.Be a traveller looking for a special spot or a homeowner seeking someone who will care for your home with dedication, you are in the right place.We further inform that check-ins after 22:00 have an extra fee of €20, payable to our host at the time of check-in.Homie - Your home away from home, on the beautiful island of Madeira. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the accommodation: Free WiFi ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Chef service ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (limited availability) - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Bicycles - Water park - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Whale watching nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Bicycles - Garden - Property located in a resort - Unit size: 1,292 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor pool, a heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27320000/27311300/27311209/2fc43e5f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa Ricardo - A luxury villa with HEATED POOL and magnificent SEA VIEWS!
