Tradition, Nature and Comfort by the Sea
Welcome to Casas do Calhau Miúdo, a unique retreat located on Madeira’s north coast, where the ocean and mountains come together in a landscape of extraordinary beauty. Here, tranquillity, nature, and authentic Madeiran charm invite you to enjoy a truly memorable stay.
The origins of Casas do Calhau Miúdo date back to 1935, when the property served as a family home for several generations. The estate included a traditional Madeiran house, an outdoor kitchen with a fireplace, and a small storage building with a wine press used to produce wine from locally grown grapes. In 2023, a careful restoration project was completed, preserving the property's historic character and Madeiran identity while providing modern comfort.
Located in Seixal, the property enjoys a privileged seafront setting, offering breathtaking views of the Porto Moniz islets, the surrounding mountains, and Porto da Laje, where you can take a refreshing swim in the Atlantic just a few steps away.
Today, Casas do Calhau Miúdo consists of two independent houses and several shared outdoor areas designed for comfort, relaxation, and connection with nature. Guests can enjoy a swimming pool with a sun deck, an outdoor dining area with a barbecue, and a viewpoint offering panoramic views of both the ocean and the mountains.
Breakfast is provided on a self-service basis, with all the essentials supplied so that guests can start the day at their own pace. The barbecue area is available for preparing the traditional Madeiran espetada, while nearby restaurants offer an excellent opportunity to discover the region’s rich gastronomy.
Just a few minutes away, you will find some of Madeira’s most iconic attractions, including the volcanic natural pools of Seixal and Porto Moniz, stunning waterfalls, and the enchanting Fanal Forest, perfect for hiking and exploring.
