Besides tourism, Estreito da Calheta is located on the sunny side of the island, which can be visited all year round. We have no direct neighbours. Only a few hundred meters behind our house the mountain world begins with its unique bay laurel forests, which were declared World Natural Heritage by UNESCO and can be reached in about 15 minutes by car. Our nearest levada (Levada Nova) can be climbed in about 20 minutes on foot.
For small purchases (or fresh bread rolls) there is a minimarket 10 minutes walk from our house.
At the sea, at the Calhetastrand (about 5 minutes by car), there is an artificial yellow sandy beach, which is calmed by breakwaters. You can swim well here even if the sea has high waves. There is also a large supermarket (gluten-free and vegan products in stock) with a large daily fresh fish stand.
Estrela Calheta (about 2 km away): There you will find small shops, bakeries, an inexpensive cobbler, pharmacies and a medical centre, as well as a German physiotherapist. You will also find a modern art museum on the cliffs "Casa das Mudas", with rotating exhibitions.
Getting there
The distance from the airport to Casa Biologica is about 45 km. We will send you a separate directions when you complete your booking. The journey time is about one hour. The highway-like road is well marked and with our directions it is easy to find us
Host informationOur Madeira "adventure" began in 1994 with a one-week short holiday in Madeira. When we arrived there, we felt only a short time later that our health situation had changed dramatically for the better. We decided to buy an older, empty house that same week and rebuilt it according to our ideas using ecological building methods as far as possible.
Later we decided to rent it out to nice holiday guests.
