Casa Caramelo Rustic House

Casa Caramelo offers a 1 bedroom/ 1 bathroom accommodation on the ground floor of the house. This rustic house is located in a quiet rural part of Madeira in Raposeira (Faja da Ovelha) in Calheta parish. Casa Caramelo is a 100 years old traditional Madeirian stone house, which used to be a local school building. It has been recently renovated and provides all modern comfort inside. Ground floor accommodation (approx. 40 sq.m. total area) is a totally separate unit of the house, with separate entrance and car parking, to provide maximum comfort and privacy. Since the owner of Casa Caramelo and her dog (very friendly German Shepherd called Enola) live upstairs, the guests will be sharing the garden area.

For the guest's comfort this accommodation is equipped with all the usual features, such as bed linen and towels, free Wi-Fi, TV, washing machine, sun-loungers, etc.

Casa Caramelo is very well located:
15 minutes drive to Calheta beach, supermarket Pingo Doce, ATM and marina with lots of restaurants
5 minutes drive to the nearest BP petrol station and small supermarket
10 minutes drive from the light house of Ponta do Pargo, where you can watch amazing sunsets

Levada (irrigation channels) between Prazeres and Ponta do Pargo is 5 minutes walk from the house.
Minimarket and snack bar Papagaio is in a walking distance of 200 meters.

The owner provides 24/7 support to the guests.

A lovely place to relax and explore from
I loved my stay at Casa Caramelo. Irina was such a warm and welcoming host, with lots of great tips for exploring Madeira. The flat was perfect, with everything I needed for my stay. It was lovely to have access to the courtyard area, which had plenty of sun and shade if needed and it great fun to play with Enola, Irina's beautiful German Shepherd dog. I would very much like to come and stay again oned day, thank you Irina!

Charming house
Lovely and charming house located in an strategic location of Madeira, the house is located near Calheta beach which is the best in the island, also it’s located to short car ride to the meeting points of the nicest hiking walks such 25 Fontes, Risco waterfall, Lagoa Do Vento and Levada Dos Cedros. The property is also located at 35 mins car ride of the natural swimming pools in Porto Moniz. We really enjoyed the accessibility to those great locations. The house is cozy and adequately furnished. We shared the patio / garden with the owner and her dog Enola who were great hosts, Enola is a great and well behaved dog. Irina assisted us with our requests and gave us great tourist advice on places to go and avoid, she is a very kind and easy to get along lady. Overall I recommend the place for future guests.

Würden wir jederzeit wieder buchen
In unseren 2 Wochen Aufenthalt war Irina immer freundlich, zuvorkommend und stets darauf bedacht, dass es uns an nichts fehlt! Das Bett könnte für den ein oder anderen Gast vielleicht etwa zu hart sein. Ansonsten ist die Wohnung mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht. Wir würden wieder bei Irina buchen.

Unser Aufenthalt war wirklich super! Irina ist super freundlich und zuvorkommend und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! Inola ist super süß und war ein absolutes Highlight. Die Lage ist ruhig und schön und perfekt um von dort aus mit dem Auto den Rest der Insel zu erkunden.

Our stay
It was really great! Irina is very kind. She knows a lot about Madeira en what to do. Enola (her German shepherd) is also a lovely girl. We had an amazing stay. The house was clean and cozy. The location is not ideal if you don’t hire a car. But also not a problem if you have a rental car. Then it is very do-able We have no bad things to say about our stay!

Drei Wochen in Faja da Ovelha
Wir waren sehr zufrieden, nur die Lage war für unsere Unternehmungen nicht ganz so ideal. Wobei das ja unsere Entscheidung war. Wäschewechsel wöchentlich, Waschmaschine könnten wir benutzen die Ausstattung entspricht der Beschreibung. Irina die Vermieterin war überaus freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir hatten eine gute Zeit.

Entspannter Aufenthalt
Wir hatten entspannte Tage in dem Appartement und haben viel in der Sonne im Hof gesessen. Die Nachbarschaft ist ruhig. Es gibt in laufnähe eine nette Bar. In der Wohnung gibt es eine große, gut ausgestatteter Küche. Irina ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir kamen sehr spät an und sie empfing uns sogar mit Brötchen und Wein etc., damit wir etwas zu knabbern hatten. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen, wir können die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen. Ein Auto braucht man jedoch und die Höhe der Decke ist für große Leute wie uns ein wenig niedrig. Vielen lieben Dank, wir kommen gerne wieder.

Great stay!
We had a great stay at this location! Irina is a very lovely host and made sure we had the best time possible on the island. We also very much enjoyed the company of her enthusiastic dog Enola. The accommodation was good and had everything we needed. Though the ceiling was a bit too low for us tall people. The location was great with lots of places to go to nearby and we could easily reach most tourist/hiking/snorkling spots we wanted to see. It is more on the west side of the island so for activities on the east side you will have a bit longer drive. Overall we can definitely recommend a stay!
