The Casas da Vereda were born from our travelling experiences and will to offer high quality accommodation in the world class touristic destination of Madeira Island. The location was selected due to its swift accessibility, quietness and sun exposure all year around, as well as for not being too high in altitude which would compromise the weather and temperature due to the possible cloud cover on Madeira mountains. Three patches of land were acquired from 2009 to 2014 to complete one "poio": local word for a terraced piece of land, of circa 1'500 sqm. The land carried two traditional stone houses that were fully refurbished: Casa Palheiro (a little barn) and Casa Rural (the master house). A third house (the 2 bedrooms Casa Eco) was build from scratch and in harmony with the older existing buildings around a shared heated swimming pool, and with a high focus on design, comfort and practicality.

The Casas Da Vereda are situated in Estreito da Calheta, at Vereda do Girão de Lá, 2. In Madeira and Açores, a “vereda” is a narrow footpath to access houses or patches of agricultural land. Casas Da Vereda - The Footpath Houses. Ironically, one year after opening the property an agricultural road was built along the footpath leading to the entrance: it is seldom used but enables motorised access to the nearby fields and few houses. Consequently there now is road access to the property, even though parking is not possible as the road is too narrow. The Casas Da Vereda are: 50m to a Supermarket, 70m to a Snack Bar, 1 minute drive to the express way running along the coast, 5 to 10 minutes drive to the beaches (Jardim do Mar / Paul do Mar / Calheta), 15 minutes drive to Levada (irrigation channels) and Mountain walks, 30 minutes drive to Funchal, and 50 minutes drive to Airport. Public parking is available 150m from the property door and road access is possible to drop-off and unload. The Drive Itinerary Map, Instructions and a Local Access Map are shown in the Photo Gallery: please check where to exit the express way and to park your car when you reach Casas Da Vereda.
