Tranquil with seaview|Ocean Hills Terrace Studio

Perched in the peaceful countryside of Fajã da Ovelha, with stunning sea-views, this beautiful, refurbished complex is housed within a traditional centenary Madeiran property, that has been carefully restored to preserve its authentic character while offering all the comforts of modern living.

Being immersed in nature is part of what makes this place so special. From time to time, you may notice small insects or the occasional Madeiran wall lizard, which are completely harmless and a natural part of the surrounding environment.
