About this property

Villa Ricardo - A luxury villa with HEATED POOL and magnificent SEA VIEWS!

The Villa Ricardo is a charming villa located in a beautiful slope above the entrance of Porto da Cruz.

It is a large property with a high level comfortable accommodation in a quiet location, has several terraces enjoying uninterrupted panoramic sea view, and a subtropical garden of exotic fruit trees and small banana trees.

The property owner valued a stylish and friendly environment. The house has 3 double bedrooms, (with the possibility of an extra bed and cradle for baby), all with private bathroom (shower) and TVset. In the winter all the rooms are heated by a device that recovers the heat released by the fireplace, and automatically distributes it to the rooms.

The sitting-room is equipped with TVset, DVD, Stereo System, Computer, Internet WI-FI, Safety Deposit Box, WC, and the kitchen is fully equipped.

Outside you can enjoy the subtropical garden of exotic fruit trees, the heated pool and the sunbathing area with views to the ocean and to the Village. It's a truly magical and relaxing scenario!

In September, wine is made in Villa Ricardo, by a centennial traditional process and our guests are invited to participate in the making of wine!
There is also a historical wine cellar where guests are invited to taste our wines!!

if you are looking for a Villa with a private and heated pool, inserted in the nature and in a quiet environment, the Villa Ricardo is perfect for you!

The Villa Ricardo is the opportuniity to spend your vacations freely, with privacy, close to the sea and even closer to nature...

Short stay
House was comfortable and safe. The heated pool was the gem of the house. Being able to walk to town for groceries and Restaurants was Super nice. Not sure if it’s the season but the sun doesn’t hit the patios, Because they are Blocked By The hill. Town is nice and quiet and friendly

Porta da Cruz
Check in and info about the property were excellent. The owner and property manager were both there to show us the property and answer questions as well as give us tastes of Ricardo’s wine. Madeira and treat were there as a welcome. The house was spotless. It was too cool to use the pool but there was great outdoor space and the view was beautiful and the garden private. An additional terrace was off 2 of the bedrooms with the pool area accessed through one of the bedrooms. We loved being able to walk into town for dinner and enjoyed each of the places we tried right on the water. The kitchen was small and dated but we just used it for breakfast and lunch prep. The property is comfortable but modest and for that reason our rating is 4 . However, it was a great location for what we wanted do on our visit and met all of our needs

Charming Village and Villa
The house is beautiful, clean, comfortable and full of great amenities. We loved sitting on the front porch taking in the water views over the village. No need to venture far as the village is walkable, has great shops for basic food and the restaurants are all wonderful! Major grocery store is a 10 minute drive. Make sure to do the waterfront walking path at the village especially if the waves are on the larger size. It’s quite a show. The property around the villa are beautiful and lush.

Lovely Place, I wish was my own
Our group of 4 had an amazing stay at Villa Ricardo. From the moment we arrived and were greeted by the hostess and the owner's very sweet father, our incredible experience began. Loved the tour of the house as we arrived, helped us navigate better during our stay, versus having to figure it out on our own. The family who owns the house clearly values their property and their guests experience. We used the pool and outdoor shower every single day. It was a short walk (although slightly steep) to the village of Porto da Cruz. We didn't use the small kitchen very much, but it was decently stocked and had a dishwasher which we appreciated. Internet only really worked in the living room, but that kept us off our devices and more present with each other, a hidden gift. The beds were comfortable, an extra pillows were available, which is great for my bad neck. No screens on the windows meant we needed bug repellant to sleep, but we sure loved waking up to the sound of the distant church bells! It was such a great stay, we will definitely seek this special place out again on our next visit! Thanks for everything!
