The Modern & Recycled House is a beautiful, romantic and charming open space flat. There are floor to ceiling windows surrounding half the apartment, allowing you to get all the light and the outside view if you wish (website hidden) was built from scratch and combines recycled (made by us) materials with modern pieces. Located right in the heart of the quiet and beautiful town of Machico, its about 50 meters from the beach (rocky and sandy) door to door with great restaurants.The Airport 5 minutes away.
I was born in Madeira and after spending 8 years in Lisbon, where i got a Master in clinical Psychology and a Graduation in Leadership and Development Teams, i´ve decided to come back to my roots and in good time i did it!  Even thought i like to travel and do it as much and as often as i can, i just love my island and can never get enought of it.  I´m a quiet person, but always looking for something to do on my spare time. I like reading, travelling, watching movies, walking my dogs, do sports or just relaxing.  I love hiking and have a real passion for Levada Walks! you have great levadas near Machico and all around where you can go for a walk and enjoy nature and great places.  Madeira is truly a nature´s paradise. You can walk around lakes, visit stunning gardens, swim in amazing natural pools and several beaches (sandy or rocky, your choice) around the island.  You can go on a Dolphin and whale watching tour, walk in the middle of the woods for bird watching, geocaching and hiking, discovering waterfalls, try cannyoning or just relax surrounded by breathtaking views.  The weather is very unpredictable, never to cold, never too hot.
Tristão Vaz Teixeira and João Gonçalves Zarco disembarked on the beach of Machico, beginning the era of Portuguese discoveries. "We saw a land covered in trees until the sea and from that band the fog never descended from the range...We saw a great bay..." —Francisco Alcoforado, 15th Century chronicler You can watch the colorful Machico sitting in a calm, peaceful spot while enjoying a wonderful view and beautiful beaches. Always breathtaking is how i would describe it.  you have restaurants (portuguese and italian) supermarkets and several shops around your flat (a minute's walk).
