Casas da Luz - Casa da Mãe by Madeira Sun Travel
In the heart of a sunny area, where harmony between the rural environment and modern comforts come together to create a unique Rural Tourism experience, welcome to Casas da Luz!
This enterprise is an oasis of tranquillity, situated in a stunning setting that offers a spectacular view over the sea and the majestic surrounding mountains.
It is estimated that the main house of this enterprise was built in the nineteenth century, around the year 1880, and was subject to reconstruction works in 1934. In the 1970s, the house was acquired by Agostinha da Luz and three generations of this family have grown up there to the present day. It is in homage to this matriarch that the name Casas da Luz arises. Between 2020 and 2023, this space of memories and tradition composed of the main house and the annexed buildings was subject to requalification and expansion works, with special care in the conservation of the various elements that characterise traditional Madeiran houses, including the stone walls and the wine press, where wine is still produced annually. Divided into three welcoming units, each designed to provide maximum comfort and privacy: the Casa da Mãe, divided over two floors, offers three spacious bedrooms; the Casa da Latada located on the upper floor composed of two bedrooms and the Casa da Pedreira, located on the ground floor, has a large bedroom.
Mother's House, a refuge for the Luz family for several years, is the perfect accommodation to provide family gatherings and unforgettable memories.
The accommodation is refurbished and furnished with refined taste, highlighting its modernity and the maintenance of excellent materials present from its origin. In its entrance hall, be enchanted by a spacious living room that extends to its dining area. You will also find a spacious and fully equipped kitchen prepared for the preparation of all your meals. As support for this floor, we provide a WC. On its upper floor, all bedrooms with sea views and private balcony, provide private bathrooms and shower facilities.
You will be presented with an infinity pool being the perfect place to relax, cool off and enjoy a relaxing dip whilst appreciating the stunning view that only Casas da Luz can offer you!
For culinary enthusiasts, we offer a small vegetable plantation and fruit trees to make your meals even more special. Feel at home and harvest the freshest, healthiest and seasonal products and incorporate them into your recipes.
Your days will begin in the best possible way with our delicious daily breakfast of local products prepared with great care!
To ensure your comfort during your stay with us, we provide regular cleaning service in each accommodation.
Furthermore, all our common areas will be cleaned daily, providing you with an immaculate and pleasant environment.
This rural tourism enterprise is the ideal refuge for those seeking a relaxing retreat with quality amenities, traditional and typical Madeiran features. Here, you will be able to connect with nature, enjoy picturesque views and experience the charm of country life, whilst enjoying comfort and convenience.

Over time, we realised that we wanted to go further: more closeness, more authenticity, more connection.
That's how Homie was born. More than a new name - a new way of being.
Hey Homie, we believe that travelling is more than discovering new places - it's feeling at home, even far from it. That's why we don't just hand over keys: we offer warm welcomes, recommendations that turn into unforgettable discoveries and accommodation cared for with the same affection we'd give our own home.
Each stay is thought through in detail to be special and welcoming. Each house has its own story. And each guest is received as an old friend.
Our team, composed of specialists in hospitality, communication, finances, maintenance and design, is committed to caring for every stage of the experience - from pre-booking to check-out. We work every day to create stays that leave you longing to return.
We are recognised for our personalised attention, for the trust of the owners who choose us to manage their spaces and for the positive reviews from our guests, which reflect the quality of the service we provide.
Beyond comfort and hospitality, we also provide, upon request, additional services such as car rental, activity bookings, personalised experiences and much more - all so that you can make the most of Madeira.

Fantastic stay
Everything is just right here. The accommodation is new, clean, spacious and well laid out. The location is perfect for a relaxing stay in the middle of banana plantations. The infinity pool is a dream. The view is breathtaking, both towards the sea and the neighboring valley. The hostess offers a fantastic service with home-grown fruit and vegetables, bread, coffee and much more.
Requests are dealt with immediately. From the hostess as well as from the employees of Madeira Sun Travel. Many thanks for a very relaxing stay.
We will definitely be back.

The house is as pictured. It felt like a fairly new home and had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. The owners were so sweet and left what felt like a welcome tray of delicious treats (fruits, milk, eggs, bread and more). The infinity pool was beautiful. The only unexpected thing was being unable to flush toilet paper into the toilets. It seems like a common practice to throw tissue in the bin instead of the toilet in public places around the island. I didn’t expect this in our accommodations. I guess I am a city girl at heart. Overall, our stay was lovely and the owners were super hospitable. This is my second visit to Madeira and the island is welcoming.

Een onvergetelijke vakantie
Alles maar dan ook alles was in orde. Een vriendelijke ontvangst. Een prachtig verblijf. De mama was heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Het huis voor 6 personen is zeer goed uitgerust. Alles is voorzien. Het zwembad is zalig. De omgeving heeft veel te bieden. We hebben wandelingen gedaan en dolfijnen gaan spotten. Ponta do Sol is een leuk dorp.
Eigenlijk niets, het is al super goed!
