Welcome to On the Rocks, your off-grid retreat where serenity meets full seclusion. Surrounded by the soothing sounds of cascading waterfalls, unwind with panoramic views that stretch across the horizon. Nestled in the heart of the island (15 min to both coasts), with hiking trails at your doorstep, you’re perfectly positioned to explore or relax. Whether seeking adventure or sun-soaked relaxation, this peaceful sanctuary offers the perfect balance—a home base to discover or a haven to recharge.

The space
"On the Rocks" is a true testament to living in harmony with nature, fully powered by the sun and nourished by the filtered waters of the nearby river. This self-sustaining gem perfectly blends cutting-edge solar technology with luxurious comfort. A beautifully restored, traditionally built Madeiran home, that offers a rare opportunity to experience authentic island history while enjoying every modern convenience. Nestled in total seclusion, this serene mountain retreat offers complete privacy, making it the ideal space for relaxation or creativity.

Guest access
On the Rocks offers two fully private, independently bookable homes (On the Rocks 1 & On the Rocks 2). You are currently viewing the larger house (On the Rocks 1), situated at the top of the property, accessible only by foot due to the steep incline of the private road that separates the two homes. Please note that parking is available at the base of the property, and you'll need to walk up a set of stairs to reach your home.

To view On the Rocks 2 please open this link: On The Rocks 2

If you're interested in renting both homes, feel free to reach out. Thank you!

Other things to note
- Please note that there is a steep incline with a set of stairs you’ll need to walk up to reach the house.

- The property is equipped with two gas heaters to keep you warm on cooler nights.

- Help yourself to as many locally grown apples as you’d like—enjoy!
Thank you for choosing us! We’re excited to host you soon.

Warm regards,
The On the Rocks Team
