King's Shelter by Homie, your Home away from Home on Madeira Island!

Discover the perfect refuge in the north of Madeira Island with King's Shelter, a charming rural accommodation in Santa do Porto Moniz, surrounded by stunning and untouched nature. This is the ideal location for those seeking peace, tranquillity, and the opportunity to reconnect with what truly matters, away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

With capacity for 4 people, the King's Shelter offers maximum comfort in two cosy rooms, both equipped with double beds, one of them en suite.

On the ground floor, you will find a fully equipped kitchen and dining room in an open space, as well as a living room ready for moments of socialising and relaxation.

On the outside, the barbecue area promises to be the highlight for unforgettable gatherings among family and friends.

The location is simply unbeatable. Just a few minutes from some of the island's most famous attractions, such as the natural pools of Porto Moniz and the imposing cable car of Achadas da Cruz, the King's Shelter provides a perfect balance between relaxation and adventure. For nature lovers, the proximity to iconic levadas, such as the Levada da Ribeira da Janela and the Levada do Moinho, is an irresistible invitation to explore the fascinating landscapes of Madeira.

We recommend car rental to make the most of your stay, with outdoor private parking available for greater convenience and safety. In just a few minutes by car, you can explore the picturesque Ponta do Pargo and the charming village of Prazeres, where you will find excellent local cuisine restaurants and the lovely Quinta Pedagógica dos Prazeres, a unique space to get to know the local fauna and taste regional products made on-site.

At King's Shelter, every detail was carefully considered to offer an unforgettable experience, where rest and exploration come together in perfect harmony.

Since 2017, we have been receiving travellers from all over the world on our beloved Madeira Island, with the commitment to provide memorable experiences and excellent service. We started as Madeira Sun Travel, a name that reflected the sun, comfort, and welcoming spirit that has always guided us.

Over time, we realised that we wanted to go further: more proximity, more authenticity, more connection.
This is how Homie was born. More than a new name — a new way of being.

At Homie, we believe that travelling is more than discovering new places — it's about feeling at home, even far away from home. That's why we don't just hand over keys: we offer warm welcomes, recommendations that turn into unforgettable discoveries, and accommodations cared for with the same affection we would treat our own home.

Each stay is thought out in detail to be special and welcoming. Each house has its own story. And each guest is received like an old friend.

We are recognised for our personalised attention, the trust of owners who choose us to manage their spaces, and the positive reviews from our guests, which reflect the quality of 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 enjoy Madeira to the fullest.
