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 place for those seeking peace, tranquillity and the opportunity to reconnect with what really matters, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

With capacity for 4 people, the King's Shelter offers maximum comfort in two cosy bedrooms, 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 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 between 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 impressive cable car at Achadas da Cruz, 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 Madeira's fascinating landscapes.

We recommend car rental to make the most of your stay, with private outdoor parking available for greater convenience and security. Within a few minutes' drive, you can explore the picturesque Ponta do Pargo and the charming village of Prazeres, where you will find excellent local gastronomy restaurants and the lovely Quinta Pedagógica dos Prazeres, a unique space to discover the local fauna and savour regional products made on-site.

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

Guests are responsible for the proper use of the accommodation and its respective equipment. Damage, loss or misuse identified during or after the stay may be subject to the application of a damage fee, intended to cover repair, replacement or extraordinary cleaning costs.

Since 2017, we have welcomed travellers from all over the world to our beloved island of Madeira, with a commitment to providing 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 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 hire, activity bookings, personalised experiences and much more — all so that you can make the most of Madeira.

Whether you are a traveller looking for a special spot or a property owner looking for someone to care for your home with dedication, you are in the right place.
