Map

Location

The Quinta do Arco by Pestana is our insider tip for those seeking tranquility or romantic getaways. Nestled amidst the green mountains of northern Madeira, it's an ideal base for hiking. Harmoniously integrated into the rural life of the region, you'll enjoy peaceful days here, far from the hustle and bustle of the island's capital, Funchal, in the south. In the small village of “Arco de Sao Jorge,” you'll find shops and the popular restaurant “The Arco.” Funchal is about a 50-minute drive (50 km) away. Madeira’s international airport is approximately 37 km away. We recommend booking a rental car (EDV code: FNC150A).

Seasonal information

A stay at Quinta do Arco is particularly rewarding during the summer months when over 1500 rose varieties are in bloom, emitting an irresistible fragrance. As a guest of the property, you naturally have unlimited and free access. However, a stay is also worthwhile in the winter months, when you can comfortably relax by the crackling fireplace in your villa with a glass of wine and reflect on your day.
