Community

When one thinks of the perfect workation place, this is what comes to mind: excellent internet, quiet and away from tourists, big garden, great workspace, and leisure facilities - exactly what this stay offers. The villa was transformed into a dream coworking and coliving, where guests can expect to spend a cool, relaxed, and eventful time together. This coliving is all about welcoming remote workers into a community that creates memories and connections. In the villa, all guests live together in a shared paradise - not as an all-inclusive fun trip, but rather experiencing a nice and exciting time together. All guests are jointly responsible for cleanliness (they can decide to hire a professional) and everything should be relaxed and stress-free - like living together with newly met friends. In terms of activities, there’s plenty to do: you can play table tennis in the garden, or jump around on a trampoline in the garden while listening to your favorite music. In the surrounding area, you can also go hiking, surfing, horse riding, canyoning, paragliding… the list goes on. We welcome like-minded people from around the world.

About Santo da Serra

We are in the middle of nature in a very local village. Santo Da Serra is a civil parish in the interior of the municipality of Machico, on the island of Madeira. The parish is adjacent to another parish in the neighboring municipality of Santa Cruz to the south, which is also named Santo António da Serra. The main economic activity of the parish has long been agriculture, benefiting from the fertile and green lands found throughout the parish.
