Location

The Quinta do Arco by Pestana is our insider tip for those seeking tranquility or for couples in love. It is located amidst green mountains in the north of Madeira and is ideally suited as a starting point for hikes. Harmoniously integrated into the rural life of the region, you will spend rather peaceful days here, far from the bustling island capital Funchal in the south of the island. In the small village of "Arco de Sao Jorge" you will find shops and the popular restaurant "The Arco". Funchal city center can be reached in approx. 50 minutes by car (50 km). Madeira International Airport is approx. 37 km away. We recommend booking a rental car (EDV code: FNC150A).

Seasonal information

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