Gaula Residence by Madeira Sun Travel

Welcome to Gaula Residence by Homie, Your Home Away from Home on Madeira Island!



This charming accommodation, located in a tranquil residential area, is the ideal destination for those seeking to combine modern comfort with the serenity of the countryside.



Here, you will find everything you need for an unforgettable stay, in a welcoming environment surrounded by the natural beauty of the region.



Gaula Residence offers two spacious bedrooms, both with private bathrooms, providing comfort and privacy to all guests.



On the first floor, there is a second bathroom available for greater convenience.



The kitchen, fully equipped, is prepared to meet all your needs, with facilities such as an oven, microwave, coffee machine and much more. Even the smallest details have been considered, including a washing machine, iron and ironing board, so that nothing is lacking during your stay.



The interior spaces stand out for their generosity and luminosity, with large windows that let in natural light and create a welcoming environment.



The living room and dining room in an open concept offer direct access to the terrace, where you can relax and contemplate the stunning view that extends to the horizon, with the blue sea as a backdrop.



Although located in a rural setting, Gaula Residence is strategically situated just five minutes from the motorway, ensuring quick and easy connections to all corners of the island.



Whether to relax, explore local culture or venture along natural trails, this property offers everything you need for unforgettable holidays!



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.



Hey 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.



Our team, composed of experts in hospitality, communication, finance, maintenance, and design, is committed to taking care of every stage of the experience — from pre-booking to check-out. We work every day to create stays that leave lasting memories.



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.



Be a traveller looking for a special spot or a homeowner seeking someone who will care for your home with dedication, you are in the right place.



Homie - Your home away from home, on the beautiful island of Madeira.
