Coração da Madeira - Cidrão by Madeira Sun Travel

In the heart of the island, in the heart of tradition, discover Your Home Away from Home!



Imagine waking up to the gentle sound of nature, surrounded by majestic mountains. It is in the heart of the emblematic village of Curral das Freiras that a unique refuge is found: the Heart of Madeira.



This three-storey accommodation, with one apartment per floor, has been carefully designed to reflect the soul of the village. Every detail transports us to the essence of Curral das Freiras — from the colours and textures inspired by the mountainous landscape, to references to chestnuts and the famous artisanal ginja, symbols of local hospitality.



The choice of the name "O Cidrão" is no accident. It refers to the mythical Montado do Cidrão, an area of great natural and cultural value in the parish, where the legend of the Bicho Cidrão dwells — a restless spirit of a shepherd who, according to tradition, haunts the mountains with his bellow that announces storms. This legendary spirit is part of the community's imagination, representing the deep connection between the people and the untamed nature that surrounds them. By naming the accommodation after this, we honour that heritage and evoke the mysterious, mystical and enchanting side of Curral das Freiras.



The apartment offers two cosy bedrooms — one with a double bed and another with two single beds — a modern bathroom with shower, fully equipped open-plan kitchen with living room, air conditioning in all rooms, laundry area and shared private parking.



The location could not be better: right in the centre of the village, just a few steps from the main church and all essential services. Here, you are at the door to incredible trails and viewpoints such as Poço dos Chefes, where the communion between nature and community is evident.



The Heart of Madeira – Cidrão is not just an accommodation. It is a journey to the heart of deep Madeira, where tradition, legend and comfort come together to provide a truly unforgettable experience.
