Private Dining

Your villa becomes the setting for an evening to savour. A selected chef prepares a menu around your tastes, dietary needs and occasion.

Discover the experience

An evening that belongs entirely to you

Imagine a long dinner with the people you came to Madeira to spend time with: no restaurant journey, no fixed table time, and your own villa as the setting. One of our selected chefs prepares the meal in your holiday home, so the evening feels personal from the first conversation about the menu.

Make it a celebration, a relaxed family dinner or simply the evening you have been looking forward to. Tell us your food preferences, dietary requirements and the occasion. We will discuss the menu and arrangements with you before confirming.

Discover the character and stories of Madeira’s wines through a private tasting arranged around your stay.

A morning with a little more space

Before the day fills with plans, take a moment to notice where you are. A private yoga session at your holiday home creates time to move, breathe and settle into the rhythm of your stay. Share the session with your companions, or make it a quiet moment just for you.

Private Wellbeing

Make space for yourself. Tell us how you would like to slow down and recharge, and we’ll help arrange a personal wellbeing experience.

Your own way to switch off

Rest means something different to everyone. You may want a gentle pause in an active itinerary, a private moment away from the group, or a stay with more room for wellbeing. This experience begins with what you would like to feel, rather than a fixed programme you have to fit into.

Tell us what helps you slow down and recharge. We will explore the available options around your stay and confirm the activity, setting and arrangements with you before booking.

A day with the Atlantic as your setting

Madeira’s wines, with an ocean view. Combine a private tasting on board with a different perspective of the coastline.

The island in your glass. The ocean around you.
