Casa da Camacha is a two-bedroom holiday house in Camacha, the village on Porto Santo's north side, registered as local accommodation 28146/AL for up to four guests. It is about 0.9 km in a straight line from the summit of Pico do Castelo and about 3 km from the beach at Vila Baleira, so it suits visitors who want quiet and the island's hills rather than the seafront.
Where exactly is it?
Booking.com gives the address as Estrada Velha da Camacha 20; the national register lists Travessa do Sossego 20, postcode 9400-010. In a straight line the house is about 0.9 km from Pico do Castelo (437 m), about 1.35 km from the Fonte da Areia viewpoint on the north coast, about 1.8 km from the airport terminal and about 3 km from Vila Baleira's Centro bus stop. The nearest part of Porto Santo beach is about 3 km away, so plan on driving, cycling or taking the bus to the sand.
How do you get around?
OpenStreetMap shows SIGA bus line 991 running between Centro and Camacha, but the stops in Camacha are not mapped, so check the current SIGA timetable and the nearest stop with the host. A car or bike makes the most sense from here; the listing mentions bicycle parking and free parking.
What is the house like?
According to the listing, the house has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a living room with a sofa and dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is a washing machine. Outside are a terrace with sea views, a sun terrace, an outdoor fireplace, barbecue facilities and outdoor seating. Wi-Fi is free.
What can you walk to from here?
Camacha is the start of PS PR 3, Levada do Pico Castelo (4.1 km, Camacha – Ribeiro Formoso – Capela da Graça), but the IFCN list updated on 2 October 2026 shows it as closed. PS PR 2, Vereda do Pico do Castelo, starts at Moledo and was open. Check the IFCN page and our trail booking and fees page before walking, and see the Porto Santo region guide and Porto Santo guide for the wider island.
