The house
A cozy house with an ocean view you'll never get tired of.

What to expect
We hate strict schedules. But we've got you.
We let you actually focus during the day, so your manager doesn't kick you out of your job. When the laptops close, pasta, wine, and sunsets take over. Weekends, the island is the boss.
Space to focus
Mornings are for work. Fast Wi-Fi in every room, desks that don't wobble, a coworking corner on the terrace, and another one downtown if you need a change of scene. We keep the house quiet when it needs to be quiet. No one's going to start a tomato-pulping session at 10am, promise.
Afternoons, we take care of you
There's always a community manager in the house. Casa Basilico spirit, top tier. Cooks, organizes, throws parties, drags people out for sunset drinks, knows where to get the good fish. They know the island, they know the town, and they know which restaurant is actually open on a Tuesday. You don't have to plan a thing.
Weekends packed
We know Madeira better than our own hometowns by now. Every spot, every viewpoint, every black-sand beach nobody talks about. Hikes, road trips, swims, levada walks, lazy lunches in mountain villages. Madeira is one of those places where you can come back five times and still find something new. We'll show you.

A scroll through what happens at the house.
Why Ponta do Sol, not Funchal
Why Ponta do Sol. Not Funchal.
Ponta do Sol is small, sunny, and weirdly magical. We know the baker, the barista, the surf guy, the lady at the fish market. Everything is walking distance. The supermarket, the pier, the cafés, the cowork.
After work, people jump off the pier. There's a free coworking space in town. There's an actual community of nomads here, with events almost every night of the week if you want them.
And the weather: Madeira has a thing called microclimates, which is a fancy way of saying every village has different weather. Ponta do Sol drew the long straw. It's the warmest, sunniest spot on the island. That's not us being dramatic, that's just the geography.
The bigger family
Banana House is the year-round Madeira base of Casa Basilico.
A pop-up coliving brand that's hosted 180+ remote workers across Tarifa, Las Palmas, Madeira and Pipa. Same cooking, same big table, same idea. Banana House is where it stays put all year.

Good questions
Before you pack the rain jacket
One month. That said, we sometimes make exceptions for two weeks. Send us a message and we'll see what we can do.
No. The summer chapter is a fixed cohort with set start and end dates. Banana House runs year-round. Pick any month, arrive when you want, leave when you're ready. Same team, no calendar.
Everything but your groceries. All bills (electricity, water, fast WiFi), weekly cleaning of your room and the shared spaces, and cleaning supplies. From €997/month. No booking fees, no surprise extras.
Yes. Fresh towels, blankets and sheets all provided. Sheets changed every two weeks, towels weekly. Just bring yourself.
Three ways: rent a car (handy for hikes and the free parking spot), grab a Bolt for around €35-40, or book Mr. Elso, our private driver, on +351 963 674 092. About 30 minutes from the airport.
Of course. A second person sharing your room on a full month is +€100/month. Tell us when you book so we set the room up for two.
Washing machine, yes. Dryer, no. You won't miss it. The island climate and the balconies dry everything in a few sunny hours. 🌿
A light rain jacket (Madeira weather is moody and wonderful), proper hiking shoes for the levadas, a swimsuit for the sea, and one warm sweater for the evenings. The rest you can buy five minutes downhill.
