Contrast offers intense and sharp experiences. In Sofia’s Place you breath the local community spirit and culture in a sophisticated and cosmopolitan accommodation, in the heart of one of the most exclusive, dreamy and romantic places around. As Jardim do Mar itself, Sofia's Place offers the local and the universal, the unique and the diverse, the rural environment and the urbane comfort. Sofia was born in the pitoresque village. And as roots are kept intact, Jardim do Mar became more cosmopolitan as it attracted artists (writers, poets, painters), surfers and nature and tranquility lovers from all over.

Christmas Greetings

Christmas lights in Funchal (in front of the town hall of the capital), in Madeira
Madeirans live Christmas and New Year's Eve very intensively.

For this time of the year the streets of Funchal get beautifully decorated with thousands of lights. New Year’s Eve fireworks and activities also make Madeira Island one of the most attractive ‘reveillons’ destinations in the world.

Sofia's Place wishes you a Merry Christmas.

Christmas Tree

Welcoming atmosphere
We have provided a Christmas (pine) Tree to welcome our guests that will spend the next three weeks in Sofia's Place. Christmas time is really intense in Jardim do Mar. The atmosphere is very special. The tree was placed in the living room by the big glass window.

New picture in the surf bedroom

Tony Kitchell (photo by Andrea)
 
Tony Kitchell is a dear friend strongly connected with Jardim do Mar and Sofia's Place.

Tony helped painting some details inside eleven years ago and there is some art of his in the house.

Now, in Sofia's Place there is a picture of Tony hanging on the wall in the Surf bedroom.
