our home

Show up any month. Leave when you're ready.

Banana House is the always-on Madeira home of Casa Basilico's coliving family. It runs year-round, with a one-month minimum and no group cohort calendar — you don't wait for a chapter to start or end. Pick a month, move in, cook with the house on Wednesday, and stay as long as it feels right. Same team, same table, same warm chaos behind every Casa Basilico summer — just rooted in one whitewashed house above the Atlantic, all year long. 🌿

Life in Ponta do Sol

There's a rhythm to the week here.

Wednesdays we cook

One long table, too much food, the whole house. Our weekly family dinner is where strangers turn into the friends you'll visit next year. 🍝

Saturdays we hike

Levadas, peaks and cliff-edge coast. We rotate the classics — PR8 Ponta de São Lourenço, PR6 25 Fontes, PR1 Pico do Areeiro — then reward ourselves with lunch.

Every day we work

A desk in every room, ocean views from R3, R4 and R7, and the Digital Nomads Madeira coworking HQ a five-minute walk down the hill.

Why Ponta do Sol — not Funchal

A village you can walk across, with a community that already knows your name.

Ponta do Sol is small on purpose. Thirty minutes west of Funchal, it's a sunny pocket of the island with an eternal spring of 18–20°C, the sea at the bottom of the hill, and a remote-work scene that found each other years ago.

  • The (semi-legendary) only free parking spot in town
  • A Slack community of 1,000+ nomads on the island
  • The Wednesday lunch ritual nobody skips twice
  • Eternal-spring climate, 18–20°C most of the year

Good questions

Before you pack the rain jacket

One month. After that you extend month to month for as long as you like — plenty of people arrive for one and stay for six.
No. The summer chapter is a fixed cohort with set start and end dates. Banana House is always-on — 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 all cleaning supplies. From €997/month — no booking fees, no surprise extras.
Yes — fresh towels, blankets and bed sheets are all provided. Sheets are changed every two weeks, towels weekly. Just bring yourself.
Three easy ways: rent a car (handy for hikes and the free parking spot), grab a Bolt for around €35–40, or book Mr. Elso, our trusted private driver, on +351 963 674 092. It's 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 — and 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.
