Detailed Overview

Vila Azul has gorgeous wood flooring throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, an elegant kitchen, a bathroom with a jetted tub and in-floor heating, and a fenced back yard. Plenty of entertainment options—most of the major streaming services for watching movies, shows, and some sports; a good selection of board games; enjoy time on the deck or around the fire pit; the little ones can entertain themselves at their own play table with books, coloring books, and games.

Great neighborhood with short walk to parks, shops, restaurants, and the Pheasant Branch Conservancy. Quick and easy access to the Beltline (Route 12), downtown Madison, and surrounding areas.

The Space

Come to Vila Azul and stay in style. It's a great place to cook and hang out.

Use the gas stove and oven in the well-equipped kitchen or cook outside using the gas grill.

Besides the beautiful kitchen, warm and welcoming living and dining rooms, 3 lovely bedrooms, and the feature-rich bathroom, you'll have plenty of entertainment options if you choose to stay in instead of taking advantage of all the Madison area has to offer.

Turn on our 50" Roku-enabled TV and enjoy the Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu, MLB TV, Netflix, Paramount+, and Starz profiles for Vila Azul guests that we've set up for you. Want to disconnect a little? Then take out a board game from our decent selection of games for adults and kids.

If you hate using pesky switches and knobs, try out the hands-free smart-home features: turn on, turn off, or dim the lights in the living room and kitchen and play some music on the Google Home smart display in the kitchen or on the Roku Streambar in the living room using just your voice.

Prefer to be outside? Cook up some BBQ on one of our grills. Enjoy a day of lounging on our deck under the sunshade or a night under the party lights. We've even got you covered with an infrared heater and some blankets if it's a little chilly. Don't forget to have some fun sitting in the Adirondack chairs around the fire pit any time of year. We've got skewers for making s'mores or cooking some hot dogs and brats over the open flames.

And if you want to combine movie night with a little outdoor fun, you can always check out a portable projector, screen, and speaker to connect to your device via HDMI or wirelessly via Chromecast. The popcorn is on us (microwave or theater-style)!

And don't worry if you forgot your phone or tablet charger, we probably have you covered with extra USB-C, USB Micro B, and Apple Lightning cables you can use.


Guest Access

Self check-in is easy using the smart lock on the front door--you'll get your own private code to enter on the keypad.

You can enjoy the entire upstairs space, the deck, and the backyard. Anything not marked private is yours to explore (the areas that are private are a couple of closets upstairs, the garage, and the private living quarters downstairs for your hosts John and Maria).

Other things to note

While we don't allow large parties, we're happy to help friends and families make memories in small special occasion gatherings (e.g., holiday dinners, Mother's Day celebrations, etc.). We will consider requests about special gatherings on a case-by-case basis.

Always feel free to ask us if you're not sure about anything. We want your stay to be exceptional.

Perfect in Every Way
From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, we felt pampered due to how well the house is prepared for guests. The home has all the modern conveniences and appliances, comfortable seating in dining room, living room, and deck. We spent each evening on the deck which overlooks a well kept yard with a firepit (we did not use). The kitchen island also has seating which we used. Electric kettle for tea prep plus two coffee makers, K-cups provided with the Keurig. Comfy beds, nice linens/towels, large closet with bathrobes provided, bathroom stocked with toiletries and hairdryer. We wanted for nothing. It was perfect in every way and we'd gladly return for another vacation.

Lovely stay
We had a great time at Villa Azul. Maria was tolerant of the kids making noise from time to time, and the location was great. The home had everything we needed, including games and movies and internet streaming options. Tastefully decorated with comfortable beds and plenty of linens and blankets/towels.

Vila Azulejo was such a great place to stay. The house was perfect for our needs. Everything was very accommodating. John was very helpful when we had questions! Great area too. If we ever come back to Madison, we will definitely stay here again!

Fabulous place
John’s place is wonderful: clean, well outfitted, and nicely decorated and furnished. We stayed here to have a place to host family while we visited. It was perfect for this, with a nice and well-supplied kitchen, plenty of room inside, and a big backyard with fire pit to gather around. Definitely met or exceeded our expectations in all respects.

I have rented a fair amount of VRBO’s and I have to say that this one had everything you could possibly need. Its kitchen was stocked with kitchen wear (all you need if you’re planning to cook there). It was a beautiful space and was perfect for our family gathering. It’s in a great location (near restaurants and grocery). John was awesome- so accommodating, helpful and a great communicator! I highly recommend this property.

Sweet little house.
We so very much enjoyed our stay in Middleton. This listing is a real gem. I am a regular VRBO Vacationer. Even after the best stays, I can always provide some constructive criticism. But in this case I can’t think of any. The home is warm and inviting, as was the owner. John has gone out of his way to provide all the little extras in making their home and the guest’s stay as appealing as possible. The home itself, is classic mid-century American Suburban. But John and his wife have gone to great lengths to refurbish and maintain this home. Everything is updated and well maintained. Floors, walls, exterior everything. Our son works at nearby Epic. We try to get out to visit once a year. I have no doubt I will return to this sweet VRBO.
