A great place to stay!

Myself and my brother felt very well accommodated. After 2 weeks staying in the apartment it ended up feeling like a home. The facilities were perfect for what we needed during the stay. The location was great as it was a straight walk down the street to get to the waterfront of Funchal so super easy to find.

Modern, spacious, bright and clean apartment in a central location

We had an excellent stay at this modern apartment. The host is always responding promptly to our inquiries. The kitchen is well equipped, has everything we needed during our stay. Pleasant balcony with sea view and cruise ships from afar. We will rent this place again for our next visit to Madeira.

Very nice apartment in a quiet building.

The building itself is very private and quiet. There is outside noise from traffic but that didn’t bother us. At night we turned on the AC, in the bedrooms only, which was very quiet, well maintained or brand new, and this made sleeping pleasant. The apartment had everything we needed, the kitchen was well stocked and the apartment was a welcome place to come home to. Well located. Would stay there again. Excellent greeting at checkin and we didn’t arrive until about 930 pm.

New development in Funchal

Property is new and modern. More tea towels and dishwasher tablets would help! Kitchen wall tiles need cleaning properly and some utensils were damaged broken (chopping board & bottle opener). Located up a steep hill! With lots of nearby construction work

Tolle Wohnung, super Lage :)

Die Wohnung ist super zentral gelegen und verfügt über eine großzügige Ausstattung. Alles tip top, auch die Kommunikation zum Vermieter. Vieien Dank nochmal :) Einzig das Bett/die Matratze im großen Schlafzimmer ist extrem durchgelegen. Wir hatten insgesamt eine wunderbare Woche und uns sehr wohl gefühlt!

Beautiful spacious flat in the heart of Funchal

The flat is very spacious, comfortable, luminous and well decorated. It is in the heart of Funchal, appx 8 min walk from the Cathedral. It is situated uphill which provides a nice view on the bay from the terrace. The flat is well equipped, it has all you need for a perfect stay in Madeira.
