The apartment is clean, and well appointed with a microwave, dishwasher, oven, stove and even a washing machine. It is close to everything in old town Funchal and the bus lines to get you everywhere else. We rented a car and we got a private parking place, which is huge sine there is not much parking around. The apartment manager met us on the street, showed us where to park and gave local restaurant and thing to do. I highly recommend it!

Funchal Charm

This property is very nice and in a great location. Close to everything in funchal which is a wonderful town. The only thing that is a bit inconvenience is the construction at this building at this time. It is very loud 8:00am til around 5:00pm daily.Elsa is very easy to deal with.

The apartment is very comfortable and very well equipped. We stayed for 2 months in January and February and it really was like home from home. The position is ideal for exploring the wonderful town Funchal, right in the centre by the beautiful gardens and no hills to climb. All amenities are within a stone's throw. Elsa is very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. We look forward to our next stay.

Great Holiday in Madeira

Lovely apartment, suits us as we like to relax and do our own thing and not have to meet meal times in hotels. The apartment is well equipped with all relevant facilities including an oven and washing machine. Wifi is free and really good as we where using an Amazon Fire stick, tablet and phone. This was our second visit to Elsa's apartment and Elsa was helpful and explained everything we needed to know. Location is central Funchal which we want near the Municipal Gardens, supemarket a couple of minutes walk which is great for us as we like to self cater rather than meals out.

Perfect Location

We had a great October break in Elsa's 2 bed apartment which was perfectly located behind the Municipal Gardens close to the Dolce Vita Shopping Centre (with large supermarket on the bottom floor) and also within 5 minutes walk of the promenade and marina. The apartment is well furnished with a good sized kitchen/breakfast bar, the beds were very comfortable and the bathroom was a good size with a powerful shower. The complimentary WIFI was also nice and quick so we never lost touch with anything happening back home. This was our first time in Madeira and we thoroughly enjoyed having this apartment as our base, nice stroll out onto the promenade in a morning and a quick nightcap in the Café Concerto located in the Municipal Gardens became almost a daily ritual for us. The locals are extremely friendly, and the cable car and Yellow/Red Hop on-Hop off buses are worth the EUR12.00 price for 2 days worth of hopping. Good communication throughout the booking from Elsa, we shall certainly be back !!!

Central location with parking

The apartment is centrally located with easy access to all that Funchal has to offer. The host is very friendly and helpful and was quick to answer any questions we had. The host met us on arrival and showed us the apartment and how to access the private car park. The apartment was clean, very comfortable and well-equipped. The description is very accurate. There is a lift but there are a few steps leading up to it which is worth noting if accessibility is an issue. Overall, we had an excellent stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.

Tolles Appartement, Elsa ist eine tolle Vermieterin. In der Küche ist alle was man braucht, super eingerichtet, sehr ruhig, kleiner Balkon, alles in der Nähe. Der Stellplatz ist ca. 100m in einer gesicherten Tiefgarage. Alles bestens, würden wieder hier übernachten.

Perfektes Stadtdomizil

Die Wohnung hat eine perfekte Lage mitten in Funchal. Um Funchal pur zu erleben, ist man hier richtig! Die Wohnung ist stilvoll und mit allem was man braucht, ausgestattet. Wie in allen Innenstädten ist die Parkplatzsituation nicht einfach. Aber Elsa ist behilflich bei einer Lösung und innerhalb der Stadt benötigt man ja auch kein Auto.

A repetir

Casa muito bem situada, pertissimo da marina, com espaço amplo para os hóspedes. Pena na localização existir um jardim que junta muito toxicodependentes mas que não se metem com ninguém nem arranjam problemas, por isso não há perigo de seguranca, apenas podem pedir uma moeda de vez em quando. Espaço bem limpo e a sra Elsa é simpática e encontra-se sempre disponível no caso de existir alguma situação. Uma experiência a repetir sem dúvida.

Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung

Lage: Perfekt. Die Ferienwohnung ist zentral in Funchal gelegen, unmittelbarer Nähe des Jardim Municipal. Zu Fuß ist der Hafen und die Innenstadt in wenigen Minuten zu erreichen. Einkaufen kann man im 2 Minuten entfernten Einkaufscenter La Vie. Parken in einer 5 Minuten entfernten Tiefgarage unmittelbar an der Strandpromenade. In unmittelbarer Umgebung eine Vielzahl von Cafes, Bars und Restaurants, von einfach bis gehoben, von einheimisch bis Touristennepp. Nachteil: Funchal ist eine laute Stadt, in der Umgebung ist immer was los, bis zur lärmenden Müllabfuhr nachts und am frühen Morgen. Haus: Die Ferienwohnung liegt im zweiten OG eines Hauses aus den 1970er Jahren. Es gibt einen neuen Aufzug. Müll wird, wie auf Madeira üblich auf dem Hauswirtschaftsbalkon gesammelt und dann in die öffentlichen Müllbehälter um die Ecke am Park entsorgt. Ausstattung: entspricht genau der Beschreibung in der Anzeige. Die Betten sind weich, für unseren Geschmack zu weich. Außer dem Sofa leider keine wirklich bequeme Sitzgelegenheiten, die Stühle sehen hübsch aus, sind aber unbequem. Außer der Küchentheke gibt es nur einen niedrigen, gläsernen Wohnzimmertisch (und einen halbrunden Wandtisch). Gemeinsames Essen mit 4 Personen ist da schwierig. Küche ist ordentlich ausgestattet. Der Stauraum im Schrank ist nicht üppig. Das Bad ist bei einer Belegung von mehr als 2 Personen doch recht klein. Betreuung: Sehr angenehm! Elsa war sehr freundlich, stets erreichbar und immer kurzfristig zur Stelle, für den "Notfall" gibt es auch direkt im Haus einen Ansprechpartner. Elsa hat auch unseren Transfer zum Flughafen übernommen, Preis zu einem normalen Taxipreis. Fazit: Gerne wieder

Alles vor der Haustür

Elsa und ihre Familie haben für einen unbeschwerten Urlaub gesorgt. Alles hat prima geklappt! Vielen Dank dafür. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die Lage der Wohnung - nur ein paar Schritte vom hübschen Jardim Municipal entfernt. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten von Funchal liegen fast vor der Haustür. Die Wohnung in der 2. Etage ist über die bequeme breite Treppe gut zu erreichen - ein Fahrstuhl steht aber kurz vor der Fertigstellung. Das Wohnzimmer ist freundlich eingerichtet - viele Bücher, Infomaterial und auch deutsches TV - dazu ein kleiner schattiger Balkon mit Blick auf die Straße. Selbstverpfleger finden eine üppig ausgestattete offene Küche vor, von der wir allerdings keinen Gebrauch gemacht haben. Daneben liegt ein abgeschlossener Hauswirtschaftsbalkon (Waschmaschine usw.). Zwei ausreichend große Schlafzimmer mit sehr (!) bequemen kuscheligen Betten. Im Haus ist es auch tagsüber sehr ruhig und nachts hört man dann auch keinen Straßenverkehr mehr. Das Bad ist zwar nicht sehr groß, aber recht sauber und modern eingerichtet (praktische Dusche, Handtuchwärmer und ausreichend Stauraum). Leider hatten wir auch ein paar recht kühle Tage mit Regen und starkem Wind , da geriet der kleine Radiator im Wohnzimmer schnell an seine Grenzen. Alles in allem eine Wohnung zu einem angemessenem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis, in der wir uns wohl gefühlt haben und die wir gerne weiterempfehlen.

Great stay in Funchal

Great apartment for a stay in Funchal. Centrally located by the park and easy to find your way anywhere in town. It has a well equipped kitchen. Elsa and her mother are there to answer any questions. There is so much to see and do on Madeira Island and the central location of the apartment made it easy to access the bus system or taxi's when ever we needed. Tourist information is near by, and the harbour is a short walk. The street the apartment is on was quiet so sleeping was not disrupted. Lots of great restaurants and cafes within a minute or two walk as is the big shopping centre with a grocery store. Highly recommend staying here. Will be back!
