About this property

Baía I, apartment with luxury design

What about spending a holiday in an apartment with sea view and decoration that deserves to be on the main pages of the best magazines of the specialty?

Madeira Island is one of the most desirable islands in the world, thanks to the good weather, amazing landscapes, green nature and the fantastic quality of life that is enjoyed in this small archipelago. All this beauty served as inspiration for the sublime decoration of this fantastic apartment, where the endless view of the Atlantic Ocean completes the setting.

The details and quality are present in all divisions of the apartment, from the furnishings to the decorative pieces that complete this property, which has been recently decorated by an internationally awarded architect.

The interior of the house consists in three bedrooms: two bedrooms with double beds and one with two single beds; a fully equipped open space kitchen where you can prepare your meals together with your family or friends, taking advantage of the sea view.

Outside is the “catchy” place. The spacious balcony offers the best in a luxury vacation: barbecue, jacuzzi with a spectacular view to the sea and a space to sunbathe.

The apartment is fully equipped with all amenities and has air conditioning; tv and sound system in all divisions.


THE NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW
Situated in one of the most prestigious tourist areas of Funchal, this flat is close to a pleasant seafront promenade, beaches, supermarkets, pharmacies, shops and the Forum Madeira shopping centre, with several internationally renowned brands and movie theatres.

You will also found in a walk distance plenty of bars and restaurants where you can indulge in our delicious gastronomy or in international cuisine. In addition to the nearby options, you will find a greater variety of restaurants in the city centre, which can be reached by car in five minutes.

Lido is a public pool complex, is four minutes walking from the apartment. Praia Formosa, a favourite for bathing and beaching on its black sand and pebble, is just three kilometres away.


GETTING AROUND
A aerobus bus stop for airport arrivals and departures is within 2 minutes walk distance from the flat. Nevertheless, we recommend the private transfer service as the best option to get to the flat. Contact us in advance to schedule a private transfer car with our local partners. It is cheaper than taking a taxi by your own in the airport!

Great spot! We were attending an event at VidaMar so the location was excellent. An easy walk to food, bars, public swimming (Lido bathing complex). Easy Bolt ride to Old Funchal. Great space with plenty of room for five of us. Only caveat was the pool was out of order; otherwise, all amenities were fantastic.

Great Apartment in the Middle of the Hotel District

The apartment is very nice, spacious and very well equipped. We lacked nothing and had a fantastic time. However, the pool is not in use which was a bit annoying.

Perfect Property

The location of Baia 1 is wonderful. You are close to the best restaurants and sights if walking or using public transportation. The 180 degree beautiful ocean view and sounds of the crashing waves are enjoyed from inside the condo and from the two decks and hottub. The modern accommodations are perfect. We stayed a month and did not want our vacation to end!

Beautiful Views and Great Location!!!

We enjoyed staying in this condo. It was conveniently located so that we could walk to wonderful dinners every evening. We also were able to go on some beautiful walks from the condo. Had a couple issues getting settled in the condo (with WIFI, etc) but we were able to get it all figured out. Would have been nice to have manuals in English for hot tub, washing machine and other appliances. Also would have been nice to have more than one set of towels for a weekly stay. The beautiful view made up for these inconveniences.

Four nights in heaven

We had such an incredible time. We were already excited from the pictures of the property but when we arrived, wow it was even better than we thought. We got the hot tub going that first night so it was hot by morning and when we awoke we all felt like we were on a ship because the sea is just there, everywhere. We just loved it. We were so comfortable, we could relax, we had such great space. Everyone could lie around in perfect comfort. Just exactly what we needed. My family booked the apartment to celebrate my 60th birthday and it was perfect in every way. We are already talking about coming again.

Baía I - Beautiful

Location! Location! Location! The views at night and in the morning are stunning. Close to restaurants, your buses, supermarket and beach. The space is well appointed. It would be nice to have a little lighting in the hallway as the motion sensor light did not work, but once in the apartment… beautiful!

Splendid appartment, but too many problems :

- We had to wait 3h1/2 fot an early check-in ! - We had to wait 1 day to fill the jacuzi - We had to wait 4 days to fixe Tv and Netflix - We asked for an second transat (1 transat fot 3 rooms !), but he never arrived in 9 days - The windows were not cleaned, so we couldn't enjoy the view. - We didn't get the key of the pool untill we were blocked behind the closed door of the pool

Lovely apartment in an excellent location

Bright, spacious and well-appointed apartment with fantastic sea-views. A 25 minute walk (or 5 minute drive) to Funchal port and old town. Lovely balcony with hot tub and adjacent sun room with built in barbecue, cooker area overlooking the sea. Would definitely rebook.

Lovely apartment with great space. Extremely well equipped in every respect. Fantastic views out to sea with a south facing balcony. Good location, although looks a little austere from the outside when you approach. The apartment is on the 6th floor but there is a functional lift. Would happily recommend
