Super well equipped - all the kitchen stuff you could need, loads of towels including tea towels and beach towels which were really handy. Close to city centre, a couple of cafes and shops nearby too. Two balconies and the top one with views to die for. Perfect for watching sunrise with the blackbirds singing all around. And the hosts are absolutely brilliant - friendly, available, great communication throughout. Such a brilliant option for Madeira and all for a very competitive price. We were so happy with our choice. Thanks Aldina

We had a very relaxing stay and our host was fantastic. It was our first visit to Madeira. We loved the balcony view - very picturesque with great views of the town and the sea. There was a fully stocked nespresso machine in the kitchen which was a nice touch and our host was very informative on where to eat and places to see. It was great to have beach towels provided. Overall a lovely stay.

Our stay in this apartment in Funchal was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Despite our flight being delayed, we didn’t arrive until around 3am, and the host could not have been more accommodating—waiting up to greet us with a warm welcome and making sure we were settled in comfortably. That level of care really set the tone for the whole trip. The apartment itself was excellent—clean, spacious, and full of charm. We especially loved the unique touches, like the old working sewing machine, which our daughter found fascinating and spent time exploring. It gave the place a real sense of character that you don’t often find. One of the highlights was the beautiful top balcony. The views were stunning, and it quickly became our favourite spot to sit and enjoy breakfast each morning in the sunshine. It felt peaceful while still being right in the heart of everything. The location was perfect, with easy access to all the amenities—Old Town, shops, restaurants, and everything we needed was just a short walk away. It made exploring Funchal incredibly convenient. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. A wonderful host, a lovely apartment, and a perfect location—highly recommended and we would absolutely stay here again.

Ideal in every way for us. We had a great holiday.The lower rating for family was given thinking of young children and the stairs could be a problem.All interactions with the owners were helpful, informative and punctual.We cooked and ate in some of the time and there was plenty kitchen equipment for that.

Hi generally a good place to stay, host was very nice.The property is on a steep hill and found the walk up a problem for me personally, and renters should be aware of this, saying that we got around it with buses and using Bolt.Although did not affect my stay overall I think it is reasonable to have working appliances if you wish to use them. The coffee machine i could not get to work or the tv, There was a TV remote but only one channel was available.The place itself was good great views from balcony but i do feel could do with some improvement, one wall needed painting where patch plastered.

Cannot really ask for anything more in a rental property. Great location that is very central to Funchal, amazing balcony with views, nice kitchen and bathroom. The owner is very easy to reach and more than willing to help out with anything. Great price as well.

Convenient property & great host

Our host João was very kind and helpful. The property was very good and was as described in the listing. It included all the facilities that we needed and was located a 10 minute walk away from Central Funchal. All in all it served as a lovely base to explore the rest of Madeira from.
