The property is located in an ideal location 10/15 minutes from the sea and most restaurants. It is located up a hill so as long as you don’t mind a walk it’s perfect! With lovely views down over Funchal it makes a pretty perfect base for your holiday!

Super holiday

The apartment was a steep walk from the town but in a quiet elevated oasis with good views on Funchal and the harbour. It was clean and had all the basics to make for a very enjoyable stay. The cake fruit and water was very welcome on arrival. Thankyou very much to our hosts.

Good base for an out-and-about week

Lovely weather so we didn't spend much time at the flat. It made an excellent base for going out for day hikes on the levadas and walking down to town for shopping or evening meals. It is a very steep walk up from the area where most of the restaurants are located so this is not a base for anyone who has mobility problems but we had a good view out to the sea. One really nice aspect was that on arrival, we found a lovely bowl of fresh fruit, some local cake and two bottles of water - all most welcome after a long journey and a very kind and thoughtful gesture. The flat has a well equipped kitchenette and is furnished with basic IKEA style modern furniture which is perfectly adequate but I think that if we had had a week of rain, it might have felt a little confined as the living room just looks out to a brick area and the view to the front can only be had by standing at the bedroom window or sitting on the shared balcony. Having said which, I don't think poor weather is a regular feature of Madeira so it worked very well for us. Clean, modern and perfectly adequate - recommended.
