Convenient location downtown Funchal

The apartment was lovely and we especially liked the big balcony looking out over the harbour. Unfortunately there was a big construction project across the street which made it noisy during the day but that is a temporary thing. The location is really great -close to restaurants, grocery stores etc.

Very nice apartment in a near perfect location.

The three of us very much enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of space and everything worked like a charm. We enjoyed the view of the harbor from the balcony of the 5th story flat, but we had an elevator which made life easy on our legs. The bedrooms faced to the back of the building so nights and sleeping were very quiet.

Lovely apartment, great location!

We spent a wonderfully relaxing and fun Christmas holiday in Funchal in this apartment. The apartment is comfortable and has all the amenities you could need. The location is fantastic because you have the bustle and access to the town and lovely sea views (with a succession of cruise ships to admire), all in the glorious absence of traffic noise and pollution. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming - as was everyone we met during our stay. I'm looking forward to returning!!

Traveler

The apartment was in the center of Funchal and walkable to the shops and restaurents. The views from the top floor apartment were great and the balcony was large to accompany four people. The apartment was well appointed. Overall the apartment was great, but the hot water in the showers were limited and the beds were not very comfortable.

A good find .

Many of the Hotels in Funchal are actually a walking distance or bus ride from the centre therefore this apartment is a prefect location , with restaurants on the door step meant we had lots of choice of where too eat within strolling distance as well as all the tourist attractions. However the kitchen also provided all the means to eat in if you choose to do that. We thought the layout of the apartment was excellent, apart from air conditioning from building behind the only noise was the pigeons.

Great downtown location to enjoy Funchal and the island of Madeira. 2 bedrooms, 2 bath. No AC, only 2 fans provided. Even in October, it was quite warm. Bedrooms at back of apartment get very little air circulation. Host lives very close and was responsive to our questions. Kitchen pans and utensils need replacing/updating. If you eat at restaurants, no worries, lots of choices.get very little air

Would definitely return and recommend!

The location of the apartment is perfect if you want to be in town. The property is very well equipped with all the items you would want. The television package also caters to most tastes. The fabulous views are over the harbour and marina - vessel spotters will love this! The terrace has sun all day long. There are plenty of restaurants in the vicinity and there are two supermarkets within easy reach of the apartment. It is also a very short walk to the Avenida do Mar where the buses run regularly to all the places one would want to visit. And the owner João is a very friendly gentleman who speaks English. I cannot say anything negative about this apartment! Anyone staying here will enjoy it.

Tolle Lage, spektakuläre Aussicht!

Wir waren 3 Wochen dort. João war sehr freundlich und hat uns alles in der Wohnung gezeigt. Die Wohnung ist sauber und gut ausgestattet. Das beste ist aber der große Balkon (4 Stühle, ein Tisch und ein großer Sonnenschirm) und die spektakuläre Aussicht auf den Hafen. 2 Sonnenliegen wären schön gewesen. Das Doppelbett war mit 140 cm recht klein und sehr hart. Es soll aber bald ausgetauscht werden. Wir wollen aber auf jeden wieder kommen.

Erholsame Woche

Wir haben eine schöne Woche in der Wohnung verbracht. Die Lage ist sehr gut. Alles ist bequem zu Fuss zu erreichen. Ausserdem entspricht die Wohnung genau der Beschreibung, und die Lärmbelästigung der Baustelle vor dem Haus wurde vorher vom Vermieter angekündigt. Da wir aber tagsüber unterwegs waren, hat diese uns nicht gestört. Wir würden wiederkommen.

Vorzügliche Lage in Funchal

DIe große Wohnung mit Blick über die Dächer der Altstadt bis zum Hafen ist perfekt als Ausgangspunkt für Unternehmungen in der Hauptstadt und Ausflüge über die Insel. Eine Vielzahl von Restaurants, zwei große Supermärkte und die zentrale Mmarkthalle sind im Umkreis von einem Kilometer erreichbar. Ein Mietwagen kann im nahen Parkhaus untergestellt werden. Leider ist aktuell und bis Ende 2022 der Lärm einer großen Hotelbaustelle direkt vor der Terrasse unvermeidlich und lästig.

Stay in Funchal Madeira.

We have found that a stay on Madeira is best from the central position of Funchal. It always seems to have the best weather as well. Transport links are on your doorstep with plenty of shops, entertainment and restaurants This apartment fits the bill with a great view over the harbour.

Perfect city centre pad.

Four of us 50 something adults stayed at Jaoa's place for a week. It is perfectly located right in the centre of Funchal which gives you access to all the sights, shops and restaurants etc. The apartment was spotlessly clean, spacious, comfortable and has every amenity you would need. It has the absolute bonus of having a large sun terrace that gets the sun from morning to evening, a rare find in a city! Jaoa was always available in his shop if you needed anything, but we didn't have to bother him. We would certainly recommend Jaoa's place for a stay.

Besser geht's nicht

Mein Mann und ich hatten diese wunderbare Wohnung mit unseren erwachsenen Töchtern für eine Woche im April gemietet. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt, da sie großzügig geschnitten, sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und mit allem, was man braucht ausgestattet ist und wir von hier aus optimale Möglichkeiten für kleinere und größere Ausflüge oder zum Stadtbummel hatten. Wir haben auch den großen Südbalkon mit dem Blick auf den Kreuzfahrt-Anlegekai sehr genossen. Die Vermieter waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben schöne Ausflüge mit Linienbussen gemacht z. B. zum Botanischen Garten, zur Baia d'Abra am äußersten Ostzipfel (sehr zu empfehlen!), nach Camara de Lobos und nach Santana. dabei muss man sich allerdings zunächst mit den vier verschiedenen Busgesellschaften und den entsprechenden zahlreichen Haltestellen vertraut machen. Die Touristeninformation ganz in der Nähe ist dabei behilflich. Man kann auch gut Bustouren mit Taxifahrten kombinieren, um an entlegenere Stellen zu kommen. Wir haben auch den Flughafenbus genutzt, der zwar günstig ist, allerdings oft sehr verspätet (>20 Min.). Es ist also ratsam nicht zu knapp zu planen. Eine Woche verging sehr schnell und wir haben längst nicht alles gemacht, was wir gerne unternommen hätten, auch weil die Wolken über den Bergen im Inselinneren meistens sehr tief hingen. Wir würden also gerne noch einmal wiederkommen.

Very comfortable flat in the heart of Funchal with great views

This is a large 2-bed apartment with a terrace (views right across Funchal Bay), in the centre of Funchal near the Zarco statue, Golden Gate and Palacio do Sao Lourenco (and the sea front). It's well-equipped and comfortable, and the living rooms are a good size; you have a choice of eating in the kitchen or living room, or on the terrace (the outside furniture has been replaced since the photo). The nearby streets are pedestrian, so hardly any traffic noise. The bedrooms open on to a courtyard where there is some noise from other buildings' air conditioning. Good showers, but you have to allow time for the water to heat up again. We cooked on several occasions and the kitchen is well-equipped, though if you need one bring a wooden spatula. There's a small supermarket nearby in the Sao Lourenco centre, and two large ones within a 10min walk, along with plenty of eating places. Joao the owner is very helpful and has a shop downstairs, though we only needed to find him once to ask where to put the rubbish. A good find - highly recommended for a stay in central Funchal.
