About this property

Penthouse apartment overlooking Funchal’s best beach – Formosa beach

Large private balcony and rooftop terrace overlooking the Atlantic. The apartment building is right on the beach, with no noisy roadway between you and the spectacular views. The only sound in the evenings, is the waves breaking onto the cobble beach eight floors below.

There are three double bedrooms. The master bedroom opens straight onto the balcony
and also has a large ensuite with ‘double’ bath. There is also a family bathroom with shower.

This is a large apartment (130m2) and very well built. Couples sharing have plenty of space – although there could be arguments about who gets the master bedroom!

The apartment has been a privately owned, family holiday apartment for the last 25 years, and is very well equipped.

The kitchen has all the appliances you would find at home, although there are plenty of lovely cafes and restaurants close by, if cooking isn’t on your agenda!

If you do opt for some home-cooking, we would recommend the beautiful fresh fish and vegetables for sale on the island. We love cooking when we stay down there. Evenings on the terrace are very relaxing, dining and watching the sun setting.

The apartment was renovated in 2017 and simply decorated, but still has a lovely comfortable feel to it. It is our home from home!

It is situated in an aparthotel complex with swimming pool, games room, bar and direct access to the beach. The reception desk is open 24h/day.

The large sunny windows face south-west, and the Atlantic sunsets are spectacular from the eighth-floor balcony. The sun sets over the sea, in line with the highest cliffs in Europe.

Host profile image
We bought this apartment in 2017 and we are very lucky to have the fantastic Nyara managing the apartment for us. She provides a very friendly and professional service, and is very happy to answer any queries you may have.

We visited Madeira for the first time in 2016, renting a different apartment from Nyara. We fell in love with this unique location and soon after bought this fabulous apartment as our family get-away. We hope you enjoy your stay there as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

It is an amazing apartment in an unique location by the sea.
If total relaxation is your aim, then this is the perfect location.

The apartment building is right on the beach, with no noisy roadway between you and the spectacular views. The only sound in the evenings, is the waves breaking onto the cobble beach eight floors below.

Recently refurnished this apartment has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay taking profit of the mild climate of the island and its amazing view.

We find the balcony plenty big enough for the family to eat every evening, and the rooftop (which gets the morning sun) is a great space for our teenage kids to have their ‘own space’

What makes this property unique

Very spacious apartment (170 m2!) with a private balcony and a private rooftop terrace over the sea (it is really neaby the sea!). A very comfortable and modern apartment in a quiet and unique location! If total relaxation is your aim, then this is the perfect location.

However, there is plenty to do in Madeira. It has everything from seafront promenade walks, starting right outside the apartment to incredible levada walks. Our son particularly enjoys the mountain biking, and our daughter loves the whale & dolphin watching.

Nyara’s husband Miguel organises vintage jeep tours, which come highly recommended by everyone who has experienced them. The island has some fantastic destinations to explore, and a jeep trip early in your holiday, provides a great feel for this beautiful Island. We would advise booking the tour before you travel to the island, as Miguel’s tours do get booked in advance.
