Find rentals with hot tubs near Pico Das Pedras

Loved the views

I confess I was expecting an accommodation past its prime, because few recent reviews have posted on VRBO. We were in for a pleasant surprise. As Filomena explains, she purposely downplays the online description so that guests' expectations are exceeded! The house is spacious: two bedrooms, living/dining area, kitchen, bathroom, utility... and of course the balcony overlooking all of Funchal, a view even better than well-publicized miradouros. A slight mustiness, probably comes from the subtropical climate, which we got used to quickly. As others noted, you hear highway noise--but the phenomenal view outweighs this minor disturbance. We cooked in on several evenings, taking advantage of the well-stocked kitchen. Otherwise, we took Bolt/taxis to downtown restaurants, not wanting to deal with traffic and parking)... you need to be patient for Bolt to arrive especially during rush hour. I would suggest ordering your Bolt/taxi 30 minutes before you need it. We drove all over the island in our rental car. The house is very convenient to the highway. A great base! Filomena is an attentive hostess: we had clear instructions to get in the first day, and she even allowed us to check in early. Filomena came around during our visit to make sure we had everything we needed. In summary, this is an excellent base for exploring Madeira--we would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Our stay at this beautiful home was perfect for 6 adults. There were plenty of bathrooms available for our needs. The pool was an added bonus as it was very warm 80+ degrees Fahrenheit and was enjoyed. Downtown Funchal was approximately 25-30” walk down steep hills and taxi up to the property. Would definitely recommend. Owners were gracious and available. Thank You Marta and Joao.

We stayed for a week at the Quinta Martin as part of a two and a half week stay in Madeira (so that we had time to compare…). In a nutshell: our stay at Quinta Martin was fantastic. The house first of all: we were the four of us (two adults, two kids) though it could easily accommodate two families. It is quite spacious, fully refurbished and decorated with taste - so that we felt in a slightly out of time oasis of peacefulness. The garden is overlooking Funchal’s bay and the ocean, and nicely ornamented by tropical flowers. The jacuzzi provides a very relaxing touch after a day of excursion, which the kids (and us) really enjoyed. The house is fully equipped (special kudos to the coffee machine :). In terms of location, the Quinta is located in the outskirts of Funchal, slightly above Santo Antonio, so that you can enjoy fresh air and breathtaking views. It is easily accessible by bus (40 meters away), taxi and offers a garage for the car (which we rented during the second part of the week). A small shop virtually next door provides the essentials and there is a supermarket (Pingo doce) in S. Antonio. There are two small cafes nearby which we did not try. Not much in terms of restaurants (but who needs to go outside with such a house ?). In short, a very convenient location to explore the island, also close to Funchal and its amenities. Last but not least, warm thanks to the Horvel family for their kindness and readiness to help throughout our stay.

Adorei vivamente, recomendo sem sombra de dúvida. Muito bonito, acolhedor, muito limpinho, super cheiroso, uma mini casa. Fantabuloso. Super bem localizado. Irei voltar

There, but better and not be. Everything is so good that I just want to get back again right now. Thank you very much for the hostess Filomena
