6 weeks in Paradise
We stayed in this unit for 6 weeks in March. We were very happy with the accommodation. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of pots and new frying pans. The beds were very comfortable. The view was amazing. It was about a 10 minute walk on the promenade and through the tunnel to catch #2 bus to Funchal. The bus to catch #1 up the hill was a bit more challenging. The hosts were quick to respond to 2 issues that were resolved quickly. I would highly recommend this unit.

A good month’s holiday overall. With a superb beach front location the apartment is spacious with a well equipped kitchen area. However we did have a problem with the initial cleanliness & maid service. Also the second bedroom desperately needs new mattresses & pillows ( I had to wash the pillows!) Also it would be good to update the description on the website as there isn’t a gym ( I was expecting to be able to use an exercise bike!) or a pool table as mentioned currently.

Centrally located beachfront condo!
This apartment is exactly as described. It is a well equipped 2 bedroom condo right on Praia Formosa with beautiful sunsets. The beachfront boardwalk allows you to walk either to Funchal or Camara dos Lobos, with many restaurants nearby. Sandra, the owner, was very responsive and helpful. We would choose this place again, and highly recommend it to others.

Great Apartment
I really enjoyed my week there. The balcony and view of the ocean is complete. The kitchen has all appliances and the washer works great. The bed was very comfortable. The bus to and from the airport comes right to the bldg. which is very convenient. I did some day trips where I could have a transfer to and from the bldg. to the trip. The key box to receive and return the keys is very easy to use. The resort had a nice big pool and three elevators.

Spacious, well equipped and lovely views and sun from balcony
We had an excellent three week stay and would hope to come again. The location was good for us with walks along the sea path in either direction. One supermarket has closed, perhaps for winter. The other is about 10 to 15 minutes away and has all you need. We spent lots of time on the balcony and saw a storm and sunsets. The sea is so close. Good restaurants nearby, through the tunnel. Dishwasher and washing machine very handy. The complex is well maintained and we made good use of the pool, even on cloudy days. No problem with ants if everything is kept in cupboards/fridge and wiped down. The door to the balcony does need some attention as it’s very stiff. Hope the second shower is fixed for next year as we may bring family. Lovely stay.

Not the greatest stay that we have had.
The apartment is very hard to find - the owner omitted to tell us it was in a hotel comlex. The apartment has wonderful view over the ocean and a large balcony - but it is directly over the pool patio. So, expect noise from people drinking and lazing at all times! The apartment itself is rather worn, there was an army of ants in the cupboard by the frig, so don't leave any food on the counters, as they will find it. The owner only supplied one kitchen garbage bag for a 5 day stay - I have never been expected to buy garbage bags before and in fact used the ones in the bathrooms! There was no helpful information about where to get groceries, how to get into Funchal etc. We do not happen to use Apps or GPS.

A lovely break
The apartment is well equipped and along with the pool area and communal area is kept to a high standard. I didn't actually use the pool or bar area but it seemed well received by other guests. There is a wide variety of maps/information in the apartment, handy for inspiration if needed. The tunnel at the end of the beach was helpful to take you to a selection of local restaurants however the walk in to Funchal itself is completely manageable with comfy shoes and offers pleasant views with many bars and restaurants along the way. The local supermarket that we used was more than what we needed, only a couple of minutes drive away. We hired a car from the airport which was a real bonus and very reasonably priced as we were able to explore the rest of Madeira at our own leisure, some of the scenery is breath taking. I would advise to do the same if you can.

Lovely Apartment
We stayed at this apartment for a week but could have stayed longer! The apartment is comfortable & spacious. It also has a lovely balcony which overlooks the swimming pool & the Atlantic. There is a comfortable 3 piece suite as well as a table with 4 chairs inside but to be perfectly honest we spent majority of our time on the balcony as there is a table with 4 chairs & 2 loungers, perfect for meal times & just relaxing watching the waves crashing on the beach. There is washing machine in the kitchen with an airer on the balcony so washing is no problem. It was so nice coming back from our holiday knowing that we didn't have too much washing to do! WiFi also in the apartment too which is really handy & the staff at reception are really friendly and helpful. Defiantly worth a visit!

Leider nicht so toll!
Die Wohnung befand sich in einem nicht so sauberen Zustand.In der Küche lagen noch Brotkrümel unter dem Herd und die Arbeitsplatte kebte stellenweise.Der Boden war nicht vernünftig gereinigt so das Barfuss laufen nicht möglich war.Im großen Bad waren noch Haare vom Vogänger:innen auf dem Boden.Die Möbelierung war auch schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen.Außer die Küche.Die war etwas neuer.Bereits 2019 waren wir in diesem Haus zu Gast allerdings in einem anderen Appartment.Da sah die Sache schon etwas anders aus. Auch waren leider im Haus und am Haus diverse Baustellen, so das die Erholung etwas zu kurz kam!

wir haben die lange Zeit sehr genossen
Die Wohnung selbst ist sehr schön und geräumig und entspricht der Beschreibung. Die Lage so direkt am Atlantik ist für Funchal einmalig. Das Haus ist leicht zu finden. Direkt am Eingang des Komplexes befindet sich die End-bzw. Anfangsstation des Flughafenbusses. Die wöchentliche Reinigung bzw. der Bettwäsche- und Handtuch-Tausch klappte gut. Die Umgebungsbeschreibung der Wohnung ist allerdings überholt. Das Pestana-Hotel ist geschlossen(soll aber ev. wieder in Betrieb gehen). Damit entfielen auch die Restaurants, die Poolbar und das Essen im Freien. Der direkte Zugang zum Strand war wegen umfangreichen Baumaßnahmen der Ozeanpromenade (Fertigstellung im Mai geplant) gesperrt. Dadurch war auch der kurze Weg zum Einkaufen und zur Lido-Promenade bzw. zur Bushaltestelle der Linie 2. versperrt. So blieb nur ein sehr kräftezehrender steiler Weg mit einer Treppe nach oben, der auch runter zu anstrengend war. Der ganztägige Baustellenlärm von montags bis samstags war schon sehr belastend. So konnte die sehr schöne Balkonterrasse nur sonntags oder zum Sonnenuntergang genutzt werden. Glücklicherweise bietet Funchal und die gesamte Insel Madeira ausreichende Möglichkeiten zum erholen und erleben, so dass wir die gesamte Zeit von 50 Tagen genießen konnten.
