Nearby
Funchal is not only the capital, but also the 'heart' of Madeira and home to many of the islanders. This makes it a busy, chic, cosmopolitan and fun city, full of shops, shopping centres, bars, cafés and a great variety of restaurants and entertainment; a vibrant, cosmopolitan town where historic splendour and breath-taking natural beauty combine with a thoroughly modern atmosphere. It also boasts a colourful covered market, numerous stately old buildings, including an imposing cathedral and a lovely theatre. The city has grown over the years, ascending higher and higher up the mountainsides, resulting in a beautiful display of sparkling white buildings by day and a myriad of glittering lights at night.

Madeira
Some seven hundred kilometres west of the African coast, Madeira is a stunning mountainous emerald island, lapped by the warm waters of the Gulf Stream. The first island to be discovered by the Portuguese navigators in 1419, Madeira became an important resting place on the long trip to the new world. From these humble beginnings, the holiday trade was formed and this spectacular island, which used to be the favourite place of the rich and famous, is now the preferred choice of all sorts of visitors, from those seeking year-round warm temperatures to nature lovers and sightseers, sports and active enthusiasts of all ages. Culture, history, stunning nature, a myriad of sea and land activities, added to a great foodie scene means Madeira has something for everyone. No matter where you go on the island you are rewarded by fabulous scenery, tiny villages and friendly people. With a population of over 100,000, Funchal is not only the capital, but also the 'heart' of Madeira and home to many of the islanders. This makes it a busy, chic, cosmopolitan and fun city, full of shops, shopping centres, bars, cafés and a great variety of restaurants and entertainment; a vibrant, cosmopolitan town where historic splendour and breath-taking natural beauty combine with a thoroughly modern atmosphere.

Great location, very nice apartment
We had a great stay at this property, the apartment is well proportioned and has a great view of the harbour area. Nice spacious rooms, great balcony, and very convenient for the centre of Funchal and close to numerous restaurants and bars. Very comfortable beds and lots of storage. A few minor niggles, getting access to the recycling area was very difficult and instructions were not very good. The furnishing are a bit basic in the living room and not so comfy. No welcome pack as promised. Did not manage to contact owner to confirm departure process despite repeated attempts. None of the above would put us off visiting again, however addressing these issues would make our next stay even more enjoyable.

Suited our needs perfectly
We couldn't book our usual apartment, and as it was my husband's special birthday, he got to choose an alternative, and this apartment fits the bill, in more ways than one. The location is perfect, as we like to mix eating out and eating "at home". Pingo Doce is our favourite supermarket and really close to the apartment. We like to wake up in the mrning and watch the cruise ships arrive....the apartment gets the morning sun and has a perfect view of the marina. There are many many good restsurants withing a 15 minute walk of the apartment - another brilliant point and one of the reasons why we booked here - we have visited Funchal before and have a few favourite places within easy reach of this place. All the amenties in the apartment are first class, allowing for excellent eating in facilities. We loved staying in the apartment and would be very happy to book here again.

Traveled with family
We know Funchal really well because we've been there several times so we specifically picked this apartment for it's excellent location right in the heart of town. We knew the building was very old but was hoping the specific apartment would be good. It was certainly large enough, it had comfortable beds, it has an excellent and interesting view over the harbour etc. However it's cheaply furnished in dated Ikea furniture that is quite tired and could definitely due with updating. Also one of the main reasons we chose this apartment was because it had air conditioning. Our first time in Madeira we learned this was an important requirement because of the heat. Unfortunately while it did have units in each room the cooling part wasn't working (likely required refrigeration fluid) and so we had to leave the windows wide open for some relief, but was still way too hot for me. Also this area can be quite noisy, especially on the weekends, so it was very difficult to have a good nights sleep most nights. We loved the location, but were disappointed with the quality of the apartment. If it was updated and if the air conditioning was repaired then we could definitely recommend this place.

Perfect Location
From deciding to rent to the apartment to leaving at the end of the holiday was so simple. Petronella was waiting for us at the apartment when we arrived ... and we were allowed early access which was great. She showed us around the apartment, explained how things worked and sent a video of the route to the bins in the garage. She gave great advice on local shops and eateries. The apartment was far better in reality than in the photos ....so much room, very bright and comfortable. The beds were so comfortable, the bed linen was white and crisp. The view from the balcony was amazing. Overlooking the harbour. We all hope to return! We had a wonderful holiday in the apartment.

The property is as shown in the photos. Apart from the sofa and armchair needing brightening up the apartment was fine with excellent views and handy for the town. There was a great deal of noise from people shouting on the promenade opposite the apartment from 2 am until daylight. This was the only problem we had.

A wonderful place to stay in Funchal, Madeira
Very clean, updated and well furnished apartment in the central downtown area of Funchal, with a fabulous balcony and living room view over the harbor. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for the month of November and will consider coming back another time. The only thing to be aware of is that this is a busy area that can sometimes be noisy overnight, so light sleepers may have occasional issues unless you wear earplugs.

Perfect place to stay within walking distance of the Old Town and views across the harbour
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely apartment which was spotlessly clean and had great views across the harbour. We enjoyed watching the cruise ships coming and going and although there is some road noise it didn’t disturb our sleep in a very comfortable bed. The apartment is within walking distance of Funchal’s Old Town and the many restaurants that are available. It is also situated close to a lovely park and within walking distance to the Lido area. We would certainly stay again if we return to Funchal

Fantastic!
We had a really fantastic stay in Madeira, the apartment was everything we could have asked for. Petronella was really helpful, nothing was too much trouble, even to sourcing the tv channel we needed to watch the Royal Wedding (Harry and Meghan) highlights - with a glass of Rosé wine (of course). The views from the apartment were lovely and relaxing. Madeira itself is the most beautiful island, the people are so..... nice and you can’t help but feel safe!! The apartment is smack bang in the centre of Funchal, it’s location is absolutely brilliant. There is loads to do here and it’s on your doorstep. We completed a free walking tour of Funchal, did a jeep day out, had afternoon tea at Reid’s Hotel and walked the Lavadas - absolutely the best time!! Stay here you won’t be disappointed!

Clean, smart and very well equipped apartment, which had everything we needed. Petronella was very nice and helpful, and advised about local shopping (big, reasonably-priced supermarket v nearby), etc. Great views from every room and the balcony. Plenty of entertainment watching the boats (reinforcing desire never to set foot on some enormous cruise ship...). We had good weather and a lovely week overall.

Top Lage. Sehr sauber und ordentlich.
Lage und Aussicht top. Zentrum und Hafen praktisch vor der Haustür, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten (Supermarkt, Bäcker) ebenso. Leider war kein Stellplatz für den Mietwagen vorhanden, wir haben unser Auto in der TG vom CR7-Hotel für 10€ für 24 Stunden abgestellt. Nachts sollte man geräuschunempfindlich sein (Verkehr, Nachtschwärmer). Geschlossene Fenster bieten hier leider keinen Vorteil gegenüber geöffneten. Der Empfang war sehr freundlich, Übernahme und Übergabe insgesamt völlig unkompliziert. Insbesondere Urlaubern ohne Auto können wir das Apartment sehr empfehlen.
