Accueil exceptionnel
Très bonne adresse pour un séjour à Madère. L'appartement se situe au calme sur les hauteurs de Funchal. La résidence est confortable et très bien tenue par Joel et son fils Bruno. Ils prennent tous deux le temps de donner de précieux conseils pour les visites, les randonnées, les restaurants. Ils sont vraiment à l'écoute de leur clientèle et très attentionnés.

Old, ugly, uncomfortable
I am surprised at the good reviews. What I can say is they gave me the money back. But it was supposed to be tempurpedic, the bed was so uncomfortable. The tv was like 13". The view was not great at all and the furniture was about 50 years old. We changed hotels.

Joel och Bruno Alves gör allt för att deras gäster skall trivas. Och det gör man! De har fattat vad Service innebär. Det mesta är bra med boendet dock 3 km till centrala Funchal och backigt värre hem. Å andra sidan går bussen nästan fram till huset. Sammanfattningsvis - Mycket bra boende.

Une adresse à retenir
Nous terminons un séjour d'une semaine dans cet apparthôtel. Nous sommes enchantés de notre choix car nous avons été reçus "royalement" par le propriétaire Joël et son fils Bruno. Ils sont plein d'attentions pour leurs clients : corbeille de fruits à l'arrivée et pain frais tous les matins derrière notre porte. Ils sont également présents pour nous conseiller sur le choix des visites en fonction de la météo. L'emplacement de la Vila Marta est idéal car central au sud de l'île (rien n'est loin : 10 minutes en voiture du centre ville de Funchal), parking devant l’hôtel gratuit et appartement donnant sur la mer. Appartement avec kitchenette bien équipée, pratique pour faire des repas sur le balcon. Si nous revenons à Madère, nous y reviendrons certainement.

Super séjour!!
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour à l'hôtel Villa Marta. L'emplacement de l'hôtel est idéal pour visiter l'ile L'hôtel était très propre et calme . Nous avons surtout apprécié les conseils du propriétaire et son fils qui tous les matins prenaient au moins 1/.4 d'heure pour organiser avec nous notre journée de randonnées ou visites. Grâce à eux nous avons découvert de très bons restaurants.

Perfect
My partner and I stayed at Vila Marta for ten nights in a very quiet apartment.Everything was of a high standard and excellent value for money.We cannot praise the owners (Joel and Bruno) enough for their hospitality.We really appreciated the free fresh bread delivered to our room each morning.We also really appreciated the very friendly,personal service which was always available.As we both really enjoyed Madeira in general, we may return and if so would return to Vila Marta.We highly reccommend it.

Comfortable Characteristic Apartment with Seaview
We had a wonderful stay thanks to the hospitality of Joel, the owner, who went out of his way to help us enjoy our stay, whether it be for directions, a lift to the bus stop, bus timetables, whatever we needed, he was ready to help. He also provided us with fresh bread rolls every morning along with fresh fruit on arrival, very welcoming and the room was comfortable and spotless. Would recommend Vila Marta to anyone!

Fantastic, friendly, family-run Apartment complex
The Vila Marta is a great, small, family-run apartment complex on the edge of Funchal in Sao Martinho. The apartments are located on a quiet side-street, however the street is halfway up a steep hill (as with most places in Madeira!) and restaurants and shops are therefore a fair walk away. So, it's extremely handy to have access to a hire car if staying here. Yes, you could use the buses, but a hire car makes life a lot easier!! All the apartments have a balcony with sea views. The rooms are well equipped with a small kitchen area, good sized bathroom, and a bedroom / sitting room separated by a low dividing wall. The rooms are cleaned daily and are spotless and comfortable. The owners provide fresh bread buns every morning to your door which are included in the cost. The local Continente supermarket, a five minute drive away, provides everything else you may need. Bruno and his father are great guys - very helpful and will check the weather for you everyday to make sure that you head to the best part of the island. Nothing is too much trouble for either of them, and you really do feel a part of the family.

The best service. The best!
4 days on Madeira in late Jan. of 16. Service started before I got out of my car. Owner ,(Joel) is a gentleman & knows how to fill any need any time.If Joel is away, son Bruno is there. Another gentleman; shows you what (you) want to see & how to get there. An island map is provided. Suggested what I might want to do each day. Father or son check current & forecasted weather on the part(s) of the island I may want to visit. A best route is discussed. Then, enter some locations in Google Maps & go. (Compare this service to getting your dinner menu at a fine restaurant & having the owner come help you pic which special is best for you. Every day!) 8 minute walk to small market or do laundry. They will send it out for you. If you want to eat in an amazing restaurant; just tell Joel or Bruno a time. The restaurant staff pick you up & bring you back; free. It is close & affordable. Be hungry. Solo trip to the Azores and Madeira for adventure. Villa Marta and Madeira are on my "visit twice list". My wife will accompany me on return trip to relax. We will stay at "Joel's place". PS: Thanks again for Madrira wine lessons...

Great hotel, Amazing price
What can we say about Bruno? This hotel was such a unique experience. Bruno took amazing care of us. On the first day he even drove us to Funchal, pointing out many places of interest, bus stops and great places to eat. The service at this hotel is truly unlike any other. You feel completely supported by Bruno who ensures that you get the most out of your stay. The complimentary bread rolls in the morning and the madeira cake gift were above and beyond what we expected. The hotel is also in a great location, the bus stop to Funchal is just around the corner and takes only 20 minutes. The area also has quite a few nice places to eat and a great supermarket around the corner for all those who are planning on making the most out of the self catered apartments. The view of the ocean from the balcony was also very beautiful.
