Super well equipped - all the kitchen stuff you could need, loads of towels including tea towels and beach towels which were really handy. Close to city centre, a couple of cafes and shops nearby too. Two balconies and the top one with views to die for. Perfect for watching sunrise with the blackbirds singing all around. And the hosts are absolutely brilliant - friendly, available, great communication throughout. Such a brilliant option for Madeira and all for a very competitive price. We were so happy with our choice. Thanks Aldina

Our stay in this apartment in Funchal was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Despite our flight being delayed, we didn’t arrive until around 3am, and the host could not have been more accommodating—waiting up to greet us with a warm welcome and making sure we were settled in comfortably. That level of care really set the tone for the whole trip. The apartment itself was excellent—clean, spacious, and full of charm. We especially loved the unique touches, like the old working sewing machine, which our daughter found fascinating and spent time exploring. It gave the place a real sense of character that you don’t often find. One of the highlights was the beautiful top balcony. The views were stunning, and it quickly became our favourite spot to sit and enjoy breakfast each morning in the sunshine. It felt peaceful while still being right in the heart of everything. The location was perfect, with easy access to all the amenities—Old Town, shops, restaurants, and everything we needed was just a short walk away. It made exploring Funchal incredibly convenient. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. A wonderful host, a lovely apartment, and a perfect location—highly recommended and we would absolutely stay here again.

Convenient property & great host

Our host João was very kind and helpful. The property was very good and was as described in the listing. It included all the facilities that we needed and was located a 10 minute walk away from Central Funchal. All in all it served as a lovely base to explore the rest of Madeira from.

We were so positively surprised! The place is great. Close to the city centre and easy to find free parking nearby :)) But the view... We spent so much time just looking at the sea from the top balcony 😍 Highly recommend:))!!

A month in Madeira

The location of the property is excellent. Close to many points of interest and an exceptional view from the upper balcony. We stayed for 4 weeks, so the proximity to local cafes and small grocery stores was very helpful. The major shopping area and large grocery store was 15.minutes walk. The hill to the centre of town is steep, but we were prepared for that. Madeira is beautiful and Funchal is a fascinating town to explore. This property was a perfect base for that.

Nice stay

The place is up a hill, and there are some noises, but all in all it was very nice to stay there. Two stages and balconies. Seperatet rooms. Nice ambience and a great view over Funchal. The kitchen has everything you need (the oven could be places better, but it worked for cooking).

Good neighborhood.

Good location, it is up a hill, but thats all Madeira. We drove and found it easy. Nice local cafe a few houses up. If you exit the front and go straight around the building in front there is a small grocery store. Cafes safari. Have a steak sandwich.

Good place for visiting Madeira!

The flat is nice and spacious, located in a very convenient spot on Madeira for getting around the island by car. Aldina's son, João, was extremely kind to us and also recommended good restaurants. The only downside was that the flat was rather minimally equipped. Toiletries and toilet paper would be very useful on the arrival.

Overall, we were very happy

Overall we loved the our stay. A quick walk to the harbor with an amazing view, and easy to drive to and park. It was exactly what we were looking for. The hosts were friendly and accommodating. Make sure to read other reviews as there were a few little things that others have commented on that may have affected our experience had we not been prepared. With an extra roll of TP, some salt and pepper, and maybe another pillow and blanket we would stay here again.

Funchal stay

The apartment is well equiped, with good kitchen facilties and bedroom storage.The 2 outside balconies are well furnished and very useful - good place for drying wet things on first, great views from the top. We had diiner there a few times.The area is mostly very quiet, with the exception of the morning peak traffic and the barkiing dogs. The dogs barked at passersby and when we went onto the lower balcony. They also barked a few times at night, disturbing the whole neightbourhood. I'm a very light sleeper, my husband slept through most of it. There are dogs the world over.the location is very good, about 10 minutes walk down to town, very steep coming back up. there is a bus stop just yards from the front door. Parking is OK but avoid school pick up time around 5pm. Joao was very helpful and provided lots of information.A good place to stay.

Great space and location, but…

Good location within walking distance to many restaurants and attractions. Note for accessibility: it’s a very steep walk up and down the hill to the place (the host warned us about this, which was appreciated). However, the elevation provides a beautiful view of Funchal from the balcony! A few more things to note: There was no soap to do dishes or laundry (even though there is a laundry machine, so we were unable to use these amenities despite planning our packing around this). We let the host’s son, who we were communicating with, know and he apologized for forgetting, but didn’t offer to bring us any. One night, after having left dishes in the sink for the day while we were out, we came back to quite a few bugs around. Some harder to deal with than others. Since we couldn’t do the dishes, we left them (and all food) in the fridge to avoid attracting more bugs during our stay. There was a small dog (chihuahua) downstairs and a few big dogs next door that would bark at all hours and often in the middle of the night for extended periods of time. We had read this on previous reviews, but didn’t think it would bother us. We had our sleep impacted by this, even during the nights we could close the doors (cool enough). Take this into consideration if you are considering this spot. Very basic kitchen for cooking - no oil, condiments, etc. Overall, we enjoyed the location and the amenities, and our general rating reflects this.

We had a very relaxing stay and our host was fantastic. It was our first visit to Madeira. We loved the balcony view - very picturesque with great views of the town and the sea. There was a fully stocked nespresso machine in the kitchen which was a nice touch and our host was very informative on where to eat and places to see. It was great to have beach towels provided. Overall a lovely stay.
