Ground floor spacious apartment near the old town of Funchal

Spacious and cozy apartment (over 100m2), located in a quiet residential area, close to Funchal's Old Town. It is the ideal place to discover Madeira: visit the center of Funchal on foot (it is a 15-minute walk to the Farmers' Market), drive to discover the Island (free parking available) or simply relax and sunbathe on the loungers in the apartment’s private garden.
Completely renovated, redecorated and re-equipped in March 2019.

The 2 bedroom apartment is all on the ground floor, with a private outside space facing South. Fully equipped to comfortably accommodate 5 people (up to a maximum of 7 people). In the solarium/garden you can sunbathe and take meals, enjoying some views of the bay and mountains of Funchal.

The host lives very close to the apartment and usually will be always available to greet guests and provide all information about the apartment and the surrounding area.

All information regarding arrival, routes and other data will be communicated to the guests as soon as they complete the reservation. You will be given an ideal route from the airport to the parking lot just in front of the apartment. And it will be arranged a time for personal key delivery.
The host (or a person of his trust) will always be available in case of an emergency, by phone contact or email.

The neighborhood was formerly an old Madeiran large villa that was later transformed into a residential area of villas and townhouses. It is a quiet area, dedicated only to private housing, the streets lined with walks overlooking the bay and the mountains of Funchal, and ample parking.

Public transportation (orange buses n.31 and 31A) pass at 100m from the apartment, on Caminho do Palheiro street, to the center of Funchal, and to the Botanical Garden.
You can also easily walk down to the Old Town and the Farmers' Market (about 10-15 min on foot).
There is always free public parking available, just in front of the apartment, across the street.
During your stay at this apartment building, you're just a quick walk from Civic Center of Santa Maria Maior. You'll find features such as a water park. The apartment includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.
  • The apartment offers a kitchen, a washing machine and 2 bathrooms
  • Free WiFi
  • Splash around at the water park
  • Just a 3-minute drive from Funchal Farmers Market and a few minutes from CR7 Museum

Immersive experience
My friend and I received excellent instructions from the host on how to locate the property. The property is about 30 minutes from the airport in Old Town. It is up a very steep hill that’s great for exercise enthusiasts. My friend and I walked 30 minutes into town daily but we took the 5 minute bus ride back. One issue we had was the island temperature was hot with high humidity and the host did not provide fans. We could have opened the patio door but I saw geckos and decided against that idea. Another issue we had was one the first day there we walked into town but we were unable to find our way back. Of course, it was our fault for not taking photos of the road signs. However, we tried phoning the host and was sent immediately to voicemail. To make matters worse my phone wifi wasn’t working. Fortunately, we were able to go into a bar and use the wifi to find our way back.

Value for Money.
Do not be put off by the negative comments re the bus service.Two buses 31 and 31A have stops just down the road level with the property.There is also a 34 which drops you off further up the hill leaving just a gentle down hill stroll to the property. A further 4 services drop you off near the bakery and shop which OK is a uphill walk to the property but only takes 10 minutes and once you find the pedestrian stairs is OK

Quartier avec des chiens qui aboient souvent, une des chambres est située dans un ancien garage( donc bruyant et très écho le matin). L’hôte était très aimable et avenant.

Ruhig gelegen und geräumig
Die sehr geräumige Wohnung für bis zu 4 Personen liegt etwas abseits der Innenstadt in einem ruhigen Villenvorort. Mit dem Bus, der ca 100 m vom Haus entfernt hält, kommt man gut und günstig in und aus der City. Für den kleinen Einkauf ist ca 10 Minuten zu Fuß ein kleiner Supermarkt und ein Bäcker zu finden. Die Höhenunterschiede sind, wie fast überall auf Madeira auch hier zu beachten... ;)

Génial
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cet appartement et dans l'île. C'était assez sportif car le pays n'est pas plat mais on en garde de très bons souvenirs. Le soleil n'était toujours pas au rendez-vous, néanmoins nous avons bien profité de tous ces magnifiques paysages, les montagnes, la mer, la végétation luxuriante...

Gute ruhige Lage
Die Wohnung ist in einer ruhigen Lage oberhalb der Altstadt Funchal. Die ist über eine sehr steile Straße kurzfristig zu erreichen; der Rückweg ist sehr anstrengend (Alternative: Bushaltestelle nach ein paar Metern). Die Terrasse ist zum Essen und zum Sonnen schön (Südlage). Die Ausstattung ist spartanisch, doch uns hat hier nichts lebensnotwendige gefehlt. Wir haben beim Kochen häufig improvisiert. Kritik: Die Küchenausstattung ist unter allen Ansprüchen: drei Tassen für eine Wohnung mit sieben Schlafplätzen. Sehr zusammengewürfelt und nach Verlust nicht ergänzt. Hier sollte auf alle Fälle nachgebessert werden. Ansonsten war es ein toller Urlaub in dieser Wohnung.
