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.

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.

It’s around a 40 minute walk into Funchal but there’s a bus stop a 5 minute walk, taxis back are around €9 which is definitely worth it as I wouldn’t want to walk back up that hill! There’s a supermarket & shops around a 10 minute walk. Funchal was amazing over Christmas with spectacular lights and a lovely atmosphere. The only minor downside to the house is the road noise, but with the windows closed you can hardly hear it and it wouldn’t put us off staying here again. Thank you for a fantastic holiday! ##### Vanessa H.

Petronella took good care of ! Love it ! We had a wonderful stay in Casa Petronella. We celebrate my birthday and was 8 adults and 4 children ( 8, 6, 3 and 0 years old).Lots of space and a lovely pool. We get it heat to 26 degrees because it was in february and it was nice and the children could stay very long in the pool. Close to Funchal and beatyful in the evening with all lights on the mountain. We Rent cars and that is nesseserly if you dont want to walk long. Petronella was very helpfull and Madeira amazing. Want to come back soon ##### Karin E. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Liv J. 6 Nov 2018 #### Vi var 14 stk i huset, 7 voksne og 7 barn. Romfordelingen ble vanskelig for oss, da det ene soverommet lå ved siden av rommet med biljardbordet. Der måtte vi lage en kriseløsning som fungerte OK for oss. Vi trivdes godt i huset, ungene storkoste seg i bassenget. Trafikken fra hovedveien hørte vi kun når vi sto ved enden av gjerdet. Bra shoppingsenter som ligger ca 15 minutter fra huset. ##### Liv J. Stayed 9 nights in Jun 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Lene S. 21 Oct 2018 #### Great villa, great survice We were 10 familymembers from the age of 9-72. Everyone had a great time in villa Petronella. We used the transfer service and the driver had arranged for Petronella to be there when we arrived. It was worth the prize. The heated pool was worth every euro. The kids spent hours in there enjoying themselves. We also used the car hire arranged by ourmadeira. Great service from them too. The only thing for some of us was that the matresses are very hard and my back was a bit sore every morning. But apart from that, our 12 night stay was wonderful:) ##### Lene S. Stayed 12 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David M., Arbroath 3 Sept 2018 #### Did what it said on the box, awesome well equipped villa , easy access to Funchal , car recommended. Lovely Villa with everything you need, BBQ was a bit fiddly to light and keep burning initially. ##### David M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Christopher B. 4 May 2018 #### Great villa 8 of us (4 adults and 4 children) just spent a week in Casa Petronella. We had a great time, the villa is very clean and well appointed and has pretty much everything you need. Petronella welcomed us on arrival and showed us round. She was very welcoming and had a lot of information about the villa and the local area. She also told us to call her anytime if we needed anything. The villa is a little way out of the centre of Funchal which is a 30 min max walk (we didn’t hire a car), but it’s all down hill and gives you a chance to see and appreciate the local area. We never attempted to walk back up as there are loads of cabs which cost about €10 (however most cab drivers didn’t seem to know where the villa was so make sure you know the address). There is a great supermarket less than 10min walk which has everything you need, they have a great bakery and butchers and everything is reasonably price. Overall we had a lovely stay, the villa is in a lovely quiet location with stunning views and don’t be put off with it being near the main road as you cannot hear it. I would recommend this villa to any groups looking for an out of town relaxing location and a good base to explore the beautiful island. ##### Christopher B.

Took us a while to figure out the bus roots but once we got the hang off it was very easy. We would like to thank Petronella as she was very helpful.Mandy & Family ##### Mandy B.

The property is really large and spacious and really great for large groups. The kitchen is well equipped and it even has a large utility. It was very clean and the living area really is spectacular. The pool is lovely but we are glad we paid extra to have it heated as it definitely needs to be. The things we liked about this house was the space, the pool, the upstairs terrace was beautiful in the morning as you get the sunrise. It was very convenient for the supermarket and a few small bars, no restaurants near by though. The owner was brilliant, she stayed in touch and kept us informed of the mid stay bed and towel change and anything we asked for she sorted out. She couldn't have been more helpful. The views over Funchal are beautiful and it is close to the expressway so we could get other places very easily although a car is essential because although there are buses we found them to be erratic and the stop in to Funchal is a bit of a walk away probably a good 10 mins and there is no info in the villa for local buses or amenities. A few downsides to the house are that there is no heating or air conditioning. We really could have done with some heating in the bedrooms at night although there is a lovely open fire in the lounge and we were given plenty of wood for it. We found the bathrooms to be a little tired they could really do with a refurb. Also the beds were very hard, my husband ended up sleeping on the sofa. The basement area with a bedroom and games room we felt was almost unusable as there was an awful smell down there we assume the drains. There is some noise from the expressway as it is very near by and as its a residential area there were a lot of coming and goings at the side of the house which could be quite noisy. Also be aware that in November we lost the sun in the garden by about 4.30 so you don't get any evening sun. However saying all that we felt that for the money we paid it was very good value for money and I would stay there again. ##### Melanie B.
