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.

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. ##### A H.

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 ##### David T.

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... ;) ##### Uwe R.

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... ##### Isabelle C.

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. ##### Lutz S.

The kitchen is practical and well equipped, the dining table is very nice and there is a fine terrace. The area is mostly quiet, nice with large houses and gardens, quite close to Funchal centre. There are no shops in the nearest area, except a bakery. There is easy to find a parking place, but the streets around are very steep. You walk easily down to the old town in 15 minutes, but back again we preferred a taxi - costs 6-7 euros. The bus No 21 from the centre to Botanic gardens runs somewhat infrequent in the evening. The owner was reliable and provided good service. We will clearly reccommend this apartement, and we well rent it again when we go back to Madeira.' ##### Meg S.

Madeira is a very beautiful and varied island. To recommend special to hike (the Levadas are uniquely) ,to enjoy unique plants, animals and the varied climate. The Contact with the owner went smoothly and the keys were handed over without problems. The problem of the flat is the second bedroom, which is an expanded garage. Since the other garages in the yard are not expanded, there is a lot of traffic noise. Also there is no ventilate properly, because there are only two small dormer windows (see photo). The kitchen is very well equipped, but the cupboards smell very musty. The climb to the apartment turned out to be very stressful, because the apartment is accessible only by steep streets. All in all we enjoyed it very well. ##### Klaus H.

Close to the beautiful old town of Funchal with many excellent restaurants and bars. This apartment is up a very steep hill as is a lot of Funchal, we found the walk down took about 20 minutes but a lot longer to walk up, however there are many Taxis which cost between 4-6 Euros depending on where you get in. The bus stop is just at the end of the street and they seem to be every 20-30 minutes and cost 1.10 Euro. The first trip on the bus costs 1.80 for a bus card that you can then top up in some shops and machines with credits for further journeys which are 1.10 Euro each. We found this a great place to stay as it was a quiet area with all you need just a short distance away such as restaurants, bars and supermarkets. The owner responded to all my emails quickly answering all the little questions I had and has provided an excellent and friendly service. We would love to go back. ##### L4wiSuSM4DtX7GDLuyoQQxqGDlGtZ9oH8xDVHam4ZXciCaE2cnoPm8oVRI4JbWb4x4NzUo7nLYrUGVL0RSf0qjIn+A7/iRM/H4AR L. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pestana Carlton Madeira Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Carlton-Madeira-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h14327.Hotel-Information) > > [Tui Blue Gardens - Adults Only - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Tui-Blue-Gardens-Adults-Only-Savoy-Signature.h1194692.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Madeira Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Melia-Madeira-Mare.h2264070.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Ocean Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Ocean-Bay-Resort.h863866.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Royal All Inclusive Ocean & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Royal-Premium-All-Inclusive-Ocean-Spa-Resort.h487421.Hotel-Information) > > [TURIM Santa Maria Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Turim-Santa-Maria-Hotel.h39013081.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Promenade Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Promenade-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h2864999.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Madeira.h3891890.Hotel-Information) > > [Enotel Lido](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Enotel-Lido.h881176.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana CR7 Funchal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-CR7-Funchal.h15737408.Hotel-Information) > > [The Views Monumental](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Views-Monumental.h918494.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Savoy - Ocean Resort - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Royal-Savoy-Ocean-Resort-Savoy-Signature.h1193965.Hotel-Information) > > [Golden Residence Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Golden-Residence-Hotel.h2130257.Hotel-Information) > > [Barcelo Funchal Oldtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Barcelo-Funchal-Oldtown.h83695546.Hotel-Information) > > [Savoy Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Savoy-Palace-The-Leading-Hotels-Of-The-World-Savoy-Signature.h32089418.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Vila Lido Madeira Ocean Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Palms-Ocean-Aparthotel.h862912.Hotel-Information) > > [Suite Hotel Eden Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Suite-Hotel-Eden-Mar.h527443.Hotel-Information) > > [Allegro Madeira - Adults Only - Member of Barceló Hotel Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Allegro-Madeira-Adults-Only.h1548302.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Casino Park Ocean and SPA Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Casino-Park-Ocean-And-SPA-Hotel.h14349.Hotel-Information) > > [Vidamar Resort Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Vidamar-Resort-Madeira-Dining-Around.h519967.Hotel-Information) > > [Porto Mare Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Porto-Mare-Hotel.h1058018.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cliff Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Cliff-Bay.h190859.Hotel-Information) > > [Enotel Magnólia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Enotel-Magnolia.h874159.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Alto Lido](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Alto-Lido.h1413064.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence at Vila Porto Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-The-Residence-At-Vila-Porto-Mare.h8034952.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Grand Premium Ocean Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Grand-Premium-Ocean-Resort.h1052356.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Girassol - Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Girassol.h2335234.Hotel-Information) > > [Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Reids-Palace.h11185.Hotel-Information) > > [Madeira Regency Cliff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Madeira-Regency-Cliff.h905328.Hotel-Information) > > [Muthu Raga Madeira Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Muthu-Raga-Madeira-Hotel.h2130258.Hotel-Information)
